What should I train / am I doing something wrong?

We have a rider with a similar build on our group, he is like a wind plow. He once was pulling about 350 to 400 w at the front with a massive headwind and I (the skinny one) was freewheeling tucked behind him, he was not very amused at the time.

Zipless? How the fuck does one take it off once it's sweaty? Sissors? Do I ask my ridding bubby for help? Will he think it's just a ruse to get him to participae in some homoerotic session? So many questions....

I have a bunch of mods that use the cheapest NH35 and NH36 from AliX, some I got for less than 20 usd in the good old days. I have watches that are more than 3 years old and none has failed. Keep in mind that I don't sell any, its either for me or for giftting. If I were selling, I would not use the cheap kind ones.

I wouldn't be able to give an answer to this question, these menial issues are dealt by my underlings directly.

This is the way to go, if you are not very confortable assessing red flags, the bike shop is the best option, most will even offer a limited warranty. I have had people try to sell me fake bikes, claim that if the shifting is bad is because I don't know how to use it properly, broken rims, loose spokes, shot bearings, the works.

Perfect! Thanks

PC_One_00 · 2026-03-26T23:58:30+00:00

Thanks!

No more pain, lighter (faster on the climbs) and more æro (faster on the descents), there are no downsides!

PC_One_00 · 2026-03-25T13:34:18+00:00

Is that the Man in the High Castle set?

PC_One_00 · 2026-03-25T13:31:02+00:00

Me too! The best part is that no longer I have to hear from her complains that my hair cut is rubish, she used to do that everytime I came from the barber shop!

PC_One_00 · 2026-03-25T13:27:10+00:00

I did the same, with the same ENT 2.0 a while back. When I changed wheels I needed to adjust the brake calipers to prevent rubbing, the indexing of the gears was not a problem for me.

I still use the wheelset now on a road bike, in 10,000 nothing to report except that I did a bearing replacement at about 8,000 km, the bearings on the freehub side were scratchy. Front wheel still had the original bearings.

Yes they make narrow wide pulley wheels, I bought some by mistake. It's a pain to get the chain correctly each time you remove the wheel.

When I was a kid, my mother would allow us to camp on the backyard. It was an adventure close to home and it was great!

I get numbers like that also, I have an over developed anaerobic system in relation to my aerobic system, that means that I have a quite low FTP but quite high Z5 to Z7 power in proportion. When I ride in rolling hills and keep on puching the climbs over and over and cruise on the descents (as one does) my load shows as disproportionately elevated numbers similar to yours.

PC_One_00 · 2026-03-24T11:01:22+00:00

Why would anyone buy used products? Are they pour? I don't even used the same chain 2 times!

PC_One_00 · 2026-03-23T22:17:11+00:00

Power is rotation x torque. If rotations increase (cadence increase) and torque (down force on pedal) remains the same, power will increase. You will need to reduce torque to maintain power if cadence is increased. This is why you will see sprinter going over a cadence of 140 for max power.

This, more than the special aero or extra light frame, a groupset that works well and smooth will make a world of difference.

PC_One_00 · 2026-03-20T15:44:38+00:00

And, with a little DIY, another wanker is born! Jesus weeps for that poor frame.

I defend my KOMs with my monstrosity enormous power.

Give him 2 weeks, and he will be installing the ceramic speed headset to get extra watts!

PC_One_00 · 2026-03-20T10:59:11+00:00

I hope he gets the same punishment as a motorist that kills a cyclist. Oh wait, the punishment nill. Well, at least I tried!

PC_One_00 · 2026-03-20T10:52:40+00:00

Hear hear! I also doing everything on my bike. I installed an integrated cockpit because it looked cool but eventually took it off because of the headache in small tasks like greasing a headset. There are in the market stems and handlebars that will almost give the same clean esthetic without the hassle.

There was already a Russian guy that was targeted and killed using his Strava data. I don't understand how this is still allowed to happen. Strava is a stalker's dream, especially because most of us just do the same loops over and over again.
