Listening to Josh talk is like listening to myself, its so weird. I use the exact same rule of thumb of rotational mass: "Its like 1.1" and have said the exact same thing about heavier tires: "the weight doesn't matter but it tends to be faster anyway because of rolling resistance" heh.

Swisside 625 rim brake front, 5000s 23mm and played here, yep a very fast combo, I’m not as fast as him but also not as old, hopefully I age as gracefully as he has

Will higher temp environments degrade waxed chains quicker? I live in Las Vegas and during the summer temps can get up to 110+. With asphalt temps being even higher, can that heat cause the wax to be softer and less effective? I use silca wax on my DA chain and it seems to get noisy quicker that people in other environments report.

FIRSt LIKE & Response on YT ! I deserve a medal. Liking my SILCA Wax, much better than just GULF wax I used in the 1980’s & doesn’t shed all over the place. Will invest in a SILCA pump, hopefully, asking the Clause here soon!
