    I remember saying on this channel a few weeks ago that I got a carbon handlebar from aliexpress. I wanted to offer an update.
    Update: it’s been great. I’ve done a number of rides as well as daily commuting around campus. Took a while to get the right torque on the bolts since I don’t have a torque wrench. I had it slightly too loose and the bar would drop down after a while. I will say that I’m a lightweight rider at 140lbs and so there isn’t really much stress going into the bars.

    This bike was really easy to assemble czcams.com/users/postUgkxMesz3KOGEmwmvyKQfLfrRSUXLFzfVHZA and required very few adjustments out of the box. The wheels did not require any truing/adjustments. The frame had some small scratches, but nothing major.I did replace the seat though - the seat it came with was very uncomfortable. The tires need to be re-inflated every 4-5 days, but this appears to be quite common for the narrow 700x25 tires.Overall, in my opinion, this bike looks and rides like a much more expensive bike.

    There's an "uncanny valley" kind of situation with those wheels.

    Weight is not that big a deal. Don't by a bike by how much it weighs . A person weighs between 70 and 80 kilos. This bike weighs 7 kg. So it's effect on performance is marginal. Even if it weighed 1 kg it only makes a few percent difference . My advice is get a way cheaper bike that weighs 10kg and then eat less to lose 3 kg. Exact same outcome except you save a lot of money and get healthier. If you really want to be fit and strong then ride a bike that's really heavy , say 15kg. Then you will have to lose a lot more and become stronger to ride it. That's how we did it years ago. Ride a heavy winter training bike and then ride a lighter bike in the race, but never train on your race bike.

    Imagine having the design capability of a company like Enve, and the unfettered freedom of carbon fiber as a construction material, and then coming up with this absolute cookie cutter bike... smh

    • @GCPerformance18
      @GCPerformance18  Před rokem +2

      lmao, yea the design is very basic, I mean it would have been great if it came out 4 years ago, but it looks copy and paste to everything else, not saying thats a problem because I like the look of the sl7 so I like the look of this bike, but I wish they would have came out with something that represents envebike brand style. also the bike rides amazing the feel quality is nice and stiff

      We know that not the case though, for example we know they could omit the seatstays given modern carbon capability.

      @@speedpower2740 They "buffet" in the wind, you can actually feel and hear it happening. I'm not certain regarding the "actual" speed difference, but the feel and noise was not good at all. They can also be very difficult to put tires on - and I would not count on being able to change a tire road side after a puncture. It was super difficult, even in the workshop. I have ridden many many different wheels, including Enve, Roval, LightWeights, Campagnolo Bora's, Shimano Dura Ace etc etc, and would not choose the BA's above any of them. My go to wheel for climbing days are LightWeights, and for all round / crit days I go Enve's...

      @@GCPerformance18 Maybe ask if you can give them a try. Interestingly they’ve now brought out an “aero” version of these wheels, so maybe they’ve done some further testing and streamlined them.
