Hi, I’m after some advice. I’m suffering from lack of funds due to this virus going around!!! I bought a Levo Expert 2020 last September and almost immediately upgraded to Fox Factory Forks, shocks and seat post during those heady days of having a job. Also to Hope wheels. I’m thinking of...

Interesting! I was finding it a little too easy until I opted out of the uplift at Bike Park Wales and ride up each time in eco - felt the burn for days afterwards

Such an insightful response from everyone. I agree, why bother with a clockwork when we have these incredible machines that you can dial in various grades of assistance at the touch of a button. I too had a hip op and went for an ebike for ease after a long break. My last bike was a 29er hard...

Hi there, I’m interested to know if e mtb owners ever ride manual mtb bikes for fitness, lightness etc. Or is it a case of once “e”, always “e”. I don’t mean commuting, most of us have an old manual to get to and from work but do any of you switch between the 2? Would love to hear your thoughts...

Re locks, I don’t know where you’re based but I am in Central London and I have had 3 mopeds stolen in broad daylight where they have used angle grinders. No lock is theft proof. I would take your pride and joy inside with you wherever possible and lock. I use this and apparently the square I...

I stupidly didn’t buy my 2020 Levo expert from them but I have had it spec’d within an inch of it’s life by Chris. He really goes that extra mile and has a very dry sense of humour and a twinkle in his eye. I really like him and they are by far the best shop around. A 2.5 hour round trip for me...

I’ve heard chains needing to replaced at the first complimentary service, 10 hours worth of riding!

Thank you, appreciated

I was just asking for his email?

I just use normal Muck Off, spray liberally over everything, brush in and stand waaaaaaay back with a very very fine hose. I then dry off and apply a water dissipating spray which brings the frame up noice, oil the chain and boom. Done. Never had any probs. I do wash it the day after when the...

Is that his email (plus .com??) I’ve been trying to get in touch with them but no luck so far

I’m 2 months in and absolutely love it but I have changed the tyres and gone tubeless, the thing was unrideable before and now rolls a lot better. I don’t think there’s anything else I’d change right now but ask me in a couple of months. Do it, you won’t regret ut

Alright alright I get it ? in my defence though, I LOVE the bike ok? I just wanted advice on the treacle drag and replacing tyres for better rollers. I’ll zip it now ?
