You have to pick your sellers carefully, but there are a few legitimate Shimano parts sellers on AliExpress. Main fakes to be careful of…

Interesting - ad specifies Maxxis, Panaracer, Ultradynamico, Simworks and Teravail.

Didn't seem to work on any of the Pirelli road or gravel tyres that I tried.

They tout much upgraded health sensors pretty much every year and - to date - it still ranks poorly. For example, see this YouTube tester…

You'll definitely need XS. I'm an XS in most shirts and would say the XS Macpac Halo is fairly roomy (plenty of room for layers underneath).

Yes, but the form factor/placement of a watch is not all that useful for cycling. If you only want to have post-ride data for analysis,…

I'm in pretty much the same boat. I'm interested, but I'm not willing to be a test dummy or pay a premium over a tried and proven MacBook…

For the same price you could probably pick up a second hand Garmin Edge 530 or Wahoo Elemnt Bolt - these devices have navigation and will…

There's a mix. Avoid chains and pedals from unknown sellers - lots of fakes. Derailleurs usually fine - haven't seen a fake Shimano…

These are great - but intended as a race day shoe / high tempo training shoe. Not necessarily made for longevity. I'd recommend getting…

Nice! I just bought myself some Deviate Nitro Elites, been on the hunt for some nice plated trainers now that I've started to become used…

Effectively a tax donation to a team that is controlled by the AFL, an organisation that is already flush with cash. Sure seems like a…

Very cheap for Hyperion Max - I've put 900km on a pair and loved them.

256GB titanium blue and same story (but ordered on 19th) - join the club!

Highly rated budget choice: [Motorola G54](https://www.ozbargain.com.au/product/motorola-moto-g54)

These deals on [crystal…

When I made mine on the trade-in app it was for in-store only, so I did it through the checkout process in the Shop app instead and it…

I totally agree - I've been getting it to code some basic tasks I would regularly do using Powershell - the benefits for someone who has no…

The AMD Acer Swift Go has to be the best option under $1k for a thin and light laptop with some basic gaming capabilities.
11/01/2024 - 14:19
This is a very good option if Thunderbolt isn't required:…
10/01/2024 - 12:36
The price is back down to $1197 now.

It's a response to SpainKing. I agree that negs should require accountability. I also agree that positive votes should not require it. I'm…

Agree - as a long time user here I appreciate that negs require comments, and if anything, it encourages me to read them to see what the…

Same price available here: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/354911138761

Acer Swift Go? Wait for a price like this again: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/816906
20/12/2023 - 13:36
Yes and no. The current Claris groupset (R2000, released in 2017) has a similar design to Shimano's first-generation 11-speed products, but…
18/12/2023 - 12:33
I like it, but I came from a bike with a very similar geometry (Focus Izalco Max) and have pretty much always had bikes with a similar…

I'm very happy with my Scultura 6000 (105 Di2) - picked one up for $2750 from 99 Bikes a few months ago in combination with this deal:…
