i tried all 3 systems before, i dont get sram single lever system. as for campagnolo, the pattern is roughly the same as shimano with a thumb lever to downshift, but then difference is campag can downshift all the way

I only use flat bar shifters for both shimano and sram.

I will use shimano flat bar shifters over sram any time.

I went to do a bit of googling and reading up.

The loud clunk sound i hear when i pushed down hard on the pedal (during moving off) can be due to a few things, but all that i read never mention about wheel hub.

Without the proper tools, how do i check for loose pedal or BB? Anyone know?

TIA.

bb wont lose de especially if ht2, the cups if loose your crank will fly out

as for pedals just use a wrench and tighten,

sometimes might also got the sound but i dont bother

Me not really bothered as i don't feel anything yet. Just thought i can find out what it is before it developed into something more serious (and expensive)...

Thanks!

Just bought a bone conduction headphone for my ride. The vibration quite shiok but might not be for everyone. Can hear traffic still especially when heavy vehicle or buses behind. Bass cannot compare with normal in ear but all for safety sake. Some may find it as dual distraction when riding on road, so far ok for me...hear wind and music simultaneously. Platronics relegated for public transport commute riao
