Or with the Sigeyi power meter: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005001610276169.html?spm=a2g0o.detail.1000060.1.21407718DSiMjz&gps-id=pcDetailBottomMoreThisSeller&scm=1007.13339.291025.0&scm_id=1007.13339.291025.0&scm-url=1007.13339.291025.0&pvid=3a31664b-9584-47c6-aa29-4022fe311d4a&_t=gps-id:pcDetailBottomMoreThisSeller,scm-url:1007.13339.291025.0,pvid:3a31664b-9584-47c6-aa29-4022fe311d4a,tpp_buckets:668%232846%238114%231999&pdp_npi=3%40dis%21USD%21482.79%21381.4%21%21%21%21%21%402103246416866521913423919e4785%2112000016800648650%21rec%21BE%21768088907

Those are great prices...

The zrace crank and sigeyi powermeter that I purchased (sram 3-bolt) has a design flaw that broke the waterproof seal of the powermeter and ruin the board. I do not know if other interfaces have the same issue, but would assume they do.   Sigeyi claimed they have asked for this model to not be advertised together, but sellers continue to do so. Attached is an image of where the crank arm touches the power meter.

Re: Chinese cycling clothes I have a pair of aero socks from ykykw. After about 20 wears the silicone seems to not be as good and it does not stay up on my legs  too well. Could also be that I have hairy legs lol

Re: Interesting Aliexpress finds! - good deals, interesting stuff, new products etc! I purchased an IGPSport IGS630 off of Amazon on a great sale this past November.  To date, I have been pleased with it.  (I still don't see the IGS630s for sale on Aliexpress.)

It has good battery life but here are the problems I dislike about mine.

1.  Response time to display incline/grade:  My unit seems to lag behind the actual grade of the hill I am climbing. Often takes 5-6 seconds to recalculate and display the grade changes.  (I will have ridden past a steep section of a climb before it displays what the grade was.)
2.   On really steep climbs, often 20+% grades, I may have to walk or can be pedaling at around 2mph,  the computer stops recording, after 20 to 30 second it will stop recording, and/or turn off until I go faster than 2mph.
3.  There are almost too many features and screens on this model.   It is prone to me pushing the wrong button and accidentally deleting the current ride file, or creating a new lap.  I suppose I just need to study the manual more and commit to memory what all the buttons do.

Re: Which chains is everyone using?

I'm on Tiagra 4700 10s here so not the usual 11/12 speed groups which are more common around the forum (here in Brazil groups are really expensive so I'm still holding on the upgrade)

I usually rely on KMC X10 which I think offers a good cost-benefit, easy to find it for 20usd (or less) on aliexpress and last 7-8.000km or more depending on ride conditions

I've had one shimano 10s in the past, but I got it too cheap and think it was fake, before 6.000km it was already >0.7 wear...
it's easy to find cheap ones in Aliexpress too, but then I'm a bit concerned about the quality, and prefer to risk it on the KMC's - which I know there's a lot of fakes around, but even if the ones I got are fakes they at least lasted long enough

then right now I'm trying out the YBN, got a good value on a 10S one, it's about 2.000km and all good by now, but still a lot to ride before making my mind

I'm starting to lean using 11 speed chains on my 10 speed bike (GRX 400 equipped) and 12 speed chains on my 11 speed road bike/s. More gap leeway between cogs and shifting overall feels smoother to me. There are fakes everywhere, I might be running fake Shimano chains for all I know! Oh well, they're running decently so far!

Re: Interesting Aliexpress finds! - good deals, interesting stuff, new products etc! I just ordered the IGS630 from Ebay, since they're not available on AliEx. I figure for a little extra money I might as well get the additional features. Plus buying it locally I have the option for free returns if it doesn't workout. I'll report back once I receive it. Compared to the next cheapest units which are Bryton or lower end Garmin, the IGS630 seems to pack quite a bit of features for the price.

Re: Chinese cycling clothes In winter time I've bought one of the seamless Darevie bibs.
The chamois is more in the thinner side,  the padding is medium hard.

Since the chamois is always very personal... I like the thinner style, so I am fine with this. The Lycra fabric is nice, but it's definitely a thin summer fabric, the sewing quality is good.
The leg finish is nice, the silicone grid inside is very broad, which I like.
I did some 100 miles rides on Zwift with it  ;). The legs were my largest problem. ;D

Just found this amazing item on AliExpress. Check it out! 30,88€  57%OFF | DAREVIE Men's Cycling Bretelle Seamless Men Cycling Shorts 6H 500KM Ride Men's Cycling Bib Shorts Pro Men's Cycling Shorts Women

Onirii released an Aethos clone  8)

https://tinyurl.com/4vjms55p

The link doesn't seem to work. If it's the Aethos style frameset, they've had that on there for awhile. What's new though is their aero road frameset that the Mongolian cycling team is using. The first 10 orders receives a free aero suit.

Re: reccomend me 380mm non-integrated aero handlebar What I found so far:

Currently using Uno 380mm round alloy handlerbars, they are now also available in 360mm https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004667823835.html

If I want to go aero alloy, then 380mm Prime Doyenne from Wiggle https://www.wiggle.com/p/prime-doyenne-aero-handlebar more expensive and heavier probably 350g. Everything on AliExpress is wider 400mm and heavier over 400g

OE-EVKIN for CF round bars in 360 and 380mm https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4001069341353.html

SERAPH 380mm at hoods, 400mm at drops, CF and aero https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000768089212.html

RYET 380mm at hoods and drops, CF and aero https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004789998307.html

ps should of mentioned that as a ride a smaller frame (prefer my weight over the front wheel) I end up running a longer stem, flipped (only a few degrees) so integrated bar and stem is really out. Would drop my bars by over 45mm, I do have limited flexibility  and could not ride a bike with 45mm of spacers (even if they would fit)
