I cut down a pair of those so they only stick up about 15 mm from the bars - I've been using them on my Levo for the last 5 years and they work really well

Wild speculation at this late stage, but could this be the new motor (described in a recent SRAM patent) ? Apparently this is a Brose motor, and this type of motor can already knock out 120 Nm (the TQ HPR 120S). The battery could easily be different lengths and still leave room for a SWAT box...

Yes, my mate's Gen 2 S-Works was less than 20 kg when we swapped his 700 battery for my 500.

Many thanks - that worked perfectly. I used version 3.20 (and switched off auto-updates on my Android phone).

Faxes are being used again by companies to send sensitive information - they can't be hacked like emails.

I treated myself to a Mondraker Dune 7 years ago and it transformed my riding too. Geometry was radical at the time - close downhill numbers, but now it equates to a 160 mm travel downcountry bike.

Interesting bike at 3D Printing Show in Germany - has Brose developed a Gearbox Motor ?

I have had my Levo for 5 years now, and the motor power was noticeably reduced with every firmware update - and when finally it needed a replacement motor (after nearly 4 years), the power was even less. Of course these power reductions were intentional, in order to lengthen motor life, but it...

I prefer Hybrid Assist as well. The "feel" is good, but as expected the maximum capability is less than my Turbo Levo - however I usually ride the TSDZ2 eMTB on less technical trails (partly because of the reduced ground clearance), which I would never use Boost on the Levo on anyway.

Yes, I've done that.

250wh - good for around 35 km, and a spare is light enough to carry in a backpack if required.

Non-drive side

I built this during Lockdown to see whether a 16.5kg eMTB was a good idea - and it is.
