    What did you do to your EBike this week?

    Gave my Levo's headset a cleanup and regrease after an unexpectedly wet and muddy ride today. Headset made clicking sounds – now all good again! Interesting how one seems to morph into a bike mechanic more and more over time. :rolleyes:

    Who's got the highest mile bike & motor?

    It's the total mileage. The second motor is at 6.000 km. Battery still at 100% (and doesn't feel degraded either).

    Who's got the highest mile bike & motor?

    Congrats! Mine isn't far behind at 9.918 km atm. It's on its second motor (although I'm not sure the replacement was really necessary – a precautionary measure while still under warranty).

    Luckily it's a loong way to christmas. 😅

    Pic of the Day

    Had a fab ride with my daughter over Frankfurt's skyline. Quite gnarly, but she made it. 👊

    What did you buy your ebike this week?

    RockShox Deluxe Select rear shock – so I can keep riding, while the Fox Float DPS is sent away for maintenance.

    Should I or shouldn't I? 🤷🏻‍♂️

    Best option available today would be the Grip2 cartridge; later this year the Grip X (budget) or X2 (top of the line).

    Should I or shouldn't I? 🤷🏻‍♂️

    In your bike's case I would consider swapping the GRIP damper of your forks for something fancier (or some new forks with a more advanced damping unit altogether). Would be a noticeable improvement imo.

    New 2025 Fox fork lineup

    That gold finish is a limited edition, iirc, so nobody needs to have it on their forks.

    Kenevo SL Official 2022 Kenevo SL (KSL) Megathread!

    Actually, they have discounted numerous models across their range, so nothing Kenevo SL specific.

    Levo Gen 3 Galfer purple pads E-BIKES G1652

    Do you have a photo of the caliper with the new pads installed?

    Levo Gen 3 Galfer purple pads E-BIKES G1652

    Not necessarily. G1652 ist Galfer's code for their purple pads, regardless of caliper brand or model.

    Levo Gen 3 Galfer purple pads E-BIKES G1652

    I recently installed these exact pads on my Guide RE caliper and had to be extra careful to push the pistons fully back. Works great for me (on used SRAM Centerline rotors at currently ~1.7 mm thickness).

    Levo Gen 3 Galfer purple pads E-BIKES G1652

    You probably purchased the wrong pads, I would guess. If you have Guide RE or Code R brakes, maybe you accidentally ordered the Guide R version? They look similar, but aren't compatible.

    What is wrong with my derailleur?

    Since it could also be cable tension and limit screws, I suggest you start over with a complete derailleur adjustment. I recently found this excellent video explaining it all, step by step:

    Review SicoMTB - perfect rear mudguard!

    Sicomtb +1. Protects the bike rather than the rider (and I should have pulled the trigger earlier, if you ask my bike's frame).

    Levo Gen 3 What tyres have you switched to?

    I'm also running the Conti Kryptotal Fr and Re combo (Enduro casing, tubeless) and very happy with them even though they are a littlebit heavier than the original Butcher and Eliminator. I must admit that I am biased and will probably always run Conti, because they are produced in my former home...

    nobody converting bikes anymore?

    Maybe someone could revive the section by reorganizing and pinning important info on top – like answers to common questions like "what are the options on the market available today to easily convert my vintage 26er into an ebike?".

    New 2025 Fox fork lineup

    It's time for some fresh bike bling. Fox have released a new series of forks featuring the new Grip X and Grip X2 dampers as a replacement for their Grip 2 and Fit 4 damping units. As a plus, they offer a limited edition of exactly 1974 forks not only with Kashima coated stanchions, but...
