BOLANY Road Bicycle Air Fork 60mm Travel 700C Off-Road Disc Brake Air Suspension Manual Lock 100*12mm Thru Axle Bike Shock

BOLANY Road Bicycle Air Fork 60mm Travel 700C Off-Road Disc Brake Air Suspension Manual Lock 100*12mm Thru Axle Bike Shock

Fork
Purchased: 2025-03-17

I purchased one of these several years ago to play around on my gravel bike. It works well, but I didn't like the added weight on my gravel bike. It also raises the front of the bike up enough that I really didn't like the change in handling. After playing around with a suspension fork on my gravel bike, for forest service roads and trails where I want/need front suspension, I ride my Carbon hardtail frame with a 120mm front suspension fork. My hardtail rides a lot better and is faster than my gravel bike on these types of rough roads.

The reviewer discusses their experience with the RideNow TPU inner tubes, which they initially wanted to like due to their small size, affordability, and lightweight nature. However, they encountered performance issues, with both tubes developing slow leaks after relatively short distances (200 km for the first and 300 km for the second). This led them to abandon the tubes in favor of tubeless setups.

AI Summary

Pros

  • Small size
  • Relatively affordable
  • Lightweight

Cons

  • Developed slow leaks after 200 km and 300 km respectively
  • Performance was less than ideal

The reviewer mentions they are currently running Schwalbe G-One Allround tires in 40mm size on their gravel bike.

The tires are part of a tubeless setup that the reviewer switched back to after issues with TPU inner tubes.

AI Summary

Pros

  • Good tire clearance allows for potential upsizing to 45mm or 50mm tires
  • Part of a functional tubeless setup

Key Points

Are cheap cassettes durable enough? AliExpress vs Shimano
00:13:27

The reviewer discusses the ZTTO SLR Gen3 11speed Road Bike Cassette as a replacement for their worn-out monoblock steel cassette. They mention it is incredibly lightweight at just 122g and is the latest generation from ZTTO, referred to as the SLR Gen3. However, they express concerns about its durability, particularly due to the aluminum teeth on the first three sets, which they expect to wear out quickly. They plan to test it and provide updates on its performance.

AI Summary

Pros

  • Incredibly lightweight at just 122g
  • Latest generation from ZTTO (SLR Gen3)

Cons

  • Expected lower durability compared to the previous black cassette
  • Aluminum teeth on the first three sets are expected to wear out very fast
  • Suspects the underlying steel alloy is the same as the previous model

more cons in the video

Key Points

  • Weight: 122g
  • Generation: SLR Gen3
  • First three sets of teeth are milled out of aluminum

00:13:27

The reviewer discusses their experience with a ZTTO monoblock cassette, which appears to be the ZTTO Ultimate 11/12 Speed Road Bike Cassette, though the exact model name isn't explicitly stated. They mention purchasing it for £66 and highlight its lightweight design at 200g, comparable to Shimano Dura-Ace. The cassette initially shifted well but wore out after approximately 2,500 miles, with the eighth gear becoming completely unusable. The reviewer conducted a hardness test comparing it to Shimano cassettes, finding the ZTTO's steel hardness relatively good but less uniform in hardening. They note the cassette has a basic black oxide coating rather than the more durable nickel plating found on Shimano products. The reviewer replaced it with a newer ZTTO SLR Gen 3 model but expects even lower durability due to aluminum teeth on the smaller cogs.

AI Summary

Pros

  • Lightweight at 200g
  • Good initial shifting performance
  • Price of £66 is much cheaper than equivalent Shimano Dura-Ace

Cons

  • Wore out after approximately 2,500 miles
