Not bike related, but buying some AliExpress hanger alignment tool and came across this. A Chinese copy of my Gerber knife. $150 vs $8.
There are pretty obvious differences, but it feels ok, weighted about the same and the finish on the handle is identical. The blade finish is heaps different, but the original one is already wearing with just test use chopping small branches.
Will report back, can't test the hanger tool because turns out it wasn't my derailleur that was bent!

The Ali SRAM centreline fakes are a great choice for 6 bolt.
I'd rather have Centre Lock these days but a really nice 6-bolt rotor is the Magura MDR-P, probably the best I've tried yet.

I know it's just a few washers (which I don't have) but it's a pain in the arse that they don't do Ali 200mm rotors!

Oh yes the e13 cassette is a crazy piece of design .
It may or may not easily fit over the XD or XDR driver,then there is a pinch bolt on the alloy bit then 3 mad locking splines , I had to file mine to get them on which requires lots of grease and 2 chain whips.
I hope the 9 tooth gear is worth it ?

CNC Cycling Accessories Hydraulic Brake Hose 5mm*2M MTB Brake Hosing Oil Tube Pipe For Shimano BH59 BH90 Bicycle Brake Hose Bike - AliExpress 18

I purchased one of these brake hoses as a spare, and today I decided it was time to use it as my current rear brake was was already unnerving short and I have to cut it again to remove it from the frame.
I fitted the new line to the caliper and lever, and went to bleed it only to find I couldn't push any fluid into the caliper. After double checking everything, I pulled the line off and tried to force some air down it, and it's definitely blocked. It looks like the fitting for the caliper hasn't been machined properly and is still sealed where the hose is supposed to allow oil through.
