Exactly why I dislike it haha

I guess you are not familiar with the straighforwardness of kubackje. Might sound a bit rude to you, but hey, it's also an opinion (no matter the informativeness) If you get offended by it, I guess that's your problem.

Pardus will be ridden by Total Energies next season, perhaps we can expect better availability in Europe (or perhaps not) 

I sourced all my bolt replacements on Ali, titanium ones. If you are looking for OG Shimano ones, then I would source them locally, will be cheaper imho.

+1 for the Cycplus, I am also very happy with the purchase.

Hey guys,

This trainer recently popped up on Aliexpress, seems to be an original design, as I couldn't identify any similar Magene trainer. Pretty good price for the specs - shipping from Poland, 259 USD currently.

2% accuracy, 15% slope simulation, 2000W max power, electromagnetic resistance, virtual shifting (the thingie included).

Too good to be true? 

I believe there is a whole thread about this trainer, might be worth checking.

Quote from: MarioCanario on October 21, 2026, 08:51:49 AMI would disagree with that. IMO, the R099 and RF10 are identical. TanTan has a different headset area. The "X68 New" fork is also very different in shape (looks sturdier and is heavier on paper).

I stand corrected. Yes, the TanTan is more of a SL8 (front) and SL9 (rear) hybrid, with slightly wider fork. However the geometry 99% identical to the other two frames.

Quote from: MarioCanario on October 21, 2026, 06:27:05 AMwhat makes you think that?

Just check the geometry charts between X68, R099 and RF10, they are identical.

Quote from: siwyyo on October 21, 2026, 05:08:28 AMSo can't wait to comparison this one to RF10, is there any ETA?

They are the same, I can tell you that.

Quote from: m!le90 on October 16, 2026, 01:58:28 PMTavelo is a "premium" Chinese bike brand ?

Do you think 2400 USD doesn't place it in there?

One note regarding YFH - tracking is not ideal as updates come with few days of delay but I've been very happy with the outcome

Proper Chiner is unbothered by the lack of updates on tracking.

Have them as well, and I gotta say I don't really like the look – they kinda look (and feel) flimsy, and they barely hold my Elite FlyTex bottles. They're fine on road, but if it get's even a little rough, I wouldn't trust them.

Interesting, I also use the Elite Fly Tex bottles, and they are rock solid.

Any idea if Goldix 36/60T conical ratchets fit?

Possibly, it is Goldix hub from what I've understood.

I need to silence my ratchet hub, it's a bit too distracting for the neighbors.

Not sure if this will help it silence it. More grease should help, but it's not permanent.

Try educating yourself before dumping a post like this.
