    Kona Remote 160

    Say hello to my new ride, Kona Remote 160 in size XL. Coming from Levo, it's my 3rd ebike. Just rode it home, need to set it up properly. Also the contact points will be changed to suit my taste (WTB Pure V saddle, riser bar and Deathgrip grips).

    Specialized Turbo Levo 2021

    I believe Levo has three year product cycle, which means new model will be out for 2022. 2021 - new colors and spec bumps (or downgrades)

    Comparing geometry (Commencal vs Giant)

    XL, looking at numbers the Meta XL is not that big or extreme. But that Giant is small, how did you manage with it?

    Santa Cruz Ebike

    I had the last gen Heckler :love: Weird to see Heckler reincarnated as an ebike. It's probably a good bike, but honestly I'm a bit underwhelmed about it. Nice to see they have big sizes available though.

    Specialized Turbo Levo 2020 XTR/XX1 Build FINISHED...?

    I really don't understand why put an XTR derailleur on an e-bike :unsure: But I'm very interested to see how this build turns out.

    The misunderstood reach and bike sizing

    This was originally intended as a reply to another post, but I decided to post a new topic as this is a thing I keep bumping into all the time here. Which is 'reach equals bike size'. Reach does mean how far you have to reach for handlebars when seated. Reach is the distance between bottom...

    Setup after a bad crash!

    Shaving few mms off the bar height won't probably do much. Tires are one thing to look for. But spending money on mtb coaching session would probably make the biggest difference.

    Ride out picture thread

    A break from bike park riding. 25km of rocks and roots. Levo with 27x3 tires is made for this!

    2020 Specialized levo/kenevo rumors?

    I guess Lyrik Select has replaced Yari in Rockshox line up, so there would be really no price difference. Why not just ride the Select and see how it performs?

    2020 Specialized levo/kenevo rumors?

    Great news. I'm looking forward to buy a cheap Lyrik Select from someone upgrading :-) I'm still running Motion Control Yaris on both my Levo and bike park ride. Yari is a great fork for the price.

    Bike size

    Gary is right. If I were to ride different sizes of Decoy, the distance from saddle to bottom bracket would be the same on all sizes. Which means effective seat tube angle would be the same. Only thing that would be different between sizes is how much seat post is visible due to different seat...

    2020 Specialized levo/kenevo rumors?

    Maybe it's the same or close to 2019 comp in "taupe" color?

    New Specialized Creo e-Road and e-gravel launches - just 12KG!

    Register it as a moped :) More information about the motor and battery: Bike Rumor: Turbo Creo Motor 1.95kg, 240W power, 35Nm torque. So not really suitable for emtbs (except for maybe light weight XC bikes), but we'll see if there will be Specialized own motor for mtbs in the future.

    2020 Specialized levo/kenevo rumors?

    I would not be too worried. Levo probably won't see any major changes until 2021. Until of course the 700wh battery makes it to the cheaper models, which I doubt. But I'm very interested to see the new Kenevo.
