Orient Express - Cheap Chinese Rims / Wheels / Forks / Frames / Cranks / Etc

They're so thick that I ended up using double-chainring bolts to fit them to my crank.

Aren't most n/w rings like that?

I'd imagine its the material quality rather than the thickness

Looking for a finishing kit on a new road bike project. After spotting @swedeee recommendation on a seatpost and without going back through 100 pages has anyone got any recommendations for bar/stem?

Thanks in advance

anyone got recommendations for carbon rims/wheels for 29x2.3 tyres, year round fairly hard use?

Did someone on the forum design this?:

Anyway, someone out there's now knocking them off :-/

Has anyone had experience of wheels from Carbonda? Just emailed for a price and details on the 505 frame and asked about rims as well - their catalogue shows a couple of wheel options.

Forum approved 1 1/8th cx disc fork?

... And forum approved 1 1/8 - 1 .5 tapered 12mm thru axle gravel disc fork?

@phildas yours looks decent (from 2 pages back) but I already have 12mm adapters for my hope hoops and I think new adapters are like 40 quid? Best options?

The one i got is 15mm TA though sadly.

How much did you pay? Trying to figure out if I should go 15mm ta on the fork and get new adapters for my wheels.

Ended up about a hundred quid all in after customs charges

is there a forum approved cheap chinese smartphone for less than £100?

Moto G

Can someone give me a link to those Enve-a-like road forks (non-disk) please? Thank you.

If you can stretch closer to 150 there are some nice ones from xiaomi

chinese smartphone

Show me one which isn't :)

Nokia 3 from GiffGaff would be my choice at that price point.

Does anyone on here get their pedal straps from AliX? Recommendations welcome.

Anyone thinking getting some rims from light-bicycle? Was thinking placing an order soon to get some training wheels for the track and road bike.

Interested :)

Boom! I’ll give it till the end of the week before we get the ball rolling, plus for anyone who might be interested too to hop on board ;)

Definitely, the more the merrier
