    I need my fork to have "support" in the middle-ish part of it's travel, so that it's not blowing through a lot of travel just by my weight moving forward. So need a bit more psi to stop this from happening. The fancier forks can pump full of psi and still have the top travel plush, to help with the claw.

    I just did my 4th frame with the maizey's stuff. Made a rudimentary template from paper and then traced it onto the vinyl. For funny angles like thin seatstays/chainstays use a hairdryer to apply. Took a couple of hours and had to recut a few pieces, but came out alright.

    I'm surprised nobody's said which day of the week it is yet to label this thread, maybe they're having trouble logging in?

    It's pretty safe to order from CRC, go bos. They ship with DHL so 5 working days or so for delivery.

    Flat pedals

    usxorf replied to igg's topic in What bike to buy

    DMR vaults get my vote for best pedals, pin length full size, and don't worry about the wear on the sole. I commuted about 2 years on pair of 5.10 contact's before I had to throw them in the bin. They'll have some scarring from the pins but shouldn't fall apart.

    I swap between 0 and 10/12mm drop without even noticing, but a narrow toe box or rigid heel cup is my achilles heel.

    I recently completed one of the garmin 10k plans, was intermediate, can't remember which coach I chose. It was a bit light on the easy running, but the workouts were spot on. There was often 1 rest day separating hard workouts, and even a hard workout with a long run the next day. Syncing the calendar to the watch and the guided workouts were a plus, and it's free.

    I have a steam key for hollow knight, pm if anyone wants. Was part of a bundle, not 100% sure it's valid.

    I think you might be on the money with the BIOS update, check if your motherboard has bios flashback (it should). There'll be a detailed guide from asus, but it's pretty much just connect the motherboard to the power supply (doesnt need cpu/graphics/memory installed) with the bios on a flash drive, press the bios flashback and wait 5-10 minutes. I had to do this with an msi b550, was easy apart from the formatting the usb needed (had to format it as non-bootable).

    Yes but this toolset in the wrong hands would mean exactly that.

    Do you do strength training /lift weights?

    Aren't you already on one taco for the year, and it's only Januworry...?

    Maybe you need more psi for your, er, bodyweight. I run 35psi and rim dingalings are few and far between. 2.4 dhr on 35mm internal rim, for science.

    Shin splints

    usxorf replied to Jongozi's topic in The Bike Room

    Apart from going slow, you need to strengthen by doing exercises that those stabilizing muscles. There's a 50% reduction in overuse injuries just by targeted strengthening. I could have saved myself lots of pain just by following this advice. Check out running rewired by Jay Dicharry.

    So I got Netflix for pc gaming, R15.95 for the first month and R69 thereafter. Seems like a decent library. Just installed metro exodus, gears 5 and dead cells.

    You can't get on a gondola with an ebike?

    You might be in the hole of overreaching, and just need a few weeks to get out of it. Plus training and running an ultra is a very big hole.

    The coaches were influencing athletes to use PEDs.

    This is gonna need a lot of chamois cream.
