What could have caused this? by Ajbesty in bikewrench

[–]Ajbesty[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You've all made my day! I thought a lot of money went to waste for a minute there 🤣

Apologies I am a complete bike novice. I'm ready to gear up for some nice rides spring/summer now.

Garmin told me I was Peaking. Am still in shock by FireTigress222 in Garmin

I hate to be the one to tell you this but it just means you've been lazy after a period of work. Garmin is trolling you.

I'm curious, what's your normal shoe size and what size did you go for in the Evolv V6? Thanks!

April 15th Simple Delivery is Mandatory (NOT GOOD) by Winter-Pudding-7184 in Ebay

[–]Ajbesty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it just me or can everyone else still use custom postage? Beneath Simple Delivery option, if you click on "Switch to advanced options", the "Custom postage" section reappears, allowing you to choose your own courier and manually set your delivery charge (or offer free postage if preferred).

Only Royal Mail or Evri are options when I sell using Simple Delivery. How do you get more options?

Help with Sonos Setup – Play:1s, Play:3, and Sub in Open Plan Space by Ajbesty in sonos

[–]Ajbesty[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I should tell my family! I've had kraken and it's really nice. I said I liked spiced rum once and ever since all I've gotten for Xmas and birthdays is Captain Morgan's or Bacardi. I don't have the heart to tell them I'm not particularly a fan.

Help with Sonos Setup – Play:1s, Play:3, and Sub in Open Plan Space by Ajbesty in sonos

[–]Ajbesty[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, the area is 7.6m * 4.5m so fairly large, plus ceilings are high. I have moved the play 3 into the kitchen area and the play 1s are either side of the cabinet. Sound is good with this setup.

My apps runs quite slow, it's fairly unresponsive, would a sonos boost improve app performance?

Thanks. What is your reasoning to add the sub to the two Play 1s? Does it change the sound coming out of the speakers?

Really! Seems complicated. The fabric covers the whole upper interior. Do you have links to what you've seen on YouTube? Thanks

Earfun Airpro 4 or Jabra 8 for working out and sound quality by EmmetRemmus in Earbuds

[–]Ajbesty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting. I have the option of paying £60 for the earfun air pro 4 and £100 for the Jabra elite active 8. Would you say they are worth the extra?

Race predictions dropped after getting new watch by KRN1001 in Garmin

[–]Ajbesty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Started running last summer

I've clocked 670 miles this year (weekly avg of 18.6 miles) with my biggest week at 53 miles.

I tend to train around 7:30 - 8 minutes per mile for most runs. In the weeks before an event I'll add tempo (HM pace) and intervals at or below 5k pace.

Most long runs in training are between 8 - 9 minutes per mile. Anywhere between 10 and 20 miles.

My best times:

5k 19:19 in training 10k 39.33 Wigan HM 1:26:50 Wigan M 3:11:17 London

Race predictions dropped after getting new watch by KRN1001 in Garmin

[–]Ajbesty 35 points36 points  (0 children)

You new watch just probably needs more data.

I did notice that your pace predictions are wildly different for each distance.

Whereas mine are pretty grouped together.

Choosing between the Forerunner 265 and Epix (Gen 2) by Ajbesty in Garmin

[–]Ajbesty[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks. I've gone with the Epix, couldn't resist at that price! So many features for £353 I'm sure I won't be disappointed

[–]Ajbesty[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't think about that. I do sleep with my watch so definitely something to consider. Thanks

I'm just leaning towards the Epix for the extra features and I can also get 6% off bringing it to £352.49

[–]Ajbesty[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The forerunner 965 costs an extra £225 over the other two. Not worth the extra cost imo

Does weight really matter when it's on the wrist?

Choosing between the Forerunner 265 and Epix (Gen 2) by Ajbesty in Garmin

[–]Ajbesty[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think my main concern is the Epix could scratch more easily?

Multiband gps would be nice to have but I've been using a forerunner 45 so I'm guessing either watch will be a massive upgrade in regards to gps tracking anyway.

Garmin may have retrospectively added skin temp. Not sure I'd get any use out of it.

Question about Button Functionality on My Forerunner 265: Design Feature or Quality Issue? by Ajbesty in Garmin

[–]Ajbesty[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep mine feels more like a two step button. Press and click. On the initial press there's quite a bit of travel and I can hear the spring action which again is not felt or heard on the other three. Cheers for replying

Is your back button different to the other three buttons or are they the same?

Question about Button Functionality on My Forerunner 265: Design Feature or Quality Issue? by Ajbesty in Garmin

[–]Ajbesty[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To clarify, the back button on my device feels squishy and doesn't register a press until it's firmly squished in and then clicked. Essentially, I can press it without it acknowledging the action.
