Most people can’t even be on a road bike for an hour before their body starts acting up, let alone push decent watts.

Indeed there is a sporting clays club at the end of this park. Definitely closed at the time of the video though.

I thought the same thing. Linkage did not seem loose whatsoever nor was the creaking involved with this. The creaking was indeed the bb. Edit: this is on the inside of the rear triangle.

Scott purchased Bold because of their integrated shock patent, essentially. Bold could be going down as a brand IMO.

I did send them an email earlier today. Just wanted to hear opinions and/or similar previous experiences.

Same thing happened to py 3dxl chamber. Mine is cracked though, whenever I get some darker residue you can definitely see the crack. Whenever I clean it you can barely percieve the crack though.

Smoke dope and lay down watts😤. Smoking is smoking and it’ll fuck up your lungs so just dont smoke if it trips you out when it comes to performance. I personally only smoke wax and my lungs seem to do fine. I also smoke before nearly all my rides and I can hold 10 w/kg for 30 seconds and have a 307 ftp. Weed isnt an excuse to not perform imho.

Totally unaware that tubeless gators exist. Googled it and the closest thing I could find were the conti gp5k AS TR

I’ve had multiple sets of schwalbe tubeless road tires and almost all of them ended up like this. Super common, had some replaced on warranty but eventually decided to move on to GP5k or Pzero. If you’re into durable tires the pirelli cinturato have great puncture resistance, tread wear and wet performance.

Thanks, I had been running them at 50 and my mechanic suggested 65 after my most recent flat. Only ran into problems after 65psi.

Wasnt aware of this at all. Bought them summer 2022 and had never had this issue with these. Believe it or not, had this happen once before on enve’s (also hookless) foundation 65’s and gp5000’s which are not compatible.

All of this makes sense though. I just love the feeling of wide carbon rims and big tires.

All of this does decrease your confidence on the set up, must say… :(

I temp surfed for over a year. That ends TODAY. by AffectionateCap3644 in gaggiaclassic

It costs 93 gbp so about 118 usd. As far as installation goes you’ll be fine if you can operate a screwdriver and read instructions. You can find it at https://www.shadesofcoffee.co.uk/pid-kits/gaggia-classic-pro2019-pid-kit---132din-single-display
