    A crime against cycling fashion has been committed...Visma Lease A Bike's new aero TT helmet has landed from outer space! Is this cycling helmet taking aerodynamics too far? In cycling shorts, Canyon has released a new e-bike, and pro bikes have got heavier...and FASTER?!

    eBikes are gaining popularity, but what is preventing further uptake? Si thinks he has the answer. e-Bikes are just too slow. Should the speed limit be changed to match those in the US? Or is this too dangerous? In other news, the Visma Lease-A-Bike team have been greedy, hogging 6 race wins over the weekend and a police operation saw a bike theft gang put behind (handle)bars.
