Seriously. This is the first time in a long time I actually need to be a responsible adult.

Just like they do when buying clothes: you just say how much you "saved" by buying in sales.

Please let us know if ER9 shifters work with EGR RD and ER9 FD together or ERG shifters with ER9 FD before you install them!

There will be 10-12 days between arrivals, if I didn't install them I'll try it out but I need the ER9 bike for a race 13/4.
I think i'll let you down here

No worries. I think later too you can simply unplug the cable from derailleurs and plug in different one to see if it shifts. In any case, good luck with the race! Has your groupset shipped already? Its cutting pretty close to 13/4. Mine is still processing. I am not expecting it to arrive before mid April (order placed yesterday). Not that I need it like you do but I am unnecessarily impatient

Er9 is already at customs waiting for import. EGR isn't shipped yet. Really curious and hoping it just works flawlessly :s

Found a guy on chinese forums who made his own powermeter at home

Also learned today they REALLY don't like the brand rockbros there and have some pretty creative insults and threats towards them

Be curious to know why and read some examples. I didn't think its any worse than numerous other Chiner brands but you never know.

The Rockbros knockoff of Oneup composites are a great first (or only) flat pedal.

My p505 base combo has been great and honestly a onesided crank pm isnt even a comparisom

Same. The Magene PM with cranks for $300 is a steal. PM is dead on with my other power meters. And the cranks were a straight swap with Shimano and took less than 10 minutes for the install. Couldn't have been easier. I'm considering another set for the crit bike actually.

I picked up a spider with the rx4 cranks for 260 during the 11.11 sale. Pulled off the slider and put it on my racework carbon cranks. Couldn't be happier. Sold the cranks for another 40 bucks also.

Looks like there's now a Chinese version of Shimano premium grease. For 2 tubes, it's cheaper than 1 Shimano tube. Locally I paid $20 USD for the Shimano stuff. Reviews seem positive, might be worth checking out:

I have a set of these from 2021 with 8000km on them. Great pedals.

I also have another set of Rockbros composites that are similar to the Raceface Chester with about 5000km. Also great pedals.

The Rockbros knockoff of Oneup composites are a great first (or only) flat pedal.

I have a pair of real OneUps and personally I can't stand how convex they are.

I would rather have something flat or concave like MZYHR 327 or some Shanmashi alloy pedals.

Also Marin composite pedals are $20 at Bikesonline right now, I like those better too.
