I love the fact that you can change the speeds on this. I was hoping shimano would have done the same when they bought 12 speed out so I could upgrade my bike by only getting a new chain and cassette but nope. I reckon they could definitely do this easy with a firmware update.

Can't wait to hear what you have to say about this wireless system...been very curious about if it is any good

When changing the spacing for number of gears, can you adjust the derailleur's position for each gear like on the Archer D1x? I'd be interested in using this derailleur with a 13 speed Sugek cassette

Excellent vid Joe and kudos for calling out the dodgy stuff. You've got me thinking about this product when I hadn't considered wireless mtb. The multi speed option is game changer. Very keen to see the install and ride review vid!

Still waiting for the EDS review and the new rim brake one..... is it ever coming ?

Picked one of these up and I am very curious and excited. I have been trying to contact WheelTop about some other products, curious if you have had any experience with their CR12 crankset? Any idea of the weight? Love the videos.

I look forward to seeing what they do with the planned road groupset.

Do you know if and when they will launch road version? I must admit i love the faature to use it from 8 to 12 speed. I've also just checked their website and aliexpress with no luck- mountain version in sold out...

I also condemn the scam by the big brands not making their parts compatible. That's why I bought into the Archer D1x, those guys specifically built it for compatibility (1-20 speeds built in!)

@@galenkehler Simple. AXS is wireless. Archer uses cables to pull the derailleur, just like conventional shifting. It’s just a gimmick. Instead of running a long cable from shifter to derailleur, Archer runs it from a motor attached awkwardly on the chainstay. Reviews have said the shifting is slower than pre-Archer upgrade, but I can’t even call it an upgrade. A lot of Archer fans will get butt hurt over my comment but it is the truth of the matter.

Fantastic video! I am impressed and I would love to get a hold of this system! I want to get it on my G2!

The product launch in the US lasted a week before selling out! Feeling lucky to have noticed they were launching and getting an order in before the sell out.

I'm eager to buy this, after seeing the review of Berm Peak Express. But I cannot find anywhere on aliexpress one for sale. Any hint?

Really interested in how this system is compatible with so many older gear systems and would be ideal for all those tinkerers who want to upgrade older bikes to electronic shifting. I look forward to see how good their road levers turn out as I would seriously consider them for my next upgrade instead of shelling out thousands to Shimano or Sram.

Does this derailleur have a drop bar remote? I hope it isn't just limited to flat bar bikes.

I love that 11/10/9 speed feature. I could use it on my 1x road bike. Hopefully they will make UK shipping

As far as drop bars, wheel top should just run an end plug junction box and shifter buttons and the rider adds brake levers of their choice

@China Cycling. I visited their site and it's not available yet. However, I did see it being sold in aliexpress under sram gx keyword. Nothing shows up when I search under wheeltop eds. When it is officially for sale, I hope you would include a link and discount in your video. I too am using sram red axs but I would not mind trying this one out.

How big is on a bike? how much its protruding outside bike silhouette. I saw my friend's GX AXS recently and it's terribly big (comparing to shimano, or even mechanical sram - which is quite big as well), i'd hit rocks with it few times per ride :/

I got an EDS and I’m using with my old 10spd MTB so far it is working great.

Good review thanks. Great to see that backward compatibility as you said.

I believe they are still working on this and road/gravel versions having emailed them recently. I hope they actually manage to get this into production in Europe. I for one would be on the list...

This, but with a hydraulic road lever and wireless shifting. Are Wheeltop working with LTWOO or Sensah in this regard? I'd preorder instantly if so.

Can u customise the spacing for each gear?

AWESOME REVIEW!Thank you for this 💯 very INOVATIVE product 👍

Seems they removed the EDS shifters from the market. It`s no longer available on their website.

would love to get a review of cross compatibility of chains/cranskets especially between a 11/12 speed setting.

Joe, no actual clutch on that derailleur - just a strong pivot spring?

When will the EDS TX road group set be available in the U.S.?

Well I think I need to get my hands on one of those. I use the axs X01 on 1 of my bikes and I absolutely love it. I run 9 speed on my E-MTB, I would love to have a derailer like that on it and tune it for 9spd.

Can I use this dreaullier with a 9 speed cassette with 11-50 ratio?

being able to select cassette size is interesting...but wasn't shifting ratio of cassettes particular to the manufacturer? for example a shimano 12 speed shift ratio is different than sram, how does the EDS system know this or can it be changed by the app?

Now ezbike in Canada is listing the product. And this channel showed a drop bar version at a trade show. Would be nice for you to give us an update on your long term test experience with the one you installed for this.

Thanks for the info man!

When is your test ride video coming?

I won't ever buy SRAM again because of how they treated the people that already owned their Red groupset. I had full eTap red and when I bought it it came with a USB stick supposedly to be used for upgrades. Never did get to use it but I'm sure I paid for it. Then SRAM introduced their 12 speed but they Ef'd up even more by making the chain, sprockets, and shifting proprietary so that it did not conform to the standards on the market. You cannot use a Shimano chain or cassette if you was in a pinch and can only use SRAM's components. People say there are 3 major brands in the market to choose from but IMO there are only two because for me SRAM will never be an option. Thank you for this video and clearing up the mis information others are spreading. I hope everyone gets a chance to find this. You are a true brother to cyclists.

I hope they come out with a road/gravel version too.

Love that you have the balls to call Sram's (and Shimano + many others, imo) design decisions 'disgusting'. As an old cyclist who likes to tinker, the modern stuff, designed to not be cross compatible, not even compatible with parts of a year or two old of the same brand, I too find disgusting. Take the front derailers for instance that do not leave enough clearance for wider tires...so many examples to list. They have sucked the fun out of cycling. Support the smaller brands, if those brands have a fair business model, providing their products are good enough, of course. Let's hurt the big greedy brands, teach them a lesson. The customer holds the power. Don't give them your money, their stuff is way over priced, over hyped and do not last..

I am aware there is a risk, but I am fed up of the big brands trying to push us into upgrading e.g. new cables and systems to go from 11 speed di2 to 12 speed di2, no rim brake for new systems, etc. If Wheeltop can sustain and refine this groupset, it will be a success as it anyone would be able to upgrade their old, forgotten by the big brands drivetrains to whatever speed folks want. I think it's a genius product idea, let's see if it works. Another angle, with this groupset, now I can upgrade my 11 speed bike to 12 speed by simply changing the cassette and chain.
