    Levo Gen 4 Display on Levo 4th Gen

    Being partially color blind could present a problem. Unfortunately, I don't know if the font colors can be changed. Eco is blue, Trail is a "forest green", Turbo is orange and Auto is a "lime green". Do you have trouble with all of them or only some?

    Please provide overview of different Galfer Pads for SRAM Maven Ultimate Brakes

    I'm running the purples on my Levo 4 with the Maven Bronze brakes. The purples definitely allow for much better modulation on the Mavens. With the stock pads, the rear brake locked up way too easily and the front was very touchy in loose/rocky conditions. The purples are also silent whereas the...

    Some clouds rolled in tonight to enhance our sunset.

    Trail Animals

    Just know that in reality, a coyote is much faster than a roadrunner (40mph vs 20mph). However, the coyote is quite inept when it comes to technologies involving wheels, rocket motors and anvils so, the bird does have that going for him. 😁

    I like to flip my bikes over to work on them BMX style, and this activates/ damages my e-bike controllers. Ideas?

    Bring an extra water bottle (maybe some dawn dish soap too) so you can clean the rocks/sticks before you set your grips on them. ;)

    What did you buy your ebike this week?

    A new cage for the derailleur. The original got bent and I probably made it worse trying to bend it back into its original shape (or what I thought it’s original shape was). The shifting in the higher gears wasn’t working properly. All good now.

    Stop being practical. Don’t you know, simple problems call for complex solutions.

    Industry Veteran Hans Rey Calls for Clearer E-Bike Definitions

    They don’t have enough people to enforce the laws that actually reduce violent crime, I wouldn’t worry about the “bicycle police” coming after anyone. This is just more stupid legislation to shut-up the trail “Karens” and take money away (under the guise of safety) from taxpayers foolish enough...

    What new features would you like to see...

    Arizonans when the temperature drops below 21C (look at me being all metricy).

    That’s a bummer my friend. I remember that see quite well in the forests in Eastern Washington. It’ll come back but, it takes much longer in the drier climates. Stay away from the burned tree branches when riding, they won’t have any flex to them and will easily tear through shirts and skin.

    Holy crap, you’re right! I wonder what else is hidden in that bike. Maybe there’s a complete bike stand that will render my “Spanish Inquisition” rack unnecessary. 🧐

    Authorities are waking up...

    Everything that is fun is illegal in California. Also, everything made by humans is “known to the State of California to cause cancer”. Their politicians are saving their constituents. To be fair, virtually all politicians are useless.

    You can take my fork but you’ll never take my FREEDOOOOOMMMMM! Mr. Wallace got his first lower fork service via my medieval bike rack. It went almost perfectly. Wife - Are you done? Me - Yup. Wife - That took a while. Me - It was my first time. Wife - What’s this (holds up sag o-ring) Me -...

    Unfortunately, the garage windows face south so it gets toasty in the afternoon. I need to grab one of those bucket mister fans and then I’ll be doing the lower fork service in the morning before everything heats up.

    Need new EMTB Advice

    You should look into the Aventon EMTB models. They have two models, are reasonably priced and should work well for you needs. However, check with bike shops in your area to see if they can perform warranty work should anything arise during the warranty period. Good luck with your search.

    This is why some of us need a removable battery. This is inside the garage and it’s only 108 outside today.
