Well done for highlighting prostate cancer on the show. I was diagnosed at 47! I had zero symptoms, but a PSA test highlighted some high numbers. I had the option to have my prostate robotically removed which I opted for. Amazing results. Do not be scared of getting checked, the treatments these days are amazing, and no, I didn’t need to take that much time off the bike.

Thankyou for talking about mental health. I'm a 47 year old man. I was diagnosed with depression at 17 and looking back was depressed since about 11. I've had all the treatment the NHS is offering (CBT, psychologist etc) and those things have run out for me. I still have a psychiatrist but they are not willing to change my meds as the cocktail I am on is big. They are keeping me stable for the most part. Men definitely need to open up more and talk about the things that are bothering them and let out their emotions more rather than just bottling everything up. I wish I had done this when I was younger maybe I wouldn't be like I am now. I have been thinking of taking up cycling and for the past few months been looking in to things and hopefully will be getting my bike next week. I just want to get fitter and get out and do something. I'm next to the Peak District so I have a lot of places to ride. Loving the podcast I look forwards to every episode. I do have a question for Nick. The bike I am getting can have up to 42mm tyres am I too heavy at 95kg (6'3 tall but I still need to lose weight) for tubeless? What tyre widths could I use?

As a GP, PSA tests need to be carefully considered as it’s not a very specific test for cancer. 3 in 4 men with a raised PSA will not have cancer. But to find out if it is significant you will need to probably have quite invasive tests to biopsy your prostate. Also a large amount of prostate cancer is low grade and does not require treatment and in fact the treatments are more detrimental to a man’s health. The PSA test is therefore not robust enough to screen a population for cancer, unlike breast, bowel and cervical cancer screening, where early diagnosis saves a lot of lives and the tests/checks are much better and specific for cancer. If >65 and have symptoms then defo get checked.

Sorry disagree with you. The PSA test is not perfect but it's the best test we have without getting a biopsy done. Only for the PSA test I wouldn't have been diagnosed with Prostate Cancer at 46. Might of been dead now only for it... if there is a history of prostate cancer in your family you need to get tested yearly from age 40, tested from age 45 if no history in your family.

Excellent pod as usual, really good to see you exploring men's health issues, particularly MH. As a long time sufferer with unwanted black dog, it's REALLY IMPORTANT to talk to someone, to get help, to open up. I can remember wanting to chuck myself in front of trains, crying in public, and generally falling apart. I needed some help, and thankfully, I got it. PLEASE NOTE: the NHS MH services are (and always have been) appallingly under-resourced relative to physical illness. It's not because the people are bad, it's because there isn't enough service to go round. Personally, I use cycling as much for therapy as exercise or enjoyment - it's literally a lifeline for me. Final point, thanks to Nic for his contribution, I'm not his biggest fan but he does add a certain...frisson

i think Nic might be slightly mistaken on ceramic bearings. He's correct that the ball bearings are ceramic and the race is a treated steel or alloy but they definitely don't last longer. The ceramic ball bearing has a hardness of rockwell C 75, even with the treated steel that he's talking about our technology only brings steel up to Rockwell C 60ish, which doesn't seem like much but that means the harder ceramic bearing will wear away the steel race over time. Repeat that over a few hundred km's you'll not only be causing premature wear but also losing watts. Steel on steel bearings are still currently the best for longevity. assuming no corrosion.

A friend of mine was experiencing severe mental and drug related issues a few years ago. I cant remember the exact waiting time but after reaching out to his GP, the wait for a therapist appointment was several months and then the following appointment was several months again. Fortunately, he reached out to friends and covid came at a perfect time for him to do a total reset, he managed to give up the drugs and alcohol, and started running. He has managed to totally turn his life around but with the waiting time being several months, I can see why some people who don't have a support network or are afraid of opening up to people may not be so lucky. I understand the NHS is stretched to breaking point but for something that kills such a huge proportion of men, the amount of time after first contact with the GP and seeing a therapist is far too large.

As is usually the case with Auto manufacturers, there are two types of recalls. One is a voluntary recall, which is the case with SRAM as they have identified an issue before tonnes of people have been affected by it. Then there is the case with Shimano, which is an involuntary/forced recall, after much public outcry and force of class action lawsuit. As for Nick's point on how torquing as a method of tightening bolts to a correct pre-load measurement being a dark art is quite apt description. Per AJAX Fastener Hand Book, feel/operator judgement's accuracy is around 35% while torque wrenches operate at around 25% accuracy. The gold standard of measuring pre-load is Strain Gauges, which would cost 20 times more than use of a torque wrench. Many factors, including surface texture (cut or rolled threads), surface coatings/lubrication, thread interference, and speed of tightening affect the torque-tension relationship and up to 25% variation in pre-load can be measured on similar fasteners receiving identical torque. The minimum standard recommended for consistency in controlled tightening of fasteners is light oil lubrication. For instance a standard finish bolt that is recommended with 10 Nm tightening torque is valid for light oil lubrication, if you use grease/anti-seize the toque needs to adjusted by a factor of 0.7 and even then this is a guide. On the mental health side of things, I think the issue is always the fact that most of us are not very good at noticing the issues. Moreover, we live in a day and age that many are addicted to various things (phones, i-media in general, added sugar in our food, ...); thus, mood swings are quite common across wide spectrum of people. Another issue is that most of us including myself think of ourselves as experts in various fields with just reading a book or a news snippet. So, the issue of mental health is not just matter of opening up to friends and colleagues; rather being more in touch with our inner self to figure out what's actually going on within us. This is further highlighted on the first overrated/underrated section question. People these days are so focused on the outside world that they can't make up their own mind. If you enjoy cycling, you should just ride because you enjoy it. Alas, we feel the need to be validated by others, whether positive or negative. 31:50 I don't believe that we are programmed to put up a mask to show the best of us in social settings. We are rather pressured to do so from early age. Have you ever noticed that kids do what they like to do, because they just like to do it. As adults we are just not in-tune with our true emotions anymore.

Huge props to talking about mental health. It's a subject that's still not talked about enough, though the stigma is being lifted slowly. Mental health, is health. I went through some very dark days back in 2012, and managed to get through it despite being THAT idiot that basically pretended it wasn't happening and masked it with drinking / overeating and such, getting overweight and thus making worse still - something that's not uncommon. It ended up with me driving on the M6 toll road at the fastest my car would drive (don't ask) looking for things to crash into. Very fortunately, I had a local mate send a message out of the blue (not related to this), and an amazingly supportive wife and set of friends that helped me get through it all. It's a reason why people, especially us men, need to be more open and frank, and not be afraid to tell someone in confidence that you're not well. The brain / mind is a part of the body, and you go to the doctor when it doesn't work. It's also made me much more acutely aware when friends might need a very simple 'You OK mate, fancy a brew?' or just 'We love you and we're always here to help and support you'.

Great episode featuring health issues. Please get your PSA Count checked with a blood sample, it is so simple and saved my dad's life a few years ago. A work colleague (49 year old) had his checked last November - no underlying issues but a high reading, had a biopsy and is fortunately cancer free thank goodness, just going to be monitored over the coming months. Keep up the good work guys, these Podcasts get better and better.
To explain Nic's talk about torque specs, torque rating + indication of thread prep (dry, greased, threadlocked) is a surface-level, rough indicator for setting bolt/screw tension, which pedantically can only be accurately measured by strain gauges. In the cycling industry, there's just no real practical way except to start on lower ballpark torque values, then slowly driving the faetener further until specific parameters are met, e.g. tightening lever clamp bolts until the lever does not move off-position under use-case load. I am guessing that SRAM provides their 'solution' of wearing out the excess loctite as legalities has them stuck to standing by the torque specs they disseminated. Practically, the threadlock problem does not matter. If it's unreasonably loose, ignore previous torque specs, tighten it 1/12 of a turn (equivalent of turning the allen key such that where the corner of the hexagon was is now the middle of the flat side), ride it, rinse and repeat until the lever is reasonably secure. You will eventually reach the bolt tension that the torque value originally translates to and no damage will happen to your handlebars.

Where does this fit in with cycling ? If I wasn’t so fit through cycling I would have almost certainly expired last May. Cycling as often as possible around my chemo , is an essential part of my treatment. Not just for the physical circulation benefits, but for the mental health benefits too. Cancer as I’m sure many of your viewers / listeners will agree with is a very lonely and tiring condition. Getting out on my bike on the road or Zwift really helps me get through each week , and my prognosis is very good. Ref influencers/ social media. Some great points on the podcast , I have a few go to channels and I enjoy them all, others I drift in and out of. One word of warning though. Be careful who you challenge in the comments.

I agree it is not a SRAM recall, a recall is sending the item back etc. it is what we call in aviation a SB - service bulletin where it ask for companies/people to check/insp/adjust some thing to make sure it is correct as there been some reports of a issue, there is normally a feed back process of the findings, and if it is more people report issues after insp, it is a bigger issue and they can up what needs to be done, like full replacement or better insp.

best opening conv ever.... Ox. I had to take my wife to the GP doctor for a follow up post surgery, and while I was waiting on her, she made an appt for me to have a physical as I had not had one since I got out of the military over 30 years ago. So I've got that going for me.

Overseer is a delicate word. Curious about the ownership structure behind the corporate veil - does Shimano or it's owners have a stake in these other companies?

Re ceramic bearings, about 5 years ago I was involved in developing fpv quadcopters for racing, they started using ceramic bearings on the motors. The major difference seeemd to be the nature of failure, - steel bearings fail over time, you can feel,them going, you know you need to change them most of the time. Ceramic ones stayed smooth until they failed, catastrophically

👍 for the health segment! Also health: loose bolts. On a downhill in the Alps my handlebar suddenly turned loose because the screws weren't tightend enough or correctly by the bike shop: Their comment: we tightend it according to the manufactueres specs. Well obviously not sufficient. I was able to stop without a crash and found a more careful bike shop.

I did get those Amazon gloves through the dud affiliate link. Worked perfectly, warm, waterproof and cheap. Although they obviously aren’t breatheable at all so if it gets slightly warmer during your ride they will be soaked through with sweat and are hard to dry

Stainless steel bearings are usually softer than regular carbon steel bearings. There is less carbon in stainless steel, so it is often not as hard. In my experience they don't rust, but they wear out just the same in my riding environment. There are full ceramic bearings in some jockey wheels like from kogel and ceramicspeed. But for wheels, hubs and bottom brackets, they are too fragile. Ceramic bearings are a waste of time and money. The price does not always reflect the quality and they don't last as long as advertised.

Think you'll find Hope Technology are based in Barnoldswick, Lancashire, not the Hope Valley in the Peak District 😂 Apart from that, another great podcast as usual, especially focusing on mental health, something I suffer from on a regular basis, but helped immensely by riding my bike 😊

Heard you say this twice now about lifetime warranty. ENVE now only does 5 year warranty according to their website then afterwards offers crash replacement discount. Zipp, Reserve, Roval and some other brands have lifetime warranty and even some brands like you said have conditions for that. Owing a pair of Reserve wheels and having to warranty a front wheel when I hit a pothole they were amazing to work with they got me a new wheel in less than a week no questions asked

re: mental health. The biggest problem in addressing issues is thinking things aren't bad enough and/or the doctor won't understand. Just go and tell the truth. Doctors have heard it all before and will not think you're weird or whiny etc. And mental health issues can be addressed with so many strategies. Don't listen to your friend who tells you to eat broccoli and think good thoughts.

Yeah, vinted is great for cycling bargains. With a bit of patience you can get a set of cycling clothing of decent quality especially some of the more expensive items like winter jackets.
