I’m building a new bike, and I have found the Aliexpress world. These were recommended to me, but it seems to good to be true. There also appears to be the same hub for $45 vs $13. What’s your experience with Aliexpress? Anyone buy carbon 650b rims?

I know people who have made good experience with AliExpress hubs, probably not these exact ones. Might be that the bearings last a bit shorter but when they fail you should be able to replace them with high quality ones I recall @Chris saying he has some china carbon wheels but don’t remember the details ---

my first polo wheelset was from ali, it was great except the freehub would skip occasionally. enough that i eventually found a used set of hope hub’d wheels on ebay to replace them I still use the front hub on my partner’s bike, it’s a sealed bearing ta hub that you can get qr caps for so it’s great, but the rear hub is basically garbage due to the free hub issue. ---

I’ve had good experience with cranksets by Goldix and Smllow. They use steel 24mm spindle for shimano BB and Sram 3-bolt chainrings. I would avoid the aesthetic dupes- anything drillium, 5dev, that dimpley one. > **[Single Speed Kinderkurbelgarnitur für MTB XC / TR / AM 105/125/145 / 165 mm...](https://de.aliexpress.com/item/1005007240676319.html?srcSns=sns_Copy&spreadType=socialShare&bizType=ProductDetail&social_params=21825231841&aff_fcid=e617f1542db144fe930c1af383c9fd45-1745013445130-00243-_mt0s3RV&tt=MG&aff_fsk=_mt0s3RV&aff_platform=default&sk=_mt0s3RV&aff_trace_key=e617f1542db144fe930c1af383c9fd45-1745013445130-00243-_mt0s3RV&shareId=21825231841&businessType=ProductDetail&platform=AE&terminal_id=68141617c58948828df6fb024e9810cc&afSmartRedirect=y&gatewayAdapt=glo2deu)** > > Smarter Shopping, Better Living!

This hub doesn’t look bad Probably it’s a super cheap good rear hub for polo! ---

I think I’m going all in on Ali Express hubs and cranks. I’m going to stick with “real” parts for the stem, bar, rims, spokes, and seat post. Right now, my big concern is shearing off the rotor on a front hub again.

We broke 2 AliExpress cranks @ Milano bike polo, I would suggest you not to buy those . Shimano deore are stupidly cheap and I believe the cues one are also . ---

I also broke a crank just by jousting. Very happy with a Carbon handelbar from Ali, Even If it felt weird in the beginning. ---

It‘s been the alu crank with a Alu axel. It broke Like 5cm to the peadels threat.

Me and another guy from Wrocław (Kacper) both use those hubs currently - they are pretty good, and excellent for the price. Guaranteed to annoy the hell out of pedestrians when commuting, too.
