In this week’s episode of the BikeRadar podcast, Jack and Simon cover the news that Shimano faces an $11.5m penalty to the US Consumer Product Safety Commission, over its handling of crankset failures between 2013 and 2022. After a quick refresh on the topic, the duo discuss whether this is the end of the story, and whether Shimano’s reputation has been damaged by its belated recall. For our rant of the week, Jack tackles an Instagram sketch targeting bike mechanics, by comedian Dave Durkin. Unfortunately for those in the bike industry, it hits uncomfortably close to home. Lastly, Jack and Simon take a look back at the top story on BikeRadar last week – an excellent feature from colleague Warren Rossiter, on titanium’s resurgence in popularity as a material for bike frames. 00:00 Intro 01:13 Shimano agrees to pay $11.5m penalty over crankset failures 14:19 Rant of the week 22:21 Last week's top story Listen to the BikeRadar Podcast 👉 https://www.bikeradar.com/bikeradar-podcast/ Follow BikeRadar on our social media channels: 👉 https://instagram.com/bikeradar 👉 https://facebook.com/bikeradar 👉 https://twitter.com/bikeradar BikeRadar is supported by Mountain Biking UK and Cycling Plus Magazine –For more information and to subscribe please visit 👉 https://bit.ly/3nMr3Rn For more content like this see our latest subscription offer – 👉 https://www.cyclingplus.com/subscribe-today/ 👉 https://www.mbuk.com/subscribe-today/
