    Help needed on platform hitch rack for full size pickup please!

    I have had my 1up on my 08 Subaru outback, my 04 forester, my mom's 14 outback and my dad's 02 F350 powerstroke.. All with 2 Levos on it with no issues.

    Levo damaged freehub and seized wheel bearing

    DT350 and be done. Best bang of buck around. Don't bother with the 54t ratchet, the 36t is plenty fine enough for an ebike and gives you bigger teeth with more meat on them. I have seen people destroy 54t ratchets on regular bikes, so definitely possible on a Levo.. I actually take my 54t out...

    Spoke specs for 2020 Turbo Levo S Works please...

    There is the part number for the spoke.. As mentioned earlier, it's a standard 282mm DT Competition Race spoke that butts from 2.0mm down to 1.6 and back to 2.0mm. We don't usually keep those super butted spokes in stock at out shop, but keep 10mm increments of the 2.0mm-1.8mm -2.0mm ones in...

    For Sale (BIKE) 2019 Specialized Turbo Levo Comp 504wh batteries: 600

    Moving this up! Up to 10 or so charges on 1 battery and 3 on the other! But my 700w batties are one their way!

    Which one 2020 Levo or Comp

    Comp.. All day.. For 1k more you get -700w battery.. This is a $1100 battery to upgrade later and you will want to upgrade with the 500w -Lyrik fork instead of the RS 35. Way better fork overall. -4 pot breaks in the rear vs a 2 pot brake.. It actually kinda pisses me off that they would try...

    Asphalt commuting tyres - recommendations

    Hookworms in 26" were absolutely stupid heavy.. I run Specialized Compound Controls on my slick wheelset on my Levo.

    Manual MTB’s?

    I still ride my analog bikes quite frequently.. I am probably well under the average age of EMTB riders at 27. I am an accomplished DH and CX racer. My Levo doesn't really replace my regular bikes as much as it replaces my time on my KTM. The Levo is super awesome for the days I want 2x the...

    This is the rumor I heard.

    U.S. Turbo Levo Pricing - Discounts?

    The 2020 Levo is not 10% off. The 2019 is. Between the bigger battery and the lyrik fork, you want the 2020 over the 2019. And we actually don't make as much when customers use click and collect. We still would rather an in store purchase.

    U.S. Turbo Levo Pricing - Discounts?

    Exactly... I am a trained Helicopter mechanic..I had years where in the summer 4 months, I made 3x my bike shop annual wage as a whole. But I couldn't get away from the bike industry. I like it too much... But a very common occurrence for me to doubt if it's really worth the pennies I make.

    It would be super cool to work at a dealer where you pay the customer to take a bike.. Unfortunately that's not super sustainable for our shop.

    U.S. Turbo Levo Pricing - Discounts?

    If they got theirs at $4999 then they had a inside bro deal through a rep, or the shop bought those bikes on Employee purchase to get them cheaper and then sold them to the customers to save margins (which is not cool), or they were test bikes that the shop had used and discounted to move...

    Bike park helmets...

    I was of the mindset that if I want a full face, I want a real full face. I have a stack of 5 Bell Full 9 carbon DH helmets along with a moto 9. The first convertable that I bought was a Bell Super DH and I only did it because it carried the DH certification. I have seen a few crashes...

    U.S. Turbo Levo Pricing - Discounts?

    Believe me I know. Our house we are in now, we tried to buy 6 years ago. Back then it sold for 120k (we were under 20 and couldn't afford any more). We finally bought it last year for 300k and it had 3 sight unseen full price cash offers from Cali buyers.. And that was a good deal for what real...

    Yeah, getting me into Cali is hard enough, getting me into Socal is probably never going to happen!

    U.S. Turbo Levo Pricing - Discounts?

    You seem rad.. Where in CA you around? If it's close to my norcal family, I'd love to come play ebikes sometime when I am down next. We haven't had motor issues like that in any of ours yet, but sweet to see someone has the depth of knowledge and experience on them outside Of specialized.

    U.S. Turbo Levo Pricing - Discounts?

    As AL Bonita said, the margins on Turbos is absolutely terrible. Like a shop couldn't stay open by selling just turbos. So we guard our margins pretty tight. If we have 2019s left over, we will do 10% off to move old inventory, but otherwise we stick pretty close to MSRP unless it's a long time...

    Best brakes for E bike?

    Something is wrong if think Shimano brakes modulate too much and you think SRAM brakes are too snappy.. Shimanos are know for ultimate on/off power while SRAM Codes have way way more modulation. My Code RSCs modulate and my Saint/Zee brakes are the definition of on/off. 200 rotors F+R on both...
