    Levo Gen 3 Problem with rear brake sram code rs

    In any sealed system the piston can only retract the same distance as it is pushed out..........unless there is a leak in the system or they need bleeding.

    Rail (625Wh) -11 mm offset sound a bit to much for my trek Rail

    No...that chainring is probably for a fatbike

    SRAM's new 2023 Drivetrain allows full power shifts

    Not sure why 55mm............chainline is set by the hub..ie boost ( 148mm)...so chainline should be 51 to 53 ..........ie usually 3mm offset chainring.

    We may need number plates!

    A law is only effective if it is enforced!! But if the E Scooters are restricted to 6kph in terms of the their motor etc then enforcement is less needed. Riders could of course use some form of derestriction device but it would be pretty obvious and likely to be enforced pretty rigourously given...

    All about AXS

    I dont use the app. I do micro adjustment with the chain on the 2nd largest cog..............either up or down....or both. Only ever had to do it once though in 400 miles. As far as I can tell AXS only needs to know how far to shift for every gearchange. It already has that setting out of the...

    its certainly possible on the Gen 2 Levo.

    Shimano linkglide 11speed overshifting. Help!

    Well done. Could well have just been new chain syndrome. Apparently the Linkglide chain is purposely designed with quite a bit of side flex to aid smoother shifting. If it was still gummed up with the wax they use to preserve new chains in their packaging it may have lacked that flex. Just a...

    Levo Gen 3 Problem with rear brake sram code rs

    A lot depends on the orientation of the calliper. I only have to clean/lube the front calipper a bout once a year because it is oriented virtually vertical and is behind the fork leg so in a sheltered position. The rear calliper on both my bikes is horizontal and regularly gets covered in trail...

    Shimano linkglide 11speed overshifting. Help!

    So the only other components involved are the hanger and the chainwheel. Maybe check the chainline....ie straight from chainwheel to centre cog of the cassette. Then check the hanger is not bent. The cassette 3 smallest cogs are assembled individually.....check they are assembled correctly...

    Shimano linkglide 11speed overshifting. Help!

    Did this set up replace a previous 11 speed or a 12 speed? Did you have to change from Microspline to HG freehub and if so was the original set up using an inboard spacer, which is not required with the HG freehub? That is all I can think of that would cause your issue......

    Orbea Rise and Sram Transmission. Compatibility?

    Meanwhile it looks like Shimano are developing a direct mount derailleur set up.

    SRAM's new 2023 Drivetrain allows full power shifts

    Its 4 bolt BCD I assume and a SRAM chainring....which is not threaded for the bolts so they are nuts and bolts. You need to use an allen key on the bolts with a slot type tool ( make your own) to hold the "nut" at the back of each bolt. Rotate the chainguard out of the way. Chainring will then...

    We may need number plates!

    To include ebikes in the proposed legislation for e scooters would require complete revision of the existing pedelec regulations and there is no sign of any intention to do that. Interestingly the 6kph speed limit proposed for e scooters is the maximum walk assist speed for pedelecs.

    Chain length

    The AXS mech essentially gauges the correct indexing by being installed with the mech cage in its full outboard position......make sure both limit screws are slightly off their stops first. So you may need to re-Install it from scratch. Thereafter it is just a matter of checking the chain gap...

    So.... this happened (ceramic piston breakdown)...

    If pistons refuse to go back into the calliper with a reasonable push it is best to unscrew the bleed port on the lever. Pushing the pistons back will push a little fluid out which shows that the overall volue of fluid had become bigger due to water contamination or air ingress.

    So.... this happened (ceramic piston breakdown)...

    the seal mark on the piston suggests it was being forced to operate at an angle suggesting the calliper may have been out of line or it moved. The piston is also pretty dirty.......do you clean and lube them occasionally?

    Chain length

    once you have confirmed..or otherwise..your chain is the correct length, re check your chain gap/B Tension and repeat the indexing set up...... Did you clean the waxy finish off the new chain before fitting it??
