    No bike with adequate standover, options?

    Finally an easy question. I got a 2021 Kenevo for my wife and put a big fat seat on it. The bike is made for bombing down hill but who cares. It fits her and was way cheaper than the new prices. The stock set up was a little too low for trail riding and it had many pedal strikes. Luckily...

    Levo Gen 2 Turbo Levo Rear wheel axle sheared

    Broken axles have been common on the Levo since the beginning. (2016) It's really nothing but general maintenance just like replacing a chain for the Levo. They are like $60. Put a new one on every year. Cheers

    Is there a trend towards narrower rims and tyres?

    In answer to the OP Ed's question, eiecarbon can make what you are looking for. I've bought their widest rims a few years back with 32 spokes. Make sure you ask for no spoke holes (UST). You'll never need rim tape for tubeless. I don't really care what the dh pros use. 99.9% of riders don't...

    What is your reply to people commenting about you riding an assisted bike?

    So I've been on ebikes ever since the 17' Levo came out. I've heard everything. Even children on the trail have mocked me.:). My favorite thing is when the wife and I are cranking up an asphalt road and we pass a roadie. They don't know that I am behind my wife. I watch her pass and the roadie...

    Levo Gen 2 We can not use all the power of the battery

    I'm going to sign all my posts with "power wank expert".

    2017 Levo Battery Issue

    I think there is a place in Las Vegas. The problem is if you want to ship through the mail you have to have the original packaging. We tried all the carriers one time and they refused to ship.

    EMTB for large rider?

    Levo Gen 2 I love my turbo Levo, However!!

    The word I got from the LBS was that it is caused by low cadence. I've had three motors on the 17', two on the 18'. It was always the belt that broke.

    Levo Gen 2 I love my turbo Levo, However!!

    I have a 17 comp, 18 carbon expert, 21 Kenevo for the wife. Her previous bike was a 17'comp. I think the first version motors lasted longer and were more quiet. The second version motor has more power and is more efficient but is louder. I haven't had the Kenevo long enough to judge it. I...

    Kenevo Gen1 2021 Kenevo "comfort" bike

    That awkward moment when you install a comfort saddle for the wife on her new Kenevo.? I sold the wife's 17' Levo and was looking for a replacement. The 21' Kenevo was $1500 cheaper than a new Levo. The Kenevo didn't have the 700wh battery but that's ok. I needed a bike with low seat height for...

    Glove with some decent finger protection ?

    Found them. They have the carbon knuckles. I've noticed that the rubber finger armor on cheaper gloves rips off over time. As you can see these snap-on gloves are tough. I estimate at least 2000 miles on these gloves. No tears or rips and the rubber on the fingers is still stitched on...

    Glove with some decent finger protection ?

    I didn't see anyone mention Snap-on armored gloves. I've got over a year on a pair and they work great. https://shop.snapon.com/categories/Gloves/629389

    Are pedal MTBs better at really rocky terrain?

    I have a Levo that will keep churning for 1 sec after you stop pedaling. It has saved my life many times during technical rides with step ups. ?

    Engine with most torque

    If this family member is not going to ride fast you can gear down with a simple chain ring swap for a few bucks.

    90% of ebikes leverages are a joke.

    My wife has a medium 17' Levo and I have an extra large 17' Levo. They both ride completely different. I also have an 18' Levo carbon extra large. They both ride and climb completely different. The 17' is a Billy goat on a climb and the 18' can't keep the front end down. My only concern is not...

    KMC e11 EPT chain: possible cause of chainsuck

    I have three Levos that I maintain. I used to use KMC because that is what the bike came with. They aren't anywhere near as robust as SRAM. If you change the KMC with low miles then you wouldn't even know they are inferior and probably not ever have any problems. I, however, like to run at...

    Levo Gen 2 Gear shifting problems.... I've run out of ideas!

    I didn't see anyone mention anything about the overall number of chain links. It sounds like the op has checked everything except that. I have the three Levos. If the chain is too long it causes the symptoms described. Take out a couple of links, readjust the derailleur tension and welcome...

    Levo Gen 2 How long can the bike be stored with battery at 100%

    I don't pay any attention to charging mumbo jumbo. If your on a Spesh, ride'm hard, ride'm till there dead. I always charge right after a ride whether it's middle of summer or dead if winter. I carry a spare battery and always ride the first one dead. Of course dead on a Spesh is not really...

    How much are used bikes worth?

    I just sold a medium 2017 Turbo Levo for $3000 cash U.S. in Utah. It had the original motor but newer battery with 40 charge cycles.
