This guy does an excellent job of enunciating exactly why, when Strava asked for money, I said "yeah actually I'm done". A much better job than I was able to, but it's bang-on to my feeling.

If it makes you (and bampilot06) feel any better, towards the end of my ride, yesterday, I was hearing some brake rub on the front when turning. At a stop, I gave the front end a little wiggle and saw that the through axle was a little loose, allowing the wheel to slide side-to-side a mm or two. I guess that the folks at Robert Axle Project were serious when they recommended that users check their TAs for proper torque before each ride.
That's no good with the axle coming out. What's the torque spec for it?
