Road Bike Frames, Wheels & Components / Re: TT disc wheel - 23mm inner and 30mm outer?

i was under the impression that external width of rear TT disc wheels isn't as important compared to width of spoked wheels on the front. if you look at some of the leading brands (enve, aerocoach) you will see most of them at 28mm external. because the wind doesn't have to transition over the rim profile, it just moves along the surface of the disc, width isn't as important on the rear disc.

Yes, i have seen that most disc are about 28mm or less outside. But then i saw that Ron wheels and Scope has wider discs.
Thats why i started looking for chinese options.

i can't speak to your first question, but for question 2, the winow arb02 is a direct fit onto the supplied adaptor plate. Its not entirely clean or pretty (the circular carbon extension mounts poke out a bit, unless you want to cut them off). i purchased this adaptor plate and drilled out the hole spacing so it would match the mono riser bolt spacing for a slightly cleaner look.

What is the bolt spacing on the Ican monoriser?
I am about to order one, but looking for options to change the frontend of the bikes directly.

Road Bike Frames, Wheels & Components / TT disc wheel - 23mm inner and 30mm outer?
« on: August 22, 2026, 08:39:05 AM »
Hi,

Looking for a disc wheel for my upcoming TT build for my and my brother Ironman training.
Does anyone have a recommemdation?
For now it looks like a Serenade TRW80s in front with 23 inner and 31 outer width.

But its harder to find a disc closer to that width.
Carbonal DR-W30.5 with 23 inner and 30.5 outer is the only conteder so far.

Just wanted to add my Echo build.
Spent about 1200km on it now and love the feel of the bike.
Its built with Ltwoo Erx, Shimano Dura-ace chain, ultegra cassette and the wheels are a mix of Sernenade wavy rims and goldix hubs. Then i use the magene teo 170mm crankset with powermeter.

After some hurdles with the buildup it has been really smooth.

Upgrades to come are 20mm longer stem to change my position a little bit and the wheels will be changed to a set of Zen wheels. Just should decied of what.

I‘m experiencing the same issue you had, thought i‘d splurge on a pair of 1500mah Keepower 14500 for a massive range upgrade but seems like LTwoo doesn‘t like that even though the current is the same… Welp will order a pair of 800mah batteries und hope for the best

I bought Keepower 14500 800mAh and they seem to work really well. Did Vätternrundan (315km) with my Ltwoo setup this weekend with no issues at all.

What batteries do you use? Ive had aimilar issues when i tried using 1000mah instead of 800

Ordered another set of 800 batteries and now it works. So something must have been or gone wrong with my first set of noname batteries.
Bought a set of Keeppower 14500 batteries and now it works fine. Just did a 150km race this weekend and yesterday 90km of training with no issues what so ever.

Just put my Ltwoo Erx V3 on my bike and it will not wake up if i dont have the charger plugged in
Put everything together on the bench when i got it, tested it, updated it and left it for a week.

Now the bike is almost ready and it will not shift or connect via the app if the charger is not connected.
When connected everything is 100% charged but disconnects as soon as I unplug the charger.

Anyone has och used to have this issue and got a solution?

Road Bike Frames, Wheels & Components / Carbon rims - Recommendations
« on: September 30, 2024, 05:09:03 AM »
Hi,

Going to build my own wheelset during the winter.
From which dealer would you recommend to buy?

My specs will be 45-55 profile, i will ride with 30mm tires and if it´s possible to get wavy profile rims that would be nice.
Budgetwise i dont want the cheapest ones and neither the most expensive since this is more for learning and to be able to build and fix my own wheels.

Nice frame but is a 34 the absolute max for a chainring?
Running 36 at the moment and love to be able to use that or even 38 sometimes.

To be fair to Novatec: you got fake hubs from Airwolf

I saw that i had edited out some of my text, so i changed it now so it mentions that it was fake. Nothing bad about novatec. I have changed to a new hub ordered directly from novatec on one of the wheelsets now. The only bad thing for me have been Airwolf and their support.

So I’m waiting for my frame to be delivered. I’ve ordered this in raw carbon, airwolf wheels, sram axs rival groupset, Selle Italia saddle, and look keo pedals. I’ve got everything but the frame.

Just a curious question. What hubs did you order with your wheels? I ordered mine with novatec hubs that then ended up not to be novatecs, they were fakes with novatec logo on it.

Ah, if you can't get aliX to step in then negotiate the most reasonable outcome. The spokes & rims are fine, presumably, there's just the rear hub that's shitty (i think it's really really hard to mess up a front hub). You may have to get ready to learn how to rebuild a rear wheel. If you've never tried meditation, that may be the time to start :)

The wheelbuild itself are not a problem at the moment. And the fronthub is not a problem at the moment either.
Its both of the rear hubs that are messed up. But lesson learned and both the wheelbuilding skills and meditation are next inline to survive this bikebuild :D

Love the overall looks of the bike.
But like many other have said in this thread. The seatpost area looks like a big truoble in the future.
If that area would have looked and been designed differently it would have been really interesting but for now i will pass on this.

The logo was the thing that the Novatec contact in Europe also mentioned as wrong.

My are matte its not just dirt one them.

Sadly i didnt go through Aliexpress which i regret at the moment.
Yeah, the lesson was learned the hard way this time, and im currently fighting with Airwolf to sort this in someway.

It was when I contacted Novatec for help and spareparts i got told that mine were fake, so thats the only evidence I have for now.
But Airwolf replied today after a number of days and would talk to Novatec themselfs and got all the pictures sent to them again.
I have also used Novatecs before with no issues what so ever and thats why i choosed them. Im usually ride MTB so just use the road bike for longdistance training sometimes.
Attached some pictures. The second one shows the spacer thats been worned to pieces inside the hub and the third one shows the metal from the inside when i was trying to clean it out.
