10 CHEAP ALIEXPRESS MTB PRODUCTS THAT ARE SURPRISINGLY GOOD!

The reviewer mentions the Bike Handlebar Stand Clip-On Stabilizer as a cheap accessory costing £2.40 that attaches to handlebars to protect controls when flipping the bike upside down for maintenance, particularly useful for e-bikes.

The reviewer tests the WEST BIKING MTB Ergonomic Thumb Support Grips, describing them as random-looking mountain bike thumb grips that he installs out of curiosity. He finds them pointless, not functional for resting thumbs, and potentially dangerous during riding.

The reviewer tests colored disc brake bolts purchased from AliExpress for £1.28, installing anodized red ones to match his bike's color scheme. He expresses initial skepticism about their durability but finds them visually appealing and performs a riding test to check if they hold up under braking forces.

The reviewer demonstrates the COOSPO Mini Electric Air Pump during a ride when noticing soft tires. He tests it by inflating a tire from 26 PSI to 50 PSI, praises its performance and value, and suggests it's useful for carrying in a car or backpack for emergencies.

The reviewer demonstrates the WEST BIKING Portable Ratchet Wrench Kit, noting it has a cool case, ratchet mechanism, good quality weight, and includes various socket sizes (8mm, 6mm, 5mm, 4mm) with a locking feature to prevent bits from falling out during use.

The reviewer tests a set of tire levers/pliers purchased from AliExpress for approximately £1. He attempts to use them to remove a mountain bike tire but finds them ineffective and concludes they 'absolutely suck' for mountain bike tires, though he speculates they might work on a road bike.

The reviewer demonstrates chain pliers that cost £120, showing how they work to split and reconnect a chain's split link. He notes that branded equivalents cost upwards of £10, and suggests these could be a good addition to a toolbox if they work.

The reviewer tests a stem riser/extender from AliExpress that allows raising the handlebar height after cutting the fork too short. He installs it, finds it makes the bike feel like a jump bike with higher bars, but expresses significant safety concerns about its strength and reliability during riding.
