    Levo Gen 3 New brakes... What does everyone run?

    I've run MT5's and Shimano xt's. The Magura's feel like they have more total power but I like the lever feel of the Shimano better. That said, my next set of brakes will be TRP DH EVO'S. They seem to be the love child of SRAM and Shimano. I'm truly interested to see how they feel

    E-Mythique Mud Guards (+the other Vitus and maybe most none fixed rear triangle bikes)

    I found this rear fender the other day. It seems like it might work. It looks pretty nice. I'm checking to see if they ship to the US currently. https://sicomtbproducts.com/product/vitus-sommet-rear-mudguard/

    Vitus E-Mythique VRS builds

    Put a couple more rides on mine. I'm in love. By far the best riding bike I've owned or possibly ever ridden. So nimble and flickable but still takes the trail chatter well. The motor has plenty of power and works well. I mainly bumble around in E and turn it up to T when I want to play...

    Vitus E-Mythique VRS builds

    I am definitely changing the fork out, but I will keep this in mind. I may use the fork for another bike so I will try the lower bath oil trick on it.

    Vitus E-Mythique VRS builds

    I've noticed a lot of the problems are water ingress. I saw where some people were putting clear body protection over the display to cover the seams. My batteries fit pretty firmly in place. I've removed them to charge as to keep the charge port plug intact. I don't ride in inclement...

    Vitus E-Mythique VRS builds

    My wife and I have been looking for out next bikes for a while. Been looking at the Vitus E-Mythique, but with the problems with Vitus had me hesitant. When they shut down Vitus USA I figured all was lost. Then Planet Cyclery must have bought all the US stock because they popped up with some...

    Shimano EP8 Firmware Update

    Just to give a little update to this, found a bike shop about 60 miles away that could fix it. They had to plug into the bike and get Shimano on the phone. They had to log in and take over their computer to over ride the settings on the bike. We did a full reset along with measuring the rear...

    Shimano EP8 Firmware Update

    Just checked via gps on my phone and it’s consistently 5mph faster than actual speed. That means assist stops at 10mph! Very frustrating. Does anyone know the best way to get the correct firmware on the bike and correct the speed?

    Shimano EP8 Firmware Update

    I picked up a second hand bike with a Shimano EP8 motor. The previous owner tried to update the firmware and struggled to get it done. It currently runs well, but the top speed is 15mph (25kph). I wanted to update the firmware with with the US firmware, but cannot figure out how to do...

    Vitus E-Mythique LT Enduro EMTB - Bargain of the year

    Planet Cyclery put the bikes on a 50% off sale, so I pulled the trigger on a small for the wife and a large for myself. I was leery with Vitus US being shutdown. I'm still a little nervous on getting replacement frame parts in the future. Not worried about electrical parts with them being so...

    We've had a discovery+ subscription for a while and it's not on the American one. I keep meaning to try a VPN and see if that will work. The subscription is worth the money just for Mythbusters!

    I've bought tons of stuff from CRC over the last year. Several Brand X dropper post for the kids and friends bikes (which I highly recommend, great quality for the price) and some random tools and parts to meet free shipping. I used to exclusively order tires from CRC. By far the best deals...

    E-Mythique charger advice

    I was thinking the other day I wish we could go through that thread and sort the tech out into its own thread. You have alot of really useful info in there that's buried. I still have hopes of Vitus making it out of this mess intact and these become viable for us in the US again one day. I...
