Another FTP gain last night in the WTRL TTT on a tough course. Happy with that one and right on where I want to be and am aiming at staying for a while
FTP gains in the off season?! You’re crazy!!

The off-season for me will be trying to keep the weight stable while keeping some volume. Planning for 2021 has begun!With the huge rise in eracing, i suspect much like the pros many people won't have time off at all now, much like all us crazy CXers have been doing for years
I've let mine come down, with the onset of winter etc I don't want to be carrying too much fatigue and then get hit for 6 with a heavy cold, or the 'rona.My CTL is still mid 90's and I've not had any more than 2 days off in a row since as far back as I can remember.

Mines dropped down to mid 80s last few weeks mainly due to installing a bathroom on Saturdays so not getting a long ride in. Still hitting it hard mid week though. Looking forward to rest week next week. Same as you, I had 2 days off in a row for the first time than before lockdown I think (even after my accident) was when I got married the other week and was too hungover to ride the next day. Went for a jog though!My CTL is still mid 90's and I've not had any more than 2 days off in a row since as far back as I can remember.

If you and your LBS can identify exactly what you're missing and Fulcrum are unhelpful/delayed then I should have the parts for QR from my Racing 7's I'll never need to use I would happily send you...
I’ve recently used the stans stuff, but there might be better suggestions from others.I don't see how that can be if none of the top hat bits, will fit inside any of the other bits, or the wheel? Unless, the spindle should just be threaded through them and the spindle holds them in place? **EDIT** I forget now, maybe they went inside another peice, but basically there's only so many ways it can work and quite a few people have now failed to be able to put them together
Knoblies back on the CXR today and off I went. Really nice ride...
About 500m after that photo, I had a flat again, so I don't think it's the tyre pressure. Decided just to patch it, again the slit was on the inside of the tube, opposite side of the valve where the rim tape was out of place. I wondered if I patched it, that bit would be stronger and might help? A couple of miles later it was going down again, so I decided to just put a new tube in. This time, I used some of the sticky patches to stick the rim tape in place. That seemed to work and I did the 13 miles home with no issue.
I thought I was buying sticky rim tape before... but I wasn't. Can anyone link to some, or can I just use some stick take to cover these abrasive holes in the rim?
It's pretty simple so can't see why it can't be done to be honest.
Latex aren’t more puncture proof, they’re lighter? Going tubeless would eliminate all these punctures you’ve had from the spoke holes.I think I'm talking to myself in here now Someone today mentioned to me latex inner tubes. Does anyone have experience? Apparently much more puncture resistant. I can see some that will be good for the CXR, but would love to use one on my road bike, but I can only see 48mm Presta, I think I need at least 60mm. Anyone know of any?
