Re: Which chains is everyone using? YBN SLA!

"The YBN SLA remains Zero Friction Cycling’s top recommendation due to it’s overall balance of outright efficiency, outstanding longevity, and coatings that get along very well with fastest lubricants on the market (Mspeedwax / UFO etc). The YBN SLA is very fast, typically within around 0.5w of fastest chain (dura ace) however it has approx 50% greater longevity vs Dura Ace / Ultegra chains."

Re: Velobuild VB-R-168 Frame Finally decided to get j&l thru axles

For anyone interested i got the pinarello rear which fit perfectly and the closest they had for the front from what i found was cervelo which is 3mm shorter than the original(original is 130mm and the j&l are 127mm)

Re: Recomendations 27.2mm carbon seatpost I run Elita One seatposts too but ive read about many people overtorquing and cracking them and my friend has done this too.

That said, ive had two that have had no problems at all for 1-2 years each. The weight you get for the price is indeed great.

i just personally would not recommend this seatpost to anyone that doesnt have/want to use a torque wrench

Re: Best and worst overall quality/value components/tools/gear from AliExpress? fake G8 insoles

i havent tried authentic g8 insoles but these are cheap as chips and work well for me. ive been using them for over a year

The real ones cost over $100 iirc

plenty of youtube videos teaching about the benefits and how to use them

Does anyone have experience with these Good Year Eagle F1 road slicks? Possible cheaper alternative to GP 5000 tires?

https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256805561575967.html

I haven't tried them personally but accoring to BRR theyre heavier and higher rolling resistance than GP5000.

I just received a set of Michelin Power Cups but yet to test them. Theyre very slightly slower than GP5000 and similar puncture resistance but significantly cheaper for me. but some people have reported some complaints about thread width

theres a discussion about them on WW here:

the rims are lb falcon pro 55 with ERD 530mm, i would like to use sapim cx sprint but what length?

I think you can try ask the aliexpress store actually! Ive done that in the past and they calculated for me and i double checked with an online spoke length calculator

Re: Searching a lightweight thru axle I use j&l thru axles on my vb-r-168 that you can get on ebay

My stock vb axles were 79g for the set and my j&l axles are 50g

Ive attached a picture of the specs of the stock axles

i got the pinarello rear which fit perfectly and the closest they had for the front from what i found was cervelo which is 3mm shorter than the original(original is 130mm and the j&l are 127mm)

Re: VeloBuild VB-R-268 frame Really wish velobuild designed the 268 with the same seatpost as the 168 so they could offer the option for zero setback or setback and existing 168 owners could order a zero setback
