    Levo Gen 2 Spoke tension for Roval Traverse 29" wheel

    Awesome, you've learnt a lot quickly, put it into practise and succeeded. It's the sort of thing that would intimidate some (y), and rightly so; you could really f... up too :ROFLMAO:

    Name your Porn Shop

    Yes...I'm wondering if this is for a real business idea :unsure: My somewhat philosophic name of "Release", or "Passion 'n pashin", or "pearls 'n clams" (a reference to pearl necklace) or "tongue and groove" :ROFLMAO:. I think the last one is inspired

    Steps e8000 chainring size

    I've been using 32 for a while now. I'm guessing you're mostly in eco, as I am. Well, I've changed eco to med, so it is lower than standard (standard is eco in high). It's as small as you can go and it works with the existing chain guide - all good.

    Levo Gen 2 Spoke tension for Roval Traverse 29" wheel

    Wheel builders use differing tensions for each side to centre the rim in the frame. It's a necessity because a cluster takes up more room than a rotor; so how do you center the rim for the frame? Well, you have to move the rim closer to the cluster by tightening the spokes on that side, or...

    Could Shimano Suck Any More At Software?

    Ahh, just checked mine - I have 3.4.3 app! Well, I won't be updating that; but that's easy for me when I have no need to. I think Rick bought the new orbea rise, so he is over a barrel :(

    higher spec alum or lower carbon

    Yes, still around 1.5kg taking into account the tyre setups and the bars? I'm still not sure I'd believe that 1.5 kg is due to the frames alone - but I'm pretty cynical when it comes to big business :rolleyes:

    higher spec alum or lower carbon

    2kg difference! That doesn't sound right.

    Could Shimano Suck Any More At Software?

    That also depends on how many reviews for each to a degree. As the number of reviews grow the overall score average generally drops. Pretty sad either way

    higher spec alum or lower carbon

    Aluminium! :ROFLMAO: I'm an inverted snob - function over marketing and form all the time. All those bolt interfaces needed with cf and any ding is a potential future weakness.

    Could Shimano Suck Any More At Software?

    yes, the app has a terrible reputation if you look at the reviews on g00gle play. I've been lucky; but rarely use it :ROFLMAO:. I setup a custom power profile and removed a heap of junk from the bike's display. I also did an update for motor and power switch which resolved one problem for me -...

    Could Shimano Suck Any More At Software?

    I think 4.8 is the motor firmware - that is what mine has now. I only updated mine about 3 weeks ago - I wasn't aware of any issues with that piece of firmware. I've read about lots of issues with the actual e tube app. There is still one more motor update, 4.9, that I'm aware of. However, it...

    Levo Gen 2 Turbo Levo 2020 won't start after washing

    I have a regular doctor. I went to see him once for a problem. I said "it hurts when I do this". His exasperated answer was "well don't do it!" :ROFLMAO:

    2021 EoneSixty " foam, motor protection"

    Sounds logical. I think I've seen this stuff before - mud and dust don't get far into the foam. I'd leave it. My '20 model just has a gap - it gets dusty, but that's all.

    Removing the remote lockout

    just a quick one - do a search for the manual levers - whatever they call them. They should be available as an aftermarket thing. They used to be available for their clockwork bikes. Consider whether you need it at all for the forks; although some compression damping is good if you're doing an...

    Display bluetooth not found

    I questioned the update because I thought it might be the cause. Was this about the time your trouble started?

    Wobbly Front Chainring

    Geez! Behind the crank arm there is a round thing with notches in it. If it's shimano it has 16 notches. That notched round thing holds the chainring tight (well, when it's done up) onto the crank. It needs to be tightened. You need a special tool and the crank needs to come off first. It sounds...

    If you're in Tassie, I can recommend Cycology in Launceston My friend and I both bought our ebikes from there (he bought giant, I bought merida). They gave us a great price and they are good if something goes wrong.
