Won’t matter. The above doesn’t depend on rate. Increase the pressure by deceasing the volume and you end up with a higher temperature. You lose some heat due to radiation and convection but that’s only a small part of the equation.
Thanks. The last physics class I took was in high school many years ago.

Thanks for all the replies.

​​​​​​Went with the Blackburn Mammoth. $20 bucks. Works great. Does not heat up.

Now I need to find a spot for a bottle cage. The frame only has mounts on the downtube.
