I’ve ordered a bunch this year. Some stuff I’ve gotten that I like:

  • Carbon bottle cages
  • Top tube bags
  • Hand pumps. I ordered 2, one of them worked… but still significantly cheaper than a brand-name one. Also got a handheld pressure gauge for checking the pressure after pumping on the road
  • Glasses—Maybe dangerous in a crash.

Some stuff I’m waiting on:

  • Cycling computer (iGPSport BSC200). Wanted super basic functionality and am expecting it to be crap. Just a bit concerned with the data handling in terms of privacy.
  • Velocity, cadence, HR sensors. WAY cheaper than from Garmin/Wahoo, we’ll see if they work well.

What are your favorites? Or just cheap accessories in general?

    Glasses from Kapvoe (shit quality and risky in a crash)

    OG-Evkin seat post (quality is good, but the way the seat attaches is prone to seize and difficult to adjust)
