« on: April 04, 2024, 11:06:52 AM »
Hi,

I'm looking for a good hip pack for MTB from Aliexpress. Any recommendations are welcome.

Thanks

How much storage do you need? Is there a big brand example of you're looking for?

Mine (well one of the two, the other I am still repairing it after a Car made it fly a few meters) in road mode

Nice. Where did you get it painted? Flyxii only offered matte or glossy black.

I've ridden and raced mine foer got about 1,500 miles. Definitely recommend if budget is the primary concern.
Toe overlap is an issue at low speeds with my 175mm cranks.
I'm running 45c tires and its great for my local terrain. My only grips is some flex in the rear when I'm standing on the pedals. If I'm really putting down power the brakes do rub ever so slightly.

EDIT:
Holy cow, I just saw the price with the sale!!!
Its like $350 shipped to my door.

Ltwoo eGR coming out to about $380 shipped after coupon from ltwoo official store.

Actually pretty tempted right now.

22
Ordered eGR on 3/11 and the came on 3/19,  didn't pay for air shipping but they got here to Texas in a week.  Pretty nice set up again.  I am disappointed that they don't ship it with mineral oil bottle, olives and barbs, or seatpost battery plug, but overall happy to this point.  Waiting on cassette and chain to install.

What store did you get it from? What was the final price?

23
My go to for bombproof yet decent ride quality tires is Vittoria Rubinos. Most people will have a brand preference.

24
Could it be done? Yes.
Is it saving you so much that its worth the effort? Probably not.

Where do you buy your ltwoo parts? Find them very unresponsive on Ali.
They don't even answer basic questions :s

I bought my GR9 roup from 80 designer store. They helped me with a few things after purchase and installation. Usually respond within 24 hours given the time difference.

I've ordered the e-gr groupset but now I'm a bit confused. The graphic on the AliExpress listing (official ltwoo) says max 50t. Trace velo seems to be running a 50t. All the official website comms and the user manual says max 46t.

Which is true? I need the 50t capacity.

They most likely say 46t to play it safe with tolerances. Even the big brands are known to be conservative on their max capacity numbers. It may not work in all situations with a 50t, so they say 46 max.

Short review of the updated ERX version from ChinaCycling.

Wish I could get those updated calipers for my GR9 groupset.
