Quality

Quality is without doubt one of the most important factors that we consider when buying bikes, parts, accessories or clothing. As you’d imagine it’s especially important when buying Derailleurs. Let’s take at a look at the sort of things you can look at when trying to ascertain the quality of CeramicSpeed OSPW System R9100-R8000.

The first thing is material. Looking at what CeramicSpeed OSPW System R9100-R8000 is made of will give you a really good idea of the quality overall. Take a look at the specs above and you should be able to see the material. It’s then up to you to decide if it meets your expectation.

Similarly you’ll also want to spend some time looking at the features too. Again the table above, listing the features will give you a really good overview. However you should think about the sort of features that you’d expect when buying new Derailleurs. It’s worth writing a list of the “must-have” features so that you don’t end up compromising and missing some important features, or alternatively end up buying an unnecessarily high specced product.

There’s also a lot of merit in checking out the brand of the product and looking at the various brands that are selling Derailleurs. Brands like CeramicSpeed are of courses extremely well respected in the cycling community so you know you’re getting a fantastic product with them. But if you’re undecided on your product you should write up a list of brands that you’d be happy to buy. It’s a great way of filtering and narrowing down the number of products when you’re searching.

Next up you’ll want to think about the price and use that as a guide to set your expectations of the quality. If you’re buying the cheapest of the options in the Derailleurs category you should probably expect it to not be of as good quality as the most expensive. It sounds obvious of course. But this is where you can get a bit clever and use your combination of features, specs, materials and other factors to work together to get a really good quality product at the best price. We often draw up a list of “must-haves” and use these as filters when shopping online so that you’re only seeing products that meet your criteria. You can then sort by Price>Low to get the best deals.


Comparing Prices

Price, as you would imagine, is the most popular reason for someone buying one product over another. It is the single most important factor in choosing the majority of products we buy. The same goes for Derailleurs.

It’s at this stage of the buying process, when you’re looking at different options, that you should set a budget. Do some research to understand how much roughly you can expect to pay for the sort of level of product that you’re looking for. Then match that to your own personal circumstance and how much you can afford to spend. This will really help you in narrowing down the right product for you.

CeramicSpeed OSPW System R9100-R8000 Reviews

Reading reviews is an amazing way of getting a good feel for a product without actually being able to try it or see it first.

There are two different types of reviews, and we also recommend reading both.

1. Expert reviews – In the cycle industry there are loads of really reliable trusted resources for expert reviews. For example if you’re looking to buy a new bike, BikeRadar Bike Reviews are great.

2. Customer reviews – these are probably your best resource for information. There’s no finances or influence involved, they’re purely just honest reviews from customers that have bought and used the product. The reason we love customer reviews so much is because no matter if their view is good or bad, there’s a very good chance that it will be honest and unbiased.

Our best advice is to head over to Chain Reaction Cycles and read the CeramicSpeed OSPW System R9100-R8000 reviews there.

  • Description: CeramicSpeed OSPW System – Shimano 9100 + 8000This CeramicSpeed Oversized Pulley Wheel System is developed for performance optimisation, and the watt savings start at 2.4 watts. The cage is made from carbon fibre and reinforced PA while the pulley wheels are made from aluminium and mounted with high-quality CeramicSpeed bearings. Specifically designed for Shimano 9100/91500, and suited to both training and racing, this Oversized Pulley Wheel system will perform better for longer, lasting three to five times longer than standard pulleys.Shimano Specific Pulley WheelsBecause of the design of the 9100 derailleur, the R&D team at CeramicSpeed tested and concluded that the best performing combination of oversized pulleys for the Shimano 9100 series is a 13-tooth upper and 19-tooth lower pulley. The design of this Shimano-specific OSPW System is very strong and stiff to ensure a high durability factor. In-house tests show that the higher the tooth count, the longer pulley wheel lasts.Optimum PerformanceThis revolutionary OSPW System is developed, produced and assembled by hand in Denmark. Designed to be a plug-and-play fit, it’s the result of an in-depth development process and has been finely tuned to provide optimal performance. Created to answer the need for less friction (as much as 60%), increased speed and a more efficient drivetrain, the OSPW System gives back what other drivetrains take: watts.Features:Material: Cage: Carbon, Polyamide; Bearing: Polyamide, Steel, Ceramic; Castors: Aluminium Bearings: Ceramic type 607 Pulley Teeth: top 13T, bottom 19TSpeed: 11-SpeedCapacity: 32TSpecifically designed for Shimano Dura-ace 9100/9150Use: Road, Triathlon, Ranndoneur Weight: 55gMaintenanceIt’s important that you properly lubricate your bearings in order to ensure optimal performance and maximum longevity. Add oil to the outside of the bearing seal, so that oil can penetrate the bearing.
