    Levo Gen 3 Cascade Link 2022+ Levo Long Shock Kit

    This was great input. I took the plunge and the raised BB height is really noticeable. Which offset bushing did you order?

    Levo Gen 3 Cascade Link 2022+ Levo Long Shock Kit

    I'm curious to hear opinions from people who've had the long shock kit long enough for the honeymoon to truly wear off (say, bare minimum six months, preferably a year), especially people who ride advanced bike park trails. I feel like a lot of the reviews might have confirmation bias in the...

    Levo Gen 3 Hayes A4s on 2022 turbo levo comp possible?

    I can't remember which olives I used when I did the install, but I am using the Jagwire hose kit and haven't had any leaking.

    Project to enable Bosch + Garmin integration

    FWIW, I've made two attempts to contact lab.bike about shipping to the US, and they haven't replied at all. Edit: They eventually replied that they're working on a website update that will include international shipping to the US. The goal was to have it ready by the end of January but the...

    Project to enable Bosch + Garmin integration

    That's very unfortunate - is that mentioned in the video? I use walk from time to time, and on a 60lb double battery Wild, it absolutely comes in handy. Still, if I have to pick one or the other, personally the ANT+ LEV support is higher priority.

    What is the go to emtb these days?

    I haven't tried everything by a long shot, but the Levo and Wild are fantastic and pretty safe recommendations. The DJI motor is interesting, but you're looking at a 1.0 product and I'm skeptical about the frame/suspension. The Forbidden e-Dreadnought should be a beastly combo when it releases...

    Levo Gen 3 Hayes A4s on 2022 turbo levo comp possible?

    I need to chime in with my experience as well. I spent two nights struggling with that Hayes rear hose and independently came up with a nearly 100% identical approach. I started with Reverb barbs and spare brake hose, then eventually went to the Park internal routing kit and Buzzy's Slick Honey...

    Is falling off a new emtb always going to happen?

    Plenty of dabs, sometimes violently, more than my share of scars from pedal pins, but (knock on wood) never crashed on my eMTBs. I *really* hate crashing, so I ride quite conservatively.

    Comment by 'Gyre' in article 'Shimano EP801 and Bosch CX Race - drivetrain killers?'

    If you use turbo power in narrow switchbacks, things might get a little spicy and you'll rely on the brakes more in places you never would on a non-assisted bike. Aside from that I wouldn't worry too much about it. Just start with Eco mode and work your way up gradually and it will be a pretty...

    Comment by 'Gyre' in article 'The new 2025 Orbea Rise - my wish come true?'

    Really need to see some frameset-only options for Orbea to make the cost of entry more palatable.

    2023 Orbea Wild

    Caliper to axle is a lever, as is tread to axle. The ratio matters. See below: https://bikerumor.com/aasq-92-braking-force-vs-rotor-size-lever-leverage-more-hydraulic-brake-answers/

    Trail Animals

    Deer, bears, snakes, rabbits, bobcats. The best sighting was a condor while driving to the trailhead. No photo unfortunately.

    Advice for new eMTB owners that you wish someone had given you

    I don't know how it behaves. Still, I've heard that it's not ideal to endlessly trickle charge once you get to full, and you don't want to charge to full every time if your ride duration doesn't call for it.

    Advice for new eMTB owners that you wish someone had given you

    Get an outlet timer for your charger and try to set it to get just enough charge for your ride (or to get to a storage charge level around 50-60%) and no more.

    Comment by 'Gyre' in article 'The Mondraker Dune is back for 2024'

    I sent some inquiries to Mondraker and got a few details that may help anyone make an informed decision: Seatpost maximum insertion depth: Size S: 176mm Size M: 216mm Size L: 248mm Size XL: 282mm Also, per Mondraker support, "The bike is not intended to be used with rotors larger than 200mm"...

    Only on XL. Medium gets 150.

    150mm seatpost drop on an enduro bike with 170/180mm travel doesn't sound right to me.

    Workaround for shipping restrictions on a NEAT frameset?

    R2-Bike has a tempting deal on a Neat frameset if I could find a way to get it in the US without getting tagged with VAT: MONDRAKER Frame 29" Neat Carbon RR SL | Carrera Blue, 7.056,30 € The issue is they won't ship to the US (most likely manufacturer imposed restrictions), Mondraker refuses to...

    Mastermind TCU - monitor main/extender levels without app?

    Anyone figured out how to see the individual charge levels of the main / extender battery on an SL bike without pulling out the phone and using the old app? I can't find any display option that does it on the TCU display itself, and I don't think the LEV+ ANT feature transmits that information...
