I had zero chance to dial it in before Sundays event. Hopefully I can get the rollers out this week and do some more adjusting. I’m generally pretty comfortable in the extensions, and I don’t actually like the feel of the base bar - so there’s no huge temptation to use them unless I want to pull on them.
I’ve managed to get a late entry for a TT on Sunday, so keen to try and iron things out a little bit before then.
I need to do more miles on the TT bike, but I’m going to see if my road bike wheels fit tonight - more comfortable and less puncture anxiety for training! Buying tubs is already expensive, so I’d rather buy TT ones for £30 each, rather than pay twice that just for some puncture resistance while also suffering worse rolling resistance.
As for moving forward, I’ll make some adjustments and take more photos - what you’re saying definitely sounds about right!
