More from The Nero Show
After riding the Enve Melee V2 for the last 6 weeks, Jesse breaks it down with a full review. How does it compare to the other bikes he has ridden this year, like the Giant Propel, Incolor SSR and Tavelo Grow? We also chat through where we both stand on wide tyres like the Continental GP5000 35mm at the moment.
You can finally buy Tadej Pogačar's wheels as ENVE launch the SES Pro 6.7, we break down the specs before riding them. The best edition of the Gravel World Championships took place over the weekend, we take another look at the sprint finish. Chris however wasn't in Nannup, we find out what happened as well as deep diving his heat training protocol.
Hambini seems to have embraced the modern disc brake road bike, Jesse cuts up bib short chamois to break down what makes a comfortable pair, Shimano clap back about their new pedal system and Silca's tyres are tested ... do they live up to their own expectations?
Do you care if someone is secretly filming your butt with AI glasses on your next ride? Shimano make weird changed to their pedal system, Zwift lock your watts, NZ Cyclists complain about paying their own way at Worlds, and Chris gives a Masters National Champs recap after his road race win.
Enve update the Melee with a spec list clearly aiming at competing with Specialized SL9; lighter, stiffer, faster ... but at what cost? A cycling coach horror story has us discussing what makes a good coach in 2026, and what are the red flags to watch out for.
