Done 3000km on mine. Friend of mine did 6000km. Replaced a chain at 5000ish. No complaints. Works as it should. We did get an experienced mechanic to fine tune it for us. Wasn't as smooth before he tuned it. He'd never used the app or seen the groupset. He spent 10min or so playing around with it and said it was easier than any other app.

2,000KM on my LTWOO ER9 ( the brother down to the ERX) and it’s been amazing to me. Only minor issue I had was that my shifter button would stick and always go to my easiest gear on the rear derailleur but that has seen been fixed (not sure how, perhaps software update). Shifting is so smooth, app is great. It’s only going to get better from here. Has not experienced any problems in Vancouver winter(rain heavy weather). I’ve charged the groupset twice. Currently debating putting this on my race bike to replace Ultegra r8020. My advise to make this group set great - use a shimano chain (sram flat top sticks to the rear derailleur pulleys) - use their shifting set up and individually tune each gear

I’ve put about the same distance into my eRX set. Apart from an early failure of the rear derailleur which was replaced free of charge it has been working flawlessly. Interestingly I have recently had the same issue with the up shifting. It seems to shift 3 gears with one touch on the shifter. I’ll have to have a look at the springs you mentioned. It’s actually been behaving though so don’t know why it happened. Either way I love it. Smooth, quick and the braking feels very solid. I live the feel of the grips too. They are slimmer than the shimano Ultegra so feel slicker. Enjoy the pasta! 🥖🍝

Got my eRX delivered in november 2023 and finished the build early 2024. Put out about 1200km since then and had no issues at all. Everything was working so well, I even completely forgot to charge it after the first 100% and the battery died on a ride after about 650km with lots of climbing and therefore a decent amount of shifts. Because of the issues by Joe, Grant and yourself I was at first not very happy with my decision to place the order. Now I would for sure recommend the groupset without hesitation.

First of all thank you very much for your review. It's very useful. It helped me understanding that's not a real point buying this group-set over the Sram Apex AXS that comes fully equipped with cranks as well. The price difference doesn't really compensate the risk of having a problematic unit. That's the main issue here. I still have the feeling that quality assurance with these products is a big question mark and a kind of a lottery.

I just installed the ER9 groupset this week. Performance has been amazing for the $350 USD sale price I paid for the groupset. I had some issues with the battery cabling, but that has more to do with the frameset I was using. Also it seems LTwoo has ironed out many of the early problems. I also used the opportunity to swap over to a 12 speed cassette, because why not? This has to be the most user friendly electronic groupset on the market. Easy to service mineral oil hydraulic braking, user replaceable batteries, cassette speed flexibility and the ability to fine tune the gearing are all phenomenal. Keep up the good work as well! 🥖🥖🥖

Hi Luke, my erx was working faultlessly for about 3 months which with the amount of riding i do is about 1000ish miles, then after a recharge of the batteries the shifters no longer worked. I could shift gears using the app but the shifters weren't playing. I changed the coin style batteries in the shifter and tried to bind the shifters to the derailleurs. But no joy. Like you i replaced the rear derailleur with one i had on another bike i have just built and immediately everything started working as it should do. So there is definitely a problem with the rear derailleur. I am now in communication with Ltwoo to try and get this sorted and hopefully get a replacement rear derailleur under warranty.

Hi Luke. I’m still on my LTWOO eRX groupset and loving it. Been flawless apart from the intermittent multiple downshifting which, after some Tweaking using the app, seems to have gone. One other thing I’ve notice though is crash mode. I think there is one. I was climbing a steep hill, was up on the pedals, changed gear and heard a loud snap. After that the whole groupset stopped working. No manner of button pressing would wake it up. The only way to get it up and running again was to limp home on one gear and attach the charging cable. All perfect again. Weird. In future I think I’ll carry with me a 9v battery and a fashion a similar magnetic charging lead to prevent it happening again. Of course I’ll be buying the rechargeable 9v battery and lead from Ali Express! I’ll let you know how I go. Love you chanel. JP

Early adopter of erx here. At first the groupset charging light didn't flash. Battery ran low very quickly, i had to send my battery pod (expensive :/, but let's call it ocassional chinesium tax) they told me they would refund me the shipping costs, but it hasn't happened since the say they can't give me money, i guess i could ask for some brake pads, not ideal but i would eventually need them anyways. At the end it was the RD causing the problem. They sent me a replacement RD (half of the cage was aluminum lol) i swapped for the original carbon cage mainly because black paint/anodizing? falls very easily. Everything smooth since then. My only complaint is that trimming is not always perfect while in the middle of the cassette, sometimes i have to trick the groupset to use the next cog trim setting for the front derrailleur by up-shifting -> trim -> down-shifting again, maybe i am not adjusting my groupset right.

I installed the product about 6 months ago and traveled 2000km. I'm not satisfied at all: I've got a SRAM 12s 10-28 cassette and a Racework 170mm 50-34 at the front. The front derailleur has a lot of difficulty going from small to large, I tried to adjust the limits from the application but if you exceed it the chain falls. The rear derailleur is not that bad but you have to spend a lot of time making micro adjustments on the gears as it is very imprecise. I wanted to try it after watching several videos but my advice is to spend a little more by purchasing a SRAM or Shimano so you can be sure of perfect functioning. Customer service is almost non-existent, they respond with messages from a bot and after a long time.

Sadly mine died today during a ride. Not even 6 month old. Rear derailleur motor turns but the derailleur is stuck in the smallest cog. Went there from the middle of the cassette by itself. Neither a reset, new shifter battery nor charging the main battery does anything. Front derailleur is working still fine...

Have you tried the 'Calibration' setting on the app? This resets whatever position the rear derailleur is in to gear 7, then allows you to shift either side of that. Can help if it has 'lost' it's position.

Yeah I did try that. No movement Together with ltwoo it was diagnosed as a gearbox failure and they will send me a new rear derailleur. Annoying but at least I will be operational soon enough.

How on earth is it possible that Luke hasn't reviewed the Mangene crank spider powermeter yet, he could fit it to any of his existing carbon cranks...

Is It possibile to index the gear without the need of a companion app? Somehting like the adjustments that can be made on a Di2 only by clicking on the levers?

Hi Luke, what about the batteries in the wireless shifters? Is there any low battery warning or what?

i have just finish my bike nd i mounted a ER9, it was the cheaper solution, and all the process went smooth. the most complicated part has been (or maybe "is") the fine tune of the front derailleur. i really don't know if the issue is related to my setup but it is complicated.

I dont even need to watch this video lol I was going to do research as I am looking for a cheaper than Ultegra electronic groupset. The time stamps for this video are named perfectly. "Front Deraliuer issue" Battery Issue" "Button Issue" "Waterproof Issue" - Thats all I needed to know lol. Thanks. Ultegra it is for me

Very impressed with my EGR groupset. Shifting was easy to dial in and is buttery smooth. Time to log some miles and might buy a few more sets for my other bikes

the best purpose of these are truly to put pressure on sram and shimano. they probably will take 1 or 2 generations until perfection, but seing how they even now have features that arent available is hilarious. only thing that holds them back is patents. luke.. is there a chance that you are interested in building a chinese titanium road or gravel bike? thinking about buying a frame but am unsure about quality of titanium frame from aliexpress
