    I read the review and watched the video when there were no comments, just been back and looked. I think you made your point without starting this thread.

    As you did, you are only drawing more attention to the review, the product and the video, so on behalf of Road.cc. I say thanks 👿 👿 👿

    I you would like to see what all the fuss is about for yourself and see what’s got Pisiform’s goat. Go here

    Although I didn’t really find it funny, it was mildly amusing and also a novel way to show the stretch. How else would you suggest it was shown?

    I have a few of this for my trike. Much better than anything metal that can mark your frame, on and off in seconds and once on, secure as anything you will find.

    Mobile phone tracking with
    Mobile phone tracking with any app is never 100% reliable.

    I have found since getting my Garmin 500 though that Strava seem to adjust things. I put a ride into Garmin connect and also into Strava, both straight from the 500 without doing anything, both said different things.

    SO I am very wary of trusting Strava with anything now.

    I am also not the first to have this problem, I don’t know whats up with Strava, but it changes people’s data from various GPS units they use 😕

    I mostly use a torque driver rather than a wrench.

    They work at much lower ranges. I have one of these for small jobs

    Then one of these for bigger jobs

    I always work of Nm (Newton Meters) rather than kN, which I believe is just 1000 Nm? 😕
