Re: FSA ACR Spacer to normal stem adapter?
Thanks. I'd never seen that mentioned before. Sure ? See 4 posts above this one http://chinertown.com/index.php/topic,3756.msg38378.html#msg38378

Re: Carbonda FM-1306A a 69° Hardtail
… but I thought it is FM 160 => PM 160. Are you sure it is FM to PM 180?Yes, it is FM160-PM160 on the rear. And the rigid fork has a PM 160 to PM 180mm adapter March 20, 2023, 06:13:45 PM |

Re: Clipless shoes
... so I can't yet give you a report. I'll hopefully get out on them today or tomorrow and let you know. I look forward for your feedback, my winter shoes are at the end of their life. I hope you'll get horrible conditions, for a proper test

Re: Carbonda fm936 Thoughts
I asked Carbonda about UDH and the new SRAM derailleur for the FM936 and FM909, let's see what they say.

Re: Magene L508 Radar bike light
I'm using it for all my road rides. Combined with a Karoo 2. Two usages: 1) when a car approaches, you are warned, and know if it comes fast 2) after launching an attack to the peloton, I know if some are catching up

Re: Water bottle cage
More expensive than before, but these are great: US $19.46 19％ Off | OG-EVKIN BC-006 Carbon Bottle Holder Titanium Alloy Ultra-Light Bottle Cage Bike Bottle Holder For MTB /Road Bicycle Accessories https://a.aliexpress.com/_EJw76Dp They are light, and I never lost a bottle, on bumpy trails. But the carbon makes your bottles get black. Otherwise for half the cost but 7g more  https://r2-bike.com/VOXOM-Bottle-Cage-FH3 But I find the bottles to be harder to put and get Decathlon sells the same model under their name.

Re: Water bottle cage
I have probably 10 years or so on either of these... I had these before and found the little bottom piece quite fragile. It snapped on both bikes I did install it. I must be too brutal with the bottles, if you had them for 10+ years

Re: MTB vs Road shifting - is road inherently smoother than MTB?
Been playing with the the B screw to no avail. These Shimano derailleurs also have a marking on the underside to indicate 51t cassette teeth mark. Adjusted accordingly and there is slight improvement but is still not 100%. Under load shifting is painful. From the ongoing sale on AliExpress I got 12s groupset and DT Swiss MicroSpline freehub + 10-51 M6100 cassette while the chain will be 12speed SRAM or Shimano which I already have. With this I will have eliminated all Chiner components from the drivetrain. Fingers crossed! The chain length is quite important to have a smooth shifting too. March 26, 2023, 12:01:13 PM |

Re: CarbonSpeedCycle CSC wheels - avoid them
I assume with everything I buy on Aliexpress that there is NO warranty when I buy... Not my experience. For more expensive items, I generally buy from the official shop, and each time I got problems that were clearly a product flaw, I contacted the seller and either got a replacement or a part to repair.
