Do you guys know a suitable handlebar which is 360 or 380mm wide?

LC has only an 400 wide option. With 370 shoulders not ideal.

Just found this amazing item on AliExpress. Check it out! 974,18zł  25%OFF | FIRE SPIDER Bike Handlebar T1000 Carbon -12 Degrees Ultra Light Hidden Road Bicycle Handle Bar Di2 Integrated Handlebar

Re: DT 240EXP hub clones Goldix, Venfort

I've found this video (google translation needed):
He talks about almost all models, but doesn't recommend both 240 and 180 due to ratchet failures and only 370 and 310 are options to go or 240 with large outer spline, not threaded. 370 and 310 are also compatible with DT ratchets. Lighter 310 model uses aluminium ratchet ring and he says this ring tends to wear, it doesn't in DT hubs. In 370 there's no labyrinth driver body sealing, so you maybe need driver from 240 or 310. I'm not sure I will go with GDX, as I'm building wheels for racing...

Just order hubs from elite wheels. R12 is the model as far as I remember. People use them with elite wheels and all are happy

Re: Elves Falath EVO 2023 I like that Hambini exposed this larp Jordain.
Dude is an absolute cancer. He does not even ride bikes, have no experience and measures the BB with some cheap aliexpress caliper claiming he an expert. But he is just some wannabe cyclist who knows shit.
His whole idea is to review as much crap as possible, act like an expert just to get paid promotions from Chinese brands. F this dude.

Re: Current Wheelset Offerings for Climbing Today I received my wheels from yuanan. They look amazing and can't wait for my new build to test them out.

Plus got those cools mana tubeless valves and tape

Already installed my new mana rotors on them and now waiting for a new frame.

I snagged this wheelset for a whooping 444€ including "tax-prepaid" shipping to Germany, in the 50mm variant, 21mm internal, but I asked for no decals.

I am now debating on which tire width to get. I will get a GP5000 non TL (with 19g TPU tubes), but the question is wether to get 25mm vs 28mm.

I have always had 25mm GP5000 tires and they measure about 28mm on my current wheels with 20.5mm internal width.


Has anyone tried GP5000 in 28 mm on these rims? How is the tire-rim interface? I always hear about the comfort (which I don't need probably), but I fear that they would bulge up on the 21mm internal rims and be even wider than the rim, "ruining" the aero benefits...

First of all you gotta chill with this aero effect. It's so little that we can clearly call it non existing. Gp5000 will measure around 30mm on this wheelsets and be perfectly fine. Remember that larger tire gives you better traction, it's not only comfort.

Re: Which gravel wheels? I ordered my gravel wheels directly from OEM factory - yuanan. Contact person is Leon Hu. I asked for the custom build and I am very satisfied.

35mm deep, 25mm internal, pillar 1420, 36t ratchet hub - weight 1430g.

Nothing can't beat them at 500$ price point.

Re: Spcycle New Mold G056 Carbon Gravel Frame Finally assembled the bike.

Size L, weight 8.2kg naked, 8.6kg ready to ride

I had a problem with the crankset and bb (token).
The spindle was to short. The solution was to get rid of preload adjuster and just put a spacer. Will probably change the crankset for sram force wide with power meter, as the senicx one has slightly big chainline. Chainring 44t.
- Wheels from yuanan with mana rotors and gravel thundero HD tires.
- Stem deda vinci - 17 with kovcelo 40cm handlebar with little flare.
- Hoods and brakes sram rival.
- Rd sram gx with garbaruk cage from Ali which makes is as light as xx1 version.
- Cassette sram eagle xx1 10-50 and chain also xx1.
- Saddle prologo scratch5 agx.

Bike is very comfortable and stable. Feels very good on descents and single tracks. On other hands feels slower then my previous bike - specialized Diverge e5 comp aluminum. But that one was basically a road plus/endurance bikes. I also had way better shape last year. Will see how much I like this bike inf few weeks.
