[@bartix5839]

30mm carbon wheels probably should weigh around 1100-1200g's

[@ericpmoss]

One nice thing about going wider is that since it lets you run lower pressure, it also reduces punctures. So you might not (tm) need to get more puncture resistant tires.

[@Spicybangralover]

Perhaps olí could have gone with sram xplr groupset and also why use a hand pump for puncture’s when you’ve got a support vehicle to carry a track pump. Congratulations olí massive respect

Probably don't notice it at first, and even on 4 hour rides. But after ~9 hours I started to feel a bit of pain and took me another hour to come up with that explanation and trying with the other hand helped a lot. Congrats of the ride.

The gearing is why I really, really wish that there were stock cassettes and stock options from Shimano to support lower gearing. I have always live and ridden in the mountains. I ride my gravel bike w/ 11-40 in the back a lot of the time if I'm not feeling gung ho for endless 12-16%

Another lesson learned. . . Have a floor pump and/or CO2 cartridges in the support vehicle. I can never get a road tire up to the proper pressure with a mini-pump, or it takes a very long time.

Yeah was thinking the same in that big van! Why no track pump? And maybe (if budget allowed) even spare wheels to just hot swap?

[@andrewmcalister3462]

For that length challenge, when you are exhausted, it’s 2am and your brain is barely functioning, it’s probably best to keep the existing and familiar gear layout than risk something different. I don’t mean to diss the idea though - it would be a great way for Ollie to get back on the bike now, while his wrist is still recovering.

[@fredsirvalo1904]

I can confirm wrist fatigue from shifting. I was lucky enough to purchase a bike with electronic shifting this year. The difference in wrist fatigue on long rides (>4 hours) is night and day. Electronic shifting reduces the amount of wrist movement needed to shift. Multiply it by hundreds of times over a long ride. My recovery time from long rides is now almost zero. I hope your wrist recovers well. Cheers.

[@yonseimatt]

Not sure how the gradients compare to the Wuling Pass in Taiwan, but when I did that with a mate a few years ago (lightly loaded) we both had 50-34 on the front, he had 11-36 on the back and I had 11-42. My second gear was the same as his first gear. That extra lower gear really helped, I struggled at lot less on those ridiculous switchbacks. That particular bike now has the same 11-42 on the back but 32-42 on the front for the steeper stuff we have here in China.

paying close attention to my heart rate, and keeping it down or from maxing out, makes a huge difference in my longevity strength, for what it's worth.

[@xuchenglin6256]

The wrist injury: Watch out your hoods angle. It seems from the video that your lever is recessed from the top section of the handle bar. Combined with the handle bar part, your overall EFFECTIVE hoods angle could be in some very strange way. (down wards pointing then shoot upwards, very very bad.) Of course that's a "first world problem" as you are using an integrated handlebar. The default angle is just wrong from my raw eye. If it's a bar-stem combo, you can simply set the lever so there's a flat transition and rotate the handlebar so you get your prefered hoods angle. The hand-wrist-elbow-shouder-upperback-lowerback chain reacts in some very unexpected ways. A very minor degree change results in some very unexpected pain/relief just from my own experience. A very very very slight up tilt solved my shoulder/neck problem, and the hands feels so much support and stability. I said OK, let's make the hand support more. I tilted the hoods further up to a very very slight up tilt, more than previous but still so slight, then I get hand numbness and lower back pain afterwards... From my raw eye your hands position -- the angle, seems at some very unhealthy positions. Especially in the shots where you were standing pedaling. I doubt if any fitter could really solve this because it's so nuanced but I suggest you really take some serious consideration into this and experiment. All the aero and fast is vague when compared with health. Your condition is no more just comfort, it's actually a health issue now. I heard with some wedged spacers you can still change the bar angle somehow, it might worth a try. Set it really carefully and the chain reaction might surprise you.

[@TeoSluga]

You should never ever rely on the "average gradient" of the climb. Always check the hardest parts. Especially the parts above 10%. What is important is the length of that hard segments 👍

[@jasonhutchinson8060]

I use a PZero Race TLR tire but with the regular butyl tube that came with my bike. I get the added protection layer from the tubeless liner within the tire, the puncture protection layer already in the PZero Race, and another layer of protection from the thick butyl tube itself. Yes, a bog standard tube and added weight of the TLR lining is a little heavier than that of a PZero Race clincher with a light TPU tube....but I have not had a puncture in over 1200 miles and counting, and now feel confident enough to get rid of my saddle bag. That has dropped my total bike weight by a lot more than I added by having a butyl tube in a TLR tire.

That’s what I run all the time and have for years. Based on the idea that the action of the lever should mimic the effect on the chain. The forward levers work the front derailer, and the rearward levers work the rear derailer. Push to the left moves the chain to the left, push to the right moves the chain to the right. Just makes sense to my brain. Bonus: distributes the workload across your hands.

Is weight the whole story / the critical factor regards “spinning up quick” on climbs?
