Hello dear friends, have a nice day! As the carbon wheelsets market continues to evolve, our factory is ready to start building a new batch of carbon wheelset molds. What is your Dream carbon wheelset? Please give your suggestions generously, including carbon wheelset type, inner and outer width, weight requirements, spokes and hubs, etc. Effective and practical suggestions will be adopted and surprise gifts will be given to you! Please actively participate! Thank you very much for your suggestions!

Integration of the dual ratchet system in lower end wheelsets would be lovely.  :)

Had a hard gravel race here 150k and had a little play in the headset again after riding. Maybe I'll need to replace those bearings to, can get it fine on the stand and soft roads. But hard races makes play return :s

The reason i went for ltwoo was because of a crash where i had to replace an ultegra 8070 shifter. Hard to find them and prices at 300€ retail for just a shifter..
These prices are ridiculous.

Okay, so 250123 batches seem to be problematic. 250124 and 250140 could be newer batch runs. Maybe all the deep sales are for the older 250123 batches? What seller did you buy yours from?

80 Designer store here on Ali.

Contacted 80's designer again to request for a replacement and awaiting their response.  Meanwhile I'll try to dissect the lever and see what's wrong if possible.

Atleast this looks like a seller that's handling issues. :s

My set that I received a month ago is 250140. Didn't receive my electrical tape yet and did a few pouring rain rides already.
Fingers crossed.

Lots of people using er9/erx on a different thread here, it's maybe the busiest thread in the last several weeks. 2 out of my 5 er9 died a few days ago for no reason, and dealing with getting replacements is a slow burn nightmare, so right now, i wouldn't recommend ltwoo electronic. i like the hydraulic brakes and havent tried their mechanical stuff.
I dont think there's been clear communication around what's new / different since the launch of the erx. even the water ingress point wasn't addressed. basically it is evident that we're beta testing the stuff, but it's labeled a retail product. So nobody knows what changes they re making in the background on a running basis, or it they batch the changes into new versions.

Saw it there, remember you being very positive about the er9 when I ordered mine. The fact that they die without a reason is terrible. What reseller did you use?
Find the official store on ali bad in communicating. 80 designer store was a bit more expensive but atleast some kind of service there

Mine is working fine so far, damn I really hope that it just doesn't die in the middle of a race here. But if it happens oh well bad luck than lol

I'm selling an eGR group in Belgium. Don't wonna take the risk on the gravel since I'm mostly far from home when riding gravel.
Asking the price i've paid for it, if it doesn't sell I'll try it anyway.

Do you guys think this wheelset is worth the 50% premium over the Elitewheels ENT wheelset? Considering an upgrade to the Bontrager Paradigm Comp 25 TLR wheels on my Trek Domane.

I'm specifically comparing the ~$430 Elitewheels ENT Gravel 45mm depth to the ~$640 Elitewheels Edge Gravel 45mm depth (both with Shimano, centerlock, steel bearing).

Is there any sound comparison available? I've heard some Elitewheels can be unbearably loud.

Also, any thoughts on the ceramic bearing upgrade?

There is a weight difference of 300gr. Comes with a better hub (ratchet) and pillar wing spokes. Also they use the lighter carbon for the rims. Both good wheels tried them both.
Both are loud but I don't mind that.

Yep, at least I'll have an extra RD for spare parts.

Anyway, I swopped out the faulty RD with my other newer ER9 RD just to confirm definitively that it is the RD drawing down the batt and not any other component or the batts themselves.  The new RD with original FD, batts and shifters remained at 88% for 24hrs.  But the faulty RD with brand new and uninstalled FD, batts and shifters (all paired and connected together) dropped from 94% to 84% in 24hrs just sitting on my desk.

80 designer store really has good service, great solution from them

Group installed here, raced with it. Trained with it and I have to say wow very impressed with what I got for the money. Shifts better than my old dura ace 11v di2.
Running 12s with a cheaper 11-28 cassette (219gr).

It's all about rolling ressistance for me. If they test them and they are fast I will try them. Or atleast close to fast ..
Running with gp5000s for that reason, the only non chinese part aswell here. Even on gravel it's thundero or g-one rs.
Fast and aero is laif :P
