... a) haven't had the impression it lasts anything good (even w/o rivercrossings) but more importantly
b) it always clogs to complete uselessness.
Basically a pain in the ass to use (had to use grass stems for every drip) and with to be expected low performance.
I'll go back to Silca Synergetic for race use: tried and proven!

Can't recommend. Tested on the Silk Road Mountain Race.
So a few weeks back I wrote that I'll try this Trutension cycle Banana Slip Drip Lube.
Reason: it tests similar to the proven Silca Synergetic, is also kind of a drip wax like Silca Super Secret Chain coating yet promises near instant ready time after application (5-10 mins).
So far, so good.
But...

Immersive Waxing... wrote about it why it's so-so for ultracycling and actually confirmed it sort of because the wax only lasted to the first thunderstorm and not even the first 12 hours of the race... Oh well - it got waxed again as I'm now at home again and for daily riding it's fine. 😅

Can't get my head around the #Japanese track bikes having the #drivetrain on the left side. Kind of triggers some kind of OCD I'm not sure I even had! #ParisOlympics #paris2024 #Japan

Yes, that is a Sram XO Eagle Transmission Cassette and RD.
And it's running with a non flattop chain and matched to a Shimano XTR chainring.
Connex by Wippermann showed it at Cyclingworld Europe behind acrylic and it ran very rough...

Look what I just found!
Very interesting chainring solutions. Including Sram AXS. They even got AXS direct mount spiders!
And they have nice Shimano XT/XTR direct mount chainrings, too. 👍

It just occurred to me that everybody riding a 1x mullet setup with his Gravel bike (and most probably does so with a SRAM over a Shimano GRX drivetrain) really opted for the worst of all the possible drivetrain efficiency downfalls: He not only suffers "cross chaining" efficiency losses in the outermost cogs of the cassette but also does so with the worst of all chains - the conventional Eagle AXS chain! Yikes! (see my previous posts to see why)
-
Here the chart with the results. Be aware that the horizontal axis is not watts saved but seems to indicate a very rough 2 Watts per 1.5 ticks ratio. For a clean chain. May sound very minuscule but keep in mind a) 2 Watts more loss from an around 4 Watts "best" chain is already 50 % more loss and b) these losses become amplified the longer the chain gets exposed to road/trail grit and grime.

That's where my friend broke his #derailleur hanger: it snapped when he carried his bike across barriers https://mas.to/@Anibyl/110412407608382068
With help of a passerby he managed to convert his 1x11 #drivetrain to a #SingleSpeed one.
Hangers fatigue and break, especially when riding off-road; it's better to be ready for that: carry spare hanger, chain breaker, pliers, chain link. We had only a chain breaker 😔
I've also heard that gearhubs are pretty reliable 😜
-
If you ride single-speed, or with hub gears, there's a revolutionary upgrade available for you right now!
Make your chain last AT LEAST 3.5 times longer, while making your drive-train more efficient.

Data science people:
Is Jeremy Howard's Drivetrain approach still discussed?
Has it been superseded by other approaches to building data-driven products?
I can basically find one nice essay by him & some collaborators on it, but not much since then.
Thanks!
