Re: Interesting Aliexpress finds! - good deals, interesting stuff, new products etc!
I bit the bullet and ordered this power bank/light for longer rides to charge my phone. I was given an additional discount reducing the price to $13 USD, though regular price is $19 USD. I figure I could place it on my phone mount which also uses a Garmin mount interface and I can charge it while riding. I just received this Cyclami/Rock Bros power bank+bike light. It weighs just under 125g, has a slim profile and both the female and male interface garmin mounts are replaceable. The light itself is decently bright, but don't expect great illumination in pitch black conditions. At best the light will be good enough in city conditions for visiblity. Also it comes with both USB-C and lighting charging connectors built-in, though I feel the cord it a bit fragile, so I might go look for a short cable with both USB-C "male" connectors to charge my phone instead. As intended, I plan to use it for it's power bank feature to charge my phone on longer road rides or when I'm on remote gravel bike rides. I only wish it had a bit more power than 5000mah. I can see a market for a bigger unit at the expense of more weight. Overall I think it's a handy device for the price! January 09, 2024, 09:42:02 AM |

Re: Interesting Aliexpress finds! - good deals, interesting stuff, new products etc!
Any recs for rear pannier rack and fenders? Something full-coverage like SKS Longboards. I spent a few hours searching AliEx for racks and fenders a few months ago and concluded that there was not a significant savings over purchasing a name brand from Amazon or a bike-specific vendor. Also, most of the racks and fenders seem aimed at Brompton owners. The only notable deals I could find were on custom-made titanium racks. They aren't cheap ($100+) but they are competitive when priced against the same thing made by Tubus or similar. August 20, 2024, 10:02:48 AM |
