Alex Wild returns to the podcast to reveal his setup for Unbound 200 — one of the toughest gravel races on the calendar. This isn’t just a gear list; it’s a detailed look at the decisions that help riders go fast — not just finish — over 200 miles of rugged Kansas terrain. And this year Alex is breaking gravel rules. From tyre pressure and drivetrain choice to fuelling, hydration, and kit, Alex explains the reasoning behind every part of his build. We also dig into debates like 1x vs 2x, aero vs comfort, and the mental strategies needed to stay focused deep into the race. Whether you're racing Unbound or just curious how elite riders prepare, this is a practical, honest breakdown from someone who’s done it at the sharp end.
