Re: Spcycle 2023 New Travel 120mm Super Light 29er full suspension frame Dear All
The aluminum alloy rocker arm has been manufactured. We will start to send aluminum alloy rocker arms to customers for free next week.
At the same time, we have also updated the mold for the carbon rocker arm. The new rocker arm will be thicker and stronger.
Bset Regards
David

Re: Wide rims for wheelbuilding I searched for wide rims and found more Q's than definitive answers. But I did find some good options at Light Bicycle like these: https://www.lightbicycle.com/carbon-road-gravel-cx-disc-bike/rims/700C--24-25mm.

Now I get in the internal debate that buying rims, hubs, spokes, and nipples separately at retail prices is the same or sometimes more than buying a complete wheel. I guess the long term value is buying good hubs and then using them with multiple rims over the years, changing out the bearings as needed.

Re: Interesting Aliexpress finds! - good deals, interesting stuff, new products etc! thanks tho I'm in Europe. Luckily I found a source for the genuine V2 Avids near me, will shell out for those I think.

The JTek Shiftmade Zero is currently in production too, for 30€.

Re: Chinarello Dogma F (100% Aliexpress Build) the intent of my build is just simply to copy one of the best bike art available at the cheapest way possible, rather than a nothing cheap bland bikes...

Re: Chinarello Dogma F (100% Aliexpress Build) holy moly that looks awesome!! :D
dont care what other ppl say!

Could you also provide links and total cost?
I am(and have been on the verge of getting vbr218 for a long time now) very interested of building my own but never pulled the thumb out. But this build looks sick!

Re: "Lucky Cat", my custom Waltly is finished and about to be shipped. Thank you. I went for the Chinese "zhāocáimāo" rather than Japanese Maneki-neko, because...well...China. I enjoyed doing the graphic design and seeing my artwork turn out so well on the frame. Amy at Waltly has been very easy to work with. I turned my final drawing into a blueprint that's already hanging on my wall.

Can't swap the freehub body? What your after doesn't exist unless you have it made by a machinist.
Buzzer sound!  Incorrect answer!   Below is a link to what you need.  A Shimano spaced cassette that fits XDR!

Re: Bikepacking rig I am attaching a picture of my 29er hardtail, slacker, Waltly-custom TI framed bike camper.   This is in its fully loaded camping mode.  I use this rig for my longer trips (Like Divide Trail sections, 600+- mile trips) where I ride 50 to 70 miles per day and set up camp each evening.  One can see that I run a dropper post and use "H" drop bars.  This bike is very comfortable on gravel and single track trails.  Fully loaded bike and luggage weighs in at 55 to 60 lbs, depending on amount of food and water I carry.    In contrast, for "Bikepacking" races/rides, where I ride over 100 miles per day, this rig is too slow and I switch over to either my carbon 29er hardtail or my conventional 2X12 gravel bike.  (These bikes beat the heck out of me, but I carry a lot less weight, and sleep most of the time in hotels or lodges.)   Depending on the ride/route, I can swap to my 100mm travel Rock Shox SID suspension fork in about 20 minutes, but this adds more weight.
