Re: Interesting Aliexpress finds! - good deals, interesting stuff, new products etc!
but always the same, or did you vary? I think you might have the most luck with the mydealzxx codes. I believe that was the one that worked for me November 14, 2023, 05:33:37 AM |

Wildside Mimic Saddle
Has anyone purchased something like the Wildside Mimic saddle or heard from anyone who has tried it out?

Re: MTB Cranks - Suggestions?
Been testing less expensive short cranks on my road bikes. My experience so far. Goldix - needed to clean up the three direct mount points with a dremel to fit my direct mount Sigeyi power meter. The Goldix direct mount chainring was fine, but the direct mount PM and another spider did not fit out of the box. Done over 1000km no issues since then. Cruz Bikes - shimano style crank attachment, needed to open the right crank arm to attach to crank. Unwilling to use my PM until tested and taken on and off the bike a couple of times. Not actually used yet. Zrace - after emails with Sigeyi, had to take to crank with dremel, to stop base of left crank arm resting on PM. Not used, but of the three cranks so far, probably the best construction. Not used yet. I have a Senicx on the way courtesy of 11.11 sale would of also got a Fovno (heard good things about this brand), but was cheaper before 11.11, so waiting. Depending on how the 160mm Cruz Bike goes, looking at trying a 155 or 160mm Cruz Bike with GXP style mounting for both crank arms https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005890453077.html November 17, 2023, 06:49:55 PM |

Re: MTB Cranks - Suggestions?
I ordered a SENICX MTB Mountain Bike Crankset, 165mm with a Dub spindle on the 11.11 sales.These are the ones I landed on as seeming the most legitimate. Good to hear you've had positive experiences on another set of their cranks! November 21, 2023, 08:18:27 AM |

Re: Interesting Aliexpress finds! - good deals, interesting stuff, new products etc!
I ordered mostly AliEx choice items during the 11.11 sale and the bulk of the items arrived within 5-7 days. In fact the only item that hasn't arrived yet was something I ordered back on Nov. 3rd. My recent orders have been arriving via a nondescript courier (doesn't say who in tracking), sometimes just delivered by a private car. Interestingly enough, even more bike frame brands are starting to store their frames in US warehouses. I think AliExpress is following the Amazon warehouse model. Though Amazon still has some hidden deals. I recently found a 2x MTB direct mount chainring for $6 USD on Amazon Prime. Same chainring goes for $16-20 on AliExpress. Also I like to search the bargain bin aka Amazon warehouse section for return items. I've found unused Panaracer GravelKings and Conti GP5000 tires for half off retail that way.

I've been using one of those price tracking services for Amazon items and noticed that both things I had my eye on today (a jigsaw and a WiFi temperature monitor for the greenhouse) both had their prices increased at the start of November and their current Cyber Monday price is inline or a bit higher than it's been in the last 30 days.

100 PSI RRSkit portable electric pump for $25 USD. I stopped carrying a regular pump and just put this in my back jersey pocket now: https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256806009816913.html November 28, 2023, 12:16:48 PM |
