Component Deals & Selection / Re: New Ltwoo shifters... availability?
« on: December 27, 2025, 07:10:19 PM »Well, I always keep my eyes peeled + have notifications set up for specific key-words to find used gravel bikes / parts, but the thing is, people here are delusional thinking that their 10 year old bike is worth $1500. A partial GRX groupset in my market fetches $350 ~ CAD. It's not a bad price, but I always weigh between several options to get the most bang for my buck, since I'm making every dollar stretch here. That's why I browse here to find hidden gems.
My current approach is to see if I can be patient and wait to get a used disc brake frameset with wide tire clearance, then fit a hydraulic LTWOO groupset on it, as sometimes building from a used frameset can be cheaper here.
Your lucky to find at 350, I can't even find shifters mechanical brakes without RD for less than 250-275 CAD in quebec
My guess is GR7 should set me at 150-175 for mechanical brakes and RD included
The new finishing suits my need also
