Re: No AliExpress knock-off on SRAM XPLR 13-speed 10-46T yet?
If you've got the money to lash out on SRAM Red 13 speed, I don't think the cost of a cassette worries you too much. The Chinese Wheeltop GeX wireless derailleur can work with up to 14 speeds cassettes, hence should work with the new SRAM Red 13 speed. Hence the ask. The beauty of the Wheeltop GeX is that it can work for multiple speeds, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 cassettes. March 06, 2025, 10:22:03 AM |

Re: New Tantan Seraph X71 - Replica Factor Ostro VAM V2 (UDH)
Anyone using this frame tried 32C tires? And also why does it say "only supports electronic gearshifting" and then "Both mechanical and DI2 can be used", what does that mean?

Re: Lightcarbon: LCR018-D (endurance all-road)
Clarification of some issues regarding the LCR018-D frame set, 1, the seat post have two options: 0mm offset and 15mm offset, The second option was originally designed with a 20mm offset, but after testing, we found a 15mm offset to be more stable, so that's the final version. The default offset for the seatpost is 0mm, as the 15mm seatpost is still in production. 2. about the max chainring a. If use Shimano crankset, max 2x chainring 54-40T, max 1x chainring 42T (smaller ones are all fine). b. If use Sram crankset, max 2x chainring 56-43T, max 1x chainring 54T (smaller ones are all fine). if install the chainring Sram 56-43T with CL 45mm, there is a space width 5.8mm to the frame, it's enough, if 1X 54T, the space is 7.8mm, check the attached photos. If you have more questions, please leave a message or contact your sales representative, or contact jim@Lightcarbon.com August 24, 2025, 09:56:17 PM |

Re: TPU puncture repair... more than one way
So far, I've tried patching two RideNow TPU tubes. I didn't ride them too long, and each had just one small puncture hole. If the TPU tube is somewhat old or has a dodgy valve, I wouldn't bother trying to patch it. I cut out a small patch from an old tube and glued it on with 'CAMPLAST - Cement' glue (pretty cheap and strong stuff). After letting it dry, I put some more glue around the edges of the patch. Don't know if this is the best method, but it doesn't take a lot of work, and I haven't had a problem with those tubes so far. Also interested in trying the 'melting method' from the video above.

Re: Thinkrider PP5 power meter
Always wait for our Patron Saint of Power Meters GPLama before buying. No GPLama review, No buy from me. January 12, 2026, 12:17:38 PM |

Re: Thinkrider PP5 power meter
In GPLama we trust Cheers, I appreciate the support. I'm just the messenger. It's the data we trust (even when it's bad, it's still data). 😅 Maybe one day there will be an industry standard these power meters have to pass before they're allowed to be sold. I suspect a LOT of power meter manufacturers don't want to see that and are happy getting away with printing whatever they like on their tech specs. January 14, 2026, 06:03:11 PM |
