LTWOO eGR

[carloescobar]

My eGR arrived a week or so ago. Calipers look similar to my GR9 ones. Spacing seems to be 70mm on both gr9 and eGR. Was GR9 originally flat mount?

Here’s a pic of the battery it came with…even though I selected the no battery option.

EDIT: It seems the mounting hardware is different from GR9 to eGR. Not sure if that's what makes it post mount instead of flat.

Here's to hoping. The listing specifically said post mount. Also great news about the battery. Hopefully mine comes with one too.

If I'm not mistaken the calipers themselves are indeed post mount, but the hardware makes them compatible with flat mount. That's how they get around patents.

If they're anything like my GR9 then they're neither but Ltwoo's own standard, to avoid paying Shimano. 73 mm (I think). They came with mounting hardware but not one that would work on my current fork, and several others have also had the same issue. We'll see. I would not be that annoyed having to get some Ultegra calipers used or something like that.

Any one have a chance to try an AXS cassette? AKA an XPLR or 10-36? I’m curious if these can be micro adjusted to shift one well. With a flattop chain and SRAM X Sync chainring.

I am keen to know if anyone has this setup, ifworks well and if you need to change the pulley wheels to suit the flattop chain?

I'd like to know this as well. There are some attractive SRAM cassette options.

Recived now. Works flawless straight out of the box. We'll see when I install it. Still deciding on frame. Same breaks as Garza, same mounting as the GR9 ones. As long as they fit confidently on the fork on the new bike, no problem. Think I'll try findiing replacement charge and connection cables, would suck to f one up and wait for weeks for a replacement.

Any suggestions for replacement pulley wheels? 11 speed gravel cassettes?

So far I'm pretty happy with my cheapo 12sp Sunshine 11-50 alloy cassette. It's super lightweight, considering the size and shifts mostly pretty smooth. I've seen the same one under a few different brand names, I think, incluidng Goldix. Be warned, though, the eGR will work with 50t, but it isn't the best option. The shifting suffers in the highest gears because the b-screw needs so much room to clear, but you also suffer in the lowest gears because if you shift too quickly the pulley wheel will actually strike the cassette.

I know you were asking for 11t options, but I only brought it up because I was surprised that such a dirt cheap cassette works so dang well.

Edit: I believe I have this one, in the 12sp 11-50 configuration. You may want to consider the 11-46 11sp configuration, or maybe see if you can find an 11-48t cassette somewhere.

I have that one in 11-46 11 speed actually. Ordered during a sale this fall but never got to install it before winter (Scandinavia).

Had a little fun yesterday in the snowmageddon (US deep south, not used to this stuff).
