The reviewer mentions purchasing these rotors from AliExpress for £10 for the pair and includes them as part of the build. However, there is no detailed discussion or review of their performance, quality, or specific features.

The reviewer discusses the ELITEWHEELS ENT GRAVEL Carbon Wheelset as part of their gravel bike build. They mention purchasing these wheels due to their positive experience with Elite wheels on their road bike. The wheels are described as 32 mm wide with a 35 mm depth profile, offering a balance of aerodynamics and weight savings. The reviewer highlights the value for money, noting the wheels cost £280 for the pair and weigh 1651 grams total (774g front, 877g rear). They praise the durability of their previous Elite wheels, having done close to 5,000 miles without issues, and express confidence these gravel wheels will perform similarly well.

The reviewer mentions purchasing a ZTTO branded 11-42 cassette from AliExpress for £26. They note having bought several ZTTO components in the past that have been reliable, though they acknowledge these are likely generic Chinese-made parts rebranded. The reviewer is curious to see how this cassette performs over time but doesn't provide extensive testing details in this video.

The reviewer discusses the T47 screwfit bottom bracket in the context of their gravel bike build. They express satisfaction with this choice over press-fit bottom brackets, which they mention are prone to squeaking and generally problematic based on forum discussions. The T47 bottom bracket is described as having a massive aperture that facilitates cable routing through the frame. The reviewer also notes that the bottom bracket shell is hollow and large enough to allow finger access inside for cable management purposes.

The Road Bike Handlebar Tape Anti-Slip PU Shock Handle Bar Tape with Bar End Plugs PU Anti-Vibration Wrap Tape Cycling Accessories is briefly mentioned in the video when the reviewer is wrapping the handlebars. They mention using a noname brand bar tape from AliExpress that cost £5. The reviewer expresses dissatisfaction with the finishing bits of tape that come with cheap bar tape packs, stating they never seem to look right. They also mention their preference for using electrical tape wrapped inside out to help secure the bar tape better.

The reviewer discusses their experience with the WHEELTOP EDS-TX Wireless Carbon Electronic Shifter/Derailleur groupset throughout the video. They mention that the build went fine initially, but they found the groupset to be quite frustrating in practice. The reviewer highlights both positive and negative aspects, including the ease of setup and bleeding the brakes, but also significant issues with front derailleur performance and chain rub. They compare it to higher-end groupsets like Shimano Di2 and LTwoo's ERX, noting that while it doesn't match their performance, it offers a more affordable electronic shifting option.

Overall, they express strong satisfaction with the product.
