For me, aliexpress.com links on this forum sometimes end up in a wonky redirect that doesn't work properly, while aliexpress.us links do what they're meant to do (it may be different based on your location).

https://aliexpress.com/item/1005006457498617.html -> redirect that ends up on the AliExpress home page
https://aliexpress.us/item/1005006457498617.html -> gets me to the product page
If you right click on that first link and paste it into a text editor it looks like this;
"https://redirect.viglink.com/?format=go&jsonp=vglnk_170616735001211&key=b27c327a33221fbd44a77db81ff6b4d1&libId=lrsvyliw0103g1ix000ULffz65kf6&loc=https%3A%2F%2Fchinertown.com%2Findex.php%2Ftopic%2C3910.1275.html&v=1&out=https%3A%2F%2Faliexpress.com%2Fitem%2F1005006457498617.html&ref=https%3A%2F%2Fchinertown.com%2Findex.php%2Ftopic%2C3910.1290.html&title=Interesting%20Aliexpress%20finds!%20-%20good%20deals%2C%20interesting%20stuff%2C%20new%20products%20etc!&txt=https%3A%2F%2Faliexpress.com%2Fitem%2F1005006457498617.html"

What you need to do is copy the link by highlighting the text and then paste it into the address bar. I have no idea why this is happening or why it only effects some links and some people.
Hope this helps.

Upon closer inspection, and watching Specialized's video, it's not the same shock. Of course, it could be very good.
Much of what makes the WC so special is the custom suspension and it's tune ability. Of course, you pay a lot for it.

I've been looking at this myself. The seller I contacted only said that it came with the rear shock, but the ones in the picture look exactly like the original without stickers. The seller, Antony Bicycle Frame Store, seemed a bit more expensive that others who were selling it, but so far no-one has given feed back.

mirphak, the bike looks great, and I'm glad to hear it rides so well. How is the tyre clearance at the back? You have 2.35 and Lexon says that's the max, but I wonder if you could get a little more in there.

Road Bike Frames, Wheels & Components / Re: LTWOO ER9 & ERX - Electronic groepsets

I seem to have read that the maximum rear sprocket for this group is 32 teeth, but some sellers on Ali are packaging it with an 11-34 cassette. Does anyone have any more information or practical experience with this?

Thanks. It seems that if I copy the text of the link and paste it into the address bar, it works. If I click on it, it just takes me to the Ali home page. :-\
Thanks for the links.

Hi, Thanks for all the info. I'm pleased that the wheels seem the right size. Sadly, that link has gone already! I don't do WhatsApp but I might have to give it a go.
The ProX wheels look good too, but I really like the Zipp. I think the Farsports are too expensive.
Thanks for your help.

The bike looks great.
I've been looking at replica Zipp 454s for a while. Sun Bike store seems to have gone, and all the ones I've found have said that the external wheel width is 25mm. but Zipp's website says it should be 28mm. Could I ask what the width of yours are? Did you note the internal width.
Thanks for sharing this build.
