I've ordered a bunch this year. Some stuff I've gotten that I like:

Carbon bottle cages
Top tube bags
Hand pumps. I ordered 2, one of them worked.. but still significantly cheaper than a brand-name one. Also got a handheld pressure gauge for checking the pressure after pumping on the road
Glasses—Maybe dangerous in a crash.

Some stuff I'm waiting on:

Cycling computer (iGPSport BSC200). Wanted super basic functionality and am expecting it to be crap. Just a bit concerned with the data handling in terms of privacy.
Velocity, cadence, HR sensors. WAY cheaper than from Garmin/Wahoo, we'll see if they work well.

What are your favorites? Or just cheap accessories in general?

Always been intrigued by this because apparently stickerbombing reduces chance of theft. But I can't imagine doing that to my bike, I love the clean aesthetic.
