Gravel Bafang mid-drive e-bike frames?
Hello pretty people, Are there gravel frames that take a Bafang mid drive motor? I'm thinking 40C tyres, relaxed road bike geometry, Bafang BBS02 or similar mid-drive motor, and the battery somewhere. I don't want an electric mountain bike, but i'd like a road bike that can take 40C tyres for comfort & versatility. Thanks! May 22, 2023, 10:43:20 AM |

Very pretty paint job & bike, congrats! How much did you pay for the frame with shipping? June 16, 2023, 08:26:11 AM |

Re: Carbon spokes or CX Ray?
Well, as title suggests, I'm right now between two wheelset, carbon spoke wheelset but with rim (nipple) holes vs standard Saphim CX Ray but without rim holes, so which one do you think should be stiffer and more responsive? Carbon spokes will be much stiffer. And presumably, responsive. My wheels use sapim cx ray, because i'm 80kg, i like comfort, and i'm the limiting factor, not my gear. Bear in mind that carbon spokes are much more likely to break, changing them may be an adventure, and so on. June 19, 2023, 05:09:29 AM |

Re: Velobuild VB-R-177
Will this frame clear 32c Panaracer GKs or GK SS? Various comments on the forum saying 32C on the 177 is very sketchy. Which is a major bummer for me. I want to run 32C Conti 5000 on 32mm wide rims on my next road bike. I've ridden 28 and 32mm back to back, difference is very material, yet peak torque showed on YT there's no penalty using 32C, either rolling resistance or CDA, proving you're running wide rims (32mm) June 19, 2023, 05:29:13 AM |

Re: Airwolf YFR068 - 2023 Gravel Frame
Hard to tell apart from the VB GF002. I've built and ridden 2 of these, flawless. Happy riding June 20, 2023, 06:07:18 AM |

Re: Shimano groups on AliEx
I've ordered so much stuff on AliX. As soon as you receive it, have a very close look. Install it right away on a bike (I think you have 14 days) and make sure it works. If you can prove it's fake, or prove it's broken or what not, you'll get your money back. AliX is now doing what Ebay has always done: offering buyer protection. Are fake FD / RD / shifters a thing?

Re: What lube?
Been waxing my chains for years, it's awesome. So clean! It's meant to save a few watts too. Followed the videos from that autistic Australian guy. Have i mentioned how clean they make the bike?  I use a metal bowl over boiling water (bain marie in french), instead of a rice cooker. As far as i can tell, it does the same thing. June 28, 2023, 11:00:46 AM |

Re: reccomend me 380mm non-intergrated aero handlebar
I just got a set of these: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004065727692.html?spm=a2g0o.store_pc_groupList.8148356.13.125e58d6WlOaer&pdp_npi=3%40dis%21NZD%21NZ%24%20277.45%21NZ%24%20194.22%21%21%21%21%21%4021038edf16875699224342016edf09%2112000027923381883%21sh%21NZ%21784578575 Did you really spend 130+ USD on these? Can I ask why? it feels extremely overpriced, but i may be missing something? July 01, 2023, 09:56:31 AM |
