Maybe they use a 1:2 scaled bike for testing?

Nice! Hopefully the continue to make Sensah Shimano compatible shifters with hydraulic. That would probably be a big seller as well.

Is there any word on when Sensah plans to get the hydraulic groups to market?

I'm quite busy these days so no time to do a full write up of the Shanghai exhibition

Concerning Wheel Top, it's a total flop from the few testimonials I skimmed over

Shifting is slow, clunky and unresponsive (especially FD) which is odd because their MTB RD apparently shifts quite fast now. Batteries are still 'removable' but now screwed in place(?) due to patent restrictions. Build quality sucks and the general feeling is not as premium as eRX. July target launch for the Rim brake model is ambitious and unrealistic.

Sensah hydraulic levers feel weak and their electronic groupset has been pushed back for the nth time.

L-TWOO is still by far the most promising.

Chain dropped right after i took this video lol


eRX not looking so good either

Sensah print already coming off the levers... Had the same thing happen to mine...

At least LTwoo isn't alone when it comes to bad electronic FDs!

I have my Sensah Empire PRO  in 3rd season, I have made total of 15.000 km... Printing on carbon break levers is as good as new..

But I must admit something...Sensah in my case is reberended to "Retospec", the brandname in use by my bike supplier...

My sensah shifter logo and grip are worn.  That isn't the biggest issue for me.  I have them 2x with srx rear derailleur on my gravel bike. I have the shifters mounted inward on my bars.  This causes shifting when braking. This isn't fun having the front click to small ring and you not know it til the bottom. I'd suggest keeping the hoods as inline as possible to stop the shifting when braking.

I wonder if their hydros have the same issue.

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

kbernstein

Didn't Ltwoo already have auto-trimming but had to disable it in an update because of patents?

Synchro shifting is the RD shifting 1-2 gears when you shift the FD to compensate right? Don't all 3 big manufacturers do it already?
