It's already August, we've already had the Tour de France and Tour de France Femmes with a slew of tech trends, from the final nail in the coffin for rim brakes and a much more dominant showing from tubeless, and the weather in the U.K. is already turning grim again after our annual four days of sunshine.

July also saw us head to Eurobike for a mega tech roundup, and try and answer that tricky question of which upgrades give you the most bang for your buck.

Will joined the Cyclingnews team as a reviews writer in 2022, having previously written for Cyclist, BikeRadar and Advntr. He’s tried his hand at most cycling disciplines, from the standard mix of road, gravel, and mountain bike, to the more unusual like bike polo and tracklocross. He’s made his own bike frames, covered tech news from the biggest races on the planet, and published countless premium galleries thanks to his excellent photographic eye. Also, given he doesn’t ever ride indoors he’s become a real expert on foul-weather riding gear. His collection of bikes is a real smorgasbord, with everything from vintage-style steel tourers through to superlight flat bar hill climb machines.
