It sheared the hanger and mangled the derailleur into the wheel.
Now I have to buy a new derailleur and chain and Di2 wire.
Think the aluminium grade is of low quality and is too soft compared to a name brand
EDIT: the good derailleur hanger is the redshift one. See my later posts

Do you have any picture? The one i got seems to be the reinforced version with the bar in the middle
"Frames and gear" and "mixed" from AliExpress also seem to come from same factory. Frames and gear "European China made" hanger seems to have a bit more milling than the AliExpress "mixed" hanger, that makes it under a gram lighter.
I bought the "frames and gear" hanger to replace my sigeyi hanger, but it doesn't look much better, sigeyi still on my canyon disc bike. Around 30k km still solid.

I had both. Only the redshift one snapped on my Aethos. I was trying to adjust the hanger ever so slightly to straighten it out and snapped. I’m not certain it is milled CNC as the material didn’t appear solid throughout. I did have a back up since they were pretty inexpensive and since I’m on my spare hanger, I ended paying more and bought the Silca 3D printed one as the new spare._scott_ wrote:The one I bought from Mixed is exactly like the Redshift one you posted belowbmrk wrote: ↑Sun Mar 03, 2024 3:01 pmI’ve been using mine on a Tcr 2021 for more than a year and it has been rock solid._scott_ wrote:Hi, does yours specified 7075-T6?

Interview with Farsports founder. Very impressive lady; just wish the interviewer had gotten more out of the interview.

I got just about nothing from that interview. My Farsports wheels though have been awesome.

The video before with the tour of the factory is very impressive.

This arrived yesterday and unfortunately it doesn't fit correctly with my Uno stem. I ordered the mount for the Giant Contact SL as recommended earlier, but the bolt spacing doesn't match up. The Uno is 24mm and the mount I got was 30mm. After looking again in taobao, they actually make one which is specific for the Kalloy Uno so I'll need to order that one. Ordering fail on my part. Posting here so that people don't make the same mistake.iamraymond wrote: ↑Wed Feb 28, 2024 11:38 pmDepending on your stem you might be able to find one made by ccache.

I sort of doubt they make they're own products, but I have no idea who their supplier is.
By the way here are some pictures sent by Pandabuy who are facilitating my order. I haven't received the part yet so I cannot show it installed.
Otherwise, the mount looks to be well made and solid aluminum construction. Even the removable light/go-pro mount is made of alloy.

Are there any known good AXS-compatible casettes and chains?
I'm very happy with the ZRace 10-33. I will stick to SRAM chains though.inertianinja wrote: ↑Sat Mar 09, 2024 1:29 amAre there any known good AXS-compatible casettes and chains?

Why go the AliExpress route for bar tape? You can buy Fizik bar:tape Superlight Tacky Touch for 7.7 euros on r2-bike right now.
Including shipping the Aliexpress tape cost €3 while the Fizik tape cost €15. Eventhough the amount is not huge I am somewhat cheap and enjoy saving where I can without sacrificing too much quality.TheBelgian wrote: ↑Wed Apr 17, 2024 10:25 pmWhy go the AliExpress route for bar tape?
