Re: Interesting Aliexpress finds! - good deals, interesting stuff, new products etc! Microshift is excellent, I'm running Advent X on my trail MTB.

I'm pretty new to the AliX game but I have a bunch of stuff coming that I can review. Toseek QR fork, ALITAONE seatpost, Deemount valve cores, Deckas chainring, Risk Ti bolts, and more

Re: Best and worst overall quality/value components/tools/gear from AliExpress?
Here's my best of :
Elita one seatpost and saddles
Firespider handlebars
Uno stems too
Balugoe $24 86g bare carbon saddles(but tend to crack after a while)
xpresso pedals Ti, 160g F1Z bike shop
handlebar bags, for long rides(Loving Outdoor Store)
Darevie shorts
SK Cycle carbon seatpost clamp
Alpha cycling pink break pads
Nuga store tubeless syringe
Onirii M2 brakes
Balashov Electric Cooking Machine 1.7L, to wax chains
Magene Radar L508



I liked them but not anymore:
Gaciron lights, great but their straps are crap, I've lost them all

Got an ELITAONE seatpost coming, can't wait to try it on my bikepacking rig.

Re: Best and worst overall quality/value components/tools/gear from AliExpress?
I like rhinowalk saddlebags, risk titanium bolts, towild lights.

I dislike anything from og-evkin.

Just ordered a Rhinowalk stem bag mostly for a snack sack on my bikepacking rig. Pretty much a full set of oil slick Risk Ti bolts coming as well. (if you haven't noticed I'm new here and going wild with these parts deals...)

Re: ZRace RX crankset - broken Re: pedal extenders

I tried using some from AliX and they broke on my MTB, and JUST after I finished a hectic descent. Could've caused a massive crash. Although I love the wider Q being a tall dude, I will never run them again on any bike. I just wish companies would introduce cranks with variable Q-factor.

Re: Recommendation on 1x12 MTB groupset? Just get Microshift Advent X. It's "only" 10 speed but it's fantastic. I'm sure it's slightly more expensive than the Chinese ones you posited but it's reliable and robust.

Re: Best and worst overall quality/value components/tools/gear from AliExpress? ^ Thanks for all the input, so many goodies in there. Those purple jockey wheels would be perfect on my purple Cotic FlareMax.

More stuff I've received:

Re: Flat handlebar recommendation? That's probably the one component I wouldn't get off of Aliexpress.

Good handlebars from Spank, Ritchey, etc are like $40

Best value stem I've found is the 7075 3d forged Truvativ Descendant

Re: Interesting Aliexpress finds! - good deals, interesting stuff, new products etc! Just ordered a set of Zoom HB-910 brakes in silver, along with Cooma Gold metallic pads and Avid rotors.

Shoutout to this forum for all the excellent threads highlighting the quality products in a sea of mediocrity.
