In this week's GMBN Dirt Shed Show, Martyn Ashton is joined by Rich Payne to ask the question, will the future of mountain bike tech be subscription-based? Martyn’s been obsessed with Tesla lately and thinks the bike industry might start to charge subscriptions. With more and more electronic mtb tech he thinks hardware can be built and later improved with software subscriptions, similar to Tesla’s self-driving capability subscription! 

Plus MTB News, Sickest Thing, Hacks And Bodges, Caption Contest, and Hacks And Bodges, plus some Super Nice bikes locked away in the Bike Vault!⁠
