Hi Guys ... I was an early adopter of the LSS on my 2019 Levo Expert and it's been going strong for many many months and no issues - huge thanks to jd_3d. I also have a 2018 S-Works Levo with no speed limit due to a software hack/solution. We've ridden the two bikes side by side and even though...

I played with the Expert & Sworks this AM. I can confirm the magnet gluing was the problem, as when I used the good planetary gear/magnet combo and it worked well on the S-works. There appears to be a *very* slight clearance issue on the s-works but overall no problem. I still think fitting a...

Page 4 of this thread the creator jd_3d has the steps listed. Have a read of the other posts as they cover some of the experiences people have had. In my view only do it if you are happy to tinker around, I am not techy either but I must say its been fun to play around with the bike and the LSS...

My new LSS parts arrived yesterday and we fitted to the Levo S-Works. Observations as follows: 1. The new parts fit very well to the S-works smaller hub, I was expecting the sun gear to slip around the hub a little but it was reasonably tight. 2. I think I made a mistake and used too much glue...

My second and third LSS have been shipped and should arrive soon and then I will be able to share the experience with my Expert, and my two buddies Levos (S-works and Comp). The original LSS with o-rings on the expert has been flawless so far after many kilometers on and offroad.

I've been on the rough stuff and the LSS is behaving well on the Levo Expert...rides the same as before only much more fun. I used a bit of a mix of those o-rings as there were only a few of each. The key one that I think worked under the Sun Gear was inside diameter 10.77 and outside diameter...

OK thanks for answering question. Re the Sworks - I think the hub size for the S-Works and Expert are the same (not 100% sure though as don't have calipers)..so the sun gear and cover are loose on the hub. Sorry, I did not inspect frame clearance on the Sworks.

An update. 1) First I tried the LSS on my friends Levo S-Works and standard LSS does not fit - I think it has the same axle diameter as the Levo Expert though I didn't have calipers to check. 2) I bought some thin electrical tape and a bunch of assorted o-rings to fit the LSS to the Levo...

That's awesome jd_3d, I'll order Levo expert parts now. I am getting a total of three LSS as I have two mates who are keen (one with Comp and one with S-work). Is your understanding that the S-works Levo is fine with your original design? If you are not sure I can try and fit to his Sworks bike...

Sorry Mhugdoc, are you saying the o-rings aren't working that well?

Also just on the subject of top speed - I've been messing around with an unrestricted 2018 Levo (set to max 75kmh via BLevo). My experience is that getting much higher than 40kph on the flats is unrealistic unless you change the cassette. The reason is that you end up with a very high cadence...

Thanks Mhugdoc, Those washers sound great, I couldn't find #13 on Lowes site, I am in Australia, do you have the dimensions so I can try and find them locally? Thanks in advance.

Previous post updated. The Sun Gear is really loose, I am away from the bike now but guessing 1mm gap around sun gear versus hub. Cover is similarly loose. I'll try the electric tape plan, but potentially for these hubs we'd need a smaller hole for the Cover and Sun Gear. (Edit - I will try...

(updated for more accurate naming of parts) First-time poster, hello to all. Reading this thread has been great fun and thanks to JD_3d for all this incredible work. So my LSS arrived yesterday, looked great out of the box and there was no need for any sanding or filing as far as I could see...
