    2021 Lyrik Ulitmate crush washers

    I recently did a lower leg service on my Lyrik fork and didn't find any crush washer used as shown in the Rockshox parts diagram. The air shaft side didn't have any washer and the damper side had a large 8mm washer that was not the thicker smaller OD crush washer. I looked at this video...

    Levo SL Gen 1 Can hear a dry sort of whistling sound from my Sl motor when back pedaling

    I just noticed this today on my 2021 Sl Expert with about 1500 miles on it. When I backpedal there's a dry sort of whistling sound coming from the motor. I just noticed this while lubing my chain and not pedaling. It's pretty consistent and not really loud but noticeable. I think I would...

    Levo SL Gen 1 Having some issues with Shimano rotors made in China

    I decided to install Shimano 203mm rotors on my Tubo Sl that has code r brakes. I just could not get the centerline rotors to perform quietly. I used a 1.5mm shim to account for the 200 to 203mm rotor diameter difference. I had an RT66 that was made in Japan that I used for the front and have...

    More on using a Shimano 203mm rotor on a Code RSC 200mm brake

    Conventional wisdom says if you used the larger Shimano rotor on a Sram brake then you need to add a washer equivalent to the difference in diameter/2. That would be a 1.5mm washer to go from a 200mm rotor to the Shimano 203mm rotor using the existing Sram 20mm mount (for an existing 180mm...

    SRAM Centerline Rotor and Shimano RT66 rotor comments

    I have this posted in the Specialized section but thought I would add a link here. I know that SRAM brakes have a bit of a bad rep with many of us and I can't say I love the use of DOT fluid or the involved bleeding procedure. But I've come to learn to be better at it and I currently don't...

    e8000 15mph vs 20 mph

    Does anyone know if the speed limitation resides in the motor or the controller? Will a motor from Europe work in a USA bike and provide support up to 20 mph? I don't see any motors available here in the USA but many on ebay from Europe. Seems like the Jam2 battery can be ordered from Italy...

    Bike sizing, ape index, reach, stand over height, etc.

    OK, I admit I am no long 5'8" at age 72. I am officially 5' 7". Stretch is only 5' 4" or a negative ape index of -3". Inseam is only 30". Stand over on my medium jam2 is "painful", lol. Medium mullet with 2.6" tires and 150mm forks gives me 1205+mm wheelbase, std long 457mm stays and a seat...

    Levo SL Gen 1 Buying a used Specialize Levo SL Expert carbon

    Today I was going to drive 150 miles to pick up my used 2021 Specialized Levo SL Expert. I was very excited about this but wanted to insure I had the remaining 1 year plus warranty on the battery, motor and TCU. A failure of those is very expensive. A trip to my local dealer (took two trips)...

    Yet another shock question, 8.5" x 2.25" sub for 210x55mm?

    I'm getting bit frustrated trying to find a 210x50/55mm dvo Topaz t3. I have found an 8.5"x2.25". That would change the travel form 140mm to 145mm. It would also raise the back of the bike about 6mm. As is stands I've lowered the back of my 2018 plus Jam2 using a 2.6" instead of the 2.8" and...

    Will this Crane Creek shock work on a medium jam2 C Focus,....Cane Creek DBcoil IL Rear Shock - 210 x 55mm, Black

    I have no idea if this Crane Creek shock will work on my Focus. It comes with a spring but I don't know 1) if this will fit and 2) if the spring is going to be even close for my bike and weight. Anyone have any experience with this? I'm so tired of waiting for the DVO Topaz...now Dec 2021 or...

    Love to see a long travel Fazua Bulls

    There are only two emtn bike choices in the USA if you want a bike with a Fazua motor, Bulls and Trek. Both are short travel, steep fork angle, XC bikes and probably not big sellers here. I would never want to ride one of these on some of the technical sections I encounter here in SoCal. I...

    New rear wheel on order

    I've been running a set of wheels given to me. Front is 29" CF Exile and back is 27.5, 35mm exile+ aluminum. I've changed the freewheel once in about 1 1/2 to 2 years of riding and I noticed many hub cracks the other night. 11 out of 32 spokes holes on the drive side are cracked. The spokes...

    Converting from e8000 to ep8

    Has anyone seen this video yet? Looks like small cables and crank arms have to be changed on the ep8 (if you can get it) from the e8000. And EP8, depending on where it comes from might be restricted to 15mph VS 20 mph for the States. Is this even available in the US yet? And of course you...

    Can 2019 PF 7 go mullet or do we have to change forks

    I have a friend with a 2019 PF 7 that wants to install a 29" on the front. I know they are slightly larger diameter than the 27.5+" so does anyone know if it will fit without replacing the fork. I think he wants a 2.5" x 29" on the front. Thanks
