In this episode of the BikeRadar Podcast, deputy editor Jack Luke is joined by senior technical writer Simon von Bromley to discuss the latest developments in road tech.

The pair share details on the new ENVE Fray and BMC Roadmachine, both endurance road bikes with an all-road twist, and question whether all-road bikes can perform the double duty of on- and off-road riding.

Simon reveals how Campagnolo's HPPM power meter took us by surprise and we ponder what Shimano's new Essa 8-speed 1x groupset could mean for budget road bikes.
