So no, not that big of a change... unless you're already at your limits.

So, ethical dilemma: I have a meeting tomorrow, which is important because we will be reviewing raises and bonuses for staff and trying make things fair and equitable. We have split the staff up and everyone is expected to lead the review on a set of people. My ability to access the database of evaluations and reference letters etc. went bad today so I can't do the homework on my assigned people until I get IT help and that could be next week. I emailed the committee chair and he asked if I could come in and do the meeting from my office, where I would have access. There will be almost no one there, since everyone nonessential has been ordered home and the meeting will take about two hours. I would not be anywhere near patients.
I emailed back that I was on day 8 of a 2-week of isolation and monitoring period after travel to a "high risk" area. He has not replied to that. What would y'all do?

So I am finally done with the new cables and housing on the Habanero and plan to wrap the bars tomorrow. It’s been awhile since I wrapped bars, I like to start at the bottom and do a figure 8 at hoods. But Park Tool YouTube says don’t do that and instead change direction of wrap at hoods. Does it really matter?

Hey MoAlpha I hope IT can solve the problem but if not, honesty with your supervisor is probably a good compass. Unless supervisor is a French Shower, in which case you may be screwed.

One thing that's much simpler on a tri bike.

Is there a hard deadline? Seems like the kind of thing that could wait a week, given the circumstances.

Not a biggie if wrapped tightly to start with.
Probably matters more with glue-free tape.

Kestrel has had Oval cranks with Praxis rings for a while (not sure if Praxis makes the cranks for Oval or not) and I've seen them on some Specialzed bikes. Not sure who else off the top of my head. But yeah - they're out there and people pull 'em off and replace them with Shimano because XZY skimped with the non-series crankset. Used to be that you could get a new/take-off crankset for cheaper than the cost of the rings themselves, so check the 'bay when your rings need replacing.
