    Will a bigger rotor help? + showing off my bike ?

    Wow thanks for all the info and the install link! Those look really good and you’re right the pricing is good. I found them in a local Canadian shop for 329+ tax w/free delivery. Was wondering about this SRAM Guide RE’s I think they’re called. they are a beefy 4 piston caliper as well designed...

    Will a bigger rotor help? + showing off my bike ?

    Thanks very much! I’m wondering if I should do the rotors or just skip to it and do four piston calipers. Original Shimano rotors seem a bit pretty pricey. Good tip on the pad cleaning I will definitely figure out how to remove those and clean them!

    Will a bigger rotor help? + showing off my bike ?

    Hi guys I’ve got a 2019 Specialized Rockhopper Pro check out the pic in the park by the hill. Looking for a bridge will add one if I can! Actually I just remembered that was more of a Reddit thing (bike-on-bridge) but what the heck I added another picture ? The brakes seem really weak to...

    Levo Gen 2 *%#^#^ Creaking Sound driving me batty! ?

    I loosened the QR and unscrewed the axel. It has a light coat of grease on it, *I think* it’s enough? I can’t find my grease, I only have finishing line ceramic wet lube and forkboost lube.

    Thanks, I’ll check it out. This thing is driving me crazy. I almost wish I didn’t change my shock, that’s when it all started. ?

    Levo Gen 2 *%#^#^ Creaking Sound driving me batty! ?

    Okay I thought I solved it but it’s still creaking. ? It’s ever since I swapped the rear shock. Only seems to do it under hard peddling especially if I stand up on the pedals the creaks on the left and right stroke. It really sounds like it’s coming from the bottom bracket. I don’t know any...

    Levo Gen 2 Fitment question: New Fox DPS to replace Rockshox Deluxe Select

    I’m really liking the Fox. The rockshox wasn’t bad but I wanted compression adjustability on the fly, and the firm setting allows me to fly up long steep hills much easier. It’s almost a lockout; the suspension barely moves in that setting. I do find it bottoming out more than the thr SRAM...

    Levo Gen 2 *%#^#^ Creaking Sound driving me batty! ?

    That clicking is intense, good find there! I’ll check my fasteners for sure. At least my shock hardware is okay as it’s newly installed. I think it’s my praxis crank bolt on left side…

    Levo Gen 2 *%#^#^ Creaking Sound driving me batty! ?

    Hi everyone, Today I just noticed a creaking sound which *I think* is coming from the bottom bracket. Update: My wife said it’s coming from the rear shock and it needs some lube! Who am I to argue?! I can stand on the pedals with the brakes on a rock bike and forth and each “side” will creak...

    Levo Gen 2 2020 Levo caught in a rain storm Now it Turns On By Itself

    This is been an active and interesting thread, thanks for updating. I had the flashing police lights as well with my damp TCU. I tried to attach a small video clip but I don’t think this forum accepts them. Glad to hear you booked in the shop appt, only so much DIY you can do without parts.

    Levo Gen 2 Fox 36 black oil/grease

    Good idea thanks! *** does anyone know the size of the two studs? M5 M6 M7 etc? I’m pretty sure the air side and the damper side are different? Trying to avoid going to the local hardware store the pandemic lineups are crazy here… as I’m sure they are everywhere. Was thinking to order up an...

    Levo Gen 2 Fox 36 black oil/grease

    Yes that’s what I’ve been reading thank you very much. Has anyone gotten the lower legs loose without the Fox damper removal tool? I did my Rockshox by threading back in the bolts and tapping on them. With the fox their are studs you need to thread something on. Maybe regular M? Nuts would...

    Levo Gen 2 Fox 36 black oil/grease

    I bought my fox 36 fork used and don’t know the hours of use. I’m guessing 50 but I’m not sure. No real signs of wear, no chips or scratches etc. Maybe it’s time for service as the fork is oozing a black oil/grease out of the left stanchion Has anyone experienced this? Shouldn’t the lube be a...

    Levo Gen 2 Fitment question: New Fox DPS to replace Rockshox Deluxe Select

    And some washers and a nut lol just kidding I know you’re right but during the pandemic it’s a bit of a hassle getting hardware so I ordered the cheapest one with the quickest service on Amazon. I did a test fit without the old hardware without the Rockshox bush and in it’s a super tight fit...

    Levo Gen 2 Fitment question: New Fox DPS to replace Rockshox Deluxe Select

    Hey guys I’m having a slight issue getting the top mount of the fox shock to fit my 2020 Turbo Levo Aluminum frame. The Rockshox has a bronze bushing pressed in with a black metal sleeve into plastic shoulders that go over it. (It’s in the picture above the fox shock with the bolt beside it)...
