C-Bear BB86/BB92 Ceramic Bottom Bracket PF41–AC for All Conditions

C-Bear BB86/BB92 Ceramic Bottom Bracket PF41–AC for All Conditions

In this article I will look at the C-Bear BB86/BB92 Ceramic Bottom Bracket PF41-AC for all conditions. It is a press fit BB86/BB92 bottom bracket for Shimano GRX 820 Hollowtech II cranks on a Canyon Grizl CF SL8 1by gravel bike. Unfortunately the default Token Ninja BB4124PS bottom bracket started making funny noises.

Finally I will compare this PF41-AC all condition C-Bear Ceramic Bottom Bracket with the C-Bear Ceramic Bottom Bracket for BB86/BB92 PF41 with R (road) ceramic bearings, in the Canyon Ultimate CF SLX.

Syncros K-Edge Top Cap Computer Mount for Hixon IC, XR and FL-stems

In this article I will share my ideas about the Syncros K-Edge Top Cap Computer Mount that I’ve installed on the Scott Scale 925 mountain bike, on the Syncros FL-stem that’s on the bike. For me this is a solid option on a mountain bike, where I prefer the Garmin Edge 840 on the stem rather than in-front of the stem like on a road bike.

Muc-Off Tubeless Rim Tape on A-Symmetrical DT Swiss RR411 Road Rim

In this article I will share the use of Muc-Off Tubeless Rim Tape on the a-symmetrical DT Swiss RR411 rim of the FFWD F2A rear wheel that is build around DT Swiss 240s hubs. I’ve purchased the FFWD F2A wheels for a bargain price point. Velox Cotton Textile rim tape and the Schwalbe High Pressure rim tape didn’t do the trick.

Shimano Deore XT PD-M8100 SPD pedals

In this article I will review the Shimano Deore XT PD-M8100 SPD pedals, which are the default for mountain bike and gravel pedals. The new limited edition Shimano GRX SPD M8100-UG pedals are basically the same Deore XT M8100 SPD pedals.

I also have two pairs of Shimano XTR PD-M9100 SPD pedals (which we discounted) that are a bit lighter for the top end group and used by Pete Stetina on his Canyon Grail gravel bike.

Alugear Aero Boost Chainring for Shimano Direct Mount

In this article I will review the Alugear Aero Boost Chainring for Shimano Direct Mount, which is one of the very few aero chainrings for a mountain bike. I’m riding a Rotor no-Q Aero chainring on my Canyon Ultimate CF SLX 8 and a Wolf Tooth Aero Chainring for Shimano GRX 820 on the Canyon CF SL 8 gravel bike.

Works Components GEO Chainring for Shimano Direct Mount

by
Works Components GEO Chainring for Shimano Direct Mount

In this article I will chare my thoughts on the Works Components Geo Chainring for Shimano Direct Mount. Beautifully designed “honey-comb-like” structure, that looks awesome on a Shimano Deore XT M8100 Hollowtech II crankset. The Shimano TL-FC41 Tool can be used to install this Direct Mount Chainring.
