That crank arm needs to be at 3 o clock!

I’ve been given a Rudy Project Boost 01 by a mate to use while he can’t exercise. Not really sure why but I accepted it anyway! 
Anyone know how this stacks up against the Kask Bambino (think it was the 1st version) that I currently have?
I’m guessing, as a complete noob, that the Kask will be slightly more aero. But also hotter and noisier?

With those short shorts you will be looking hot enough

My recollection from the many ST threads I’ve read id that the Rudy (and to be fair I can’t tell you which model) isn’t usually very fast on most people. Sometimes it’s really fast but depends on body position & needs to be confirmed by aero testing. So basically it’s a no unless you can test it. The LG, Advantage and Aerohead are the ones that are good on most people so the sensible choice if you can’t test.

The Aerohead is akin to frying your brain whilst at a Roni Size concert.
I’ve had both types, the Ultimate and the vented one.
I’m just about getting my hearing back from Outlaw last year.
I wouldn’t recommend it if you want comfort. I always feel
Slightly dizzy after wearing it, plus have a bit of “fluffy” vision.
The Giro Advantage is proper old school and is decent.
I had one or two of them last time round.
I’d recommend that one.
I raised my clip on aerobars 20mm and as I expected the gear cables are now really tight. I was thinking that the front cable housing needs to be longer as I turn the handlebars my gears shift. Am I correct with this assumption and if I just need cable housing, any recommendations?
Have you tried just loosening the cable?
Depends how short your cables are. If they are long enough then you can simply replace a bit of the housing with a longer bit. Or you might need to buy a few cables.
Won’t that just leave me with loose cables that don’t shift properly?
That is what I was wondering. I have a couple of centimetres ‘spare’. Might loosen them as @BadAsh suggests which will tell me if I need new cables and housing.

It’s to do with aero, but definitely not “on a budget”!
1:15 saving for 180k seems huge for what is such a tiny component?!

Didn’t Simon Yates wear a similar one to his tt victory in the giro recently as well?

Looking for some sunglasses (less than £100) that have good visibility for TT position. Rim/frameless the way to go?
Maybe some Oakley Evzero Oakley EVZERO Blade Prizm Sunglasses | Merlin Cycles although slightly cheaper preferred!
Click, click, scroll - found these at £55 Tifosi Rail Sunglasses | Merlin Cycles
I’ve got a pair that are very similar to those.
The lenses are clear but react with sunlight - really rate them, they’re my go to now

I picked up a pair of those last year in the sigma sports sale. For TT if you can find the road prizm lens it might be a better choice as the pink brightens things whilst taking away the glare of the sun

Why would you wear shades for a TT?
Helmets all have visors on these days…,
…have I missed something?

My visor was vile today. Got all misted and sweaty, could barely see a f**king thing going into the sun. Took it off for the final rep and it was miles better!
Maybe some people use a standard helmet still - shocking I know
