Did you determine your full, built-up bike weight? I imagine it's not a lightweight, just curious how the entire build translated.

Weight aside, that's actually a pretty sharp looking build for such a low price.

Did anyone order and test one of these Lexon SP-LE18 seatposts?
I bought this one:

On one of the pictures it says "Compatible with 7x7mm rails, 7x9mm carbon rails (adapter included)."
However no adapter came with it, wondering if it takes 7x7 and 7x9 with the same clamp or if my shipment was missing the adapter?

Lexon seems to be a pretty good brand, but that seatpost scares me! One little ol' crack and you'll have a carbon spear through your nether regions. At least, that's what my brain thinks when it sees those tiny chinese carbon spars pointing up towards where you store the nether regions.

On the China side of things, it takes usually 3 days to get my Items into customs.  It is the USA side it is now a super slow 12 to 15 days.   Sure seems to me that China kicks USA's butt regarding delivery time and efficiency, and USPS is really slow these days.  (Last year for about a month I was receiving packages in about 8 days, now it is back up to 12+ days.  )

I think they use DHL or some other service to get the package to a regional USPS center closer to you before USPS takes over and does the "last mile" or something like that. I see the same thing on my end. Some orders seem to get hung up on that stage for me for quite a while. Once USPS gets their hands on it, though, it seems to go pretty quick. There's one particular USPS regional facility that always screws up my packages (not just Ali, but other mail I track has issues there, also), but anything not going through that particular center seems to be great. In fact, USPS is among the faster more reliable shippers, IMO. UPS is pretty good. FedEx sucks donkey balls.

They do sound good but your earlier comment re them being bulky and the AE pics seem to show the palm pads being both thick (3mm is mentioned but it looks more to my eye) & 90 degree angles at the edge - I wonder do you find them awkward as you move your hands around on the bar?

If we're talking about the InBike gloves that I found to be warm, then yes they are a bit bulky. Not uncomfortable, though. I don't think I have an issue with the pad, specifically. Moreso just the overall fit and finish. I ordered the medium, which more most other gloves results in a fairly snug and comfortable fit for my hands. For Pearl Izumi, the medium is a nice fit. Even for Lameda, the medium/large is a nice fit. But for these, the medium is just bulky and rather loose, with extra long fingers. I'm not confident that simply sizing down would fix the problem, as it may also be too tight in other places. It's just an awkward cut and fit.

Actually, now that I think about it, my biggest issue is probably the fingers. I have no dexterity to interact with my bike computer, or even to accurately shift on my road shifters. Hell, I rode with them yesterday (snowpocalypse here in the US south) on my mountain bike and found thumb shifting awkward.

In short, they're warm and I like them for that, but just know that they're bulky and awkward fitting.

Looks like these on AE - https://vi.aliexpress.com/item/32725820355.html?

Yep. Those are the ones. Amazon price wasn't much difference. I can say they were nice and warm, not very breathable so my hands did sweat some at or above freezing temps, but I guess you don't want "breathable" in a super cold weather glove.

My Lameda gloves arrived. I just rode with them this morning. I'm not impressed. The fit was good and they look nice, but they were not very warm, not very windproof, and the padding for the grip and bars was mostly cosmetic and provided no real cushioning. My hands were quite cold and the temps were above 5deg C a( 40deg F) and sunny. Pretty sure it was about 7deg C and my hands were still cold.

I think if you do not hear a lot about it, there is not really a lot to complain.

This has been what I think is going on with the Ltwoo eGR. Either they didn't sell many of them (which I maybe used to think) or they sold a bunch of them (which is what I now think) and there has been very, very little to talk about.

Any thoughts on those Pace Beams? I'm considering getting some myself.

It turns out that the ones I bought are probably the Pace Beams. Ali express vendors are nuts, and this is the kind of stuff they do that shoots themselves in the foot. Different product listing, slightly different description, but same "model number" (I think) and the same pictures and ultimately the same description. So, yeah, I think I bought the pace beams, inadvertently.

That's the "nicer" pair I bought. The other, cheaper, pair I bought seems to have no name, but it's the one with "stress ball" written on the heel. I took the cheaper pair for a run the other night and they seemed fine. They fit comfortably, they had a high, large, comfortable sole with a rounded heel, and were as light as any other shoe I've run in, despite the size. I has happy to have the padding, and I seemed to run as fast (or faster) as my usual 2mi run. I had about a 30sec per mile pace increase at no increase in HR, so I can at least say that they didn't slow me down at all. I'm not sure I can say they made me faster, but it was all in the neighborhood of "good". I'm happy enough for $35!

The Pace Beams came in last night. I tried them on and they fit comfortably, but I did not go for a run yet. This is my first pair of "super shoes" (if you want to call them that) and I am blown away by the feel of them. That carbon fiber sole plate is a helluva thing! I can't believe how much bounce it gives, just from walking around. I'm intrigued how it will translate to a run, but I can't imagine it will be bad. If nothing else, I like a stiff sole so I expect I'll be happy enough, as long as there are no hot spots and as long as they hold up well. As for "holding up well", my $70 or so Brooks shoes are noticeably less comfortable to run in after only 100mi, so there's not a high bar to clear for these $70 "super shoes". As long as they don't fall apart on my foot in the next 4-6mo, then I think they'll be worth it.
