    Rear mechs operate at their best with their stock from factory cage, especially regards gear changing. Put your trust in Shimano/Sram/Campag etc , would an aftermarket company that's 5mins old really know better than Campag since 1933,Shimano since the 60s,Sram since 2009.

      For the rear derailleur itself, I would totally agree. But like I said in the video. After the chain was the perfect length again, there was just no perceivable difference in shifting from having a different cage on there. Worked exactly the same as far as I could feel.

    you forgot also to mention that making something bigger on your bike usually helps compensating if you have something else small....
    just joking.. good content!

    Put ceramicspeed cage on two of my bikes , definitely didn't feel any difference , just done it because I like the look of it 🔥🔥 nice video again dude 👌

      Sounds like everyone is have the same. Feels no different but if you like the look, it adds a lot of character to the bike. I’m going to keep mine on. The bike would look naked without it now.
      I appreciate the kind words 🙌🏼

      @cyclingunboxed definitely adds some character,.did look odd at first then i got use to the size 🤣 had one of them painted the matt black to match the rear mech , then the ceramic speed logo painted on in the same colour as the decals on the frame 👌 bit sad but it does blend everything together nicely

    • @cyclingunboxed

      Nah, not sad at all. Why not make it match and look good. I think some people find it too much but I think it’s just a sign of how much you like your bike.
      And if you enjoy it then all the more reason to do it

    Tripeak has some really cool locking and not that expensive option which works great!!
    (Don’t know of the gains )

      Looks like quite an innovative solution to go onto the stock derailleur

    I don't have this kind of pulley so I agree, it is just a Placebo effect. Money grab marketing tactic....I'll put my money (for upgrades) for something else.

    Hi, really like your videos and have one very important question.
    Your saddle bag, I really like how it fits tight to the saddle. Can you cure my jealousy and tell me what brand and model it is?
    Regards from Sweden

    • @cyclingunboxed
      @cyclingunboxed  Před 10 dny +1

      Thank for watching! I appreciate it.
      This one is from Silca (Silca Mattone). It’s a really good size to fit everything I need and stays dry inside.
      If you want something slimmer I also use the Lumiere.co saddle bag on other bikes. I prefer the ratchet design (very similar to silca), comes in more colours and cheaper.
      I hope that helps!

      Thanx, ordered two Lumiere bags for road and gravel👍😀

    Had a CS DA one (was on the bike). Better spent your money on a better upgrade.

    • @cyclingunboxed
      @cyclingunboxed  Před 14 dny

      Please could you fill me in as to why you didn’t like it?
      So far no issues on this one with about 1000km on it

    • @simonwarmer8777

      @@cyclingunboxed I didn’t mention I didn’t like it, just felt no difference. If that is possible at all. With for instance tyres, wheels etc. you can sense a difference. Just my opinion.

    • @cyclingunboxed
      @cyclingunboxed  Před 14 dny +1

      I came to the same conclusion. I think with a (properly) clean chain or a waxed chain there is soo little gain that it would be immeasurable.
      I do personally like the way the look. They add some character to the bike but it’s not for everyone

    Expensive price. Cheap look.
