Cheap jerseys and gel bib shorts and good quality:

Quality seems great for a <£30 kit. Jersey feels on a par with the Milltag Forum jersey. Haven't ridden in the bibs yet but the pad and fit seem great.

FWIW - mrs_com lost her shit when she saw it. She now owns the cap, apparently.

Tapered rigid thru axel 29er fork suggestions please?

For reference, http://carboncycles.cc/ have tapered carbon monocoque QR15(100mm OLD), 490mm a-c, 42mm rake, £192, in stock.

I think i'll try these

Reviews are good.

Shame there's no super hi-gloss 12K finish. Seriously though, looks promising.

I'll get ID probably, probably Matt.

Canyon VCLS copy arrived this morning so I have fitted it.
Looks good and I will let you know if it ride ok when I go for a spin tomorrow.

I also fitted the 15t pulleys oversize RD cage. Looks good bit sure it will save anything.

Nice. Thinking of getting one of those posts as well.

I am interested in a a cyclocross disc race frame for QR wheels and BSA bb. Any recommendations?

I am looking at HF-FM089, but max size is 56, which seems more like a 58 in other sizes though.
I'd like a longer head tube (+200 instead of 185mm) to get higher stack, lower bb drop (70 instead of 61mm), and a 575mm top tube instead of 565. Has anybody seen something like this online?
It is perfect cable routing for my needs and options of choosing BSA is great.

Are there any Chinese carbon drop bars that won't kill me or be shit?

No

Ordered some of the jawbreakers, lenses are completely fucked, return or open a dispute?

Good to know, will continue to avoid them :)

Yes basically first time in this thread. Ill look through yours posts then...

fuckinel @Vince that vcls post looks like it could be quite painful! Be careful!

I've been riding some Chinese copy of a Specialized Aerofly bar branded as ENVE and it's not killed me or flexed unreasonably yet. But I'm a maverick risk-taker

Hmm... @blacklisted
Time for an update on this post. How are you getting on with them?
