Re: Groupset News An little interesting rumor floating around: apparently Shimano's auto-trim patent will expire at the end of this year

No word on synchro shifting unfortunately

Re: Groupset News
I can't tell what they are at all. Hydraulic and electronic paddles?

Hydraulic braking, electronic shifting!

Even if they don't make their own groupset, I'd still appreciate a proper 3rd party brifter with satellite shifting function.

Re: Groupset News eRX pricing is getting slashed in China, at least unofficially

I'm now seeing listings in the sub-3.9K RMB range, down from 4.5K retail

XDS will soon come out with the AD500, an eR9 equipped complete bike priced at 7K all-in. The bike itself is pretty garbage (frame, QR fork, integrated cockpit & aero seatpost are all made of alloy...) and the build is just a dressed up AD350 (R7 Hydraulic) but with the eR9 retailing at 3.5K, it really makes you wonder about their margins...

Re: LTWOO ER9 & ERX - Electronic groepsets
Has anyone noticed that the iOS app changelog states that they added 10-12speed fonction to eRX?
It would become a very interesting option for those with a itch to upgrade to electronic+hydro but who are happy with their 10sp groupset.

Just thinking aloud here

Firmware permitting, you could pair a Rotor 10-36T 13s cassette (designed for KMC X12 chain) with 46/36 CX chainrings to hodgepodge yourself a 2x13 setup

The 32T advertised max RD handles 34T just fine so 36T isn't out of the question, especially with the help of a RoadLink DM

The cassette itself is the same as Rotor's 11-36T 12s cassette but with an extra 10T and needs to be mounted on its own proprietary hub (basically an extended HG)

Re: Groupset News Besides the new gravel RD, the shift buttons and brake calipers have also been updated

obviously the usual caveats go with anything new they release, but the pace of iterations is really incredible

just a couple months ago the gravel RD looked like this


bonus, footage of early eRX prototype

Re: Groupset News
Will those shift buttons also appear on the ERX?

I remember awhile back you posted a website detailing LTwoo's financial investments. Unfortunately that site has a regional lockout now, but I found it interesting one of LTwoo's investors were US based.

You can try this site instead

No American shareholders to my knowledge, but some Chinese investors have significant global presence and financial heft (Hillhouse)

Those shift buttons and calipers will absolutely make their way to eRX/eR9 as running changes, they're a small company that can't afford to maintain many SKUs. Same reason why the mechanical hydraulic brifters are built so cheaply: the same shifter bodies and plastic gear levers are shared all the way from R5 9s to RX 12s.

Re: Onirii One The One has been updated to accept fully internal routing, with a really optimistic 675g claimed frame weight for PBO layup in Size 56
