I like the previous version with removable batteries. But patents are the reason we can't have nice things. Can't believe you can patent removal batteries.

Surprise to me that Hambini wasn't met at the door with some disgruntled bike manufacturers' Restraining Order.

nice to know you shit yourself too when someone shouts "HELLO HAMBINI FANS" from no where. cheers for the vid. hugely insightful for someone who's never been or seen these.

You know when you have made it when a large company won't let you test ride their cranks. It says a lot from Shimano.

Wrists are angled at about 19° but few manufacturers seem to understand that! good to see somebody who knows...

There is another Korean bike frame manufacturer brand with weird name too. Wiawis bike. 😅 As Korean American living in the US, sometimes I cringe at their naming sense.

Uuh! Thanks for covering this stuff - love to see it! ❤ This is always the most interesting stuff.

I've been riding those Powerway carbon hubs for the last 8 years. They have been absolutely great.

Yes Hambini! Finally ❤

you always seem like such a fun guy when actually interaction with other humans

Does Shimano really hold a grudge? They seem to be down on Shane Miller as well. Its 2024, these guys need to get a modern brand manager.

it is awesome to have a user level reviewer into new players in cycling industry, thank you Hambini! great content!

I have Kin Lin wheels on an early 90s Concorde road bike hanging behind me. I believe they were the stock wheels. They are doing great.

Thanks!!!

Magicshine is making great lights 👌 highly recommended 👍

I just love the idea of random conference attendees wondering why that man was screaming into a camera.

I have built wheelsets with KinLin rims over the years. Their rims are widely available through UK outlets such as The Cycle Clinic and Spa Cycles. As Hambini says, they are often rebranded.

What’s the value behind buying carbon wheels for 300 and hoping it’s one of the good or it’s one of the bad ones? We shouldn’t play lottery with our body

1:05 Powerway, always had a soft spot for them. I had the PHR 36 hub you're looking at on a pair of Superteam rim brake wheels back in like 2016

I've just returned from ALDI and they swore no wheels are available

Nice, didn't know you were going

Finally some cool stuff. Was kinda dissapointed by the mainstream coverage. 🙂

You should carry a kitchen scale in with you next time.

@2.30..........'hidden nipples' are a really bad idea IMHO. Erosion is pretty much inevitable due to the egress of water inside the rims [ie: rain, washing bike etc]. I experienced this with a set of Reynolds wheels - pretty much every time I went for a ride a spoke would break. Have steered well clear of internally fixed nipples ever since.

Luke at Trace Velo is awesome, that Aliexpress stuff can be more than reasonable. As for Kin Lin? They've been going for decades, Taiwan's answer to Araya perhaps (who were ubiquitous on lots of bikes in the 1980 and early 1990s)
