Tom Marvin, Rob Weaver and Luke Marshall discuss the toughest tech to test
We’re lucky to have access to the newest and shiniest bike tech on the market, but testing these products isn’t always plain sailing.
In our latest podcast, our mountain bike tech team of Tom Marvin, Rob Weaver and Luke Marshall highlight the trickiest products to review.
Some are difficult to put through their paces, many cause infuriating levels of setup hassle and others involve a lot of background work to ensure our reviews are as clear and accurate as can be.
The tech team also share their insights on how we conduct group tests and standalone reviews, and give a glimpse behind the scenes at how we plan our Bike of the Year awards.
Accuracy is a key principle of our reviews, with the team disclosing many of the techniques they’ve developed to keep their testing fair and repeatable.
