This is a really light build. Which version of the frame did you get?

By the way, they are stopping the sell of this model.

Just pulled the trigger on this one

My RD started to respond slowly as well. Very likely due to moisture in the plug. I disconnected it, cleaned it, let it dry and applied some silicone grease to seal the plug from the elements. Did a 90 minute long ride today. Everything is back to normal. The RD shifts fine. I think the RD plug is most likely the scapegoat since the plug at the FD socket is facing downward and is probably a lot less likely to collect moisture. I think the plug design could easily be improved to seal better against water.

Can you make a video showing what you did? :)

I am still wondering what is the difference between the 390 and the 396...

21
Any chance for you to share that catalog here?

Here in attached file :-)

Must....resist....the...urge...to...stock up on more spare groupsets for future builds.

I pulled the trigger

I know the answer: it is Workswell WCB-R-326.

I received am email with their catalog, and then have many more bike than displayed.

@neobike- Must have been a special because looking now, ali, its 750 for the ceramic bearing one. They say there is a special in a day or so, where there will be about a 60.00 discount

During 11.11 or black Friday sales, the Edge were 565 USD with shipping, then you had 100 USD Ali discount, and 30 USD from Ali coins, total was 441 USD. I bought them so I know the price xD

I am just disappointed that it is cheaper to buy from Elitewheels on Ali with their running discount.

I had the Elitwheels Edge, plus shipping for 441 USD…

Yes, Kitty is great, bought two frames with her, one of them had paint damage and she is extra supportive.

If Elves was giving me a free frame, I'd LARP the $hit out of it on this forum and make all you suckers buy one! Lol

I find the blow back on that frame amusing. I mean, this is a forum for cheap carbon frames and components. If one was truly serious about their cycling, why not buy a name brand frameset and/or bike build? If you can't afford one, well go back to school and get a better paying career! Haha

As a counter argument, I just build bike and rides them as a hobby, and I will definitely buy the new BMC Teammachine R when the frameset becomes affordable (lower grade carbon and sale season).  However, I can't fight against my DNA, and if I find a cheap and good stuff, I will buy it xD. This is why I have been buying Lightcarbon and Yishun frames

Or the 18PT81 coupon xD I just bought the edge for 442 dollars.

What was the issue?

By the way, ER9 should be around 360$ for 11.11 xD

I bought it, but did not find the time to mount it.
