Re: Groupset News Well...looks like I have to reconfigure the gravel build I've been budgeting for. These are exciting developments. Hoping that clutch is an actual clutch.

After about a year with the ZTTO brakes, I must say they are really bad. I have changed the pads to metal a long time ago and that did give some improvement, but nowadays the brakes are simply dangerous. Yesterday there were 2 times during a ride I was afraid I would miss a corner because the brakes were so bad...

I am fed up with the ZTTO brakes and have now ordered the Onirii BR-05 brakes. These should be an improvement over the old BR-02 brakes. Will keep you updated when they get here...

Thanks for the update. This is the type of long term performance info we need!

Re: Groupset News Nice! Just watched it. He did mention some kind of tensioner on the gravel rd. Not sure if its an actual clutch or a tensioner similar to Sensah. Price sounds pretty fantastic. I'll definitely be holding off on a gravel build until this gets on Ali...after the first wave of kinks are worked out.

Given that the factory bearings aren't great to begin with, should I push them for replacements, or just go ahead and order higher quality replacements? I'm still waiting on rims and need to order spokes, so no hurry yet.

Why bother with replacements that are potentially just as bad? I’d suggest getting the higher quality bearings for peace of mind.

Re: Looking for good MTB 12S group set plus disc brake from China - Any advices? I hear they're ok. I would choose mt200 because if needed shimano replacement parts are easy to find and easy to work with. My bike 2020 Cannondale Habit came with mt200s and they're been perfect with no issues. Highly recommend.

Re: Chinese forks

I mean isn't that kind of the risk with just about anything we talk about on this forum

Not necessarily. Most chinese mtb frames have come to the point where if built up competently, you can trust it won't fall apart after one hard trail ride.
Chinese forks just haven't got to that point yet. Subpar materials or craftsmanship in chinese forks means they're not ready for the abuse of real trail riding. Suntour, Xfusion, and low end Rockshox are still the best budget forks. Reliable and serviceable.

Re: FS: [Complete Bike] 52cm Carbonda CFR 707 SRAM Rival AXS XPLR Build - Phoenix,AZ Thats a sweet looking build! Love the paint job. Not my size and probably way outside my budget, but how much are you asking for it?

Placed an order for Shimano M6100 12s groupset with KMC chain and 11-46 cassette. Assuming Shimano components are genuine, felt like a good deal. The cassette is a weak link (Sunrace) but if it runs for a thousand or so miles I'll be happy. Overall not bad for $97~. Fingers crossed.

If the SunRace cassette is the weak link, then thats a pretty good deal. Their stuff is better than any chinese brand you'll find that's for sure.

Re: Suggestions on a; 165mm, 30-46t Cranksets with BSA Bracket There's also a Dub version. Not sure if that works with your set up. Some prefer the beefier spindle.
Can anyone confirm if that 24mm spindle is aluminum or steel?

Re: Groupset News Sensah has a new rear derailleur for the SRX group with a (supposedly) stronger clutch like chain tensioner. Anyone have more info on it?
