Looks good! Endurance and an aero frame :D I'll probably run a 120mm stem

Hi Pat,

Do you know if Canyon Aeroad seatpost fits Yishun R-086D? I am planning to buy a 0 offset seatpost but I can't see any compatible seatpost around :(

Does anyone know some aftermarket seatpost for our frame? I badly need a 0 offset seatpost but there is no available in Yishun themselves according to Melinda.

Does anyone experience issue regarding slipping saddle rail? I am also trying to find a seatpost that is compatible on this frame. Does anyone know what 0 offset seatposts are compatible?

Wait, am I seeing this right? The size 520 has stack of 521.2 and reach of 390.8 and that's make the stack/reach ratio a wopping 1.33 and it makes it more aggressive than my current bike. Am I correct or am I missing something?

And I am in the Chinese frame market again and looking to build a new bike since my Yishun R086D is now taking a toll on me. (Geometry is too aggressive and I ain't getting any younger)

So to anyone who bought this frame, how is the ride feel?

I've not made pictures during the build. What are you interested in?


Like the breakdown of parts that you've used and the wheelset. I already have a Yishun agent (Melinda) and she's really nice and helpful. I ordered R086D and RSL50D wheelset from her.

Do you have a build breakdown? That's a beautiful bike! That was my first choice from Yishun but the size that I want was not available

would suggest you try thread locker on the bolts 'and see if 10 nm works

I just tried this. Applied threadlocker on the expander bolts on seat post, torqued to 10nm, did a 60km ride and no slipping issues so far for the whole ride. I tried 11nm (with no threadlocker) but issue returned after an hour of riding.

So therefore, slipping seatpost was caused by the bolt loosening maybe due to vibration. I checked them after every ride (before I applied threadlocker) and it was really loose (Had to torque them back to 10nm each ride).

BTW I used loctite 243 medium strength.

That's crazy ass cheap and interesting! If this goes well I think the big names should update their prices

I got my 105 Di2 upgrade kit in AliExpress for a price of LTwoo ErX. I think that is a pretty good deal already.

I, now have a point of comparison as I already installed my Shimano 105 Di2. Pressing the shifters with Shimano is much better since there is a feedback and has more tactility compared to LTwoo which feels like linear when you are pressing those shifters. In terms of shifting performance of RD and FD, I feel Shimano is much better because it's like you are shifting with mechanical (almost no delays) and more quieter than LTwoo. Now I see why LTwoo is much cheaper because Shimano has a much better hardware and software. Also has a much better integration with my head unit (Garmin) because my unit always detects low battery on my LTwoo. Braking feels much better with Shimano. LTwoo's brake caliper is shit

Now, I am trying to sell my LTwoo Er9 if anyone's interested because I need funds. (I plan on not selling for my Gravel bike project but I really need funds right now)

I had the same issue. 9Nm didn't work, 11Nm did the trick (I'm 70kg)

I feel 11Nm is too tight already but I'll try.

Anyone else having issues with slipping seatpost? I already torqued them to 10NM with carbon paste and it's still slipping mid ride. :(

Hello I have contacted LTWOO without response, There was a question: if anyone figured out yet what the “Gear protection”  options in the LTWOO application actually is?

Purpose is to prevent your drivetrain from crosschaining. If you are on the big gear at the front, you won't be able to shift your rear to the last 2 lowest gear. Same if you are on the small ring, you won't be able to shift your rear to the last 2 highest gear
