Re: Juin Tech GT-F brake calipers (dual piston)
Hey everyone, I just discovered a new brand called Onirii. They are like most other brands in that they sell some rebranded bits (Onirii Attack crankset is what appears to be a rebranded Fovno Thunder Pro) but what is most interesting is that they seem to have their own brake design. While their BR-02 brake is in its 4th design iteration according to their marketing and appears to be a rebranded ZTTO unit, their new BR-05 brake appears to be a completely new design that no one else on the market carries. EDIT: I think I’ve solved the mystery. ZTTO brakes are outdated rebrands of Onirii designs. ZTTO’s disc brake (the one without exposed pistons) is the 3th design iteration of the Onirii BR-02 while the ZTTO rim brake is a rebrand of the Onirii BC-01 which has since been succeeded by the BC-02. Also, ZRACE has started selling the Onirii BC-02 and BR-05 as the R700 and BR-005 respectively. EDIT 2: The Attack crankset is based on the Thunder and not the Thunder Pro as it has a 24mm spindle as opposed to 29mm DUB. January 27, 2022, 02:56:49 PM |

Re: Juin Tech GT-F brake calipers (dual piston)
As I was working my way through Taobao listings and Bilibili videos, I noticed that Onirii only really came up in the 3rd and 4th generation designs. Mentions of IIIPRO tended to come up in earlier searches so I'm assuming that they're no longer in the picture or are simply less involved as far as current production goes. I would also say that you really have to use Taobao and Bilibili to find the newest and best components from China. For example the new VFV Deep-V seatpost and the super high end EXS bits can only be found for sale on Taobao. Only outdated lower end stuff tends to end up being advertised to international buyers on Aliexpress, Shopee, Lazada, etc. Just found the Onirii BR-05 calipers listed on Ali… certainly worth a try for the next project. The design looks well thought through which should work well with todays internal routed cables. January 30, 2022, 01:39:55 PM |

Re: Koozer custom wheelset
Just FYI: now I'm building quite similar wheelset instead of buying finished product. I'm using Duroc 30 rims, ARC mt009 hubs (they are boost and have nearly the same weight as Koozer 390, but a bit cheaper), Sapim D-light spokes and CN alu nipples. All parts were bought on Ali (with coupons of course) and total cost is about €195 including work of wheelbuilder. Total weight of wheelset (without rim tape and tubeless valves) will be about 1760 grams.

Re: The Shiny New AM831 Group Buy (A) Thread!
Hi to all , I'm new to the forum and this thread , In fact it was this thread that lead me to join the forum but unfortunately I discovered this thread two weeks after I received my 831 frame and so you know the problems i have found whilst building and riding my new frame , I bought the frame from the Tideace store on Ali express. I to was told i was getting the upgraded version but received the unmoded one , Then found the fork issue and was told that is no problem no one else has complained and the fork wont be in that position in normal use so i filed a dispute with Ali express and got £158.00 refund There were some people in the bolt buy that have sold their frames. If none are available, and JJJ didn't have any extra run, I ordered two sets and I can drop down to one. Bolts haven't shipped yet so there may be options. February 06, 2022, 04:13:46 PM |

Re: Chinese cycling clothes
Don't think I've ever seen good mtb clothing on Aliexpress to be honest.This confirms my observations But I'm an XC bro so the spandex is ok for me.I'm an XC bro also, but now just want to find some more appropriate apparel for trailriding and bike park days. Spandex/lycra with knee pads looks at least strange

Re: L-TWOO RX 2x12 road groupset
I think others in China will easily beat Sensah to the punch with both MTB and Road electronic. I hope to be wrong, but Road electronic with hydraulic disc may be a shit show for a while if you can't swap in one of the usual suspects' calipers. Yes. Sensah groupsets aren't very good to begin with. The general quality and performance of the Empire Pro is around the level of Tiagra 4700 and 105 5800, let alone 105 R7000. Electronic shifting and hydraulic braking will require a lot of R&D and investment that I don't think Sensah is willing or able to commit. And seeing prior attempts at hydraulic braking like Zoom's HB-875 doesn't inspire confidence to say the least. Caliper compatibility shouldn't be an issue though. IIRC pretty much every mineral oil caliper out there excluding SRAM is interchangeable. What can't be swapped out however are the master cylinders in the levers. February 09, 2022, 04:14:26 PM |

Re: Tideace 2022 New Enduro Mold FS838 Being Production
Looks interesting, from the 831 frame I'd be investigating and putting a lot of time into ensuring the linkage design will not have any play in it. Being able to fit a coil shock would also make this frame quite appealing, and also ensuring the fork crown will not hit the downtube of the frame. February 15, 2022, 08:11:07 AM |

Re: Tideace 2022 New Enduro Mold FS838 Being Production
This is Haideli(Tideace) Privated Mold, so others would not sell this mold, thanks for supporting. Thanks for saving me time. Looks like I’ll find another frame then. February 15, 2022, 08:23:08 PM |
