Congrats karstenhorn. Your holiday will be complete

yeah taobao is lot cheaper than ebay. 

Yes you can feel the differences. Tried the normal and change it to sprint. I felt the rotation more effective than normal. Very satisfied with the product.

Here is the link where I bought it. Beware!!! It is in Chinese but we are in Chinertown.

thanks @ IRaphl. Finally solve the problem. One of the bearing was not in place. One advise I would recommend is not to dis-assembled the bearing housing and it is a headache. .

Last night I finally decided to service my Deore XT M8000 SPD Pedal. I dis-assemble it easily  and re-grease the bearing insides. But the problem is when I re-installed it. When you spin it freely it has a sound popping and it feels very tight. Tried the process many times. Problem is still there  . Anyone knows how or anybody service there own xt pedals and experienced like this??

Finally bought the elliptical chainring. First impression is good. It has a 3 settings. 1st is for sprint. 2nd is normal and 3rd is for climbing. Still experimenting which setting is the best. As for the tooth clearance.... chain is always in place.

Definitely you can't go wrong with carbonspeed and nice choices of parts. Will wait for your built. Goodluck !

It seems it has been over torque. 

Nice selection of parts. Post your final built!

yes agreed with ottereni. I remember mine... also in back days . I broke the seatstay. dunno why but I am only around 120 pounds back then. In conclusion branded or not it has still its lifespan!!!!

another happy satisfied Chiner buyer. 

Definitely interesting. But I love my Shimano XT's.

Chinese Hubs are good just keep it well maintained. Always grease it especially after a long wet ride.

I been eyeing this! Anybody know about this?
