Someone in the Strava comments:
According to google maps (if you ran 5 rounds around the block) you ran 7.24K and not 9.34 in total
It's all a bit silly. It's even frontpage on the sporza site. https://sporza.be/nl/2021/02/08/twijfel-over-fenomenale-looptijd-van-pidcock-hij-zit-er-zelf-ook-wat-mee-verveeld~1612780322943/
It clearly is some gps error. It's ok to make a mistake and post it online but why not delete it before it gets so much attention. -
I have done both powerbank only and dynamo and I'm sticking with dynamo in the future. Just the ease of mind I have knowing I have power close by is worth it. No need for checking if the powerbanks are still charged and no possible mishaps like I once had in a hotelroom. I was so tired I didn't plug it in properly and the powerbanks hadn't charged overnight. Gave me quite some stress that day.
It is doable with just powerbanks but a dynamo is one thing less to think about. Also, always take 2 powerbanks, not just one big one. Always have a spare.

I meant open street maps. I'm not trying to be a wise-ass, just genuinely interested in the statement "I don't know how it is possible to enjoy cycling without paper maps."
As for contours, you can find them on opencyclemap and opentopomap (with hillshading).
I love building routes and couldn't do it without the opencyclemap detail combined with google streetview and heatmap. (All possible in RWGPS).

What are some of those details you would find on paper maps and not on OSM?

It's not really that complicated? If you have a switch you have one 'in' and two 'outs'. 'In' is connected to dynamo and the two 'outs' are connected to front light and the Igaro. If you switch to the Igaro you get power out of the two usb connectors.

Have you checked here? Found some small bits here few years ago: https://www.giantbikespares.com/
Contact them if the parts you're looking for are not on the site.
You could use the 'code' field so it doesn't render the youtube embed. You'll need to copy/paste the link though.
