Wheel Decals ❌ or ✅?

Just fitted some Vision 34mm deep Carbon wheels that have some very subtle (almost invisible black decals).

Should I get some silver decals as per the AI image here?

Power Consumption on TT App via Android Auto.

I've been testing the TomTom app versus Google Maps versus Waze on Android Auto. My conclusions are that sadly the TomTom app draws far more power than the other two.

​

Whilst I prefer the look and operation of the TomTom app, I cannot get over the fact that it draws more power from my phone, which is a deal-breaker on longer routes.

​

I also find that the TomTom app doesn't allow for selecting alternative routes once the route has been programmed and this again is another downside for me.

​

Can anyone at TomTom fix this please?

Alloy v carbon Wheels

I want to add faster, lighter wheels to my carbon gravel bike, but at a reasonable cost (Upto £700).

​

Do I go for a good allotment wheel set, or entry level carbon wheelset?

​

What do you all recommend?

Integrated Stem on Topstone Carbon 2

Hi, has anyone fitted integrated one-piece carbon bars and how did you get on replacing the C1 Conseal Stem?

​

Does an integrated set up fit the head tube ok?

TomTom Android App

Hi,

Does anyone know how to integrate the TomTom app on Android with Google Calendar such that when you go into Android Auto, it automatically pops up to ask you if you want to navigate to your calendar entry in much the same way that Waze and Google Maps do?

Discharging enen when charging.... 🤔

How can my Phone use so much power even when wireless charging? The first screenshot is whilst wirelessly charging, yet still using 10w of power.

Google seriously need to optimise the efficiency of Android Auto, and deal with the overheating issues of the P10.

Google Calendar / Maps Integration

I have a Pixel 10 Pro XL and have both Waze and Google Maps installed.

When I have an appointment in my calendar with an address it is only Waze that reminds when to leave.

How can I configure Maps/Calendar to send me a similar notification?

Upgraded Wheels

I have a Topstone Carbon 2 whose wheels I am told are of dubious quality.

Is it's worth fitting some good aluminium wheels or, should I spend more and get some carbon wheels?

I am trying to work out why AA draws so much power when in use, particularly over wireless connection.

My only other option is to try a Qi2 wireless charger.

I also wonder whether using Sugic mapping (which uses downloaded maps instead of using requiring a data connection such as Google Maps, Waze, TomTom) would draw less power

Anyone had any other experiences?

Hi, When using Android auto in my car, even on a wireless charger, the phone is losing power. (Streaming the radio and using Waze/Google Maps.

Does anyone else notice how much battery AA uses?
