Thank you for the historical context. As an American who rides in the national forests of the Sierra Nevada, hoping to get legal access to MTB trails soon, I fully agree with limiting power and speed to keep pedelecs access on every mtb trail. But then, I’m biased… I traded my Levo for a Levo...

This article and discussion is why I sold my Levo and bought a Levo SL. My Levo had too much power I almost never used (rarely rode in Turbo) at the expense of so much extra weight.

Secondhand LevoSL buyer here. From the comments and tone of everyone replying here, I'm assuming everyone here also only buys cars brand new? lol I've only ever bought used cars, and I've had good luck over 11 vehicles. And because of people's fears of a scary used car/bike, if you buy new you...

okay now I have to up my airtag game. TY for the ideas :) Do you use the Muc off holder with cushcore?

Steve_sordy has it right. Anyone in security will tell you that a layered defense is the way to go. I have an auto-closing garage door so I’ll never leave it open. Floor and wall anchors inside the garage. Solid bump proof side door. Same NY noose chain , and a hiplock d1000. Bikes locked down...

That looks quite trick! How do you deal with bar oil seeping out?

TLDR: If you would like to see class1 ebikes allowed on mountain bike trails, now is the time to act! Please take 15min and submit your feedback. You can read the the full document here: Box Project site: Forest Service You can give input here: US Forest Service NEPA Projects Home Guidelines...

@mart1nn search the forum on FF vs SL. There have been quite a few threads on the topic... I've posted my own story several times. I went from Stumpjumper to Levo to SL. The FF is a pig. You'll definitely notice the extra 10 pounds. You say you mostly ride solo and are hoping to find a group to...

This right here is why I traded in my Levo for a Levo SL.

Some decent prices on bikes. Address listed in Houston, TX. thanks!

I have a gen1 SL, and am considering getting my son a used gen1 SL so he can ride with me. He's 13 and growing fast... thinking of getting him a size M (height-wise he's right between size S and M), but I think he'll do better going from his 26" to a 27.5 vs up to 29". I've been reading posts...

I just received this: I didn’t realize this was a problem. Does anyone know how much impact this has on the battery? I often fully charge my SL.

I had a Levo and traded it for a Levo SL. There are lots of posts on the forum comparing the two. The two bikes exist for a reason and you need to sort what is going to work for you. I’d encourage you to rent/borrow/demo both if you can. For me I didn’t like the extra weight of the FF and...

hey what is an 'ebike lock' (as seen on your handlebars)? OEM or aftermarket and how does it work? TY!
