Re: Groupset News Well...looks like I have to reconfigure the gravel build I've been budgeting for. These are exciting developments. Hoping that clutch is an actual clutch.

Re: Groupset News Pretty nice...

Re: Groupset News Article highlights the best I could understand.  There is a lot covered with tons of pictures I suggest reading and correcting anything I posted.

He tested the aluminum 2x12

weighed the shifters and brakes
305g per shifter and 160/178g brakes

Brakes need improvement. Long shifter pull for brake engagement. I think he said hoses aren't as good as sram/shimano. Needs adapters to mount brakes even if using 140mm. Larger gap between pads so long lever pull needed. Needs more and/or harder finger pull than shimano. They plan to improve the hydraulic flow.

Shifting not as crisp as electronic. Think he was saying shift teeth ramps need improvement for better shifting on the cassette.

Shifters look shorter and narrower than 7020 but are much taller. He explains how ltwoo shifters work while being smaller than shimano.

The gravel derailleur needs better rebound but chain retention was good. The gravel kit is still in testing.

There will be limited amount of groupsets available which dealers will get first.

He believes there are improvements/changes they will be making.

Re: Groupset News Nice! Just watched it. He did mention some kind of tensioner on the gravel rd. Not sure if its an actual clutch or a tensioner similar to Sensah. Price sounds pretty fantastic. I'll definitely be holding off on a gravel build until this gets on Ali...after the first wave of kinks are worked out.

Re: Groupset News Another pre-production WheelTop EDS review.  TLDR - seems pretty impressed with hardware, but thinks documentation and app need serious work.

Re: Magene L508 Radar bike light
damn that is quick, i also live in an urban area and the thought of having to charge it every ride doesn't sound very pleasant.

Well... now after a ride, I charge the karoo, a whoop, sometimes a SRAM battery, a red light, a front flashing light, a Lupine battery if MTB, and the radar. ???
Hopefully I do not forget to charge my phone, and... my car!
And I'm glad I don't ride an e-bike... yet  ;D
