Re: Groupset News China cycling just released a video about this groupset



Not that much technical info like installation/bleeding/is there a clutch on derailleur/etc but you do have the pricing.

I'm still not sure about the ergonomics... On one hand it looks like it can be easily be shifted from the drops, but the thumb lever looks a bit far to be used on the hoods.

Re: Interesting Aliexpress finds! - good deals, interesting stuff, new products etc! Simply amazing.  My $15.49 USD all carbon, padded, 132 gram saddle arrived today.   Appears to be of good quality.   (I can't believe that for years, I purchased Sella Italia Flight series saddles for over $100 each.)    Can't wait to put it on one of my rides and test how it feels on the sit spots.

2023 VeloBuild CX-002 Cyclocross Frame This should probably go under the Gravel/CX section, but the road bike section is more active. And I suppose you could use this frame for all-road versatility.

Size 54/M
Matte Black

Includes rubber seatpost dust cover and, to my surprise, some sort of 3M chrome chainstay protector to prevent scuffs. I suppose the assumption with cyclocross is there is a higher chance of dropped chains. Pretty thoughtful.

The frame is pretty chunky. Weight includes hangers, bottle cage bolts, and plastic grommets. BB area, headtube, and caliper mounts look good. Gonna run SRAM eTap plus a separate bar/stem combo via FSA no69 headset system...per usual.

Re: 2023 VeloBuild CX-002 Cyclocross Frame If VeloBuild can somehow provide a similar level of unique design, QC, fit and finish with future releases as they've done with this CX frame...this will solve a lot headaches and perhaps even regain customer trust.

Re: SES AR Road Handlebar from Aliexpress
Quote from: pearl on March 29, 2023, 12:56:04 PM
if someone can suggest a bar with 38mm tops, flaring to 40 or 42mm thats aluminum, i'll buy that instead lol

This will most likely be my next handlebar purchase. I've been eyeing getting a SEKA frameset soon, and the extra reach on these bars will be perfect. You may need to plan your stem length according however. I suspect these will be just has fantastic as Prime's alloy bars, except the claimed weight on these are lighter by 50-55 grams.

Re: Interesting Aliexpress finds! - good deals, interesting stuff, new products etc! There are some decent discounts on Magene Power meters with Zrace cranksets. Could be worth a try at $285

Re: Airwolf YFR068 - 2023 Gravel Frame I ended up ordering one of these frames from Airwolf on Aliexpress and it arrived yesterday. Custom paint colour.

Includes handlebar, stem, headset, seatpost, thru axles and a bottom bracket.

Does have flip chip in front fork, also di2 bar end junction insert piece for downtube (for 11 speed di2) and fork is D type for internal routing.

One minor issue I have noticed is the front derailleur cable routing is set up for a traditional cable set up and I will need to drill out the cable hole to be larger to allow a Shimano Di2 cable to fit through.

Weights:
Frame weight (painted frame with seatpost clamp) 1149g
Uncut fork weight 446g
Seatpost incl saddle clamp 217g
Stem (carbon with aluminium faceplate) 145g
Handlebars 42cm 237g
Rear thru axle 41g
Front thru axle 33g
Headset bearings 39g
Fork compression plug 38g
C ring 10g
Cap on C ring/top fork bearing for routing 8g
Spacers 6g each (3x)
Fork top cap 13g
Rear derailleur hanger 15g
Bottom bracket 115g

Some photos attached. Looks pretty good to me.
Will be building up with Shimano Di2 12 speed. Have ultegra levers, brakes and 50/34 crankset, thinking of using 105 FD and RD along with 11-36 cassette.
