Gravel build - your evergreen vfm parts?

[Changebiker]

Hi folks,

I was wondering what your evergreen, go-to value for money parts for a gravel are.
I just decided for a bit of a 'special' frame, as I'm needing a foldable bike for train rides - and would like to start driving into parts.

Not the ideal gravel geometry, will have to get as close as I can.

Though to not get hung up on that - would like to rather know more about your favourite go-to (Chiner)parts when building a gravel.

Thanks!

Gravel or not, there are some parts that are on most of my bikes (depending on the compatibility)
1. Uno stem
2. Elita One seatpost
3. Lightweight cassettes from Wuzei, Sunshine etc (not the super light colorful ones)
4. Cooma brake pads
5. Heppe gold shift cables
6. Fish bone cable housing

Apart from these, Zniino handlebars which I have on 3 bikes and Elitewheels wheelsets. All my bikes are also running KMC chains from AliExpress.

After having tried 2 zniino handlebars I believe i won’t buy the original version from which mine is “inspired”.

haha the corner bar replicas? yeah those were the ones I first got, then one more (with extended "horns") and then another regular drop bar - all fantastic.

check out Dahon GB2 foldable full gravel bike 27.5 wheels. Folded in reasonable dimension, not as compact as brompton type.
