Hi!
Stated research on waterproofing materials for harnesses and motor. Bought 3M Scotch 1601 liquid tape for harnesses isolation where wires enter the plugs.
didn’t have an opportunity to try it on Levo cause I’m still waiting for delivery.
Sprayed it in on plastic plate, took a small brush...
Exactly. Or you can suck fluid back through the caliper, but really really slow. Most of the air is trapped in the lever, so push it through the caliper once, and then pull it from the lever with caliper closed, tilting the levere a bit and do the same from another side of the lever (it’s called...
Year, had the same experience with first bleed. Just don't push super hard on syringe cause it sucks air the lever o-ring (you feel like it's an never ending process, spent 4 hours before realized my mistake). Instead just push full syringe from caliper to lever, close the lever and repeat...
MDR-P rotors are only for 6-bolt interface (Magura strongly warns against Centrerlock for MDR-P). Had MT7 for more than a year, though had to use rear 2-pot caliper on Merida eOne-Sixty. It’s the most powerful brakes with 220 mm, even with 2-pot calipers!
Now I’ll happily install them on my new...
It not about that you have agreed that it doesn’t justify the increase, it’s about real life increase of supply chain. If, say, shipping container was 3000 EUR, and now you can get it only for 6000 EUR (and you need 1000 of them) — it’s your problem, cause tomorrow there will be NO shipping...
About the price hike. There’s a HUGE price increase in shipping. My local friendly Merida dealer ships Merida themselves from Taiwan to Russia and they confirmed that there are a lot of problems on all stages from cardboard boxes to containers and to OEM parts including motors. So in the end...
As I remember, repaining or striping a paint automatically voids the warranty, especially on carbon as it should be done by professionals. The warranty than will not cover motor and harnesses, so it might be too expensive in the end(
Ask you LBS or Specialized before it’s not too late
I agree on full featured DB should be way better than stock, what kind of custom tune to your weight they did? DB doesn’t seem to have any shim stack due to twin tube design. I asked CC, but didn’t receive a reply on this exact question.
I currently have Super Dexule on Merida eOne-Sixty that...
Thanks, good point!
Yeah, I looked through the whole market of rear shock and decided to return to gym ?
Weather is shitty anyway, so why not to loose 10 kg and buy MegNeg instead
Hi.
Did you found a solution? I'm 250-255 lbs, ordered the Levo 2021 with Deluxe shock. Now I'm thinking about what to do with shock until it arrives in late in March.
Hi, how much do you weight?
I have ordered Levo 2021 (basic alu model) with Deluxe shock. I Weight 120 kg with gear, so I'm wondering if I can install MegNeg. It seems like I'll be around 260 PSI, so MegNeg will put me somewhere near PSI limit (325 PSI), and it's a bit scary )))
Personally run Deity Copperhead 35 mm length 31.8 with Nukeproof Horizon V2 carbon handlebar. Not as stiff as 35 mm (hate the idea of 35 mm bore). It's not super comfortable nor ultra-stiff.
Nukeproof did beautiful thing with it's bars: they have an offset that actually compensates handlebar...
On my previous Merida eOne-Sixty Shimano e8000 motor was replaced under warranty and I was granted +2 years on motor. My dealer told me that, not that I was asking him. I’ll ask my friend at Specialized about this case, waiting for my new Levo, assume to have the same policy...
Did anyone tried SKF MTRX bearings? I’ve been waiting for them in common sizes for a few years and now they are available. They are stuffed with polymer instead of grease and this polimer is filled with oil. SKF promotes lifetime warranty ?, but will not ever believe in this.
Though they don’t...
I run custom Hope Pro4 / DT Swiss EX511 (rear), XM481 front. Super reliable, rebuildable wheelset and quite light. It’s on the second ebike, didn’t have any troubles with not so ebije specific rims. I’m 116 kg without gear, so I assume all those ebike specific rims are just marketing BS and...
