The reviewer discusses alloy bolt-in bar end plugs as a general product category, but does not specifically mention the 'RIDERACE Bicycle Handlebar End Plugs Aluminum Alloy For MTB Mountain Bike Road Cycling Handle Bar Grips Cap Multi-color Cover' by name. They state that plastic bar end plugs pop out, get lost, and look cheap, while alloy non-branded bolt-in bar end plugs make a bike look finished. They mention that most brand-name alloy bolt-in bar ends cost around $20-$30 per set, but the ones they found cost $7 for a set. They also mention ordering extra pairs for future bikes.

AI Summary

  • Make your rig look finished
  • Bolt-in design prevents them from popping out or getting lost
  • Much cheaper than brand-name versions ($7 vs $20-$30)

Cons

The reviewer discusses TPU inner tubes from AliExpress in general but does not specifically mention the CYCLAMI Ultralight Road MTB 29 Bike TPU Inner Tube Tire French Valve FV 45mm For Gravel 700C 32C 35C 37C 40C 47C Super Light. They state that TPU tubes are the lightest, strongest, and most packable insurance policy for flats, even with tubeless setups. They found a deal for approximately $10 per tube, or a kit with two tubes, tire levers, and a patch kit for $12. The tubes are available in all sizes for road, gravel, and mountain bikes and are small enough to leave in a repair kit.

They mention having ridden one for the last 2 years and purchasing another one, which they see as a strong testimonial.

I've been using these Racework SPD pedals for over a year. No issues at all. I keep meaning to pop them open and check the grease, but I still haven't gotten around to it. Hard for anyone to say any pedal is as good as a shimano pedal, but these are good. Currently $30 for a pair. Hard to beat that.

YOELEO NxT SL2 Review: Impressive Value for Money
00:08:32

The reviewer tested the YOELEO NXT SL2 C60 wheels for several weeks, comparing them to other Chinese carbon wheels. They found the wheels to offer excellent value, with great build quality, low weight (1359g total), a quiet 36-tooth ratchet hub, and a design that eliminates the need for rim tape. The wheels performed well in stiffness and comfort tests, offering a smooth ride with steel spokes, though tire installation was difficult and required a compressor. Some concerns were raised about hub durability and the complexity of spoke servicing.

AI Summary

Pros

  • Excellent price value
  • Great build quality and assembly
  • Lightweight (1359g total for 60mm depth)

+11 more

Cons

  • Tire installation is difficult and requires a compressor
  • Spoke servicing is complicated and time-consuming
  • Some bike shops may not be able to service them

Key Points

  • Model: YOELEO NXT SL2 C60
  • Weight: 1345g claimed, 1359g actual (623g front, 736g rear)
  • Rim depth: 60mm

Does anyone else ever bought something from aliexpress that they didn’t know they needed but now cannot do without anymore? For me it is the chain cleaner holder. I got it for like 10 Usd.

I have this saddle in 135mm with EVA pad. It is very good if you prefer narrow near flat saddles (the pelvic support here is quite small). Very similar perfomance to my PRO Falcon, only wish it to be not short nosed.

I'm using the Onirii PD-06Ti pedals on one of my bikes, they've been great after I replaced the glue-like grease with something less viscous. For cleats, I use Exustar E-RSL11 cleats, and I have no lateral play. These cleats are also sold as Garmin Rally RS cleats - they're exactly the same thing, as Exustar makes cleats for Garmin. And you can save quite a bit of money by forgoing the Garmin-branded packaging.

I used ESI RCT wrap for a number of years. It's a silicone tape that is smooth but grippy and you can vary the amount of cushion/firmness by how tightly you wrap it. ESI was expensive and they are discontinuing it cause it's getting more expensive to make. This Onrii tape is a great replacement for it. It's textured on one side, but besides that it's very similar. Been a few months and I'm liking it very much.

I figured I should report back on these shoes because I gave them a bad rap previously. I said I regretted ordering them because they were not good and I didn't think they'd hold up. Well, I've likely put over 1500mi on them so far and they're holding up great. They're still not great shoes, as I don't find them to be very stiff and they could be more comfortable. Also, the way the single BOA straps tighten makes it hard to get a good snug fit on either the toe or the midfoot or both (2 boas or a 1 boa and a toe strap would probably help a lot). BUT, the BOAs have held up great. The shoe still looks great. It's a mesh material and it stays very cool and dry-ish for summer riding. Honestly, for the very little money I paid for these, you could get a worse shoe.

I recently bought this tape because a friend in my group was using it. It looks pretty cheap, it doesn't even have a brand name, but after using it for a while, it feels pretty comfortable on the drops, and its texture is quite non-slip. I would buy it again.
