I have a VB-R-066. I first built it up using this upper headset assembly from Ritchey. It enables the hydraulic hoses to enter the frame via the headset dust cover, so you can use a separate handlebar and stem. Great if you want to reuse existing parts you have, or if you want to easily swap handlebar and stem for fit reasons without cutting any hoses.[...] Later I swapped to this Kocevlo integrated handlebar, trading function for form: https://vi.aliexpress.com/item/1005006561735597.html
Both fit the frame. I had to sand the Kocevlo dust cover a little to prevent rubbing on the frame after tightening everything down, but that was straightforward.

2025-06-02 by pushpush Echoing previous comments. Buy the shimano rings and be happy.

There's not much point buying Stone or Pass Quest in these circumstances when real 105 chainrings are substantially cheaper (unless you need an unusual combo that 105 doesn't offer):

i've got these that are cheap, narrow and flared

36cm tops with 43cm drops

My brother is using his X2 since October now and his girlfriend bought an X2Max in January. Both still going strong so far with zero issues. With the pricing in germany the X2Max is half the price of the kickr core. If i had to choose again i would probably go for the thinkrider instead of the wahoo.

I don't know why you have cyclite in mind specifically, but I have these 2 and have nothing bad to say about either. They're really really good and dirt cheap

I also have them, they are fine after 4k km, no lost bottles over rough tarmac but they scratch your bidons

I recently bought two of these because narrow

Haven't ridden them, but friends didn't complain

I'm using this: SENICX T47 68mm Ceramic Bottom Bracket Suitable for Shimano/SRAM GXP Road Bike Crank 24mm Shaft Gravel Bicycle Central Movement. 1100km on it, perfect still, I don't ride much in the rain though

I have the same pair of centerlock 160mm rotors on two of my road bikes. They work great especially for the price.

I have centerlock discs from them in 160/140 and I'm happy with the performance.

I know multiple people here said to have ordered some but never posted a review to my knowledge. I've put them through 300km with 8500m of elevation and I'm very, very happy with them. They've replaced RT64s on my gravel bike and I never imagined rotors could make such a braking performance improvement. I will buy another pair for my road wheels with ultegra too.

Here's a recommendation for body diverse ladies like me,
my recommendation for bibshorts is this Ykywbike:

Points I like:
- Pad is comfortable for many hours on the saddle
- High waisted, so it holds the belly
- The leg length is enough to cover the calves, making it a good option to pair with long socks, and avoid the leg UV cover altogether.
- Mesh behind the knees and on the back, to help with heat dissipation
- Leg anti slip is the same quality I have on my other bib from Northwave (EU brand)

(If you're also a non-magazine model lady like me, please share your recommendations! <3)

Last batch of winter stuff:
- Thinner base layer: Very versatile, I can see myself using it for summer too, but I've used it when I wasn't quite ready for just short sleeve jersey but too warm for windbreaker/thicker darevie base layer, around 12c. Still gives some warmth I think, worth it

Last batch of winter stuff:
- Another very cheap rsantce thermal : -I nbike long sleeve summer jersey : My tanlines have moved to my wrist. Color is darker than it seems from their pictures (white). Fit is impeccable. Keep in mind they use EU sizing, I bought M. Big fan. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005008604466255.html

Last batch of winter stuff:

• West biking helmet : My point of reference is my Lazer Z1. A little warmer which was to be expected as it's got less ventilation, but it puts the lazer to shame in overall build quality (in appearance, I've obviously not crash tested it and have no intention to). Straps are great, ALL the padding is much faster to dry and much smoother, and the adjusting is in another league (perhaps says more about how shit adjusting is on lazer's proprietary dial...). As a bonus I think I look less mushroomy. I'm happy with it
