Thanks, yes, that's what was in my mind. I forget how rare the Zipp ones are. I thought Corima did it too, but can't find the details, so I'm presuming they did not in fact do it.

I think Corima are only permanently convertible. It's a new hub system that has to be fitted at the factory. Planet X did a convertible one at one point which was probably open mould.

£7 for a rock bros bell?! I paid no more than £2 each for my three in recent years

Pro-Lite did/do one too

£2 from a U.K. seller?

On AliExpress they seem to be around £4-6. They also have more plastic one for less than £2. I found the plastic rivet that holds the bell in always snaps on these.

Not a UK seller admittedly, and I've bought all of mine from eBay, the came from china in under a week. I can see that they're all about £4 on there now.

thought these were pretty cool https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/SW-3701-Trolley-Type-Sperm-Collector_60488520843.html?spm=a2700.7724857.normalList.1.2a2aa0ceXslyWZ

Looks like a group of Dr Who baddies

Does anyone know of any copies of a carbonworks bottle cage? Also asking for a friend...

that's not how it works. It's the same in Belgium. Bell or don't bell, you're fucked.

I lived and cycled in the NL all my life. It is how it works. Problem is there's too many racy cunts here trying to up their strava game on busy cyclepaths

Any good 25.4 multi hand position bars on Aliexpress? Only ones I’ve found were titanium and oversized

Yeah, I live in Belgium. Problem is the difference between the racy cunts and the "look-the-sun-is-here-better-find-the-bike-i-haven't-ridden-in-two-years-and-clutter-the-bikepaths". They are both oblivious to other traffic and a bell doesn't help IMO.

Found a vcls copy on the aliexpress.. anyone offer review/opinion

Have ordered some of these, appear to be identical to sram rotors for a fiver, found some evidence on STW that they’re identical save for the rounded edge on the official sram ones. Will report back!

Has anyone bought a pair of foakleys or pocs recently? Most recent links in this thread aren’t working anymore.

Yeah, I brought some more jawbreaker clones that didn't have changeable lenses or arms, they look crap. Search 'cycling glasses' and scroll till you see the ones you want for around £10-15, avoid the really cheap ones (think I paid £2 so no loss)

Search 'cycling glasses', sort by ‘orders’, and scroll till you see the ones you want for around £10-15, avoid the really cheap ones (think I paid £2 so no loss)

FIFY

Thanks, 'sort by orders' makes sense but the new app seems to do this by default (at least for me)?

These look more or less the jobbie, but as always with AliExpress ymmv.

Ah ok, maybe they’ve changed it. Mine still defaults to the reassuringly vague “best match”

Anyone seen any Oakley Eyeshade replicas on there recently? Can't seem to find any...
