Winspace T1600 – First Look and Mechanical Teardown

Byadmin

The Winspace T1600 is a carbon aero frameset that offers serious engineering quality at a price that makes most Western brands look absurd. This review takes a detailed look at the frame from an actual engineering standpoint, not the usual vague “ride feel” commentary from influencers and shop mechanics. With clean internal routing, tight manufacturing tolerances, and consistent carbon layup, the T1600 delivers performance without the marketing fluff. I have been riding the frame extensively with no issues to report so far. Everything fits, everything works, and nothing creaks. It is designed by people who understand structural mechanics, not branding. Wind tunnel test results will be covered in the next video. If you are tired of being sold £4,000 frames based on Tour de France photos and buzzwords, the T1600 might be the reality check you need. Especially if you’re still taking advice from someone trying to crowdfund a bike shop refit.

The $1100 AeroCoach Wheel Hub: Crap Engineering, only surpassed by the Diabolical Customer Service

Byadmin

The £900 AeroCoach Aeox wheel hub promised cutting-edge performance but delivered a masterclass in engineering failure. With garbage machining, grooves that weaken rather than strengthen, and a design doomed by radial lacing, it’s less a cycling component and more a £900 liability. Add in AeroCoach’s radio-silence customer service, and you’ve got a product that fails on every level. Want to see the disaster for yourself? Watch it implode literally, in this video.

Zero Friction Cycling, Fake Engineering

The Murky World of ZFC Zero Friction Cycling: Botched Testing, Frigged Results

Byadmin

Zero Friction Cycling, run by former policeman Adam Kerin, presents itself as a trusted source for friction-reducing products, but behind the scenes, a lack of engineering knowledge and unverified testing methods raise red flags. Despite requesting sensitive industry data without doing foundational research, Kerin’s approach appears more focused on marketing high-margin products than adhering to rigorous engineering standards. His testing setup is flawed, and the data he presents, particularly in support of ceramic bearings and chain lubricants, lacks scientific backing. Is this the work of an expert or just another slick sales pitch?
