Unfortunately whatever hosting site you used to show your photos isn’t allowed through my firewall so I apologise if it is obvious they won’t fit.
i have ordered both round and oval already in the hope it will fit. Failing that I will make a 2 part mold.

Not to be facetious, but what kind of ‘gains’ do you expect a cream can provide?well as I have to explain it. Some creams are argued to be better than others, so I thought I would ask the collective, their experience of different creams in an attempt to decrease any chaffing I may get. Sorry I didn’t meant to be so cryptic in my first post.

You might need a longer rear cage though.The only issue I have with such wide cassettes is that the jumps between gears often prevent me spinning at the right cadence for a given power, but thats it.
this one!
just because you can climb alpe d’huez with a 25 on the back doesn’t mean it’s the best way of doing it.

Depends on the hills you
Depends on the hills you climb and the amount of weight you lug up it. I’m 93 kilos I can generate a fair amount of power and hold it for a while, but get me on exmoor things like the steep version of porlock hill and a route over the moors a 32 is required.
I’ve gone from Buxton to Barnsley and back on a 25 at the rear, then did it again on a 32 so much better than grinding it out.

Yep I have two versions of the Garmin sensors ( old style and new) as long as you pair them or will be fine.

Any recommendations for more durable tubless tyres, I love the Schwalbe Pro-One’s but i don’t think they will last long on my commuter/winter hack!
