I don’t want to lead astray neither. I just like cycling too. I had a tumbling round pass my ear many years ago. At that range the round wobble sounds like a helicopter blade turbulence hence protecting loved ones from lies is at least more than none of mans reason to have walked away accused of fearing the sound of a helicopter blade. Dad was lucky in a sense. He was a head armourer during Vietnam conflict and deloyed to front yet during time of flight, the conflict ended, hence they landed on Vietnam, had to remain in plane during refuelling and flew home. A lot of earthlings understand time via our relationship with our planets rotation. None or more understand coordination of prisms and densities thus allowing a broader view of our 4th dimension and in a sense; a spring while enjoying the entertainment of coordination using 3 dimensions. 80 quid is a lot to me. I’ve been riding 40 years. My understanding of using the lowest ratio isn’t to see how fast you can spin because that’ll probably do a different sort of damage. Damage if you over spin, damage if you force upon a misalignment. Basically low ratio so that there is near no force. Slow ride.. Spin.. Find your balance. Micro adjustments made by self will determine where comfort is. If you want muscle growth.. Repetitive motion on a slightly easier cog will benefit a lot less wear and speed might be slower but will become much faster sooner. Beans are really good. Brown rice is much better than white regarding nutrition and I believe potatoes even better nutrition. I love mung beans.. (Probably because it rhymes with dung and they look funny). I just like the exercise man, I’m broken in lots of physical places, even had my forehead broken. A lot of these other blokes here are much better cyclists than i(IMO) , I’m happy to have a tall cog to gently press on and a short cog to kick hard(if that makes sense). Hence growing slow feels greatCan I interest you in a 4-dimensional time cube? https://timecube.2enp.com/

I’d say they’re both valid types of logical fallacies.

Sounds like something Popeye would use

Abstract: Intergenerational upward economic mobility—the opportunity for children from poorer households to pull themselves up the economic ladder in adulthood—is a hallmark of a just society. In the United States, there are large regional differences in upward social mobility. The present research examined why it is easier to get ahead in some cities and harder in others. We identified the “walkability” of a city, how easy it is to get things done without a car, as a key factor in determining the upward social mobility of its residents. We 1st identified the relationship between walkability and upward mobility using tax data from approximately 10 million Americans born between 1980 and 1982. We found that this relationship is linked to both economic and psychological factors. Using data from the American Community Survey from over 3.66 million Americans, we showed that residents of walkable cities are less reliant on car ownership for employment and wages, significantly reducing 1 barrier to upward mobility. Additionally, in 2 studies, including 1 preregistered study (1,827 Americans; 1,466 Koreans), we found that people living in more walkable neighborhoods felt a greater sense of belonging to their communities, which is associated with actual changes in individual social class.
Trying to divert us down helmet row eh ? Pesky squirels again !I came across this interesting cycling ‘hack’ the other day: https://qz.com/1620913/the-best-cycling-hack-is-a-pool-noodle/
Another fine article HP. I kind of knew it was you posting when I read the title. Thank you for trawling internet for very interesting stuff.It is odd how we pander to the moton, and try as hard as they must, they always end up stuck in traffic.
You’re welcome. I saw it on Hacker News, so there wasn’t too much trawling required.
It’s worrying how backwards looking we are in this country, especially compared to some of the Europeans. It seems that the majority still believe that personal car ownership is the answer to our transport needs.
Does that not contradict the research into close passing from a few years back?http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/somerset/5334208.stm
(I only skimmed the article, this is the internet so I never like to wade into a discussion with all the information)
I’m sceptical of the results in that article as his results are more to do with a bloke in a wig than an actual woman cyclist.

Nice. I wonder how difficult it’d be to duct tape a chisel to the end of the pool noodle? Just asking, for a friend 😉
Your friend may have better luck taking a hammer to some spark plugs and then gluing the ceramic shards (aka ninja rocks) onto the end. Lighter and more likely to break a window.

Ok. Got it. Question: can I go cycling with the bike as is (I had planned a good day out uphill-downhill with a friend ) or I better not. Do I damage something if I do?It doesn’t sound dangerous to me. Your rear brake may be a bit more juddery than it should be, but it’ll still stop you and you’ve got the front brake working fine as well.

Ah – maybe you’ve got a sticky piston? That could explain why careful adjustment of the caliper doesn’t help too much.
A quick search brings up this: https://bicycles.stackexchange.com/questions/20931/hydraulic-disk-brake-piston-not-fully-retracting
Check whether your brakes use DOT fluid or mineral oil – mixing them is not a good idea and be careful about pulling the brake lever when pads and rotor are removed as that could push one or other piston out too far.
If you’re reasonably careful you should be able to do that without needing to bleed the hydraulics (not difficult, but involves having a suitable syringe etc).
Okay, sounds like your wheel
Okay, sounds like your wheel is good and solid, so I’m puzzled as to what could be moving to affect the braking. Maybe the rotor has some movement in it, though that’s unlikely if the lockring is anywhere near 40Nm.
Not bedding in disk brakes can lead to them being noisy and not having the full stopping potential, but it shouldn’t result in a periodic clunking noise.
You mentioned about the wheel moving inwards under braking with the bike off the ground – I don’t see how that can happen unless something is a bit loose.
Was there any movement at all
Was there any movement at all in the rear wheel when you where checking it out yesterday?
For the problem to resolve and then re-appear sounds to me like something is slipping/moving.
