Sentinel? Looks great enjoy! All my bikes are broken in one way or another at the moment so new bike day is making me jealous.

That sucks, part of why at least one of my bikes is broken is because I also broke myself in the process. Fortunately I'm 3 weeks out from the crash and feeling 95% back. Wrist injuries are tough, back injuries are tougher, try Yoga for cyclists if you haven't already, it will have you screaming at first but after having some low back issues crop up from overuse/stress a few years ago, this is what did the trick for me,

The link automatically embeds itself and doesn't allow playback, if you click "watch on Youtube" you should be able to get it,

There is a shorter version on the DoYogaWithMe YT Channel as well, targeting Hips, Hamstrings and Low Back does wonders for anyone who spends time in the saddle. Not sure why the embedded link doesn't work on here. I try to avoid hip packs over 2.5 liters, anything beyond the weight of a cell phone, multitool tube and pump just seem to be too much to reliably carry on your waist. My next bike will likely have frame storage, curious to see if I can get away with ditching packs all together for good, I have issues wearing anything beyond a helmet, shorts, shoes and shirt on the bike. I like my freedom of motion and unrestricted movement while on the bike, that said, this latest crash absolutely was the result of my refusal to wear gloves outside of winter riding..

same 'ish, I just spent more than I paid for my first bike to get my old bike back trailworthy again... never thought about the weight of a fanny pack being an issue but it makes sense I guess I'll stick with the sweaty back for now

Did your greasy paw slip off? Hopefully not on a fast landing. That could hurt.
