Synopsis

Bike Tech Wizard, Olympic medallist, and track World Champion, Rob Hayles, takes a nostalgic look at the most innovative era ever in bicycle design. A technical revolution that began in the mid 80s and gathered steam through to the mid 90s made bikes faster, lighter, and much easier to ride than ever before. Rob takes a close look at the specific elements of the bike that changed, and finds out why it all came to a sudden stop in 1996. Legendary riders who found themselves part of this aero arms race; Greg LeMond, Phil Anderson, Sean Kelly, Giovanni Battaglin, and Pippa York share their memories about a period which transformed cycling forever.
