Shimano di2 groupsets from aliexpress

[Rebel_Yell]

I'll chime in and say that I bought a Shimano 105 R7000 groupset from Xinyu. No issues from them.

Same.  Several thousand miles later all is still good/great!!

Just ordered full Ultegra Di2 groupset for 960 EUR from Yiwu Donglue. I think this is a great price comparing to EU market.
Ill see if i have to pay additional custom when it gets here. Price between this and 105 is so close so no point in getting 105 and buying aftermarket cranks to make it lighter.

Frame is on the way so I didnt want to wait for 11/11

I purchased three Di2 groups (2x Ultegra R8100 and 1x 105 R7100). They all worked pretty well ! I get all of them from Yiwu when they are discounted and honestly compared to the North America market, the prices I paid are ridiculous.

Talking about if they are genuine or not, I could set them up and pair all the components on the Shimano app and I could even do the updates offer in the app.

Bought a 105 di2 group without the cranks from anrancee , after coupons, discount and a small import tax it came to about 580EUR delivered to the EU. If i'd cheaped out on the delivery i could have saved about 20 euros more.
The best price i have seen for a similar group is about 850 EUR + delivery.

Haven't mount it yet on a bike but it seems fine, all paired ok. I'm surprised the chain seems to be genuine (SLX/105), i was sure i was going to get a fake one.

On my package they declared the value at 100 or 150 EUR, but if customs smells something is wrong you could pay more in tax.

nice, I checked there alix page, for france price is 720 + 70eur delivery.
Without crankset, but included chain and cassette.
Which country did you get it delivered to, to get such a price?

I'm from Romania, but i think the price is similar for all the EU. Press "buy now" on the product page and you should get a price correction (eliminating VAT) and the attached message beside it . After you apply a coupon you should get around what i paid for it. I tried applying one coupon from here and it didn't work, so you might have to wait for the frequent  sales on AliX to get a deal

As others stated in this thread, you are buying from a grey market (probably the parts are destined for OEMs) and you should have very little expectations regarding any warranty later on.

Hello guys,
I ordered from Yiwu Donglue Bicycle Parts Factory store.

Everything went smoothly  - communication with the store was good. They shipped my order with DHL to Montenegro, and I ended up paying taxes as expected. Installation on the bike went well, and I updated the group via the app without any problems. It seems to be genuine stuff and works perfectly.

How much did you have to pay for taxes?
I’m awaiting my order to Croatia

Hi,
I paid 250€ 😡, but it’s fine, I was kind of expecting it anyway 😅

Right lever from my 8170 groupset started acting up, bought from Anrancee. Even with almost full battery it stops working, once it complained low battery mostly just suddenly is dead.
It's happening more and more often almost daily.

Changing battery revives it but then weirdly the old battery works again too. So it's some kind of software or contact issue.
Posted the problem on multiple forums no one knows why. Firmware up to date, no stuck buttons. Taken the wires off battery and put back nothing helps.

Probably have to wire the shifters. Contacted Anrancee if he could refund at least the amount it costs me to wire them as the groupset is almost unusable. Has anyone gone through any warranty things with these groupsets?

I'd be taking it along to your local Shimano service centre for them to have a look at and not mentioning where you bought it.

After a long chat Anrancee will refund 18 euros. For a lever that doesn't work. I guess that what you get for a cheap price you just have to hope you don't run into problems.

Just contact AliExpress and they will help you solve the problem

I received my Ultegra groupset from Yiwu Donglue today! Everything came nicely packaged and everything is genuine and working perfectl!

I paid 960 EUR for complete groupset but without disc rotors. I had to pay additional 36 EUR for customs and duties when it arived in EU. This is significantly cheaper than current offers in EU stores so it’s worth taking into consideration when buying. However if I was charged with full import duties it would be on par with offers you can find here. So depending on your risk appetite this is worth a shot.

Your description in the former post ... did you try opening the battery storage and dry it with a hair drier.. and let it dry for a couple of days? It sounds like a water problem.
My Powermeter hat exactly the same issue and i was lucky that drying could recover the system. Even the "empty" battery was then on 85% .
I have already seen some water problems at the 12x Di2 at Instagram. Seems like they either tried a new design or simply were saving money in the wrong spot.
