There’s a lot of advice out there for cyclists, but not all of it is GOOD advice. Some of it could actually hinder your progress! So Conor is here to tell you the bad advice, you don't need to weigh less to go faster and you don't need to slam your stem! ❌

0:25 - Weigh less, go faster 
1:35 - High pressure is faster
2:28 - Slam your stem 
2:59 - Copying others
3:33 - Harden up
4:35 - Different ride, different bike
