While it is rare these days, I do from time to time take the Train out to ride some routes I’ve not done before. This was a memorable one because of this amazing descent.
Also a little bit of a recap and a few tips on how you’d bring a bike on a train, from local trains to the bullet trains, aka Shinkansen

Only someone who has reached your level of production skill while keeping their feet firmly on the ground (i.e., zero inflated ego) could jump to the conclusion that they're being criticised, not praised! 😂 You are clearly very talented, on top of being hard working. You're possibly an extreme perfectionist who only sees the flaws in their own work. We, on the outside, see excellent results informed by superlative creative instincts. Keep on doing what you're doing.

    • Inga problem här. Var lite knepigt med Chris King bb när det blev dubbla plast sleeves. Men med THM BB har jag inte haft några problem, dom är .5mm ”smalare”. Så det kan hända att du måste experimentera med plast brickorna (shims) för att få det perfekt med ett annat bb än thm. Från din beskrivning låter det som om NDS ”cone sleeve” sitter för lång ut.
