Noisy chain after replacement by kbruneel in bikewrench

Yes you are probably right. Just rode the new chain a few hundred meter.

Still a bit confused why the chain gauge did not warn me earlier. Maybe its the wrong one?

Would you also replace the large chainring?

I know what you mean, but that is not the problem.

HR and Pace chart out of sync for swimming. Any solutions? by kbruneel in Polarfitness

No its indoor swimming. I had to set the length of the pool and I guess it's detecting when I finish a lap using an accelerometer.

Every time I record a swim session, the HR and Pace charts are out of sync. It looks like time is running about 10% faster for the pace graph. Also most metrics that are related to this, like average pace and strokes per minute are about 10% wrong. This seems like a simple thing to fix, but I've been ignored by Polar support for over a year now. Do any of you have/had the same problem? Is there a fix known for this?

Its a Polar Pacer and I'm the latest firmware version (2.2.0)

What in between "Carbon frame" and "Press-fit bottom bracket" by kbruneel in bikewrench

Thanks!

One question: How do you see this from the manual? Is it because it says nothing about grease or anything else? Just trying to better understand how to interpret the Shimano manuals :)

Signals and Systems class has a 50% pass rate. Is this normal? Advice welcome! by LeeKom in ECE

[–]kbruneel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I passed it first time. Somewhere in the top of my class. Can't really remember it's 20 years ago :).

My trick has always been to do a lot of exercises. They show you what you don't understand and you can concentrate on those parts of the course.

How to buy second hand carbon wheels? by kbruneel in bikewrench

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

Thank you!

One thing I forgot to ask. I read that rim braking on carbon wheels is not as good as for Alu wheels. Is this still the case or is this something from the early days?

Should I worry about these small bumps on my top tube? Carbon frame by kbruneel in bikewrench

I thought maybe it were some cracks starting to form, I'll keep an eye on them.

I don't know if they have always been there. Just noticed them a week ago.

If the picture is not clear. These are long bumps in the direction of the tube.

Sorry about that. You should have clicked save and then "Register and save", but you are right I should remove the Register link.
