All Reviews

The reviewer is currently testing the 10PLUS T Series Carbon Wheels on a Trek Domane SL5 and provides initial impressions. They note that the wheels are in the $300-$400 price bracket, which has few options, and offer good value for money. A full review will come after at least 500 km of riding.

The reviewer describes the Xiaomi Mijia Electric Bike Pump 2 as a home-use pump that is his most frequently used pump despite owning many others. He highlights its ease of use: set target pressure, connect, press button, and it stops automatically. He notes it is not portable for jersey pockets and is loud. He emphasizes buying the second generation for USB-C charging.

The reviewer praises the ONIRII PD-06 pedals after 10,000 km of use, highlighting their carbon fiber body, titanium axle, and SPD-SL compatibility. They note the pedals are cheaper and lighter than Shimano and Bontrager alternatives, with clean clip-in/out and adjustable tension. The only downside mentioned is overpaying at $110 when the current price is $69.

The reviewer tests the Coospo S10 Spider Power Meter on a Shimano 105 crankset, highlighting its affordable price of under $150, solid carbon fiber build, and ease of installation. He measures accuracy against a reference power meter, finding about a 3% difference in average and normalized power, which he considers acceptable for the price. The reviewer concludes that the Coospo S10 is a great budget option for cyclists looking to start using a power meter, offering reliable data and good battery life.

The reviewer found the COOSPO S10 Spider Bike Power Meter Easton to be an affordable entry into power-based training, praising its compatibility with Easton cranksets and lightweight design. He noted that it significantly improved his climbing endurance and overall training by providing real-time power data, though he experienced some data refresh delays and uncertainty about its consistency.

The reviewer discusses a budget-friendly disc brake mount facing tool kit from China, priced at £50, which uses a grinding disc instead of a cutting head and faces both mounts simultaneously. He demonstrates its use on a bike frame, noting it effectively resolves brake rubbing issues caused by uneven mounts. The tool is aimed at modern road and gravel bikes with 100mm front and 142mm rear axles.

The reviewer briefly discusses the ZRACE UNCHAINED crankset, describing it as an ultralight and affordable option. He mentions its weight, cost, and that he pairs it with Dura-Ace chainrings on his road bike.

The reviewer mentions using Magene P715 power meter pedals to record power during an event. He describes them as super accurate but notes they are a bit heavy.

The reviewer discusses the ONIRII PD-06 pedals, noting they are very light (180g) and cheap (under £50), but expresses concern about durability based on experience with similar pedals that wore out after 5,000-6,000 km due to the carbon composite retention clip and frontal engagement area wearing. He suggests they may have a limited lifespan but still considers them worth considering for weight savings.

The reviewer discusses the ROCKBROS road bike pedals, noting they are lightweight (180g per pair), cheap (under 50 quid), and made from carbon fiber reinforced polymer with titanium axles. They are Shimano compatible and offer good initial build quality, easy clipping, and adjustable tension. However, the reviewer expresses concern about long-term durability based on a previous experience with similar AliExpress pedals (Oniri PD-06) that developed excessive play after 5,000-6,000 km due to wear on the composite retention clip and front impact area. The reviewer has ridden the ROCKBROS pedals for 500 km without issues but predicts they may fail similarly.

The reviewer tests the CYCPLUS AS2 Ultra Tiny E-Pump, comparing it to larger models in size, weight, and performance. It is slightly smaller and lighter than the standard size, but not significantly. It successfully inflated three tires to 70 PSI before running out, with each fill taking about 1 minute 20 seconds. The pump's pressure accuracy was consistent but read about 3 PSI low. It has a USB-C charging port and a silicon case for protection. The reviewer notes compatibility issues with ClickValve and Schrader valves, requiring an adapter, but it can be used without it with more force. Overall, the reviewer recommends it for those needing extra space, but prefers the larger model for an extra tire inflation.

The reviewer discusses the ZTTO Ultraight 11/12 Speed Road Bike Cassette, specifically the 'Ultimate Gen 2' model. They note it is lighter than Dura-Ace, costs only a quarter of the price, and is entirely steel except for the final sprocket which is aluminum. They have about 400 km on it and find its performance on par with Dura-Ace, provisionally rating it S tier pending further durability testing.

The reviewer highly recommends the SPEDAO 12-speed MTB cassette for gravel use, noting it is lightweight, durable, and excellent value. They have used it extensively in racing and training, finding it comparable to higher-end options like SRAM XX1 but at a fraction of the cost.

The reviewer praises the ZTTO Ultimate Gen 2 cassette, noting it is lighter than Dura-Ace but costs only a quarter of the price. They have used it for about 400 km and find its performance on par with Dura-Ace, with good durability expected. They provisionally rate it S tier.
