Requesting that picture of two skeletons, one on a bike set up with a prollyfit and its spine is all scrunched up, the other on a long and low setup with nice pelvic roll and a straight back. Anyone?

As someone who can only use concave, yes.

This is so helpful. Thank you.
Yeah that’s really cool.
That’s awesome. Max, have you ever used Shimano DX flats? If you like concave you’ll like them I bet.
They’re on my bike right now! And I do love them! Hah.
Convex puts pressure on a vein malformation in my right foot. The Shimano pedals have been awesome for two years.
Are the red lines just for concave/convex reference? I’d be interested in seeing how the width compares.
However, I’m usually more interested in the overall platform size, because big feet.
Yeah red lines for concavity ref. I think the idea is that you can get a reasonable idea of platform size from mfr specs, but not of concavity nor how much the spindle/bearings protrude above the foot bed.
the spindle shoving up into the footbed is my biggest complaint with the super low profile flat pedals of late. Oh cool, I too could make a super thin pedal body but if the spindle is twice as thick what the fuck is the point.
I find that flat (i.e. not concave) pedals work best for me. It’s probably because I like to put my arch over the spindle when descending. Other people must do this, too, as OneUp’s pedals have a mild convex profile. Might be time to revisit the uber-huge Catalyst platforms.
This isn’t really a secret, but that Shimano plunger cup thing that threads onto the brake lever bleed port is the truth.
Yeah, the little oil toilet thing? I love it, it’s great liquid management, particularly compared to the awkwardness of most tire sealant injectors/hoses.
Oil toilet! I’ll never call it anything else again.

the addition of the plunger is amazing.

I was very pleased to find out that a 10 speed 11-40 Sunrace cassette works like a bought one without a THL with my old school SRAM X0 rear dangler.
I’d had it lying about without a project until my shimano cassette ass-ploded on me. I’d never come across this kind of failure before, myself.
