>>1487947>PanaracerNice tyres, overpriced though. But I think made in Japan so that's understandable.
>Nitto Same, made in Japan in a relatively small factory, very good quality though and good brand to support given it's history.
>Kool-stopGreat products, at least the rim brake pads I tried were.
>Carradice /fa/ meme gear I agree
>Tubus Nah, fuck off. I did a USA > Argentina tour. Started with a Axium rack and switched in Mexico to a Tubus from some autralian guy I met and the different was insane in stiffness and bike handling. Gives you a real piece of mind when going on rough roads with lots of gear which is great. I fully support the price, also made in Germany/Austria or something?
>Cane CreekNah, great bombproof headset option but way cheap than Chris King.
>Schmidt I think it's an overkill, but it's a very high quality product, and I would love to have one, just not gonna buy one myself.
>Selle Italia Not a fan either, very short life span for the saddles I tried.
>Dia-CompeI don't like their aesthetic for some reason.
>Swift?
