raisinberry777 replied to OzBrogains on Trek Checkpoint ALR 5 Gravel Bicycle $1999 (Was $3499) C&C Only @ Trek
This is the way - Light Bicycle are great, and I've also had wheels from FarSports and XMCarbonSpeed that have been excellent too.

Still a good choice - excellent bikes either way. Grizl or Grail?

That's been my experience with buying bicycle parts from factories in China - any of the decent suppliers will take PayPal.

If you're buying YBN chains from AliExpress, how can you tell if they're fake?

The Lenovo LOQ AMD with a 4050 ends up being around $1150 after cashback - that's a decent option.

Yep - after going for the 3415W a few months ago I wish I'd waited for this instead.

Same experience for me with TravelKon - worked straight away from landing, really simple setup. Good speeds, plenty of 5G coverage.

The question is more whether you want an ultrawide or not, and then consider the panel type.

It's good for Hobart - due to the extra leg most flights out of Hobart end up costing a reasonable amount extra.
