Thanks! I was busy today but will definitely check it out this week.

If it were me, I'd try to isolate the faulty component as a first step. I can't quite make out what you are saying in the video so ignore this if you've covered these steps already.

First, remove your rear wheel and the brake pads to avoid contamination with mineral oil; next, disconnect the brake hose from the caliper. Then try to move some mineral oil through the caliper with your bleed kit. If you can't, you know the brake is faulty.

If the path internal to the caliper is clear, either the hose is blocked (unlikely) or the hydraulic module within your shifter is borked.

well, i think LTWOO tries not to hurt any shimano patents with this? i think paying for flatmount license would have been a good thing, i suppose shimano was not up to this..
We wil see, if ltwoo withstands a closer look of patent lawers

Thanks, I will definitely double-check.
My rides felt normal otherwise but the brake power has quite some leverage through the fork, right?
Did you "feel" anything while riding?
I did not feel anything while riding, but the fork began to "stutter" when braking. I also thought it was the brakes, but it appeared to be the play in the headset. It was a very small amount of play.

Nice wheels and all, but can I ask about the truing stand? Is that an AliExpress model or rather a Western product?

Good luck with your degree!
It's Ali, I have the same. Works great after a little bit of adjusting. You can't rely on it for your wheel to be perfectly centred though.

It has serials - I don't think it's a problem of identifying their own product but rather they've come the decision that the purchasing retailer/channel is who would handle warranty issues.  For my issue with the adjustment screw, the AliExpress seller was happy to deal with it, I just had to get it back to them in China.  I ended up just fixing myself.

Definately will limit acceptance outside of Asia until they can improve servicing globally. Unfortunate.    It will be a small niche of people like the ones in here willing to accept the servicing hassles that will be buying.
Yeah, especially with electronic... When you buy a Chinese mechanical group, a lot of the times you can replace the parts with Shimano or Sram when something is not right... If your Chinese electronic group fails you could be out of a bike for 6 weeks...

Well the tiny bit of play is back after a ~100km this time (a few rides)


Not sure how i can add a 0.5mm C shaped spacer to the headset. Can't it just slip out or the compression will hold it in place?



I think i will go ahead and order the Specialized design mentioned by @fabxyz on ali

This is pretty dumb. How hard is it to assign a serial # to each groupset? Their warranty process is just pure laziness. The EDS TX is already in Shimano 105 Di2 AliEx pricing territory. At least with the 105 Di2, spare parts are plentiful and quality assurance to chance buying from a reseller is much better.

Agreed. Business wise, it's akin to shooting yourself in the foot. It's even remarkably stupid. Unless ofc they actively want the west not to buy their stuff, which might be the case, after all, as China is probably big enough for them to thrive. But then they wouldn't be selling to Aliexpress vendors. So it's probably just stupid.
