    Worst thing you bought for your Ebike .

    Haha it's funny you say that, they are the exact ones I bought. I've never had so much hand fatigue and the jarring though the bars was unbearable. Back on the stock aluminium bars and life is good again.

    Worst thing you bought for your Ebike .

    Carbon bars, I thought they would be great but they are horrid. Every little bump feels like it's transferred into my hands and arms..not a fan.

    emtb riding can be aerobic exercise!

    I use a heart strap from my rides and have blevo adjust the assistance accordingly to keep my average heart rate around 155bpm. Snapshot of a typical ride. Love the cardo work out you get on an ebike. In the second pick you can see how hard my hearts working in the downhill trail.

    Norco Slight won’t turn on E8000

    Nah you don't even need to hit the power button. Just cycling back fairly quickly will turn the system on.

    Norco Slight won’t turn on E8000

    If you put a Allen key in a chain ring bolt and pedal the bike backwards pretty quickly as if you were lubing the chain the bike will turn on. Use to happen on my sight all the time. Does it on my Levo now too.

    Levo Gen 3 Gen 3 Levo Motor Noise

    Mine is the same as my old Shimano e8000 it's just a different frequency. At low cadence it's fairly quiet but spin up around 100 rpm and it's whines.

    Levo Gen 3 Your first ride impressions Levo Gen 3

    I'd ridden a norco with a Shimano e8000 and it was a bit small for my frame for 3yrs before I got my Levo. At first it felt massive and a bit of a shock, thought I'd made a mistake but now after 1000ks it feels awesome, the motor power is insane. Only thing I'd change is the front wheel, the...

    Levo Gen 3 Specialized Gen 3 2022 Levo Megathread!

    Anyone get after charging the dreaded red and blue error light. I'll plug the bike back into the battery nicely seated, close the door and go to fire her up and get the dreaded red and blue lights. Have to open the door push firmly again on the battery plug and then it works. The thing is seated...

    Levo Gen 3 S5 with a shorter stem or S4 with less reach than existing bike?

    I rode the s4 and s5 back to back just around the street and the s5 felt more comfortable but I realised later that the bars were rolled back on the s4 so it wasn't a fair comparison. I'm 6'2. I ended up buying the s5 and putting a 35mm stem on it with a 10 degree rise and its nice and comfy...

    Is this normal? Cassette dropped off?

    Haha OK yeah nah mine didn't just fall off. Least it's under warranty.

    Is this normal? Cassette dropped off?

    Mine use to do that. The cassette had eaten into the aluminium freehub body. If you pulled the cassette the whole cassette and freehub body attached would just come off. I'd have to use a wooden stick and a mallet to get the freehub body out of the cassette. Then put it all back to together...

    What did you buy your ebike this week?

    Yep mine are $10 safety glasses with the blue I'm red green colour blind it makes it easier to focus on the trail, if I wear a brown tinted lens I really struggle with the transition between the trees and trail.

    STUnlocker warning

    It truly is luck of the draw with these motors. I had a VLT sight that I thought the motor was on the way out, I sent it back to Shimano and forgot to flash it back to EU setting. It was out of warranty. They reviewed the motor and said it was fine, it did say on the invoice they checked it in...

    Levo Gen 3 Gen 3 Levo Motor Noise

    Mine is fairly silent in eco at average cadence. In trail and turbo once it spins up there is a distinct whine. It's on par with my E8000 motor

    Levo Gen 3 Specialized Gen 3 2022 Levo Megathread!

    Yeah I did but was the same deal. The bike shop regreased all pivots bolts and the squeaking was still there. Eventually they dropped the motor and redid all the motor bolts and the noise was gone.

    Levo Gen 3 Specialized Gen 3 2022 Levo Megathread!

    Nah just a garden hose on light spray. I've only washed it maybe 3 times when it was super muddy. Normally just wipe it over with a micro fibre cloth to dislodge the dust.

    Levo Gen 3 Specialized Gen 3 2022 Levo Megathread!

    Thanks. I actually took it to the shop with the stock plastic pedals on so they couldn't blame my pedals. They said the whole rear end linkage needed to be pulled apart and regreased. They said they would contact specialised as it's not something they've encountered on a bike with low ks.

    Levo Gen 3 Specialized Gen 3 2022 Levo Megathread!

    Any idea what this might be. That's me standing up and bouncing on the spot. So it's not the seat or seat post. It sounds like it's coming from the left crank as peddling produces the same sound with each revolution. Anyone had similar? It's in the bike shop but it's only got 630ks on the clock...
