  Nate Silver comes with a lot of caveats, but this might be useful

  Did that already, but happy to try anything and everything. Will also try the more detailed work once I have tools for it.

  If the cranks go back on sale I'd be very interested

  Etape 2023 was pure cruelty. Dangerous levels of heat, my garmin recorded 3h above 40C. I was already dying at the top of Ramaz, never going to forget the galleries. Fucking awful. Saw a lot of unsavoury scenes (true of every etape tho?)

  Thanks all. Was looking at the wheelsmfg the other day but thought the cable would foul it, great to know.

  I did the forensic check recently, cleaned and regreased every bolt and skewer, and torqued seatpost, cockpit, and pedals properly. Still sounds like a matraca

  Does anyone have a sure-fire way of dealing with creaking BB? I know, I know, but damn. I love my CAAD12, it's so close to being all the (road) bike I'll ever need but I can't live with the BB creaking and cracking like the bike is about to split in half.

  I have good ceramic bearings in there now, installed by (good?) mechanics on my lbs, which was quiet for the first 500km but now it's a mess. I don't think I can run sleeves because the hydro cable runs through the BB shell, so what can I do? Is the solution to buy BB tools to service it regularly at home? Is there a solution?

  @e54 any tips? Can't imagine you riding those beautiful bikes accompanied by the sound of a medieval ratchet.
