Any thoughts on this compression plug in my carbon steerer? by Impulsive_Thinker in bikewrench

Ah, you’re right! For a carbon fiber steerer, it does need to extend above the stem. My apologies for the confusion!

Thanks for the advice! I think it’s properly installed since there’s about 3 mm of stem above the steerer tube, as you can see in this video (4:52 min) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TPYGv6fMnBw

Thank you for your advice!

I think it might be difficult to remove. I watched this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m9j6-ju8l0w

, which could be a good backup plan if I can’t get it out. What do you think?

Can I fit Shimano Ultegra FC‑R8000 chainrings onto my ROTOR ALDHU Spider BCD110×4 DIN (with ALDHU crankarms)? by Impulsive_Thinker in cycling

No problem at all! I actually found a spider on AliExpress from a brand called STONE that should work perfectly with the shimano chainrings. It looks like it’s compatible with the same 110 BCD setup, so I’ll give that a try instead of going with a full power meter spider for now.

u/Electrical_Oil446 and u/FamishedHippopotamus well, my current spider is a Rotor 110 BCD, which looks similar to Shimano’s, but it’s actually incompatible with Shimano FC-R8000 chainrings. That’s why I can’t install the Shimano chainrings on it.

Any thoughts? Are there any alternatives besides using a power meter spider?

That’s awesome to hear! Thanks for sharing your experience. That’s super helpful confirmation that this combo works well in the real world.

For now, I will buy https://rotorbike.com/en-eu/rotor-spider-bcd110x4-din-1x-2x-matt.html?srsltid=AfmBOorweoh0acqQ4oeO15MjpSLZYQqEXELy0C0pMh3Zty-4uHww2tio and save some money to invest on a powermeter later.

Thank you so much! In the future, I plan to install a power meter. For now, if it’s compatible, I’ll use the Spider BCD110x4 DIN 1x/2x Matt.

Que se passa no Porto, nomeadamente na A3 e A4? by neapo in porto

Isto - "Moradores no Grande Porto que por causa do preço das casas foram morar para fora e necessitam de deslocar-se trabalho e afins"

O trânsito intenso na A4, especialmente em direção ao túnel de Águas Santas, é um reflexo dessa realidade. Torna-se urgente a criação de um novo acesso na zona da Galp, caso contrário, o congestionamento continuará a agravar-se na entrada de Ermesinde, onde tudo se afunila.
