@@DontGetDroppedCycling I went di2 last year and I couldn't imagine going back to cable shifting. Does Wheeltop have different shift modes like Shimano? I like riding in semi syncro on di2. When I shift the front chainring it automatically shifts the rear 2 gears either up or down.
I'm sure most of the smoothness is from running DA rings and cassette, as long as your indexing is on point. I run DA on my race bike, and 105 on trainer, and the difference in shifting performance is night and day :)
This one got me excited. Ive been looking at the eltwoo but didnt like the battery solution on that one. This SRAM style batteries looks way better. Looking forward to the long time review :)
Oh man - they supplied a little brass adapter to go into the bleed port! How come you didn't use it? Aide Memoire? Small button for a smaller cog AND Big Button for a Bigger Cog
@@DontGetDroppedCycling yeep shifting veeery goood, custom mode. I dont want to turn race mode,no nead. I yust have problem with 8 gear it is cranking litle bit,canot fit it well,bot mybe is the cassete. I run with cassete abaut 20.000 Km
Keep us posted, on how it works because I don't have room for another bike so I'm going to upgrade my giant I lose races on to you on . 😂😂😂😂 But seriously, I'm thinking about getting this for my giant contend.
What brake calipers stayed in the end? DA or Wheeltop? And when bleeding them, you didn't tinker anywhere around the calipers? Just bleed port at the shifters, oil, and squeeze?
Still running the DA and ya all I did was pull the leaver and tap the cup to get the bubbles out at the top and didn’t touch the caliper side at all. Haven’t touched them since and have done a lot of riding 👌🏽
@DontGetDroppedCycling great! Already athering hints and tips for the installation as I think you made my mind on the Wheeltop groupsset 😀 Wasn't sure so far but seen only good reviews. Was looking for electronics but without a need of swaping my cassete and cracked due to the fact I have power meter but in it. Buying even cheapest shimano 105 would be as twice as much for the set with no cassete and crank and no meter. With all, nearly as 4x times as much. By the way, the auto trim feature is still there? Was removed from Ltwoo very quickly. Funny shimano didn't chase wheeltop for the same.

Once you go electric shifting you'll never look back. Gotta get another one for the gravel bike now.
Ya Erik is working on that over the winter!!

Negative. It’s called Erik doing the right left right step with my fingers when I move between the front rings 🤪
Great video man, I'm buying parts for a new build and I'm definitely going Wheeltop
Niceeeeeee!

Cassette is just Ultegra, those DA cassettes are 🤑
@DontGetDroppedCycling haha yep, and I really love the DA chainrings, their shift speed is unreal, even on mechanical
Looks like a quick install… someone noticed how often Eric changed his wardrobe? 😂
Ya it was a pretty easy and painless install. Just had to squeeze it in between real life and being a dad!

Been using it a lot the last two months and so far nothing but smooth sailing. Lots of solo rides, group rides, 100k rides and even a race! 👌🏽

I did… just didn’t have a good seal between that and the shimano cup I was using 😂 #amaturehour
Thanks man for the video,especial for paring mode that was the problem to me,it is great setup, batery is great.
Once you get over the pairing and set up hurdles the group has been amazing!

@borisdodig2433 regular mode has been so good and flawless I forgot about race mode when I raced!!!!

So far nothing but smooth sailing!!!! I need electronic on the gravel bike and EVERY bike now. Will do a long term vid next season ✌🏽
Ok okay you so fancy now 😂😂
Oh this is just the beginning… more fancy toys to come! 🤪

@ ya the auto trim still there and working like a charm!
No gloves?
Negative, I like to live dangerously. Better not watch my race videos with no gloves 🤪
