Some interesting finds:

1. New elita one vibration dampening seatposts
27.2 350mm comes in at ~150g

2. Cheaper alternative to the tripeak asymmetric oversized pulley wheels that chinacycling reported on at china cycle. I remember someone on here was interested in those. Maybe jonathonf2?

3. Fake alugear chainrings

Can't find that seatpost or pulley wheels either. Definitely interested in that seatpost! Those chainrings are searchable though. The shop that sells them has many other fake items too. I think I bought my EE brakes from them last year.

This HideMyBell GPS mount replica seems interesting:

I have one of those hidemybell copies on my partner's bike. It's good enough for the price. Would buy again.

Sorry totally forgot!

Elita one seatpost seems to be only on taobao and not on alie at the moment
Taobao link:

You could possibly ask their alie store if/when they will start selling them

Pulley wheel link posted by PLA. Also seems to be only on taobao

And considering that even some genuine ones snap(ped) at the clamp ...
(In addition to the counterfeit branding cringe)

I'd prefer a non-branded one but had been using a 90mm one of those stems for a while. Super light as expected. Quality? Well my sample of 1 is actually decent. Not had issues with torquing it up or signs of fatigue. Whenever something light, even from a reputable brand, is being sold, the mechanical restraints will be lower with less material so not surprised to hear genuine ones have had issues. I have now swapped it for another tem but that was just to reduce my reach a bit and find I prefer my new position. The reviews on the IX2AL ripoffs are very mixed so seemingly I got a good one.
