    Impact of California rain on my local trail

    My first sighting this year of our state flower, the California Poppy. I’m not sure what the little purple flower is.

    Levo Gen 3 Best strongest bike chain recommendation

    Connex chain. No problems on my Levo. Bonus the link allows me to easily take the chain off for cleaning. I’m a proponent of waxing so easy on/off is essential. https://www.connexchain.com/en/bike-chains/detail/connex-12se I’ve used them for years on all my bikes. Road, fixie and Amish mtb.

    Ebike specific chains or just go standard?

    1,500 miles on chain. Riding a Levo. I follow the Oz Cycling clean and wax regimen. Practically no wear. Not even 0.5 yet. I’ve ridden Connex on road and mtb bikes for 20 plus years. Connex link makes cleaning and maintenance ridiculously easy.

    Shared trail etiquette

    +1 for Timber! bell. I have mine installed tucked in right next to stem “backward”. The on/off lever on the front side. You can hardly tell it’s there. As I approach someone, 100m 50yards, I turn it on. Typically the walker/hikers hear me early, glance back and then move over. Just today I got...

    Levo bike stand.

    On the FJM stand the wheels are only 5” or 12cm off the ground. So I doubt it. It’s easier and safer to lay the bike on its side or upside down per the manual.

    Geezer? Need reading glasses?

    I ride with prescription bifocal sunglasses. No problem. But I do keep a set of readers in my pack just in case. For night or low light conditions I go to the local hardware store and buy bifocal safety glasses. Something like this...

    Levo Gen 2 Limp mode bypass for new firmware

    No disrespect but by definition I’m not “still riding” when I go to engage Walk. I use Walk after a max effort on a very steep pitch or challenging technical section. Maybe you could give an example of when I would need Walk while “still riding”. It might be something that I would want to...

    What did you buy your ebike this week?

    A new made to order and beautifully crafted FJM stand. Then mounted an Assegai on the front and a Minion DHR on the back. Small payback to my trusty steed that has provided so many good times. Cheers

    MTB Clothing

    Here in the USA I'm a big fan of Zoic gear. They sell it all. Shorts, liners, tops, etc. I especially like how their shorts/pants and liners integrate. My personal favorite shorts are the Black Market 9". At $60 IMO a very good value. I'm not a big fan of long shorts to and past the...

    Levo Gen 2 mode position switch orientation

    IMO no way to do all of those. I have it facing me so that I can make + and - changes easily. I’ve never needed/used the Turbo button. I’m typically in Trail mode and when I need Turbo I just use the + button. As you have stated accessing the Walk button is useless when you are actually...
