Left my wife's Cube upside down on seat and handlebars whilst I took the wheel to the bike shop. Came back to find my daughter's miniature dachshund has decided the bike will be better if she eats through both the hydraulic front brake cable, and the cable connecting the controls and display to...

what things do people use to carry bare essentials for trips (spare tube, tubeless plugs, pump)? - links to good bags/under saddle/on frame carriers. or suitable rucksack etc welcomed. I have a good backpack with waist water bladder, but don't always want even that bulk with me.....

Having seen the benefits of tubeless recently (30km ride which my wife had to push 4 km to the bike shop at halfway having run over a thorn on the towpath - and then push 3km at the end omn the way back for the same reason) I've just converted her bike to tubeless too. But how often do people...

Is there any way of getting and installing US firmware into a UK bike because I, er, may be going to the US..... :)

has anyone experimented with attaching a second battery to the downtube? Seems to me it would fit there, though holding it securely might be a challenge. Duct tape?! closed cell foam between the two and tight velcro strapping would probably work though. Be nicer than in a backpack.....

as above: crank puller and castle nut as per embn video, or will crank arms just unscrew and motor cover then undoes?

my LBS has honoured their side of a deal we did and are offering me the 700W battery for a very good price. Now, since I've hardly had the to actually ride the damn thing, I have no good metrics for deciding whether I need a second battery, but I'm assuming it will generally be a useful thing...

As above, really. Finally managed to get the multitool out from under the bottle cage, but some people report having a chain tool in the headset.....

Does the steerer tube use a star nut on the Levo Comp?

Just a quick note to save others going through what I went through..... Decided to switch to tubeless. Using the "insert inner tube, pump up to seat one side of rim, break bead on one side, remove tube, add sealant, use track pump and hope", it took about 2 hours, two lots of lost sealant, and...

As an emts newbie I've been consuming emts content from all over - and the embn show was one of them - however, they seem to have gone quiet recently - anyone know whether they are still going or what has happened to them?

I'm not a fan of the look of mudguards, but in wet weather my face and back seem to disagree. Been looking at a range of options, including Muckynutz and the one reviewed by Rob. Trying these (yes I will cut off the ends of the cable ties) A good fit on the bike. And at £3 each from...

So, what's the bulky bit at the bottom of the Levo bottle cage? Had thought it might be integrated tool kit but can't seem to open/access it..... !

for those who have taken motor covers off, is there any spare space in there to fit a small gps tracker, so I can tap off the battery too?

Following on from a previous thread here, here's a solution I knocked up in the garage just now, out of some spare conduit and wood. Large level beam holds bike steady, front fork goes into conduit with thru-axle bolt to secure it. Raised up so that fork ends don't scuff on the wood. Beam cut...

Decided I'd protect my Levo with Invisiframe, and whilst the lbs would have done it, they'd have charged quite a bit (>£100) which with the plastic invisiFrame itself costing about £80, was too much. So I ordered the kit and did it myself. A few photos follow to demonstrate the experience, and...

A number of people have mentioned that they often get called out for 'cheating' - as they go quickly up the boring parts of trails! - and i'd be interested to hear of good ripostes to this..... "I'm really fast downhill, so I might as well be uphill as well" might work, if you're actually any...

The older Brose motor had a USB port on it - does anyone know if the new one does? If so I'll look to run a cable somewhere to give me usb power near the handlebars.....

What front and rear guards have people found to be effective in stopping you getting a face full of muddy water and a striped backside? MuckyNutz used to be my goto but are there better options now? Seen the review of the Crud XL but it seems bulky around the forks and a strange gap in it too...

Picked up my Levo Comp in Nice Blue. Great - and I mean GREAT - colour: had only seen it on the website and it was less clear quite what colour it was - it's a gloss, vibrant blue, offset well with the black lettering. Not stealth :) Frame colour detail: Had a quick ride around the local...
