Is anyone seeing anything particularly good for 11.11 sales?

For those with a lot of Ali points, 28% extra discount available on that frame, not sure what Twitter frame quality is (and you need to be able to live with that name on it) but good price for a full suspension I think:

Speak with Pro-X, large catalog of different rims, spokes, hubs. Good quality. Just like Yuanan they are OEM to others.

I recently enquired a quote for ratchet hub, 55mm deep and sapim cx-ray spokes.
379 USD for a standard wheel set + 70 USD for upgrade to Sapim CX Ray.
449 USD for ratchet hub, 55mm deep, cx-ray spokes and a set weight of 1540gr. I believe that's quite good?
Im using these, so far so good.

Imo if you want a modern build and use wider tires you need at least 2mm internal width rims. My vote here goes for elite edge or contact Leon from yuanan .+86 157 3827 4372. Very responsive guy. Can give you few options or a rim catalogue for custom build.
I've chosen custom build and will have my gravel wheels in few days.
- 1-piece SROAD CNC steel cassettes (SRAM x-dome knockoff). I know a lot of people shit on these, but I frankly find them to be fine and exceptionally light for the price. I've bought 4 so far I've had examples in 10, 11, and 12s. All perform great.
