Looking at these as well: https://a.aliexpress.com/_mMT21ni apparently 48% stiffer than FS300 but currently more than twice the price... Got two carbon aero handle bar from this brand and I like them.
Went into an Alibaba spiral yesterday looking at Yunan bike wheels (apparently the seller of Elite Wheels) as it could be cheaper than Aliexpress, but it was difficult to browse. I was looking for some MTB carbon wheels with DT 240, 30mm inner width, but I wasn’t sure I was ordering the right set (couldn’t find the difference between their XC and All Mountain wheels).

Found a frame on the Qilefu store that's painted in gloss black. Will build it up as my spare bike.

As of today, I have 58 items in my cart that I hope will have significantly lower prices on 11-11. None of these items were discounted much, if any, during the choice days, versus the prices I have been tracking. I have only 4 larger ticket items that are bicycle related. Overall, not very many bicycle parts, versus other items I have been watching.
We will see on the 8th to 9th what 11-11 will offer us regarding discounts. I get the feeling that China has ran through most of its overstocked items earlier in the year.

Do vendors actually reduce prices significantly? For me the 11.11 has always been about coupons + 3 off every 30. I break my purchases in sections so that I hit the coupon threshold exactly or a few dollars above but never by a lot.
I don't care if they reduce the price or not as in general I end up paying less on 11.11 compared to any other Choice Day sale. The only thing that I pay attention to is if someone hiked the prices before sale. Almost every item that I have in my cart is more or less the same price as it was last month and I don't see it changing for 11.11. Bigger items that I have in my cart A mini velo wheelset from Litepro, a 700c CSC wheelset and Shimano MTB drive train parts (XT, SLX). Apart from this, many other small bits. I compared prices from last year (XT brakes and Deore groupset) and those are still the same today give or take.
