Re: Disk brake pads I bought semi-metallic brake pads from Kingstop on Ali Express for my GRX calipers and they are very good so far.

I can't comment on their durability as I only used them for a couple of weeks at the end on the season before winter here in Canada.

Re: Disk brake pads Kingstop works for me with a few different types of brakes.

Re: Disk brake pads I've been using 'Cooma' branded pads, specifically the pink ceramic pads which have been working well. Only sold by Alpha cycling store, so there is some consistency there

Re: Disk brake pads Second vote for Cooma after trying various sources... these consistently work for me:

Re: Disk brake pads One more vote for the pink Cooma.
Silent and smooth.

Re: Spcycle 2023 New Travel 120mm Super Light 29er full suspension frame I expect a lot of people would want something like this as a down-country/short travel trail bike because of the TT and reach numbers.  Which means most would like to see the seat tube lengths shrink by about 30mm for every size in your geo chart for fitting longer dropper posts and lower standover.   You might run out of room for a second bottle cage, but you can move it under the downtube.

Did you happen to get the weight on these?
Unfortunately not, but they aren’t exceptionally light or heavy. Probably in the neighborhood of 200-220 grams or so? Hard to remember, it’s been a year since I got them.

Re: Best and worst overall quality/value components/tools/gear from AliExpress? Ive purchased a bunch of small things that have already been mentioned.  The one thing I keep coming back to is the Mixed 5D saddle.  Great shape and padding, while only 120g.  I put one one all my bikes.  It survived a pretty abusive XC season as well.  Sure beats the hell out of a similar S-Works Power at 10% the cost.

Re: Cheji Clothing I've only ordered their skinsuit, I am 192cm 80kg and went with the large, the fit isn't super tight and quite wide at the neck, also i think the chamois placement isn't that great, it seems very low/far back, give it like a 5/10.

Re: Cheji Clothing Whatare the pockets like on the skinsuit? None of their pictures show them and even the video avoids showing anything but the mildly seductive mewing model
