Got the headset to match the hubs. The wheels were swapped over from my IF, which had 10 speed SRAM Force. Had to get an adapter to make the rear 11 speed compatible. When the wheels were originally built the same shop thatbuilt the frame sold me the CK hub set for the same price as the rear one retailed for.
I did Cycle Oregon in 2007. Chris King and a small entourage travelled with the tour. I never saw him ride, but he did like to hang around in camp in the evening with his flock, hold cour and drink coffee.

Can we please take the masks talk to the Covid forum? Because what I’d like to say is far too political for this thread, but clearly it’s not just being dropped despite getting tempers up.

That Cervelo Aspero is a nice looking bike for a grinder.

If I asked about lower gearing and I got 100 replies I would be surprised. I had no idea there was that much to know about lower gearing.

My 6600 bike has done that on both shifters. I don't ride it very often and I have tried WD-40 but it gets gummy in there after the bike sits in cooler weather. The last time I used silicone spray lube and the shifters worked great after that. Turn the bike upside down and spray into the shifter at the base of the lever.

And I hadn't realized that GRX wasn't just a groupset, but a line of groupsets. They have 105 and Ultegra level now?

Also it’s funny, because I think when I first registered here roadies viewed Cervelo with scorn as a tri-geek brand. I certainly don’t remember this much glowing talk about them back then.

Wait - high HRV is a sign of stress? Or bigger swings in HRV is a sign of stress? I was under the impression that higher HRV was healthier.
When you're saying increases and decreases, you're talking relative to your baseline? Like bad stressors will send you below your baseline and good above it?

As a homeostatic marker, i.e. an indication of what that set point is, more HRV is better because it indicates greater activity of the parasympathetic nervous system relative to sympathetic.
However, as a marker of acute perturbations, i.e., stress, good or bad, it's more complicated. Any swing away from the previous set point is indicative of stress and the system can swing in either direction. As a rule, bad stress causes an acute increase. Good stress, however seems to be able to push HRV in either direction, or at least that's my understanding, not having gone back to the original literature on "good" stress. In vague terms, I think the direction of change after exercise is an indication of how the body is "handling" stress and higher means it's reacting in a healthier way because of increased reserve. That seems to fit with my experience.
A higher day to day variance, measured in my app as the running 7-day coefficient of variation, implies stress because it means the system is being perturbed by some input.
Make sense?
I will look up acute HRV increases in response to exercise and see if there's anything interesting there.

I’m still surprised it’s a whole groupset - seems like an RD and maybe a bit else would be enough. I suppose there are people who would feel it wasn’t taken seriously then though.

I love my bike, but I have nothing else to compare it to. I got it because it was a smoking deal and fit me. Someday, maybe I'll ride some other soulless plastic bike and realize it's been ****e all this time.

I'm sure that your perspective is different, but I only recall scorn similar to... let's say - Rapha. Upscale without bells and whistles, so it must be fodder marketed towards poseurs and dentists, yadda, yadda.

Marbury played in China, lives in Beijing, and coaches a team there. He brokered the deal for 10 million masks at cost. He is not paying for them. Do you think Stephon Marbury would pay for 10 million masks at $2.75/mask?
Kraft was solicited by the governor to help. He sent the Patriots plane and (with some others apparently) paid for the masks. They would have brought more back, but the plane only fit 1.2 million. 300,000 of those are in New York this morning.
Facts are facts.

Or you can just go in to the Greater 41 and wait for people to yell "Hambini!" at you.

I don't think I meant any more than that - it just was viewed overall negatively, and now it's flipped even though I think the current ones are less good for their time than the older ones were. Whereas people hardly talk about Felt now.
