I think you can use eGR v1 shifters and/or possibly the newer eRX, but I can't if that will work. Someone in the US on the sale forum has an eGR v1 groupset on sale that might be worth trying. Last you could try 3D printing the shift lever. I roll with some crit guys who've even duck taped their carbon frameset due to cracks. Unless you care about matching, there might be a few options.
What is unacceptable is that Ltwoo just stopped making and offering repair parts for a groupset after 1 year. How anyone would continue to buy their products after doing that is beyond me. I won't purchase from them again knowing that if a part fails then I'm SOL because they couldn't care less about our market.
eRX parts are interchangeable. eRG is supposed to have longer shifters, so not compatible. BTW, EeRX shifters are also unavailable! Possible they eventually release more stock, but if not, Ltwoo needs to be widely denounced on forums like this so others don't fall into the same trap. It's a simple public service announcement (fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me).

What part do you need replacing? Did you contact the sales vendor with photo or video? Also I've dumped my gravel bike a bunch of times. My eGR shifters are contoured with the flare of the drops, so it's usually my flared drop bars that hit the ground first.
The right shifter housing. Pictures attached. Oh, I've sent them several photos over aliexpress chat and email in trying to get a replacement. Doesn't or shouldn't take much explaining to know what's needed in this case, regardless. You'd think they'd keep ample stock of such a part for awhile--nope. They don't even have stock of the full shifter anymore--a year after version 3 was introduced! Not even of the eRX model. Wild
Hoping I can find a seller of the housing piece, but paying for a full shifter is fine

You're like a broken record. You bought 100 LTwoo groupsets and now spend your days blasting them every chance you get. Like we get it. You ever think maybe you didn't install your groupsets properly and that's why they don't shift properly? My LTwoo groupsets shift fine, my batteries are fine and I haven't had any water ingress issues. Cyclists are like a bunch of whining babies, maybe you should have bought 1 and tested it throughly.

Any intensive cycling buy Di2 or AXS, for anyone who's into DIY or like a flexibility, give LTwoo a try knowing the potential pros and cons.

At this point your posts on this thread add zero value.

Shifting quality aside, if you buy an Ltwoo groupset, you better hope that you don't succumb to a crash. If you do, given how common the flared bars (and therefore shifters) are these days, there's a very high likelihood that you'll break a shifter on one side. From my experience, good luck with their service. Now, since they don't have a robust presence in the West, good luck getting a replacement part. I literally bought my version 3 set a year ago and they don't want to help me with a part (and that's after a long exchange just getting them to understand the very basic, not complicated situation). Literally everything else works and it's just one cheap plastic part that I need. But this sure isn't Shimano or SRAM.

Sales & Classifieds / WTB: Ltwoo eR9 or eRx right shifter
« on: August 17, 2026, 09:05:08 AM »
Crashed and the right shifter outer plastic housing broke. The electronics works so all I really need is the outer piece but can but the whole shifter as well.

eR9 or eRx should both fit and work. I currently have version 3, but version shouldn't matter.

If you have some spare parts and no need to keep, let me know.

100pc. You can't pair a V3 shifter to a V2 group, for example, I tried :)
Ltwoo doesn't want to sell to the west. If you're in China, getting replacement parts shipped to you costs 5 dollars. To Europe / west it's many multiples of that.
They launch untested prototypes and spend the next years fixing the bugs at the expense of customers. If warranty costs you 5 bucks, it's fine. For westerners, it's a lot less fine. Also technically, I guess it doesn't have any of the norms products in the EU need to comply with, but I don't care much about that myself.
I have the eR9 version 3 groupset (bought April 2025). I'm actually trying to get a replacement right plastic shifter outer housing to repair what was broken in a crash. It's taken forever with many back and forth messages to still not get finality on whether they can sell me a replacement. They're telling me this is no longer in production. Is that even possible??? They would stop production of a version they introduced the year before?
I do wonder if it came down to it if I could put the equivalent eRX piece on in its place, assuming that's still in production. I'm finding the secondhand parts market for LTWOO is tiny.

Does anyone have an installation manual for the electronic drivetrain shifters? Mine snapped into two pieces and I can't seem to get the upper piece apart after getting the rivet pin out.

Hopefully I can get a replacement outer shift lever piece, right side. It separates from the pricier internal components.

Has anyone here had to make this replacement yet? I've been in contact with L-Twoo but no instructions from them (yet).

If more appropriate, can move this into the large L-Twoo thread, but that seems more focused on those buying new groupsets.

Bit of an old thread, but I also have experienced creaking that comes most likely from the rear wheel on an Elitewheels ENT 2.0 wheelset. Wasn't sure exactly while riding by myself, but my partner riding next to me confirmed it's the wheel. Generally only happens with higher power output, >250W. Also seemed more likely on hotter days.

Considering a Coros Pace 3. Planning to do a triathlon event next year and also just don't want to have to carry my phone on runs anymore. I don't necessarily need cycling connectivity for my purposes (won't be using it for cycling on weekly rides) but I think the Coros should work and connect to my Magene power meter via bluetooth once I clip in for the bike portion. For some of the sport watches you have to start a new activity at each transition, but the Coros is supposed to handle triathlons natively.

The somewhat-weak point of the Coros is music. And also wasn't sure if I should spend more for the mapping of the Coros Pace Pro vs the simplified breadcrumb version of the cheaper Pace 3.

Anyone have any thoughts to share on this or related watches?

Anyone know if the ER9 allows you to trim individual gears while riding? Say by holding the button on the inside of the shifter while clicking shift up/down?

Can't seem to find any mention of this but it would seem to be a no-brainer feature cause that's when you need the trim the most.

Last Friday, to my great surprise, the frame was delivered.

Unfortunately the packaging is very/too simple, and the box arrived quite damaged.... an aspect to be reviewed and improved in my opinion.

I noticed an imperfection on the seat tube where the seat post is inserted (see circle in photo).... right where the box is cut, but Spcycle told me that it was a mistake by the worker who did not fill it with resin.

A defect that can be solved by painting the frame and that does not involve any risk of breakage or safety.

The drainage holes and the mechanical gear cable are not finished well (I cut myself while running my finger through them).... I will have to smooth them out before painting.

The rest seems to be fine, even if I haven't had time to check everything properly this weekend.
I definitely got cut and some carbon fiber splinters while trying to fish some line through the bottom bracket area.

Did you protect the battery cable frame holes at all, or just the grease and rubber cement on the cable-port at the derailleurs? And I'm guessing you put the grease on first, then seal it up with the rubber cement?
Finally the torque wrench arrived. I'm torquing up the seat post clamp, and even with the wrench set to only 5 N-m (SL8 recommends 6.2 N-m), it feels high torque to me. Am I just being scared and should trust the torque wrench was QC'ed properly? Or should it feel like a weak turn of the wrench?

14
I'm considering it. I'll maybe hang onto it for a minute within the return window I started and see if stock comes back at one of the big ali sellers.

I already have a spare mag charging cable as well as a spare RD battery wire. If I decide to keep it, I might order a third mag charging cable since they seem to have phases it out and it might disappear from the face of the planet in a very short time.
May have to wait for some of the tariff scare tactics to be resolved before good prices can be had again? Clearly T went bigly to force a negotiation, but has anyone noticed ali prices up big yet? If it's 54% added on, that changes the value proposition.

I haven't been on my R088 for a week, due to riding either my gravel bike or my other road frame! The way I have it setup, it climbs like a champ! Also the new thru axle feels solid, though to be honest I didn't notice any wheel issues before I discovered the issue with the original TA! I'm thinking of swapping the tires out for some 30c for better road durability, but I love climbing with 25c tires!

A few photos from today's ride.  :)
