Funny how you've gone on a political rant in the space you've literally called non political. Seems like typical confused democrat hypocrisy.
Just wanted to add to the body of knowledge. I ordered 2 of these (delivery issues, different story). One fit a bit tight on a Shimano bb, so it didn't spin as freely as I'd like, and the other which looks exactly the same wouldn't fit into the BB at all. It feels like it is a third of a mm too wide, and a rubber mallet might break the bb. Bottom line, the manufacturing tolerances are pretty loose, so you may end up getting a good one, or one that is frustratingly close to good enough (but not quite). I could've probably sanded it down to fit, or done some other stuff to make it fit.
As far as I am concerned every person now who's trying to paint positive picture about whatever is happening is a bad apple.
I am lucky I got all the parts I ordered in the last month but now I am done. Every day there is a new brain fart and things are tossed around like toddler playing in the sand. Its as infuriating as it is dangerous and I am now in fully "save the cash" mode whatever tht cash will be worth in coming months I am sure it will be better than some bike parts. I have stopped scouring eBay, FB Marketplace, OfferUp for used parts/frames too and trying to downsize my current stable of 8 bikes to 3.
Get this, a bunch of orders said they were out for delivery, but that was 2 days. I'm beginning to wonder if the delivery driver is just sitting on the packages or something?
I caved today… Got ER9, a Lexon 24mm crankset and few other items. Stocking up a new build next year. Based on prices over the last month, I saved between 150-200.00 overall. Almost pulled the trigger on some carbon wheels but I couldn’t find what I wanted.
I've tried CF and titanium cages and I just go back to plastic cages mainly due to fit issues. This is one area where plastic just does a good job being secure.
I'm not an experienced builder. If I buy the version that comes with a bottom bracket, I should be good to go, correct? I've never used DUB and usually stick with Shimano. But the bottom bracket will fit in all threaded bottom bracket frames correct? Then I will be good for the cranks to go in the provided bottom bracket. I was gonna put it in either my Knolly Fugitive or my my BXT Hightower clone. They are both threaded so I should be good right? Or am I missing something? Is it the right width? Will I need spacers? Thanks guys
my experience is rhinowalk just can't be beaten for a toptube or saddle bag from aliex. to get better you'll be looking at 3x the price elsewhere imo.
