do you find your v3 levers rattle a bit over bumpy terrain? I'm finding mine a bit rattly and I am looking for hacks or solutions if anyone has.
I hope this doesn't happen. I got the wheeltops and I have the same problem and that's why I want to change them. The ltwoo 1s don't have this issue.

Does the LTWOO er9 setup ship with brake pads?
Can someone recommend their favorite replacement pads?
yes with brake pads. i replace them with shimano L05A-RF. just be careful all shimano pads for alli aren't original

Ok, thanks for quick replies. I have never heard of piston lubrication, but I will check it out!

I have seen a difference in the travel of the lever due to heat. Indeed, in Greece we reach 45 degrees. If there are any sticking, it is better to lubricate the pistons and if necessary, change the cables and the oil.

I would stick to something closer to the 800mAh. Not because the system can't handle different capacities (it can, as far as I know), but only because a correctly spec'd cell of that size can't differ in capacity THAT much. Something about the cell must be different, or they're wildly overstating the capacity. Neither bodes well for an indication of quality or compatibility. For reference, I have some good quality XTAR cells that are stated to be 800mAh and my eGR can go many hundreds of miles and thousands of shifts on a full charge. You don't need such wildly over-stated capacity for it to function well.
i use xtar too. no drain and i go many miles

First ride of 40 km with the bike.

As another user said, the frame is quite statically flexible at the bottom bracket, rear stay and front side fork.

However, when I rode the bike, I didn't feel this flexibility. I've only done 40 km but I'm looking forward to doing longer rides.

My weight is 76 kg and my maximum power is around 1000 W (low much, I know) and it met my expectations perfectly.

Honestly, I'm amazed by the frame for a first ride and I will keep you informed of my next rides.

The 38 cm cockpit is very nice and stiff, I sit perfectly on the bike and it makes you want to pusj the pedals.

My top speed was 55 km/h and it was very stable.

During sprints, it happens that the front disc can rub slightly on the caliper but it is light.

In short, I highly recommend the frame and look forward to ride it again.
i made my second ride and the seatpost is so flexible. probably i ll by original

I asked RK Ultra Extreme Carbon Fiber Store about shipping to the EU/Germany, which isn't possible atm. They said that they're working on implementing DPD shipping "this year" and to wait patiently for a while.
i ask the same. and they want to help them to understand how dpd works. i sent them all info and told me that they send very soon

I had exactly the same problem with my ERX. L-TWOO Official Store honored the warranty and sent a new RD with cables. It took 6 weeks (chinese new year and so on..) but now I am happy. The RD is the new model ("blue"), installing was easy and it works fine.

I love that groupset. When it works...
so old shifters works with new rd?

I love that groupset. When it works... +1 on that, couldn't agree more.
How does the blue differ from the old one? Could you please share a photo?
Is that store selling the ER9 / ERX both old and new versions on different listings? Are there listings for the ERX / ER9 with the new brakes? (the lighter ones with less bulk around adaptors).
i send message to 80 designer. and that is the ansewer. "Yes, dear Kostas, you can place the order by below link and leave a message on your order, we'll send the 2025 latest version to you directly, thank you".
link is from old erx but they send new one

5) I also can't untrim which is annoying. I often end up in a situation when the chain rubs, I click trim and it starts rubbing even harder but now that I can't undo it I have to shift in the rear, click trim and then shift back to the gear I was in before.

I've been riding it for 2 days only at this point so maybe I will eventually figure it out but at the moment the way the FD works is a mistery for me.
i had the same problem but after an update fix that. now doesnt need to go in small gear and back to big . if i press the same bottom again makes trimming depending on what gear it is at

how did you find about stiffness ? i believe is very flexy bicycle. i don't know if original is stiffness but this is very soft

I just pulled the trigger on the new edition of eRX from 80 Design Store, which has been very responsive. This is my second purchase from them and previously it was the eR9. I need a new set for my new bike, so I figured to take advantage of the currently running AliExpress promotions. Here are some images for the new eRX. You would notice the new hood shape, which now looks more like Shimano's. I hope this will improve the ergonomic of the shifters.
If anyone is interested, I saw this link from Baidu with more images - https://tieba.baidu.com/p/9320586786
Looks like the new eRX is heavier than the previous one. If it is for all the improvement, I am all for it.
do you try to syncronize something for new erx with old. like new fd with old shifters? is that possible?
