Excessive hip/ knee angle at top

Excessive hip/ knee angle at top

Hey.

I posted this video recently but I took a screen shot. I’m riding 155mm cranks in the picture. I’m curious if it looks like I could go even shorter down to 150mm? How are my knee and hip angles at the top?

Possible compression from weight lifting

I’ve been having almost like light gas type
Feelings in my left chest area and also just radiating nerve pain from the base of my neck
Left side thru the trap to the shoulder and chest. I notice it gets worse when doing heavy deadlifts or Zercher squats. I am quite the hypochondriac so having pains etc near the chest is never helpful lol. Is this a possible vagus nerve situation ?

Power Mirror Evo vs Selle Italia Boost SLR

Hey!

Curious if anyone has experience with both. I ride the 130 Boost SLR right now and would like to try the Power Mirror and trying to decide on 130 vs 143. Has anyone ridden both?

Terra Aero CLX vs Terra CLX III

Anybody ride both of these wheels? I kinda feel like having a 300+g lighter / more compliant wheel would be more my style vs being a little more aero, but I’m curious if someone has ridden both and noticed any difference .

Fit check

So I ride a lot and have been for years. Something always feels slightly off and I have a hard time dialing in my saddle fore aft. As you can see in the video I drop my heel a lot especially on the right side. When I was younger I broke my left femur on the growth plate and they had to do surgery to the right side to stop the growth of the femur also so my femurs are about 2 inches shorter than they would have been if I didn’t have the accident. Also due to this my right leg is about 18mm longer than the left. I do feel like the weight distribution of my fit can leave the front wheel feeling a bit loose in corners and stuff unless I purposely throw more weight to the front. Not exactly sure on reach either. Another thing is I have long arms. My wingspan is about 6’2” and I’m only 5’7”. I am riding 155 cranks in the photo. The seat tube angle is 72.5 with a 0 offset seat post a little forward of center of the rails. Is my saddle too far back? Reach too long? Curious what people think.

Snatch grip dead lift

Dead lifts kind of a problem lift for me can never tell if I’m doing it right. What you guys think. I always get a little weird in the beginning trying to figure out where to start from.

Anybody know or order anything recently from Italy ? I’m trying to order a saddle from selle Italia but I’m not sure what kind of tariff I may be hit with when it gets here to the US these days. Anyone have any info?

Leg length discrepancy

My left leg is 18mm shorter than my right leg, all in the femur, due to a childhood injury. Looks to cause some rocking . I also always seem to ride very elbows out. Not sure why.

FOX 34 SL air pressure

I’m about 180-185lbs ready to ride and when setting sag on my fox34 SL I have to run 120psi to get to 20% sag…. Which is also what Fox says is the max air pressure for the fork…. In the instructions they claim someone of my weight should be running 92psi. Is something going on here?

What’s it look like

I have weird proportions being that I have short legs and femurs due to an I just when I was younger. Also I’m 5’6” with a 6’2” wing span. I have a hard time fitting bikes and figuring out my fit. Curious if anyone sees anything that sticks out to them in this slow mo vid.

Ridin the 1 speed on some Jersey chunk

Spring is springing. I’ve always used Clipless for more roadish/gravel/fixed gear bikes but have only really used them mountain biking kinda rarely, but I will say it’s pretty nice, especially on techy stuff and single speed.

Anyone else have this problem? I’m 175lbs with strong legs from lifting weights and I tend to get enough flex out of my Neuhaus hummingbird core to get rotor rub pretty consistently. A honking screech every time you put power down on the non drive side isn’t what you wanna hear when your tryna get up something steep. Lol. Anyone else have this problem on this bike or another? Maybe something I can do to fix it.

Hey! I was curious if anyone else is running of the core collection versions of this bike single speed? I’m about a 175lbs with strong legs and I see to flex the rear end enough to get rotor rub on the rear brake when I’m out of the saddle pretty consistently. Anyone else have this problem?
