Crank
Purchased: 2025-07-02

Received mine, finish is great seems well made and simpler graphics than lots of of the carbon cranks coming from chinese manufacturers. I ordered 167.5mm with discount codes on Aliexpress came out to $238 CAD. Crank arms and spindle weigh 358g. With 3 bolts and spider 406g. Will be pairing with Dura Ace 9100 53-39 chainrings for a total weight of approximately 554g. Photos to come. Question for those who have these already, did anyone have to add the provided shims to ensure the spider bolts were tight?

The reviewer discusses the LTWOO V3 eRX eR9 electronic groupset as part of a broader overview of Chinese cycling components. He mentions it's an upgrade to the IR9 with some carbon elements, available for around 500-600€ for almost the entire groupset via AliExpress, and compares its feel to Shimano 105. He notes it uses a battery in the seatpost and has app control capability.

AI Summary

Pros

  • Upgrade to IR9 with some carbon elements
  • Available for around 500-600€ for almost the entire groupset
  • Shifting feel is very comparable to Shimano 105

+3 more

Cons

  • Battery must be installed in the seatpost and connected (doesn't have the advantage of a smaller derailleur or not needing two separate batteries for front and rear derailleurs)

The reviewer discusses the WHEELTOP TX Carbon Fiber Ceramic Bearings pulley wheel cage upgrade kit in detail, focusing on its design, functionality, and performance. They highlight its oversized pulley wheel system with an 18-tooth tension pulley and 11-tooth guide pulley, ceramic bearings, and carbon fiber construction. The reviewer explains how the larger pulley reduces chain articulation and friction, potentially making the drivetrain quieter and more efficient. They also mention the aesthetic appeal of the product, including its 'outer space' look and multicolor light-reflecting decal. The reviewer tested the product on a Wheeltop TX rear derailleur and attempted to fit it on Shimano derailleurs with some modifications. They conclude that while the upgrade offers marginal performance benefits (approximately 1.63W power saving), it's primarily a bling upgrade for those who have already optimized other components.

AI Summary

Pros

  • Reduces chain articulation and friction
  • Ceramic bearings in both top and bottom jockey wheels
  • Carbon fiber construction

+6 more

Cons

  • Only compatible with Wheeltop TX rear derailleur without modification
  • Requires adding 3 extra chain links (can be problematic for some users)
  • 31g heavier than stock cage

3.0/5
Usage: Heavy

Unfortunately, completely died in 2025 (maybe spring?) so 1,5y. Not bad for the original price, but also a little disappointing to have to scap it after so short time frame.

Until then, it worked without issues, usually had a good and fast signal, only occasional ghost (very fast?) heart rate, but usually fixed by restart + strap again / watering slightly

[...] But before we are getting severely off-topic: I am using this mini pump since a few months. So far, very good results. It's just small and lightweight enough to fit in my mini saddle bag. Can pump ~3x 28mm tire to 65psi before it runs out of battery. Got it on sale for $23 back then. Prices are roughly the same (no sale currently), so might be still a good deal if someone is looking to replace their CO2 pumps.

Check out the XOSS XL-1200. I ended up buying 2 of them, in case one runs out of battery I can have another slipped in my pocket. Awesome quality (I've dropped mine a couple of times on concrete and barely a scratch). I rarely run them at full power on the road coz they're too bright. Never tried them offroad.
