Stone sell braze on extender things you could try.

That's pathetic. Atrocious quality and customer service from Lightcarbon.

« on: December 19, 2024, 01:55:16 PM »What I don't get is how can someone can be pro-tariffs, but then show up to the MAGA group ride with an all-Chinese bike?
I spend about half my time in shenzhen, and rock up to my group ride there on my sl7, when I'm back home like now (I'm actually saudi, not murican) I do sometimes rock up on a chinese oem frame.

« on: December 19, 2024, 01:50:00 PM »I love how these MAGA Trumpers are basically vegans telling you they are vegan.I swear they literally have to tell everyone how they like another man or they explode. So weird that PLA literally made his forum signature about Trump on a carbon fiber forum. This literally is a non political space lmao
Funny how you've gone on a political rant in the space you've literally called non political. Seems like typical confused democrat hypocrisy.

It works perfectly fine. Just adjust the b screw to match 11-30 spec.

I don't see nothing wrong with the model and name.

« on: November 29, 2024, 11:51:41 PM »Trying to connect with the company and it seems Kelly is not very responsive. It takes a few follow-up emails and calls to her Whatsapp before I get a reply. I don't know if she's thinking I'm wasting her time. LOL. Sad. I'm basically trying to get a set of wheels, but one in 27.5 and one in 29, and the 29er is out of stock right now. Just trying to get a handle on when the 29ER one will be in stock... I hope she replies soon. I guess this is the price we pay when we want to order direct-to-manufacturer
Never paid that price when ordering direct from farsports.

« on: November 29, 2024, 05:07:25 PM »Yeah, that INBIKE seems like a decent newcomer (or have I just noticed them in the last few months?)
They seem to have a link to lameda, might make some stuff for them. I had a set of shorts from them but the pad was so gigantic I had to return them, but try another set in future with a different pad. Quality seemed good.

Can vouch for speeder bars. I have the regular bar, not integrated stem/bar, and it's really good.

« on: November 14, 2024, 01:36:00 AM »with all due respect, nobody's going to start making $25 12-sp cassettes in the US. that option is just going to disappear, and you'll be paying $100 like before this whole AE thing came into being. whether that's progress or not is up to you to decide.
With all due respect, Making America Great Again is more important to me than poor shifting $25 cassettes.
