193: How Much Speed Can Be Bought? With Ben Delaney

We’re joined by our friend and colleague Ben Delaney who has spent decades riding and reviewing countless bikes and pieces of gear for VeloNews and BikeRadar, as well as time in the industry with Specialized. He takes us through his tiered hierarchy of options when it comes to spending your way to a faster you. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
