    Levo Gen 3 How bad are Turbo Levo Comp stock wheels

    Still on original wheels on my 3 and 1/2 year old 2020, running tubeless. Rims have numerous dings but no problem with sealing. I had a spoke break once but didn't even notice until I was checking the bike, spoke change etc quick and easy. changed the bearings once and was delighted with the...

    Tyre sealant

    I carry a Stan's DART (Dual Action Repair for Tubeless). It has a kind of chimney sweep's brush with a barb for positive engagement to plug the hole, and a coating that reacts with ammonia sealent (e.g. Stans) to bond it all together. Not cheap, but the one time I have used it was to seal a...

    Rear derailleur issues 2019 Levo Expert (SRAM X1)

    Yes, outer is one piece. Try and cut the inner as cleanly as possible to avoid damage to the liner of the outer.

    Tubeless

    This has been discussed loads of times. In brief, you can use a CO2 canister but STAN'S advises letting all the CO2 out and replacing with air (less than 1% CO2, I believe). Hot tip is to seat the tyre using a tube, pop one side, replace tube with valve and carry on. STAN'S is latex by the way...
