    Farsports ‘up and coming!’ Fact is they are one of the OG Chinese OEM suppliers with over 15 years in the game…. As for recurring tubeless flats, sealants are usually latex based, and CO2 freezes the sealant stopping it from sealing….

    at the time i found the wheel options, the dealers around told me they recently made headway into markets such as japan and sg! nevertheless, good to get their items before the marketing costs pile up! 😂

    Found the channel through Chris Miller, really enjoying the content... Ref tire pressure I wish I lived in a region that allowed for 110 psi, a lot of our roads in the UK are hideous and getting worse every winter. I am seriously looking to go to 30+mm around and 70-80 psi, historically I used 25mm at 100 but I am shaking my filling loose due to the hideous roads here.

    What is his saddle height? You should start posting this along with saddle tip to center of handlebars distance. But great review!

    I think I am the only other person with this exact same bike, also bought from Bukit Pasoh. But, I haven't rode it for more than 1 year.

    If you are looking for trouble - buy some RX4+ 😀If you need good brakes buy shimano. The cheapest GRX or 105 is much better and easier than those fancy RXs. In wet conditions a nightmare, caliper as mentioned - malfunktion after a few rides. Buy shimano and be happy.

    Sounds like he should have spent his money on a custom frame considering all that stack underneath the stem, and also considering he mentioned the next size up (52cm) was too big and he was too stretched out.

    Gotten lots of flame for the stem stack, but tbh its only because I was lazy to get it cut... will get around to that one of these days! 😂
