Buying a bike can be quite a big investment for many of us, and because of that we might turn to bike reviews to make sure we invest in the right one!
But are those reviews genuine?
Are they personal to the reviewer?
Do brands make one-off bikes for reviewers to gain a positive feedback?
In this edition of the GCN Tech Show, Alex and Si discuss how bike reviews could be ruining your decision to buy the right bike based on your requirements!
