I reckon that bitch ass (4) thing can't do much if the two screws that clamp the crankarm down are too loose, the crank arm probably moves too much under load and the plastic screw can't withstand that as we can see

This is not a "screw" to fasten stuff, this is a "screw" just to apply some pre tension.
That's why the proper "tool" for this "screw" is made out of plastic and the only torque on it is applied from the palm of your hand.
FFS Bert!

>>54910
Wait, this failure mode is even worse:
Did you remove the crank arm without removing the tensioning "screw" first?
WFT Bert!

>>54914
Bert... this little thing (4) is not preventing anything, it is just an indicator so you know if the crank arm is "deep enough" on the axle.
Well, Bert... have you read any manual before hand?

to be fair that small pin on 4 is supposed to to hold your crank as a last ditch effort when the bolts are completely loose
I'm more surprised bertman never felt his left crank was so damn loose it came to this
I mean you can even visually see it when the bolts aren't tight enough because the gap gets so big

Bolts not torqued, crank gets wiggle room.
2.5 meter bert hulking on his rape machine getting that crank to hit the cheap piece of plastic at 100 rpm for god knows how long.
Piece of plastic holding on for dear life, the pin is cracked so he continued even after that.
To be fair to the shimano dudes, I'm pretty sure that piece of plastic that came off on the preload bolt is supposed to come off because otherwise the entire plastic threads would've just sheared off on the inside ruining even more.

Found an e-shop in steinschönau that has the very last two screws for my R8000 Ultegra in böhmen.
I am not certain the R8100 ones are compatible as they are half the length. They probably are but even AI overlord is not sure (part Y1P417000 vs Y1KS13000)

Maybe "unsymmetrical" tightening of the two bolts?
I mean, frequent shifting between tightening both bolts to the final 12-14Nm.
Or maybe the switch from riding outside in ciclismo weather to winter hell?
Frame carbon, bb shell aluminium, spindle steel, crank arm aluminium, crank arm bolts steel, tension cap plastic...
Things just get some play with this mix of materials.

I check any and all things that you can torque down on a bike every couple months and there's always at least 1 or 2 bolts somewhere that are like 0.5 - 2 Nm off. Never really loose but sometimes enough that it's actually concerning and gives me paranoia where I check it after each ride for 3 or 4 days
Of course I also went to check it all now but this time everything's tight

I have two very expensive ones that I appropriated from work so I can't recommend anything specific unless you want to pay BIGLY but I would say any small wrench that has a range of 2-40 Nm would be good. See that it comes with a set of hex bits H2-H10 and torx bits T10-T25 or T30 if possible since torx is getting increasingly more common on bike parts.
I don't think spending a lot of money is necessary because surely anything that's sold in an online bike shop is calibrated and accurate enough

>cranksets that don't have pinch bolts but only one big bolt that you tighten with 35 or 45 nm
>disc lock rings
arguably the lock ring you can do by feel aka as hard as you can but the crankset one is more delicate, too little torque and the crankarms can come loose while too much may crush the bearings or preload adjuster if it has one

We haven't made a decision on that yet, but the most important thing is: we need a long period where Wout can train continuously and build up. These periods cannot be interrupted."

I guess it comes from our family being quite poor when I was a child, learnt the value of money from my parents and grandparents. Now as an adult I have more money than I can ever spend, and yet I get a psychological block when I buy something really expensive if I can't justify it being better than a lower priced version. So I end up buying Chinesium frames for peanuts instead of Sir Velo and S Works.

luckily based intervals lets you manually edit drop outs but it's still annoying to fix
check if you're strap is just moldy and needs a clean, or if the numerous pivoes made it fit less well

You have to be a true ciclismo enjoyer to appreciate Wout Van Aert. He's a complete rider who can ride cobbles, time trials, hills and even mountains. Despite all his success he was neveer too good to ride as a hjæpler for his teammates when they needed him. He has always been second to van der Poel but he never let it stop him from working hard and trying his best. Wout is the soul of ciclismo concentrated in one rider.

"Polish" runner SEMIRUNNIY was even faster though, but it was in the B-division where you have unfair stayering advantage. Also the first time EVER I have seen a Slovakian in the results. 30th in the B-group. 13:32, almost as fast as the legendary WR from dopeur KOSS in 1994. The dopeurs from now go a full minute faster

I've found two heavy gym sessions doable but need to be careful about positioning them in the calendar. This seemed to work quite well in the recent weeks, putting them in the evening of a sprint day and then on a separate day after a harder SST session. And I suppose my gym volume hasn't been that big so it hasn't interfered all that much, yesterday I did 3x6x105kg back squats, 3x8x100kg Romanian deadlifts and 3x6x75kg split squats, all with 2-3 reps in reserve. Still tough but easy enough to be able to recover in time for the next on-bike workout.

useful, thanks Bërtt
as an aside, has anyone gotten the "Weight Lifted" on the Totals page of intervals to show anything other than 0kg? I'm sure it's something pbvipus but I've tried every variation of including weights reps and sets in the actovity markdown I could think of with no success

>AI Overlord Overview
>For 45/15 cycling intervals (45 seconds hard, 15 seconds easy), you're generally working in your VO2 Max (Zone 5) or high Threshold (Zone 4) zones, aiming for efforts around 105-120% of FTP (Functional Threshold Power) for the "on" part, followed by easy spinning at Zone 1-2 for recovery, to boost aerobic capacity and lactate clearance for better threshold power.
Hm, the 105% sounds ridiculously low, 120% or 125% is more like it

>De Visma | Lease a Bike-Belg ging ook nog in op zijn plan de campagne in 2026, waarbij hij vooral inzoomde op zijn valpartijen van afgelopen jaar en de lessen die hij daaruit getrokken heeft richting komende koersen. Misschien probeerde ik het te veel te forceren, omdat ik tijdens de winter al voelde dat die valpartijen een issue vormden, legde hij uit. De belangrijkste stap was misschien nog wel erkennen dat ik niet meer de allergrootste risico's neem. Eerder remmen dus, sloot de Belgische chouchou af. Zonder daar iets negatiefs aan te koppelen. Ik vind er geen plezier meer in om onnodige risico’s te nemen, maar dat is niet erg.

No but for many around 3.5-4.5w/kg is a limit simply from vo2max genetics and not being able to train enough volume because of life reasons.
For me it seems like life is getting in the way of training. Daughter has hand,foot and mouth disease, and I've probably caught it as well since I am now running a fever. Hoping it won't turn severe, I have heard from other parents that HFMD can be pretty nasty (not being able to eat at all due to painful spots in the mouth/throat, nails falling off etc). Luckily daughter isn't too much affected so maybe it'll be mild for me as well.

They opened first "Five Guys" fast food burger chain in Prague to mixed reviews
I honestly don't know who this is for. Burger and fries go for 25 EUR or something.
You will get a burger and fries AND beer cheaper in literally any burger joint anywhere else and that won't be a fast food and will be instead prepared by a hipster shirt wearing, gloves wearing moustache sporting middle aged cook

25 for fast food slop is STEEP but when you think about it the average knuckle dragger spends a good chunk of their (very meager) disposable income on fast food delivery so I'm not surprised that some burger chain thinks they can capitalize on that by making it seem like they are hip and special

Peculiar sound coming in from the rear, only when I score BIG watts on the right side.
It's NOT BB. Chain is not loose, deraileur is properly aligned. Could be squeaky saddle (unlikely) or it could be those 10 metric kilotons of vaxx smegma i just removed from the small cogs. Or the zwift cock is falling apart. Or maybe I just positioned the bike awkwardly on the mat. Will know more next time.

Akshully he only won 6. But unlike Wiggins I haven't heard any news that Froome should be broke so why the fuck does he humiliate himself for money like this? I'm guessing he's oblivious to the humiliation and thinks he looks cool for not giving up.

its all on your income but in addition to income tax we also pay social contributions such as health insurance, pension insurance, unemployment insurance, nursing insurance (? Pflegeversicherung is what we call it) and church contribution
your employer has to pay half of the social contributions on top of your pre-deductions income which means there is a BIG gap between what you cost your employer and what you get past all deductions, fucked 2bh

Had that Popeye's, pretty standard, the burger was shoddily made like everything was put in one spot and the rest was completely dry, no wonder they get the lowest possible wage if they can't put together a burger according to standardized instructions.
There were like 10 staff in the small space they rented, at least 6 of them doing nothing and just stood in the way. Guess this is reverse overemployment anticipating inevitable quitters.
Will go for the chicken only next time I fancy. Fries were rather meh, not stale or tough but felt like they sat whole day before being served.

Apparently one of their two name sponsors haven't signed for the full period so they don't live up to UCI's economic criteria for World Tour licenses. I'm assuming they can get the contract sorted now that they scored enough UCI points but if they can't they get booted after next year.

It looks like it will be a battle between the local teams 7C - Economy - Hyundai and Colono Bikestation Kölbi and the Ecuadorians Movistar Best PC.
The big names include defending champ Luis Daniel Oses, former conti star Kevin Rivera, other local Tico heroes like Daniel Bonilla, Sergio Arias, Pablo Mudarra, Alejandro Granados, Joseph Ramirez as well as continental heavyweights like Santiago Montenegro, Richard Huera and Byron Guamá. Other international superstars include Cormac McGeough, Kenny Nijssen and a certain Quintana.

The route includes a 17 km mountain ITT and two stages featuring the mythical Cerro de la Muerte, stunning images are sure to be had!

6x week of training with 6x5min max on one day and 40min max TT on the other day, alternating between those.
