00:23:48

The reviewer discusses their experience with the WHEELTOP EDS-TX Wireless Carbon Electronic Shifter/Derailleur groupset throughout the video.

  • The front derailleur automatically trims but lacks adjustability for trim positions.
  • The app allows initial calibration but lacks fine-tuning options for the front derailleur.

Groupset
Purchased: 2024-07-16

I have previous experience with L-Twoo groupsets. I much prefer the feel of the eGr shifters compared to the eR9...they have a far more tactile feel to the shift buttons, and the hoods are slightly chunkier (I find eR9 hoods a little too narrow). I went with a 46T max on the rear as that is the max stated capacity of the eGr. I _think_ it could take something bigger, but I don't really feel a need for it...42-46 is a far more generous gear than I'm used to.
