Re: chinese carbon saddles
I also have the 7D but after 10 months it is flexing too much on the center People are paying hundred of dollars for added “suspension” on their bikes. You’re getting it for free!!!

Re: Ali express disc brake pads, recommendations
Kingstop - sintered or ceramic pads. Used them on Magura, Shimano, and SRAM calipers with no issues. Such stop. Much wow.

Re: LTWOO ER9 & ERX - Electronic groepsets
Contrary to other bad experiences, my ER9 groupset has been working really well. It took a few rides to iron out the kinks, but right now it's running near perfect. I'd almost be tempted to buy another ER9 set! Though I bought it with really low expectations, with the belief it will fail on me at any given moment. If you want race ready equipment with money spent on R&D, extensive customer support and quality assurance, no one should be buying any components from AliExpress!

Re: LTWOO ER9 & ERX - Electronic groepsets
Thats me and nope no solution yet. Just for saftey reasons that i by mistake shift both exactly at the same time i put my charging cable and a usb-a to ubs-c adapter in my saddlebag, so i can connect the rd to my phone as a charging device and get it working again. you run 2x11 or 12? Yestrerday I was testing and with gear protection off my system go down after only one change from 1 to 2 at front, with gear protection on this situation happend less often. I think this is connected with some adjusment of FD, when shift on front is smooth then is ok, when not system is blocking. I'm in contact with Ltwoo and Store from aliexpress ,but damn, they are silent ;/ Support even not exist Could somone whith 53-36 on front take photo of FD when is at second gear ( now mine is set with sticker 3mm up the tooth) and screen with calibration for FD on 1 and 2 gear (i know that this depends which frame, hanger etc.) //Edit: I have contact with a few people with Ltwoo and I have tommorow video call or chat with someone from tech support, will see May 16, 2024, 05:59:46 AM |

Re: LTWOO ER9 & ERX - Electronic groepsets
If your unit is old enough, that might be true. The first units had a sheetmetal spring tab that was apparently prone to either failure or simply not having enough stroke. It was eventually upgraded at some point to have a coil-type battery spring that was more robust and also had more compliance. You may wish to check which type you have. I have the spring type. Maybe one of my cables have gone bad. Who knows. At least the AliEx LTwoo store has restocked spare parts. Anyways, I'll tough it out and see if these EBL batteries hold up. Going on a Father's Day ride to test them out! June 16, 2024, 12:00:36 PM |

Re: And the Winner is...
Wow! first time I've ever won something on an Internet forum in 20 or so years of surfing and it's a major item.  This would be my first gravel bike (have ridden a lot of road and MTB bikes since the early '80s, never got into cyclocross or hybrids), so I have a lot of research ahead of me for sizing, groupset, and tire size.

Re: WheelTop EDS TX Full Wireless Groupset (Chinese SRAM)
Update: I had the brake lever pistons lock up twice on my long ride yesterday. (Brakes were working normally at the start of the ride.) The first time was about 4 miles after the start of the ride, after a short downhill where the brakes were lightly used to control my speed. I was in a pack and as we came up to a stop sign, I pulled on the brakes to slow with the pack, and both brakes levers were locked up. I veered out of the pack, while pulling harder on the levers, and I felt a slight "pop" and they were working again. sorry for this quote but: you deserve a darwin award.....i would not like to have you riding behind me on a steep descent with this kind of material! dont get me wrong, but it is one thing if you bump into a wall but getting bikemates in danger is not a polite thing to do... i would not touch the brakes, it is the sellers or manufacturers duty to take care of this kind of quality issues.... Stay alive mate! July 21, 2024, 11:29:36 AM |

Re: LTWOO ER9 & ERX - Electronic groepsets
You surely have to be talking about ltwoo engineers here right lol What's there to complain about? I have 2 electronic groupsets that can run 7-13 speed cassettes which cost $350-400 USD a piece. Even if one of the RDs go bad, the overall cost is still less next to comparable systems if I need to get a replacement RD. The same situation could occur if I dropped or crashed a Di2/AXS equipped bike and needed to replace a component. On the plus side, I'm not locked into any cassette speed, forced to use DOT brake calipers, buy proprietary flat top chains and I can use off-the-shell rechargeable 14500 batteries. Again, if someone needs weather-durability, either stick to mechanical or spend the extra cash for Shimano or SRAM. It's already been established buying any of these AliEx/overseas components have risks associated with them. A little forethought and risk prevention/assessment goes a long way.
