Liked just for the 80s movie montage music

@DaveNoakes 8 дней назад

Fits the build quite well I think

@adunnthing 7 дней назад

Loved this, but for the wrong reasons. The music and the bike reminded me of the classic film BMX Bandits 😂. Who knows what goes on in my head. Great vlog as ever

@DaveNoakes 7 дней назад

Apparently the same thing that’s going on in my head. Every time I ride this i feel like I’m in bmx bandits

Brill, I have installed the EDS TX (rim version) and, after 200 miles, I have to say that I love it. I had to go through the fine tuning for a couple of gears. Thanks for your videos, cheers!

Such a sick looking bike

@andrewmurgatroyd9214 9 дней назад

Nice colourfully bike helmet and choice of music dave. Enjoy your rides.

Certainly going to look at the gravel version, i can't believe people doubt your opinion, you certainly put it to test in those Devon hills, a warranty issue could be their only fault, but that's to be seen, or hopefully never 😊👍

@DaveNoakes 9 дней назад

Thank you, I’m excited about the gravel one too. The warranty and customer service seems to be peoples biggest concern. I’m about to test that out with some anonymous emailing

I'm a big fan of Chinese products for my bike, and I was initially excited by this until I saw that the road shifters are not compatible with the MTB rear derailleur. This was the reason I chose SRAM over all the other brands, even Shimano. I don't understand how companies struggle to make these gear systems inter compatible, do they use different signals between the shifters and derailleurs.

@DaveNoakes 7 дней назад

I’m with you on this…I wish I could pair the mtb derailleur to the road shifters

@walcottav 7 дней назад

Thanks Dave, I appreciate the review. It's great to have more affordable alternatives in the marketplace. With time presumably, any quality, tech and customer service issues will be addressed or the brand won't be around for very long. My questions surround the battery - how long it maintains its charge under real world use, whether the battery is replaceable by a home mechanic and if not replaceable, when would the entire rear derailleur unit reach end of life? Long term test report in three, six and twelve months time? 👍

bike is rad

@nickpatten5263 9 дней назад

I’m definitely interested in Wheeltop, all the reports I’ve heard are good so far but with any Chinese brands the backup worries me. Be interested to see what the Gravel version is like. Another (wheel)top video Dave.

@thetruelefty9302 2 дня назад

Does the derailleur have built-in protection against getting smashed like SRAM?

@DaveNoakes 2 дня назад

Yes, but it also doesn’t attach directly to the frame…so it still uses the hangar so that breaks instead of your frame

@stuartdryer1352 9 дней назад

Any thoughts as to WHY the MB version was less fiddly?

I just recently bought a 2023 Kona Dew Deluxe 650B with a Cassette Shimano Deore 11-51t, 11spd and Chainring 38t. How many teeth are on your chainring Dave?

@DaveNoakes 5 дней назад

42 up the front

@gr33n000 9 дней назад

Hey Dave, any reason this shifter could not be used for a Gravel bike?

@DaveNoakes 9 дней назад

It would work on flat bars…front shifter would have to somehow be attached to a drop bar…which isn’t ideal. But there is a gravel one coming soon!!!

@cb6866 9 дней назад

Thanks Dave. looks good to me ! And , what happened to cat ?

@DaveNoakes 9 дней назад

She had an operation so she can’t have kittens. She’s all good, just a bald patch.

Generally speaking, "premium" brand products are expensive to cover marketing costs, that's where these types of Chinese products shine as production costs should be similar but they don't have to inflate prices to pay GCN and co. for fluff PR pieces. As pointed out by others, the fire test will be the long term quality of their customer support.
