The reviewer discusses the ICAN G25 SL gravel wheels, which replace the popular G25 model. He notes they are lighter, more efficient, and more robust, at the same price. The wheels feature a redesigned rim with tailored carbon layup, brass nipples, and a new hub design with a titanium freehub body. The reviewer is impressed by the wheel's trueness and overall engineering, but notes some minor omissions like spare spokes and disc rotor locking rings.

The reviewer praises Light Bicycle wheels with Non Plus hubs, noting their low weight, good build quality, and value compared to Western brands. However, he encountered issues with the high-speed bearings that came with the hubs, which lacked grease and led to contamination and failure on the rear wheel. He also mentions a maintenance challenge with small O-rings used for preload adjustment, which can be easily lost.

The reviewer discusses their experience with Light Bicycle wheels equipped with Non Plus hubs, highlighting the excellent build quality, low weight, and cost savings compared to Western brands. They note the wheels have been durable even under abusive gravel riding. However, they encountered an issue with the high-speed bearings that came without grease, leading to contamination and failure on the rear hub. They also mention a minor inconvenience with O-rings used for preload adjustment, which can be easily lost. Overall, they highly recommend Light Bicycle wheels.

The reviewer mentions using RUHM aluminum pedals with a steel axle on the quick-release side of their Brompton. They note the pedals are lightweight at 244 grams for the pair (one fixed, one detachable) and are curious about their long-term durability, as they have not ridden them enough to assess wear. They also observe a spot of rust after a wet ride but plan to clean it.

The reviewer does not mention the HUDUD Carbon Road Bike Crankset in the provided transcript. The crankset discussion refers to unnamed cranks that are lighter than previous Rock Bros ones and used with a power meter.

The reviewer mentions new cranks and a power meter, noting that the cranks are lighter than previous Rock Bros ones by about 30-40g, weighing around 287g for the crank arm. The power meter adds weight but has been fun to use, providing consistent power numbers that track with effort. They find it helpful for training and long rides to maintain a sustainable wattage.

The reviewer presents the CAMP ACE (also referred to as the Camp Edge 2 2026 model) as a highly valuable road bike, highlighting its full Shimano 105 groupset, UCI-certified aerodynamic frame, and affordable price of 37,900 baht. The reviewer considers it a best-seller and a great deal, especially for the frame alone.

The reviewer discusses swapping the original Altegra cassette for a SpeedOW monolock cassette purchased from AliExpress. They praise it as one of their favorite AliExpress products, highlighting its single-piece steel construction for durability and its light weight. They note it is significantly lighter than even a Dura-Ace cassette and is very affordable.

The reviewer mentions the ZTTO skewers only once, briefly. They state they are swapping the bike's original heavy, rusty skewers for these 'nice lightweight titanium AliExpress ones.' They note these are the same skewers they had just taken off their hill climb bike to replace with even lighter ones, and they decided to install them on the Trek bike because they were lying around in their parts bin.

The reviewer mentions swapping the stock saddle for a 'Riot saddle'. They state they could not use a super light carbon saddle due to the bike's clamping mechanism not supporting oval carbon rails, so they had to use a steel-railed saddle instead. They describe it as 'a bit heavy' but found it 'really comfortable riding'.
