    What locks you using

    We both have Litelok's, and I put mine through the main frame not the wheel (as I don't have quick release). I never leave it more than half hour anyway. If someone wants it they will take it generally - if you haven't seen lock picking lawyer on YouTube it's quite an eye-opener!

    Let’s Be Careful Out There - Cannock Chase Mugging

    You really don't want to do that - as far as I am aware, Pepper Spray is classified as a firearm in the UK and possession carries a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison!

    Levo Gen 2 Got mugged with baseball bats Broke 5 ribs Need an answer

    Temazepam is a benzodiazepine, not morphine based. Benzos are brilliant drugs when used correctly and very nasty when abused (see: Valium, 1970's). They are also a muscle relaxant, so high doses can make you struggle to stand!

    Levo Gen 2 Got mugged with baseball bats Broke 5 ribs Need an answer

    They are not codeine based. They are morphine based. MS = Morphine Sulfate (sulphate to us Brits). Even worse!

    I hope they found the scumbags, that sounds horrific. And I really hope you get well and can get back to eMTBing! :)

    Levo Gen 2 Got mugged with baseball bats Broke 5 ribs Need an answer

    What? This is simply not true, unless you have some specific problem with them? Perhaps you misunderstood your doctor? The body is amazing and has incredible powers of recovery. It sounds like you have been through a really rough time, and I'm not surprised you want to get out and about, but...

    What does your range say ?

    Best I have ever had was 93 miles in Eco. Average in Eco is usually 60-ish miles. eMTB max is usually somewhere in the 40s. I have a 625 battery for my Bosch motor.

    ah yes, exactly the same way I ran my cabling except mine entered on RHS at the top of the frame.

    Dropper post for Stereo Hybrid 120 Pro?

    My dropper post arrived unexpectedly today! So I just finished fitting it. It was a bit of a faff as I have never fitted one before, but not too bad. The remote is on the left and the cable routed down the right side through the little housing which had a spare cut-out for a second cable...

    This has one of the greatest build-up and breakdowns in a song ever. I get goosebumps just thinking about it...

    Dropper post for Stereo Hybrid 120 Pro?

    Good to know. Got a photo? My dropper post has been delayed by a month now! Which means too late for my cycling holiday...

    Dropper post for Stereo Hybrid 120 Pro?

    hello I have ordered an X-Fusion Manic Dropper Seatpost (150mm/30.9) but haven't received it yet. I will look at fitting but may just get LBS to do it. I will let you know once it's fitted! I think it's internal routing and it cost £179.

    seat clamp

    I replaced mine as the original was faulty and wouldn't tighten properly. The one I got from Amazon for about £8 works perfectly. Not sure why it's on it's side!

    New Bike Time

    My partner had three orders cancelled until finally after ages searching we found a single small Turbo Levo at Tredz; it was the only small eMTB in stock at that time! So it took us four months to get one. Good luck! By the way I have a Cube Stereo hybrid 625 and it was about £3200 I think. I...

    Aaargh SRAM Eagle skipping gears on cassette

    Top stuff Mike, thanks. I can fix it at the top via the barrel adjuster, but then it won’t go into the smallest cog happily! I think I just need help from someone who knows what they are doing!

    Aaargh SRAM Eagle skipping gears on cassette

    Hi Fuzz cassette seems solid. I’m pretty sure now it just needs a delicate touch to it - not my clumsy inexperienced fingers!

    Aaargh SRAM Eagle skipping gears on cassette

    Hi all Thanks for all the replies, but I have given up. It shifts perfectly from the highest gear all the way up to the largest, but going the other way it jumps 2nd and grinds away on 3rd but after that is perfect. As I almost never use these gears that’s the way it’s going to stay until I...

    Aaargh SRAM Eagle skipping gears on cassette

    All that seems fine. It's probably just a combination of being a bit fiddly and me being out of bikes for 20 years!

    Aaargh SRAM Eagle skipping gears on cassette

    Not yet! I want to jump out of a window. It now has the new GX chain on and shifts smoothly between all gears apart from the two smallest ones which it hops between and graunches. Aaaaaaargh!!!!!! So I am going to take the chain off again, take the mech off, check the hanger alignment...
