All cycling in Spain is illegal under the emergency laws, unless you are going to and from work. Just saying. Be sensible.

As eMTB's reward spinning so well, clipless is the winner.

Hope you recover quickly Dobby. Your efforts to learn to jump are a great inspiration to help my tired 65 year old legs to try and get both wheels off the ground on my newly acquired Turbo Levo. Learning new techniques & skills are what keeps making life worth living. Especially at my age.

I can't vouch for the number of single-track trails round els Ports, as I'm far too old to risk my breaky bits downhilling like I was still 20. The hills here top out at 1,400 metres, so there are much longer runs up north in the Pyrenees. BTW, I recommend that you visit the Priorat wine...

About 500 metres from our house in the village to a 23k uphill 4x4 track that takes you up about 1,000 metres to the Three Kings viewpoint. So called as you can see Valencia, Aragon & Catalunya from there.

Hi from Southern Catalunya. Good choice of bike & colour. Just like mine. :) Enjoy & try not to spend a fortune on goodies for it. (Actually that is half the fun).

Most trails in Spain are 4x4 tracks, as that is how the locals get around. You can ride pretty much anywhere that isn't specifically marked otherwise, or fenced off (no trespass laws). I'm 2 hours south of Barcelona, have a large Turbo Levo 2020 & the els Ports natural park behind our village...

Upgradebikes have one in stock at 2pm UK time 6th Feb. I just bought the other one they had. :)

ShotCut. Free, very capable, can edit and save in a millionty formats, bit of a learning curve, but YouTube is your friend.

The + button only works if you are in eco mode, where it puts you in Sports mode. Another push does not put you in Turbo mode (Well it doesn't on mine). You have to push the S turbo button for that. The - button does step you down through both modes to eco again.

Surely the top speed cut-off is set independently of wheel size to enable different country ebike speed limits. The same sized wheels are used in all the countries with different limits.

Same here. Showing 2100mm in Mission Control on my 2020 Levo Comp. Booking a fix for next week when the shop mechanic gets back from his holiday.

Much, De res, gaudeix de la teva bici. PB

Ola, i bon dia. I'll make a guess that you are based north of Barcelona, but if you are further south, I'm in Mas de Barberans, south of Tortosa just settling in with my Turbo Levo Comp, looking forward to some longer rides in the els Ports area. PB

Yes, I bought my Turbo Levo Comp at the beginning of the year having only ridden my wife's 3 year old ladies Cube emtb when she first got it. As I had my knees in my armpits, that doesn't really count as a test ride. Very happy with the purchase.
