Re: Magene L508 Radar bike light
damn that is quick, i also live in an urban area and the thought of having to charge it every ride doesn't sound very pleasant.

Well... now after a ride, I charge the karoo, a whoop, sometimes a SRAM battery, a red light, a front flashing light, a Lupine battery if MTB, and the radar. ???
Hopefully I do not forget to charge my phone, and... my car!
And I'm glad I don't ride an e-bike... yet  ;D

Re: Carbonda fm936 Thoughts
Did you hear back from them? I haven’t.

Yes, sorry for the delay, only the 909 is UDH
But maybe we could 3D-print something as you mentioned already if I remember well.
Resisting(strongly) to not take my FM936 to the family house in Croatia, and ... yeah... a 909  ::)

Re: 2022 Cervelo S5
Questioning one's spending choices on fake frames: BAD
Insulting one's spending choices on legitimate (albeit expensive) frames: GOOD

Chinatown logic...

Well... paying a bike 14,000 while you can get the equivalent for 7,000
That means two bikes instead of one, just for a sticker.
So yes, it may appear we know something they don't  8)

Re: Caved in and ordered a clearance Spcycle SP-027D Frameset
...List of Parts:...

Do you have the link to your mudguard ? It looks neat.
Second question, is it effective ?  :)

Re: Haidelibikes New 29er boost mold with UDH rear hanger Why BB92? Most MTB people I meet ride SRAM Eagle, and thus DUB spindles.
41mm - 30mm => 11mm /2 = 5.5mm height, is not much space for bearings inside BB cups.
As a result they don't last long. Forcing you to frequent  BB replacement.

Re: New Lexon spirit
... and a self built battery...
I was going to ask about the nice looking battery, until reading it is self built  :o
Congrats! Do you have some more details about it?

I would never have dared to rivet a carbon frame.
If you have some more details, I'm interested too.

Re: Velobuild GF-002 Whatever Chris says, the cover should ideally seat flush with the headtube.
And packed with grease.
Some cover models even have an integrated rubber sleeve.
Otherwise you're left with an open door for rain or cleaning water, that will  kill prematurely the headset bearings.

Aren't there two bearings heights for 1.5".
It is not the first time such kind of picture pops up in the forum

Re: LTWOO RX hydro sets
I just don't understand why would they use a two piece spindle instead of one piece. They just made it more complicated, more expensive to manufacture for no good reason.

Bearings are pressed on the spindle.
A setup that ensures a proper alignment compared to BB cups that sit in general in poorly machined and/or not aligned frames.
The load is then spread more evenly on the two bearings.
Making them live longer.

In the industry, this is an assembly when more precision is required, and to handle better both radial and axial load.

A crankset is always in two pieces anyway.
On others cranksets, on the junction between the crank arm and the spindle gets an orthogonal and heavy load, while here the arms and half spindles are one piece.
Which in theory ends stiffer, if we can ever feel it with our tiny hundreds watts capable legs  :D

Re: dcrf26 frame - Scott Foil?
In this case let's write them up: info@lightcarbon.com info@winowsports.com, i already did, maybe they will decide

Did some lobbying like this already decided some builders to start producing a model?

Re: dcrf26 frame - Scott Foil?
Still looking forward to a community inspired bike frame, i.e. "ChinerTown" (...to agree on a suitable name) official frame with UCI certification, on which all our needs are met  8)
That would be awesome. An enduro, a full suspension XC, a hardtail, a gravel, a climber, an aero or a TT ?
But then could we all agree on the specs ?  ;D
