    Does an Ebike make your legs waste away ;-)

    Riding aggressively on the whEee bike definitely does this for me. This bike has made me a better standup jetski racer. It helps me to focus on breathing in/out through my nose, focus on staying relaxed on the grips, and works my thighs. This translates into virtually no arm pump, and my back...

    do you buy an ebike to keep for a long time? or sell on before warranty runs out?

    I think you have a great setup in mind, and you'll enjoy it very much. The Shimano levers are much easier maintain regarding bleeding just air, or air and fluid.

    do you buy an ebike to keep for a long time? or sell on before warranty runs out?

    @Bontee, I really like the MT-7 caliper. I like the individual pads and the magnetization for holding the pads in place. I love the power potential they have. However, I'm not impressed with the Magura master cylinder and lever. Difficult to bleed, and the levers are too easily broken. I feel...

    No warranty, and too much into it to take a kick in balls. Love this bike anyway. It's so much fun and does well enough in enduro and steep descending.

    Removed frame bump stop on '19 Levo Medium -> fork clears!

    Want to sell your bumpstop? I know, old thread. Doesn't hurt to ask.

    Straightening rotors/discs

    I recently trued one my rotors with only the bare wheel on the bike. Without the additional rotating mass of the tire and insert, it was easy to pinpoint the spots on the rotor that needed attention by gently spinning the wheel and letting it stop accurately on those spots. After the tire was...

    E-bike assistance speed limit. What it supposed to be?

    21 specialized turbo levo is my whip. Not a fan of speed limit on pedal assist only bikes. My biggest complaint is how the motor feels like it actually fights back. It's a big distraction and a mental bummer. I just want to be able to focus on riding the trail within its' limits, the bikes'...

    Levo Gen 3 Stem Length - S4

    @arTNC i appreciate your comments! I carried over my stem length from my Orbea Occam H30 (so I have two DMR 50mm stems). I never gave the weight bias of the Turbo Levo any thought regarding stem length. Makes sense to me, thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts.

    Levo Gen 3 Stem Length - S4

    There are discussions about stem length and fork offset length. For fork, I am running RS Lyrik 44mm offset. The DMR 50mm stem (I've had forever) made the steering feel slow, so I decided to try Spank Split stem in 43mm and 38mm. The 38mm was a real eye opener! The steering was quick to move...

    Is a nice Emtb a bad idea to take camping?

    Do it. You'll have a way nicer bike than one of those folding things. And you won't be limited to walking trails.

    Levo Pro/random front rotor noise

    Before and after facing with flat file, Marzocchi Bomber Z1. Currently running RS Lyrik Ultimate, and it too flattened out nicely with very little effort. Sorry about image quality, my phone is a bit worn out.

    Levo Pro/random front rotor noise

    I went after both. I filed the integral mounts that are native to the fork and the chainstay. Then I decided to check the post mount adapters and found that they too would benefit from some attention.

    Levo Pro/random front rotor noise

    Hi all, The sound I would hear at random times sounded like a knife being sharpened. The problem has persisted through two different forks and now a completely new brake set. Disclaimer : I haven't been chasing this problem with new parts. I just always thought it was the cheap Amazon rotors...

    The New Official BLEvo Thread

    Hello, I have a 2021 Turbo Levo and I think the gen2 Levociraptor. I'm having trouble restricting the speed limit. When I reset the speed limit, there is a notification to reset the bike. When I do this, the speed returns to its previous setting. Apologies for asking this again, but I...
