| Nov 30, 2020 at 23:20 | comment | added | Job Van den Berghe | @DanielRHicks I've noticed that it usually happens after one to three/four full pedal rotations, could it still be what you suggest it to be? | |

| Nov 29, 2020 at 2:28 | comment | added | Job Van den Berghe | @DanielRHicks how would I go about determining if this is the case? | |
