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

Apologies - I misread, looked like the black Friday discounts were smaller (so didn't seem worth mentioning unless they were additional) but as @spinnnout says.

Could I also request code please?

Discount- PRO RIMS: 30% PRO WHEELS: 15%

I've done some math on this and basically buying rims with 30% off, to then get built into wheels with new components, works out very close to a diluted 15% discount they offer on full wheels.

Just to say that unless buying rims to replace/build with existing components then there are very marginal savings to be found.

Yeah, that would be my expectation, but a man can dream... Just found the wording on their response to @tmevans a bit confusing. Like, why would they bring the BF discount up?

Has any found a company like naturehike / aegis max that do micro down jackets, need something for work but high chance of getting ripped

I came to a similar conclusion when I made an order recently, only thing that made me decide for rims in the end was the hope that I can find the hubs I want 2nd hand.

I do have another full wheel built by LB though and the build quality has been great so that also speaks for getting full builds from them.

Lidl middle.

Did you get anywhere with this? Interested in similar

Found a genesis cgr1 fork on ebay. Would've preferred one without mounts though. On my search found Wilde bikes have one, though is pricey. Shame Condor don't sell any of their options direct. Maybe you could convince them you needed a replacement

Good idea , just seen regatta have some very cheap ones too

Looking for a rigid carbon fork in BOOST format. Any recomendation?
Ideally 480 ace to crown to replace a 100mm suspension.

have to agree - great wheelbuilds from them (assume they are done by hand vs. machine)

FWIW Spinnnnnouts code gives a bigger discount than the BF code on rims

Best place to order Magene P505?
Ebay, Aliex, or their website?

120mm (at least🙂) × 17° china carbon stem to hold the china carbon bars. Had a Specialized Comp Multistem for experimental purposes, this is 38g lighter and the low stack and dropped centreline will go lower than the Specialized with 4° shim if necessary

The world has changed

This event has turned my world upside.

Nothing is certain anymore.

Nothing is certain anymore

What is certain is that stem solutions to my particular problem were either £15 china carbon or FSA NS Drop at four or five times the price. My general reluctance to recommend carbon stems is that they are usually heavier and more expensive than forged aluminium alloy equivalents.

Also, do as I say, not as I do. I might still be wrong about the viability of this stem.

Panda podium ?

I want to buy Avian Canary handlebars but they are not available at Panda podium. What are other reputable marketplaces?

I’ve got this Hylix fork. I remember reading here a while back that some headsets leave a pretty noticeable gap. Has anyone used one / can recommend one that lines up nicely?
