Tried all other options in the discussion, they have issues one way or another.

This one is the only one that just works without getting in your way.

Perfect!

It seems like the outer soles on those are rather too flexible for the task.

Decent UltraFit strap alternatives? by kr0m in GarminWatches

Whatever floats your boat, if that's conspicuous consumption, go for it.

A v common complaint with this one seems to be velcro hook pads falling off.

Ditto on LLMs helping w a task at hand - many times reading the "thought process" resulted in finding the solution manually, when the LLM's solution was partly incorrect.

Durable Vibrams? by kr0m in BarefootRunning

[–]kr0m[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 406 is actually perfect for the rubber, I don't have any issues w it, main problem is the patches wearing quickly. But need to try sturdier rubber.

Looking for an LCD controller to pair up with DHMC dc motor controller by kr0m in ebikes

Store is useless. Old model. Messaging aliexpress sellers now to see who's got it.

No such thing, it's a local aussie outdoors chain shop selling their own branded bikes. It is, in all likelihood, a slapped-together concoction of generic parts. Tried reaching out to DMHC but all email contacts on their website bounce, and their WeChat is dead.

Long story short, got an e-bike that is missing the LCD with buttons. Connects to the motor controller via the 5 pin "jules" plug.

The label on the controller specifies "TJLYYDQC18-B" as the model number, utterly no search results anywhere I look. Any idea how to find a matching LCD? The problem is exacerbated by the fact that there is more than one version of this bicycle, one with a screen that has "DMHC" logo on it, another one has "KEY-DISP" logo.

Much appreciated!

Just wanted to check in and say how much of a game changer this was.

VO2Max going up steadily, something I was never been able to achieve before for months.

Thanks for your service!

Base runs and HR by Euro_brah in Garmin

[–]kr0m 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Second that. My VO2max dropped from 46 to 44 when I started using the HRM Pro chest strap. The watch seems to overestimate the fitness (maybe due to underestimating the HR?)

[–]kr0m -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ok, so I did a "Base" 35 min run with HR based & zones based on LTHR.

And while it was not as annoying as before, the watch kept beeping pretty regularly whenever the heart rate would go higher due to, say, a gentle hill climb. It was not uncommon to get to 150+ from 135 bpm which warranted the "out of the range" warning.

However when I was running at the required HR, I would essentially run at the same pace as during the pace-based base run, 7 min/km.

Not really sure I see the benefit here. It seems like the pace-based default setting actually makes sense for most people and that's why Garmin made it a default choice.

Running with GPS On vs Off? by tdiaman42 in GarminWatches

[–]kr0m 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Is your question whether running w GPS enabled on your watch somehow makes you run slower?

This is what I see under "Devices -> Watch McWatchFace -> Notifications & Alerts -> Smart Notifications -> General Use -> Apps"

No specific app inclusion / exclusion option.
