Velobuild Handlebar
I was wondering if anyone have experience with Velobuild handlebars? I was looking at potentially at HB-009 or one of their integrated ones (HB-05 or HB-06) but not sure about quality and flex. Any feedback or other recommendation?

Re: High end big brand OEM road rims 38/45/50mm on sale!!!
Or can you ask the hub supplier for a technical drawing of the hub? Normally hub suppliers will provide that info and we can see the bearings for it

Re: Groupset News
Looks like they have changed the shifter ergonomics! http://www.ltwoo.com/en/pr.jsp?_jcp=3_568

Re: Interesting Aliexpress finds! - good deals, interesting stuff, new products etc!
If someone is looking for a cheap Sensah Empire 11s shift kit (brifter and derailleur) the sale has it going for $100USD with free shipping https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005063051998.html Good for a budget build, upgrade or trainer bike (which I am doing). March 21, 2023, 12:10:45 AM |

Re: Word of warning when it comes to Velobuild (VB068 in particular)
wow that sounds nasty. Good thing you've recovered. My dropout looks the same (shallow). I do check my skewers and retighten them every so often (on the Velobuild and also brand name bikes). Also in my case, I think it would be harder for the wheel to roll out from under, my derailleur (Sensah Empire) angle position seems to make it hard for me to remove the wheel so any loosening my tires will probably rub the chain stay (25C tires). Just curious, what skewers are on those wheels? I've read those super lightweight skewers don't clamp as well so I ended up with the stock heavy ones from my wheels. March 23, 2023, 08:37:51 AM |

Re: Sensah Empire issues
A little update: I couldn't fix it and didn't want to go any deeper as of yet (doesn't make I might not take it apart later). Sent a video recording showing the right shifter cannot do 11 speed as spec to both Sensah store and the sell I got it from. Here are some conclusions I got:
Dealing with the seller:
At the end, it looks like there is some after sales support for Sensah products (or I got lucky with the seller). In both cases, in order to get it processed I need to put in this $0.01 order + shipping, the seller had a free shipping option but very slow so I ended up paying $3 for faster shipping. Also in both cases they did not ask me to return the defective part (good: did not cost me to ship it, bad: how would they know this will not be a future quality issue?).

Re: Sensah Empire issues
More fun updates….the seller said they can’t order a right shifter…. So I had to open a dispute to get partial refund and bought a right shifter from “Sensah store” and has shipped out already. I guess no more ordering from third party even though Sensah store is not official store but they carry after sale service.

Looks like they don't sell the Newboler tubes anymore. Found these RideNow for similar prices https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005120740960.html Did anyone install their TPU tubes like this? Tube before the tire? May 22, 2023, 03:02:16 PM |

Re: Rinasclta Granite Aero "All Road" Bike Frameset
Any more updates on the Rinasclta or Airwolf version? I am thinking of looking for a "All road" bike and was thinking of the Airwolf version. Sounds like it is a good bike so far besides if someone recommends something else?
