I'm using this Barbieri mini pump and it's flawless, best mini pump I ever had. Rene Herse sells it under it's own label way more expensive. For longer rides, I don't like to trust on an electic pump if I'm rinding solo. Got my son and my partner an AirBank elecric pump and they are happy with it.

Is it the Nuda or the Nana pump you got?

I had both, v2 was leaking & v1 had that lite clip to keep everything together. It's so tiny and if lost you can't use the brakes.
The clip is proprietary so once Zeno stops producing them you can't connect your brakes.

I had to order new clips from ZENO Taiwan in the middle of my bike packing trip.

The Formula Speedlock is both cheaper and have superior construction.

I didn't find any on AliX but Formula speedlock is an alternative,
My Zeno started to leak like h*ll so I recommend staying away from those if you value your health.  ;D

I just got the thru axles in the mail today, the shipping took 15 days to Europe.
Had to pay an extra 50 euro in import tax before the delivery.

It seems like the axles are  to short so when installing the correct thread socket to get the right length the drive side of the hub will be resting on the threads of the thru axle.

Im no mechanic so don't know if it will be an issue but it doesn't feel alright.

Pm'd the seller on AliX but the seller states it's not an issue.
The seller replied within minutes so great support.

Weighted 28gr for the pair with the correct threads installed, changing the thread socket is very easy.

I ordered the set of thru axles, just waiting for them to arrive.
Will give an update when tested.

I'm lightening my 1136 and found some ultralight seat clamp wedges on AliX, not shure if they are compatible though.

Anyone that know what clamp models that fit the 1136?

Thank you

I used it during my recent biketour in Asia and it did hold up well. Even had a large saddlebag attached to the carbon rails without any issues.

It was the Eva padding one though, can't speak for the 3d padding.

That's an important difference!
I have these 210g hubs at home . The ratchet is fully detachable from the hub body. But the free hub, you're description is correct. I attached a photo.
No wear out part should be included in the main hub body.. the free hub can be exchanged. As you could do with a pawl system when you were not willingly to replace the single pawls and/ or the spring.

I got the same hubs but the ratchet mechanism is slipping under load.
Opened the hubs trying to find the issue without any luck.
Did your hubs turn out ok and what seller did you order from?

For those who bought it, any updates on the comfort on the seat post, does it do a great job dampen vibrations?

Thinking about ordering the straight/zero setback one and would appreciate any opinions.

Eskae,

I cant find any sellers with custom-made titanium racks,
I would be grateful if you got a link to share?

Thank you
