Where did you get the v3 bushings and bolts. I contacted Santa Cruz. Took them a week to respond with voice mails and emails sent. They told me they dont have any. My local dealers can't get them either. I have a Vala with less than 700 miles and 2.5 months old. I am in Truckee California near...

Agreed I did the same today. I would like to have 5 options for eco on big days. I rarely use eco or turbo

Just got out on my new Vala today. Only 300 miles and 3 weeks in. Update came through on my android this am. Dual updates, one watts and one torque. Emtb+ , I quickly changed to minus three on dynamic and the surge is mostly gone. Traction is pretty solid. I went to 95 nm and 700 watts max. It's...

Keep on posted on motor, I am curious how it compares. Everyone I know that ordered a Bullit is still waiting. My understanding is that the peak torque is close to the same 85-90nm but the Levo torque curve is much bigger. That being said I had nearly 3,000 miles on Gen2 and another 735 if I...

Good choices, beautiful bike. Those are my go to front and rear tires, though I am running stock for now. Did you go Enve bars too, they have a nice bend, I have some on another bike. Lastly, can I give you my address to send the stock drivetrain and dropper?

Wait what, a XC race with a Fox 38 on an ebike? I think I am confused on many levels. Anyway, yes, Fox gives very ballpark numbers as a baseline starting point. It really depends on preference and sag. Some like 15% and some 20%. I do run less PSI than baseline chart by 5 PSI, doing that...

For what it's worth, probably not much... I have never gotten along well with Fox. I am 140 lbs or less. However, the new 38 on Gen3 Pro feels really really good. Still tweaking and only 1 week and 150 miles in. Previously if I ran lower air it would pack up in the mid stroke and would have to...

It doesn't work particularly amazing but it does work. Below the SWAT tool, it comes with a quick link that it attached via magnet. You unscrew the headset bottom cap and pull the whole thing out.

PS After further examination Pro does have the chain tool

I just picked my pro up today, color is much better in person. It's very good, picked my Pro up today and did a good 20 mile ride. Color looks much better in person than on the internet. Compared to Expert on first real ride... easier to turn in especially on tight switchbacks, more stable at...

OK, you are right I don't have enough ride time on Gen3 to make the above statement with absolute certainty. I could change my mind after I get my Gen3. My initial impressions are based on very limited Gen3 ride time. It feels like a different bike, not necessary a pure continuation of the...

My buddy is still waiting on Bullit he ordered and paid for in November. Specialized occasionally releases bikes on their website for ordering even though the dealers are getting them very slowly. I ordered an S3 Pro and it shipped yesterday. My kidney sale is going well, market is up for...

Agreed. I don't get along with Fox 36 forks either. I have had 3 Fox 36 forks. I am only 140 lbs and can't get full travel even with zero tokens and low air pressure (sort of). If I bring the pressure down to 34 psi I can get the travel but then I am into the middle of the stroke and it sucks...

It's normal I have a 2020 Stumpy AXS is "camouflage black" and that's how the layup looks on the entire bike. I actually like it.

PS both the carbon and aluminum paint gets chipped easily. This is after 2 weeks.

I had an aluminum one for 230 miles 3 weeks and now have carbon expert 360 miles 4 weeks. I had about heat "issue" prior as well but have NOT seen a difference in heat with the carbon. I was curious so I periodically have checked temps. Since purchase of Emtb I have sold my gravel bike and...

Good call. I switched to a Race Face which is the same as my fox transfer I have on my Pivot 5.5. A shim was used due to the diameter, doesn't slip and adress's my biggest complaint with the bike. PS Pivot 5.5 has only been ridden a few times since this purchase.

Swapped out for Fox Transfer/ Race Face post like my other bikes. Happy.

Stock rear wheel on expert done after 5 days of riding. I suspect in part due to poor tensioning from factory. After flat spot I noticed spokes are all very loose. I am 145 lbs and haven't ruined a wheel in 15 years and we have quite a few bikes that get quite a bit of use. Oh well not totally...
