    Dropper post upgrade on Trek Rail 7

    Thanks, I was actually able to use the same cable. That is until I put a nasty bend in it, putting the dropper back in straight. The new cable was probably the way to go, though. I quickly learned that my new dropper needed to sit up a few centimeters to clear the bottom of the seat tube...

    Dropper post upgrade on Trek Rail 7

    I picked up a Oneup dropper and a Wolf Tooth remote. I haven't pulled anything apart yet, and was wondering if I can use the same cable that came with the stock dropper post and remote?

    108 t hub upgrade question Rail 7

    Many thanks to the this thread, I had a stubborn end cap that took 30 minutes to remove. But once that was off the rest was easy.

    Help with an weird injury

    Sorry guys, I left you all hanging on this. It turns out a friend of mine knows a wrist specialist. I went and he took a look. He said I compressed my TFCC(Triangular FibroCartilage Complex) when I took the hit. He said it's quite common in sports where you can impact and compress the wrist. I...

    Help with an weird injury

    The last few times I've gone out when I get back home and in the days that follow I have sharp pain in my outer wrist. It started a few weeks back when I miss judged a log and my fork fully compress when hitting it. I went to the doctor and he said nothing was broken, but I had some tissue...

    What date ???

    We were in luck our LBS had a 2022 Rail 5 sitting in the shop a few weeks back. It wasn't my size but fit my wife well, so she has a new ride!

    Rail sizing

    My wife and I are both 182cm. We rented an L and M Rail a few months back. We each road both and she ended up liking the L and I loved the M.

    Warranty on used Rail 7

    I found a local guy selling his 2021 Rail 7, it has 122miles on it and is in great shape. But down the road, if something goes wrong will Trek honor the warranty for the 2nd owner?

    Levo SL Gen 1 2020 Levo SL Comp, it a good deal?

    Talked to the LBS again and they said they could sell me a demo Levo Comp for the same price as the SL, so $6,000. With a full warranty and all that comes with it. I saw the demo while I was in the shop, it looked in great shape. Not sure how many hours are on the battery, but will check...

    Levo SL Gen 1 2020 Levo SL Comp, it a good deal?

    All fair points. Thanks for the help guys. I ran over to the LBS and road the SL a bit ago. I can see and feel the difference between the 2 now.

    Levo SL Gen 1 2020 Levo SL Comp, it a good deal?

    Thanks, Mikerb, Yep, I compared the two at the LBS a few weeks back. I didn't ride the SL, though, the Comp I road, and liked it quite a bit. On the other hand, the SL seemed a bit limiting for the price, battery/range. My only other experience has been with a Trek Rail 7 that I had for the...

    Levo SL Gen 1 2020 Levo SL Comp, it a good deal?

    There is a 2020 Levo SL Comp for sale locally. The owner says it's lightly used only a few rides on easy terrain. I was considering the new Levo comp for my first EMTB, but if the bike is a good deal I might consider it. What's a good price for the bike? They are asking $6000. How are the...

    Joined up a few days back..new to the EMTB scene

    Hi everyone. I've been riding for more than 30 years but took several breaks when my kids were born. I just started riding again and rented a Trek Rail 7 last weekend. I'm hooked now; it was so much more fun riding the ebike. I can't wait to go again. Now I'm looking for any excuse to drive...
