Great segment. You guys should do more of these. A lot of us can't do $3k-6K bikes and $80 pedels/bars/stems. I like to call it being "budget minded" (also known as "cheap") when looking for expensive part alternatives. 🤣
Totally agree. There are a lot of crap products out there with high review ratings (either faked, or because the older version of the product was great, but not anymore). Would be nice to get actual tested reviews that showcase budget items which actually work well. For example, I bought similar glasses as Blake, just not so, ahem "stylish", with the brande Rock Bros and they've been great! I don't need $120 glasses that will likely get lost/scratched/eaten, but for $30 I can handle that :)
@@uhntss Ive got a few things from Rock Bros, seat packs, top tube packs, all have worked great in the long and short run. 12.00 for top tube pack, instead of 50.00 for an ever so trendy one. Good tip on the glasses, I might try some. I tend to destroy expensive glasses so ...................
I got a pair of Rock Bro aluminum flats that I’m happy with. I just wish they had replaceable studs. But all in all they were cheap enough to just replace if needed.
I have two pair of those glasses. The shown ones in black (photochromic) and half framed ones with ventilation holes. Both work fine and fit perfect on my nose. No uncomfortable pressure points like from other brands. And they block uv rays to 100%...i testet it with a uv lamp...they also darken because of uv light, not because of "sunlight". Only con, not an issue, is the fact you're always looking through two glasses when using the myopic frame with correction lenses. That's kind of...you need to get used to. From my sight of view -> i recommend them.
Caution: cheap sunglasses aren't always a bargain. When your eyes are shaded, the pupils will open wider. If you're in bright sunlight and the sunglasses aren't specifically made to block ultraviolet light, your wide-open pupils can bring harmful rays to your retinas. Since this can cause permanent damage to your vision, make sure the sunglasses you buy are made to block UV rays - and that you trust the vendor who tells you so.
@@chrishowell5718 you'd be paying a lot more for a factory in China to produce specific UV transparent photchromic than it would cost to just sell a white label product. Polycarbonate glasses are a dime a dozen, there's no extra profit in specifically engineering them to be worse.
I bought the Granite Stash RT. The RT stands for Ratchet. It has a mini Ratchet and all the bits you need to work on your bike trail side. It's light enough. Easy to install. Just knock out the star nut in your fork steer tube and replace with the Granite stash rt. It is threadless and acts as the compression bolt for your head set. Better quality then I thought it would be. Quite impressed over all. Good on board storage.
I also have the granite on my trail bike and i love it. One less tool to forget to bring bcoz its always on the bike already...and the actual tool bits are pretty good quality...have some mates that have bought them as well after they saw it on my bike
I had the original granite stash tool which was a bit naff as the tool broke and had little leverage. Got the ratchet now and it is in a different league, better ergonomics, good leverage and is a pleasure to use. A bonus is the tool can be bought separately from the housing if it is damaged or bits lost
One thing that blew me away is that Zoom (I think distributed as ZTTO) have a pair of 4-piston brakes for $80. And they work. I'm not kidding. I actually like them a bit more than the $275 Tektro Orion 4Ps. Modulation good. Pre bled. Check them out.
ZTTO has some time on the market in conparison to other Chinese brands that disappear after a couple of months. They make everything now. Makes sense if they used to be ZOOM.
Just ordered the kapvoe glasses because most glasses aren't suited for ppl that already need glasses, and it just looks magical. Can't wait to try em out
I’ve used Crank Bros cleat/flat pedals for years now. Easy to just catch the pedal below with your toe and flip it if needed. Not an issue, pedals sound good!
I had the same kind of flat/cleat pedals, and I had to switch to full flats because anytime I would remove a foot I'd have to pay attention to flipping the pedal. That tiny distraction was an annoyance, but I almost crashed once on a trail, trying to flip the darn pedal in a turn! Not to mention the times I had to go through a rough session with a pedal upside down, those were sketchy, slippery moments!
I've had those glasses (or a similar cheapo version) for a couple years and I really like them for the PNW. Because i'm in and out of clearcuts and forest so much, having the mostly clear lens is perfect for visibility going back into the shade. They don't darken much, but they darken enough that you don't really need another pair of shades if the ride is mixed sun/shade. I wouldn't wear them on a sunny ride or a road/gravel ride, but for mtb through the trees they're perfect. And they're cheap enough that I don't need to feel bad if I leave them on the roof when i'm driving off, break them against a tree, sit on them, scratch them up, etc.
I recently did a 1x12 conversion to an older trek fuel for under 200 not including tools bought. Ebay and Amazon came to the rescue and I can say this bike feels absolutely mint
I've had bike stuff from Aldi (bottle, pump, bottle cage, lock, lights, glasses, riding tops, gloves, tool set) , Lidl (multitools, seat pouch - didn't get a repair stand but I hear they are excellent) and Poundland (inner tubes, puncture repair kits, simple lock, lights). No issues at all. Still use most of them or keep things like the inner tubes as spares. There's a video idea. Buy from Aldi, Lidl and Poundland.
The pedals with one side spd are good for touring, Funn Mamba are the same. If you are touring and want to wear something more comfortable you always have the flat option. And clip in if you are doing long distance with the riding shoes
yeah I always wish mine came with a weight but in that I could move to bias it towards the side I expect to use most. I've since switched to full on Crank Bros with no platform. I figure that it's more intimidating to somebody trying to steal my bike. I can and have used them with regular shoes for short distances, so a thief could too, but they definitely would not be confident doing it. of course I don't trust to that
I live in Canada and I started winter riding (fat bike) back in 2020 (needed something to do while in lockdown). Since I didn't know if I would actually enjoy winter riding I bought cheap, price wise, clothing. Still wearing these items to this day. ROCKBROS Winter Cycling Jacket - $56.99CA, BALEAF Men's Winter Bike Running Pants (wear for snowshoeing also) - $52.99CA, and BALEAF Men's Bike Shorts Padded - $30.99CA I also rigged a cheap handlebar lamp to my helmet and it works great as a head lamp. Wastou Bike Lights Super Bright Bike Front Light 1200 Lumen - $26.38CA
bought a similar bag for the top frame bar. works a charm and super cheap compared to many other brands. there was some bontragger bag for 80$ which was almost identical to the 32$ one i found from Rockbros.
With all dual pedals, there's a motion / flick you have to perfect to get the clip side back up, but it just becomes a habit tbh, I've got a Shimano set on my gravel / everything bike so I can use the flats when utility riding
I started using a hairdrier to heat up my boots in one of the colder winters, when I used to live in Southport. It got rid of the cold and the humidity and it made going to work in the morning a little less sucky.
Bought photochromic lens glasses in Decathlon for about the same money. Really good and I'm not going to feel sick if I lose them. Just one word of warning some cheap knockoffs will shatter into eye shredding shards if you have a big impact. I like the look of that bar bag.
I was actually using this glasses for year, or little bit more. The darkening of lenses worked, suprisingly, pretty well and I pay for them.. I guess even less then 30 bucks back then. But in the end I was finding them... not really comfortable. But for this price they are quite good.
Excellent video, I have bought a pair of MTB shoes that did the job even though it felt like I was riding with bricks on my feet. I also bought a pair of flat pedals that I still use today. However I am looking for glasses to wear, I don't use safety glasses because I have double vision. The pair of riding glasses you shown that has an attachment for prescription glasses seem like a perfect fit.
Nice video Blake!!! I saw a review on some cheap amazon boot dryers they looked good until the reviewer took it apart and found the wiring was a joke,the wires were just twisted together without marrets twisted on not even black tape either...A definite fire hazard they should never even be pluged in like that!!! Buyer beware!!!
the pedals in the beginning of the video would actually be an amazing thing to own, especially if your a beginner trying clips on your bike but would prefer flat pedals
I actualy use that glasses and they are really fine. Polarised glass really work, I also use yellow glass a lot- in forest or in evening. Really good glasses for that price.
Safety glasses for sure, I bought a Akaso camera for about 1/4 of the cost of a gopro, rock Bros bags, but I went expensive with pedals with mag peds and I live them, you can get some good deals at A to Z
Ive had good success with Amazon for peddles, handlebars, seats, and headstems. You just have to shop smart and know what youre looking for! Especially if youre on a tight budget, or simply want to try out something different before committing to a branded model.
I have that same handlebar bag, except it's the grey and black version, and have been impressed with it. It's great for carrying tools, food, a spare inner tube, my phone, identification and keys. It's better than a saddle bag (which compromises the effectiveness of a dropper post) and negates me carrying these items in my shorts. I use it frequently on my MTB and road bikes. This said, I would steer clear of cheap electronic items from Amazon.
I have a campark xtreme v UHD4k action camera around the same price as that camera with a EIS stabilizing mode. Works great and wide view. Does not come with SD micro card. Buy good ones. An dont leave the battery charging. Not a smart charger. Battery will over charge and swell. Put it on a timer. Found on ebay. 👍
They’re PALS loops if we are being fully pedantic (pouch attachment ladder system), MOLLE is the rucksack which used them originally. These don’t look to be terribly compliant with the PALS standard, but they are useful for generally strapping things to.
I use KleenGuard Nemesis glasses when I ride. I bought them in a PPE and workwear store. They're just normal safety glasses with tinted lenses. Mine are amber colored, which isn't very dark. They work greath, both in the open fields and in the shadows under the forest trees, and the slightly yellowish colour increases the contrast and gives everything a warmer tone. I don't think a pair of $150 Oakleys would make that much of a difference.
Those pedals will be alright until they snap at the spindle. The glasses will probably not protect your eys (testing that would have been nice), and those boot things will destroy your gore/eVent/sympatex/whatever lining. The only thing I would consider here is the bag. As a rule, never buy technical or safety stuff cheap, but knock yourself out for other things.
Hey Blake good video for anyone who doesn't have a local bike shop nearby Amazon has some good stuff for anyone who has to travel cities to get to a bike shop
I got some of the 2022 Oakley copies of the Oakley Pilot, my old lenses from years, many years ago, fit the new glasses. I found em for 40 on ebay. Local shop 180.00
I got these pedals for my home spin bike, my wife clips in with her spin shoes and i ride the flat with my Five Ten flat shoes. No complaints, not sure i'll use them on the trail i'll stick with the One Up Pedals.
I have some kapvoe glasses and they’re great. Especially if you usually only wear the clear lens. I have original Oakley glasses and I can’t tell the difference. Now most of my friends have them too. Ali express for the win😂
my kapvoe ones fog very fast and the oleophobic coating is non existent. water, sweat will sit on the glasses and my oakley never had issues with also the nosepiece digs in to my nose and isnt comfortable.
I have a different version of this. Same idea. Cheap go pro. And although the screen on the camera isn't great it takes great photos and videos. Well worth the 35 dollars for all that came with it. I got same as you plus some.
9:23 man, why is it I bought these last week cause i needed something better for mountain biking lol tbh tho out on the trail they did their job. I like em
I have a cheap action camera almost identical to this. Bought it for spearfishing and it is great for that with the waterproof casing and all. The stills from it are utterly crap. BUT for what it is, I think it really delivers! it has a screen, is waterproof, sound is decent out of the housing and it comes with accessories. Nowhere near the performance of a newer Gopro, but neither is the price.
Dude just get a really good mount and case for your iPhone lol I feel like the tech in that cam far surpasses that ridiculous vid quality I saw in the vid
@@spotlesswindows Yea, almost any place that makes glasses can do it. I went to two places and the second one got it done. I got impact resistant lenses for good measure.
The glasses look like some I brought from Gobi, and in fairness for what they cost can’t complain. Certainly wouldn’t lose any sleep if I stood on them or left them somewhere, unlike some Oakleys say!
Great video guys! I’ve tried to buy the camera some years ago as 3rd camera but is unusable at all! I’ve tried glasses too as 2nd pair of glasses and I think they do their job pretty good maybe because I didn’t shake my head until my neck breaks!
You gotta love those amazon product titles. But nothing beats the variable price listing on eBay. Lately, I'm getting more and more bike ads on Facebook and the comments are proof of the kind of people these bunch of words are targeting.
Well at least you got the apeman no pro camera it one of the better ones I have some no pro knock offs they are super light and some video look old fashion or audio is horrible but the apeman does ok out of all the no pros. When they state the action camera the word action speaks louder then the camera. What I think on it probably better for small vlogs.
I had some shimano hybrid 50/50 pedals.... they were just as crap at always flipping round so that he SPD was on the underside... cant blame the cheap ones exclusively for that fault!! I gave up on the shimano ones pretty quickly and went full SPD!
I use flat/clip pedals on my road bike. It's easy to flip them right sight before clipping in. It's not the pedals fault you don't use that style, how is the quality of the pedal?

thanx for this vid , with crazy bike prices at the min i like cheap n cheerful options that last
cheap glasses are good looking, price is neat but when you don't what will happen to lenses when you fall it's very scary choice
The boot dryer is a massive gamchanegr in winter when you come home with wet shoes, no more stuffing newspapers, actually dry boots in 20 minutes

Yeah and at least Decathlon ones have real and proven certifications, would not trust a random brand for my eyes regardless of the price.
those dual clip and flat pedals are for your trainer at home.. so you can ride either way during your workout

love the low-key mockery of the bike stuff that i can afford :)
430g for both pedals is actually quite a common weight for aluminium flat pedals with CrMo spindles.

This bar bag thing is actually called a "molle" bag. They're meant to be strapped to chest harnesses and backpacks.

Love the video and think you make the best videos on GMBN🎉 awesome humor
I literally have glasses from the same company and a similar camera - I don't like any of them particularly. Both are fine.
Bouvht a truing stand but needs some persuation to align before actual truing your rim and spokes
Those rockbros antislip pedals are dope.
That bag had me at burrito.
I have a pair of those glasses, the inner prescription frame works great. Can't wear contacts and regular glasses fall off too easy.
How do you fit the lenses? Do you have to go to optician and get the some lenses specifically cut for the the size?
@@spotlesswindows Yea, almost any place that makes glasses can do it. I went to two places and the second one got it done. I got impact resistant lenses for good measure.
You probably ought to advise people to check for CE marks when buying from Amazon, particularly items that plug in and generate heat.
So for 'bar bag' read 'hand bag', next it will be high heel riding shoes and mini skirt riding shorts. 🤣
The glasses look like some I brought from Gobi, and in fairness for what they cost can’t complain. Certainly wouldn’t lose any sleep if I stood on them or left them somewhere, unlike some Oakleys say!
Great video guys! I’ve tried to buy the camera some years ago as 3rd camera but is unusable at all! I’ve tried glasses too as 2nd pair of glasses and I think they do their job pretty good maybe because I didn’t shake my head until my neck breaks!
those glasses are sick!
Lol i actually use photochromatic glasses from amazon. Not that colour or style but they do what they should.
You gotta love those amazon product titles. But nothing beats the variable price listing on eBay. Lately, I'm getting more and more bike ads on Facebook and the comments are proof of the kind of people these bunch of words are targeting.
Well at least you got the apeman no pro camera it one of the better ones I have some no pro knock offs they are super light and some video look old fashion or audio is horrible but the apeman does ok out of all the no pros. When they state the action camera the word action speaks louder then the camera. What I think on it probably better for small vlogs.
Glad my Apeman dashcam is actually decent.. They know how to make cameras, but perhaps not action ones !
Great video from Blake..! 💸
Got the kapvoe glasses, they're legit
I had some shimano hybrid 50/50 pedals.... they were just as crap at always flipping round so that he SPD was on the underside... cant blame the cheap ones exclusively for that fault!!
I gave up on the shimano ones pretty quickly and went full SPD!
I have the Apeman A80, it has EIS. It is actually pretty good, better than your results with A77
NEVER buy cheap glasses, the only thing they do is ruin your eyesight. The only thing of those I would buy would be the handlebar bag.
Blake, it was nice if The Macho Man Randy Savage to lend you his glasses! 😂
Great new video hope to see more!!!
You got it! Thanks for the support!
Great video 😃 I do like the bag 😃😃 on and off the bike .
Thanks, Anita! 🙌
It's actually "buy nice or buy twice" ... or "buy once, cry once"... 😎
I kept hearing "baw bag" for the bar bag.
I use these glasses myself and can confirm they are really great
Kapvoe's are super solid.
I use flat/clip pedals on my road bike. It's easy to flip them right sight before clipping in. It's not the pedals fault you don't use that style, how is the quality of the pedal?
