Dear , Thank you for reaching out to us. Regarding the issue you described where the gears are shown in reverse on the display, this is because there is a difference between our EDS system and the bike computers. Example, 1st gear in EDS system meas the samllest gear but it means the biggest gear in bike computers. This is a known error and does not affect the normal functionality of the gear display or your cycling experience. Our product team is working to fix it but it will still need some time. If you have any further questions or encounter any other issues, please feel free to contact us at any time. We're here to assist you. Wishing you a pleasant day ahead. Best regards, Jane Wheeltop Team

@TaichoCyclist
@TaichoCyclist 4 месяца назад
Magene P505 is compatible with crankarms of the following patterns: 1) 505-S1108 / S1078: Sram 8-bolt crank arm (with Sram Red AXS, Force AXS, Red 22, and Quarq, etc.) 2) P505-S1103: Sram 3-bolt crank arm (with SRAM Force 22, Rival 22, S-900 etc.) 3) P505-R110X: Rotor Aldhu, Vegast etc. 45-tooth crank arm. The Lexon R1 uses the Easton Cinch pattern. So it is not compatible with P505 at present. Xcadey X-Power S is compatible because I have the powermeter.

How easy it is for you to set up is entirely up to your confidence level to manage the app to setup, connect, calibrate the gears. On top of that if your bike needs help to be built up, then a local bike store to do that and help you with the EDS TX set up is prefererred then.

@TaichoCyclist 5 месяцев назад
So far the crankset user isn't long to get a review yet. Give it a while more. A few quick notes: • The stiffness is there. • Helps the bike get a weight diet 🥳 • The lockring on non-drive side came loose and is re-tighten; else there will be spindle play in bottom bracket 😑 • Inconsistent spider lockring versions as I got the 16-tooth external groove version which is impossible to tighten on powermeter. Latter version reportedly supplied with the CINCH 20-tooth internal splined lockring. 🤞🏻

Hi, I jumped and bought the EDS TX rim brake version and I’ve a few questions on the app; 1) my IOS version is not showing battery level, any idea how to get that visible? Everything is paired and I can shift gears with the app but the battery indicator seems to be under where it says "Add Device". 2) my app will not swap the shifter button functions (which one goes up and down the cassette), it changes on the app but doesn’t change the levers themselves. Any idea how to sort this? 3) Is there a reset function to go back to the defaults if the tuning is not successful? Might be handy to restart from a common position. I’m find the app is the weakest part of the package and as it’s a major part of the system it’s hurting the experience.

How are you liking the EDS?
@MrJwmurph
@MrJwmurph 5 месяцев назад
It's great so far, bit tricky to set up, especially the front mech. I still can't get that set howvid like but not too bad as long as I don't cross chain. I had issues with the rear at the start but swapped the chain from KMC to Shimano Dura Ace and was perfect after that. Both new chains but smoother with Shimano, that surprised me. The brake cables that are included need a lot of tightening in the calipers, they slipped with my normal torque. The rear mech is really fast, I've also Ultegra Di2 and the EDS is easily as fast. The front is not so quick. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the groupset, when they sort the app out and do a firmware update on the front it will be even better.

It does but in big/ big there is still some rub on the front cage. I don't use that combination but I can't tune it out. It's a good groupset but I'd only go for it on a rim brake bike. 105 Di2 disk is heavily discounted at the moment and the cost is too close for the EDS to compete.
