So, we've interviewed him in a bike cafe, and now we interview him in the studio as well.

Hmmm.

NASTY!

So save £6000 & buy the Specialized? This isn't any old bike this is an M&S bike...

& how boring are the studio guests...

Next we're going to suck all the fun out of downhill mountain biking & see how boring we can make it look...

Well the Specialized/Pinarello [s]advert[/s] err... "review" was a mess so I am willing to bet the DH bit will be inept too

Perhaps just talking about bikes is dull and this is how [s]we[/s] you look to the real world 😉

I would like a Specialized Venge, but in black.
It's comforting to know from that in-depth review, that it's definitely.... fast...

So some random member of the public has put together a little video, with no budget, how come it's ended up being the most interesting part of the program...

OK, Show saved by the C2W guy, that was good, honest, and genuine.

But I've been a bit mean about the bike test, seriously, one is better than the other, even if its for one reason, and worse for another. Lazy cop out right there. But the format of the show feels tidier, less rushed and more considered.

C2w bloke probably most accurate reflection of average persons motivation and reason too cycle?

I agree, and I liked the C2W plug.
it spoke to me about why I love cycling. it's about mental and physical health.
now, who wants a hug?

Rubbish last year, so far rubbish his year. I'm only watching it to see how much more rubbish it gets.

They spent longer reviewing a NINE THOUSAND POUND road bike than a summary of the entire sport of downhill racing?

I'm guessing not one person involved in the show has ever actually picked up a successful cycling magazine.
