NEW Olympic Track Bike! | Behind The Scenes With Hope Tech & Lotus Engineering

In a nod to the iconic Olympic gold medal-winning bike ridden by Chris Boardman in 1992, British Cycling can today reveal the cutting-edge bike that Great Britain’s track squad will ride at the 2020 Olympics.

Collaboratively developed by component manufacturer Hope Technology, and recognised automotive consultancy Lotus Engineering with the help of engineering giant Renishaw work on the new bike has been taking place in all corners of the country. This includes wind tunnel testing in Southampton, to further refinement and production of the bike in Gloucestershire, East Anglia and Lancashire. British riders have just begun putting it through its paces at British Cycling’s base at the HSBC UK National Cycling Centre in Manchester.

Speakers: Tony Purnell (Head of Technology, Great Britain Cycling Team), Jason Kenny (Great Britain Cycling Team) and Ed Clancy (Great Britain Cycling Team).
