Said to be the lightest road bike in the world, this baby has made it into the top 10 tech developments of the past year (at €8,000). It's the new Trek Emonda.
We all love to check out the latest shiny new bikes and components.
And that’s especially the case for those items at the top price points and those bits and pieces that have featured in the media but have not yet been launched.
It makes them seem more exclusive which means we want them even more.
The clip below takes us through 10 of the coolest tech developments over the past year or so.
Included in here are:
- Canyon Aeroad - a seriously quick bike for less than €4,000.
- Shimano hydraulic discs for mechanical groupsets.
- Trek Emonda - claims to be the lightest production bike in the world.
- New look Campagnolo – the latest groupset release.
- Colnago C60 – it’s Italian so it looks very stylish.
- Aero and vented helmets – they make you go faster and now keep you a bit cooler.
- Bontrager flash charger floor pump – designed for tubeless tyres.
- SRAM wireless – not a new concept but it looks like it will work where Mavic failed.
- Shimano 105 – a lower price point, really good groupset.
- Speedplay pave pedals – eight years of testing by the pros has resulted in the smallest pedal ever.
