Genius Inventor or Crazy Engineer? - JOSH LEECH | THE UNIT - Ep#72 The Shin Dig Podcast

Описание: This episode of the Shin Dig Podcast takes us somewhere new - and introduces us to one of the most inventive minds in Bike Trials.

We’re recording at The Unit, a brand-new indoor riding location that’s just opened its doors, and we’re joined by Josh Leech - an engineer, inventor, and all-round problem solver for Trials. From hand-welded parts to carbon builds, Josh isn’t afraid to make (or remake) anything if it pushes riding forward.

Alongside a special host appearance from OG Shinner Tom the Taxi Driver, we talk about Josh’s engineering projects, how ideas turn into real-world Trials builds, and what makes The Unit such an important new space for the community.

It’s a relaxed, honest conversation - part engineering chat, part Trials culture, and part chaos - exactly how Shin Dig does it.

The Unit is available to ride NOW.
If you care about Bike Trials, building things properly, and the people quietly shaping the scene, this one’s for you.
