    spray.bike - has anyone any experience?

    My daughter got a new bike for her birthday, and yesterday took her maiden voyage... That now leaves her old Specialized Riprock redundant. It's bright pink, and in immaculate condition. Previously, I've found kids bikes sell for a fraction of what they cost... so I loathe the thought of...

    Eagle (SX) tuning - help!

    This is a non EMTB question, but hopefully someone can help me anyway… I bought my daughter a Specialized Rockhopper for her birthday. She’s going to be 9, and I’ve got her an XS ‘Expert’ model. Grandma is the one buying it, so I had to get the best deal possible. This meant ordering online…...

    How to determine spoke length?

    This isn't specifically an eMTB question, but hopefully someone can help? My daughter will be 9 in about 6 weeks. She's currently on a 20" Specialized Hotrock 20", which she had outgrown at the end last year. She's a "girly" girl, and loves pink / purple / turquoise etc... and all her bikes...

    I bought the Mucky Nuts Rear Mudguard (Eco savvy Mudguards, Custom Fenders and Frame Protection for Mountain Bikes | MTB | DH | Enduro | XC | Fat Bike | Road Bike) in the Black Friday sale. Between one thing and another, I’ve never got round to fitting it. I was going to pop it on just now...

    Chainsaw and bag for clearing trails?

    The UK is in the middle of storm Gerrit, and to be honest some of my local trails still haven’t recovered from Arwen over 2 years ago. I often have to dismount and climb over fallen trees or get re-routed to avoid them. Last summer, I ended up hacking some fallen trees up with a big wood saw...

    Brake hardware (screws etc)

    Random question... Does anyone have conical washers on their rear brakes? For the last 3 years I've just had standard bolts with a washer straight through the brake and into the frame. I don't have any postmount adapter on the rear (180mm rotors) but have never had an issue. The bolts were...

    Sticking T-Type POD button

    I’ve been running the T-Type transmission for about 4 months now. About 5 weeks ago I’d washed my bike and left it for an hour or so to dry off before lubing the drivetrain. I normally run the chain round a couple of times with the lube on it… then run it back and forth through the gears...

    Threads stripped in cranks…

    This isn’t eMTB related, but hopefully someone can point me in the right direction… My mate has been borrowing my heavily upgraded 2017 Stumpjumper (Specialized Stumpjumper FSR Expert Carbon 6Fattie (2017) review - MBR) and coming out for rides with me. I’m on my Levo SL, with the power off...

    Ramps - MTB Hopper v's Sender?

    My wee lad has just turned 4, and has been on 2 wheels for about 8 months now. Gaining confidence, and going further on a daily basis. We were out the other day, and he saw some little kids jumping off ramps with their bikes, and has asked for a ramp! Although my 8 year old daughter doesn't...

    Levo SL 1.2 2023 - from the frame up!

    I'll start the thread with a picture... and then explain what I've done!! This is a thread detailing my build so far of my new Levo SL. I’d class it as my dream build, as it’s been built using the components I want, without considering the cost of the parts… so no holding back. I’ve...

    Gloves with finger / knuckle protection?

    Anyone got suggestions on some gloves with a bit of finger protection / padding. I guess it’s due to the weird weather (sunny, rain, hot, cold) we’re having this summer, but a lot of the trails are a bit overgrown. My knuckles have various cuts from thorns, and I have 2 quite painful black...

    Slik Graphics

    I've used Slik Graphics before for decals, and was very happy with the result. Specialized UK recommended them to me. They took a while, but the quality was A1 and is still lasting well about 6 years later on my Stumpy. I'm looking for some S-Works graphics to be done in a turquoise blue...

    Shock Mount

    I recently swapped my bike from a 2020 Levo SL to a 2023 Levo SL, and went to transfer my Rockshox Super Deluxe over as I'd had it custom tuned. It didn't fit, as the mount was slightly different. I contacted J-Tech (where I bought it from), and they suggested I should return it and have it...

    Anyone bought from MountainSports Distribution before?

    A few weeks back, I ordered a Wolftooth headset and some spacers for my Levo SL. When I received it (very quickly - US to UK in about 2 days) all the anodised blue parts were completely different shades of blue. Wolftooth agreed this was unacceptable and refunded me some parts. They also said...
