What Tech Could You Not Live Without? | GMBN Tech Show Ep. 3

A lot has happened in the world of mountain bike tech this week! With new wheels, new carbon frames, new industry standards and new factory rides for freeriders! We also want to know which mountain bike technology you couldn't live without? We definitely take our bikes and our tech for granted, so it's definitely a puzzler!

We're looking back through the comments you've been leaving this week and looking further into which frame you'd like Doddy to start with for the basis of his build.

Thank you so much for all of your comments, emails, submissions, content and feedback so far! It's been an overwhelming response and we're working hard to use/reply to as much as we can!

Brought to you by the world’s largest mountain bike channel, the Global Mountain Bike Network (GMBN), GMBN Tech goes deeper into the bikes, kit and technology stories that help fuel your rides.

Our mission is to help you discover, dial-in and get the best from the latest cutting edge bikes and technology available.

With news and rumours, first ride exclusives, how-tos, the weekly GMBN Tech Show wrapping up and showcasing the week’s biggest tech stories, and more besides, if it’s off-road tech, it’s in.

Every week, of every month we seek out, showcase, and ride the newest gear and innovations from across the globe in an authoritative, inspiring and entertaining way to help you get the best from your rides. And when we’re not riding, we get geeky in an accessible, easy-to-understand way about forks. And shocks. And more to help you setup and maintain your bikes perfectly.

Engage with us every week on the channel and across social media – we’re here to answer every question you’ve got on mountain biking tech.

Some great news Doddy...and those retro bikes 😍

[ltrtg]

SLX groupsets are made by Shimano not Sram.

[kylemose-baker]

Can't wait for the presenter budget bike build challenge!!!

[scottlstone]

Disc Brakes is the biggest innovation I couldn’t now live without. However I wouldn’t want to live without any of those options

[knobblyknob]

Riders can't always find the GMBN "learn to whip time", but there's always a spare half hour to work on your bike. Nice Channel Doddy, hair is on point as always.

[Carecovzki]

Whoa Doddy you're almost stealing me the dirtshed show!! Those guys can ride a bike like gods but what it comes to tech, YOU ARE THE MAN! You should play the onion game with them in your tech shed.... haha!

[willian.direction]

Thanks Doddy 40c here today so been out on MTB 5.30 this morning and now relaxing over breakfast and GMBN tech makes my day.

[sambott]

coming from motorcross i dont mind the hand guards because im used to them, as they all come with hand guards and they also can prevent a lot of damage

[jenswwefan]

I voted for the Disc brakes for safety but it was a close one with suspension

[fathernojoy]

Doddy, 157 is exactly why I have not jumped to 148. I have been waiting for things to settle out. #wewillsee

[andrewturns]

Love the retro bikes segment and especially Doddy's knowledge of the history. Keep it coming 🤘

[rony_ftw]

Loving GMBN Tech so much, this is my main mtb channel. 10/10 would watch again.


who wants GMBN and chill?

[fuzzynod]

For the guy looking for flat pedal shoes with more heel and toe grip/tread the latest Shimano flat pedal shoes GR900 have the new super sticky Michelin rubber and proper walking tread on the heel and toe.
Plus a waterproof flap Over the laces.
Great show this week too 👍🏻😊

[mitchwarren]

I can't live without my GMBN shirt ! It makes me go faster!

[sparky]

Doddy, fair play mate you are all over the tech. Awesome vid.

[ekodevil]

Thanks fat bike, you made me a full rigid rider!

[jorgenfajersson]

I just want to say you are doing a superjob! Really like the Tech show!

[williamdeming]

Would have to be disc brakes for me, keep up the great work Doddy and crew!

If you are building your own bike cave as you say. You should do a series of videos about building it. As well as different ideas we could use for ours
