Well, you bring up something I often think about. What is the expected lifespan and support life of our eBikes? I mean your smartphone has a limit and an eBike will as well. As far as I see it, these things should be able to go 4-5000 miles and "last" or be supported up to 4 years. I take that...

I did this for about $45. Gave me a bit more travel and made it sit a little higher on my 2020 Lyric that came with my Levo Comp. I did notice it. I'm very partial to the Lyrik over the Fox to the point I'd swap a Fox on a new Levo if I had the means.

Fully agree it's most likely battery / motor connection and the cable you listed above. Helped my buddy with his 2016 that had these exact symptoms and this was it ultimately although some wire brushing and dielectric grease did help initially but not long term. The real fix occurred when he...

Agree overall for PSI, but if it's sidewall tears (which we get a lot here in CO,) the cushcore won't help that. That's the magic of a true Double Down (DD.) You pay in weight (though of course less on an ebike) and it's not as supple but it fends off the sidewall gashes unlike most of the...

The big “4 Year transferable” announcement was only for the motor officially BUT I had my battery die right over 1000 miles; it would not turn on and had blinking lights but would not charge. They warrantied it no problem in a week and the new battery even came with a new battery guard which was...

Hard to say. I guess if you have engagement and power I'd ride it and keep tabs on whether it gets worse. You're well within the motor warranty and even as a second owner. If it's performing and you can live with it, I'd ride it until it dies from sprag clutch (which this may be the beginning...

I should mention that you should register on Spec website as soon as you buy a bike...original or as a second owner. It records the date you register it on there and I think it gives the LBS more comfort if you've had it registered on there for a long period of time. (As opposed to showing you...

Took me a number of tires and setups to get it right. I was plagued by rear flats (some tread punctures, some torn sidewalls) and I was about to go with a cushcore when my Maxxis Minion DH did NOT hold up but I found Maxxis High Roller II 3C DD (Double Down.) I like them in a 2.3 and I'm running...

So after reading through this and many other posts here's my summary for those following along: First, there are two main issues. 1) Sprag clutch failure and 2) belt slippage. (And a third would be rough noises and such from bearing / water damage, typically over time.) The clutch failure is...

Ya, I just registered on the website, both my Levo and Kenevo. Two warranty issues so far and I brought a copy of a screenshot of the Spec website to the LBS showing it registered and no issues. Let them keep the copy. If you have the original receipt bring that. I do not and the shop I bought...

See my other post. 2020 Levo Comp, 2200 miles and 270,000' of climbing and motor went today. Being a regular on the forums I figured it would at some point before the warranty went out and I'm REALLY happy about the 4 year warranty because ya...I love this thing and use it but it was a sizable...

Well...so after all my 2000 mile bragging a few weeks ago guess what? Today the motor went. I had suspicions on the last few rides that it was slipping and today there was NO question. Gone. So right around 2200 miles and it's at the LBS for warranty and they were able to replicate the issue and...

Nice. Good to know you can run 36 with some modification. I'll try 34 for now and see how it goes. I want to split the difference I think so that I can still spin pretty low if I'm in a low assist and trying to maximize battery life. It's not uncommon for me to do a 50 mile ride with near 5k...

Okay! Just over 2000 miles as of today! So an update: 2020 Levo Comp, Medium Delivery Date / First Ride: 5/22/2020 Date hit 2000 mi: 8/27/2021 2058.77 - Total miles as of 8/27/2021 172 - Total rides 177 - Hours of riding (roughly) 55,649 - Calories burned (roughly) 55 - # of charges on first...

I just ordered two of the 34 tooth Praxis ones. One is for my 2019 Kenevo which I know is as big as I can go on that bike with the chainstay. The other is for my 2020 Levo because it needs replaced now at around 2k miles. BUT, I'm wondering if I should have gone 36 for the Levo? Thoughts...

Ah I see. Yes, just did a search on that and I'm getting up to speed. So all this...the dengfu, the befang etc. are all just generic Chinese parts and then Luna "customizes" the package adding a few proprietary parts etc. and putting the final spec / product together? That makes sense. It's...

Not a common brand but as someone with two Spec eBikes I can't stop considering this (although it appears they only have small left.) The price...and shipping now!? Thoughts? Anyone have any experience with this Befang motor or Luna Cycles in general? https://lunacycle.com/x1-enduro-ebike/

My buddy and I just looked into this here in the US with two major insurers. The rep acknowledged it's a new area and as such it's odd. They are categorizing them as "vehicles" since they can be used for commuting etc. They are NOT covered under homeowners or lumped in with other policies. There...

My new battery came with one of these. It's a pain to slip in between the battery and the cover. I left it out and the cover seemed to fit tighter that way anyway.

Setup tubeless and figure out your rear wheel setup especially. I found the original rear Spec tire to be lacking, front Butcher is still original at 1200 but chunking and will be replaced within the week. I use a DH tire on the rear and higher pressure now (32-35) and it's been fine. I have...
