Slap some sense in me if needed:
-Running a bb30/gxp adapter on my tt bike, I have a gxp quarq and everything is fine, on a scale ranging from "stupid" to "might be worth a try" would getting a eccentric BB and have it in the lowest position be worth a crack? I've heard from a couple reliable sources that 8-10mm has a 10watt advantage. I'm ok shooting $20-$30 for a Chinese BB and seeing where that goes.
-Just as silly: I'm getting a 175mm SRM in the mail, I run a quarq-riken on rival 165mm arms, seems that options to trying something shorter with power is hard to find (only rotor/p2m for crank based?). The SRM is on hollowgram arms, these seem to have a straight flat section, again on a scale to "idiot" to "make us laugh" could I have a machinist cut the arms and weld them back to 155-160mm?
I'm not super attached to the 175mm arms, pretty confident there is space to loose 15-25mm on a 175mm arm, just need to be 100% that the machinist can weld it straight and that both arms are the same length (I know aluminum is harder to weld).
Curious to hear comments and thoughts (or hope you had a good laugh)
