Hello. I'm now 66 yrs old. I bought a 2020 Turbo Levo Alloy model with a 500w battery in August of 2020. It's the XL size. I'm 6'-2" and about 210 lbs. I live a bit lower in elevation than you, but do ride the higher elevations as well. For example a couple weeks ago I spent a few days at...

Where in the world is the camera located? It's almost as if a little drone is right beside you - haha. And I think that marmot got the scare of its life when it darted out in front of you. Shocked you too, eh? :eek:

I have a gopro 9 mounted on the handlebar of my Turbo Levo. There's a mountain close to where I live, named Mt Conkle, which I really enjoy riding. Lots of single track, and lots of options for climbing or descending for those who want to challenge themselves or those who have a more sedate...

I don't think you'll be able to accomplish your goal by cutting the seatpost. For the short term you could limit its travel by using a bit of paracord or small diameter steel cable and loop it through the seat rails and then down to the dropper post tightening bolt (or something else fixed on...

I put a 170 mm Lyrik Ultimate on my 2020 Levo - it came with the RL Gold 150 mm fork. It was confidence inspiring with the new fork, especially on the downhill, and we all know that gravity really loves these heavier ebikes, so fast speeds were no longer the thing of nightmares. Uphill or...

I purchased a new 2020 Turbo Levo in July of that year. A few weeks ago, heading into winter and thinking that I wouldn't be riding much more, I had the chainring, cassette and chain replaced. That's the original parts that lasted till I had about 6000 km's on the mileage counter. I cleaned...

I've put 6000 km's on a 2020 Turbo Levo, with a Brose 2.1. In about 12 months of riding. Nary a problem with the motor in all those km's. As I've read in some of the previous posts by more knowledgeable folks, I'm accustomed to riding with a higher cadence, and that riding style apparently is...

I've been in similar situations with my Turbo Levo, and I'd narrowed it down to some grit on the battery charge port/connector. I'd spray it with some contact cleaner occasionally. And finally, what has solved this completely, is my purchase of the amygos bottom bracket protector. Not only...

2020 Turbo Levo, now up to a bit over 4500 km's. Lots of gravel trails, not much on asphalt, and I'm not a serious mountain biker; although I like going fast I am not fond of really steep downhills so I generally slow down a bit - I'm fearful of wiping out and ending up in a distressful state...

Hey there - where did you get that little frame pack nestled up front of the shock? What's the name of it? And is that the stock saddle? I don't think I've ever seen one like it, with that sharply dropping nose. I'm envious of the colour as well. In my opinion, Giant has some really nice...

So after about 8 months of ownership - the basic Turbo Levo with the 500 watt battery - I've done my longest ride with it, today. About a 35 km climb, up a rail/trail here in the Okanagan - Kettle Valley Rail Trail - it's a 2% grade (max) from my house, almost the lowest point in my town...

About 3 months ago I asked in one of these forums, what other mtn cyclists were wearing for hand protection. I asked because I had just broken a knuckle in my right (dominant) hand doing some work around the home (nothing at all related to cycling - I was doing something with an electric...

Hello all - fantastic resource, my compliments to the website administrator. OK, so it wasn't a bicycle related injury, but the aftermath of an accident has me thinking about the consquences of coming off my bicycle and damaging my hand again. I was drilling a piece of material and the bit got...

That seems expensive to me. Easier and cheaper to install the Blevo app on your phone, and it gives you all the functionality this hardware promises.

Add another one to your list. Purchased the 2020 Turbo Levo first week in July. Had the new firmware installed about 10 days ago. Didn't cost me anything for that, but I did buy a new pair of flat pedals while I was in my LBS, so I did spend some money - hah! I've also discovered the motor...
