I use copper anti seize not nickel because I was told it is better for the peiodic table galvanic thingy. I admit I didnt check. The bike was put together with koprkote and I have just followed that example as I have enough tubs of both Cu and Ni products to antiseize everything into the next millenium courtesy of a project or three.Ti anti-sieze paste? Any Ti riders out there used it? Good/no good? Or as You Tube reviewers like to ask "worth it?".
I tend to favour nickel anti-seize purely because it’s a bit less “active”. I’ve found in the past the copper stuff is great until it runs out of material to offer up for galvanic sacrifice and then just corrodes everything together like a bastard. It’s probably just a hangover from aviation work though where there’s often a lot different metals at play all in a small area, often also with lots of heat cycling and moisture present.I use copper anti seize not nickel because I was told it is better for the peiodic table galvanic thingy.

Use carbon grip paste for the seatpost. The carrier is usually a high quality silicon grease.Thanks. I saw something about it and wondered if I should use it on BB's etc. I have used good waterproof grease for now. Also, having a bit of trouble getting the seat post to grip and thought it might help to stop from slipping like carbon paste. Don't want to crank it down too hard.

It's all about the brako greaseI tend to favour nickel anti-seize purely because it’s a bit less “active”.

Geebus, how much of that do you have in your draw at home?It's all about the brako grease
EDIT: Whoops "braycote"
Fuck it, if we’re going full aviation-spec on our bikes - I’m going to hit my next dropper post installation up with a hearty smear of mastinox!It's all about the brako grease

Surprisingly none. Ran out a fair while ago.Geebus, how much of that do you have in your draw at home?
I think I will just stick to plain old high grade silver anti-seize

From my limited understanding, it would do wonders for you. Keep them in zone 2 as much as possible.Quick one for those that understand training/recovery stuff.
Is there any benefit or disbenefit to doing two recovery rides in one day? Starting to crank up the k’s from my lowly base and was thinking of doing 30min slow recovery spins in the morning and evening.
Training to your heart rates variability trend indications, HRV, is a much more potent method of maximising training results.Quick one for those that understand training/recovery stuff.

You're effectively doing what I do commuting to work. I do my high load training on my week off work, light load on my week on. By the time my work week is over I'm ready to train again.Quick one for those that understand training/recovery stuff.
