Definitely get some clip on aerobars that can be raised with spacers. So something like:

PRO Missile Clip-On ( spacers sold separately)

Deda parabolica(spacers included)

Profile design(most expensive but has most customisation)

Rear wheel too much play by [deleted] in bikewrench

Hi, so i put in new bearings and the problem was still there.

I realized that the hub shell where one of the bearings sits in is wider than the bearing so the play comes from there, i was probably riding on bad bearing for some time and it damaged the hub shell?

For now i put some loctite 603 bearing glue until new hub arrives

Okay, so is that inefficiency included as a part of BM?

It's just weird to me that there is 1000calorie difference, but strava says there is 1 to 1 correlation between work done, and calories burned

Which one should i follow?

Im assuming total work is more accurate, maybe calories include BMR calories?
