surely depends more on how much uppy-downy than along-y?

I mashed my tibial plateau on Friday riding my Levo - I was washing out on a bend, instinctively put my foot down and the energy of the impact and rotation caused a serious injury - on their severity scale of 1 to 6 it was a ... I was going too fast and it was 100% my fault. I'm not blaming the...

I've moved to Offering actually. But also hurt myself last week so it will be a few months ...

problem is we have a damp country. if we waited for dry trails there are years when we wouldn't ride and others we'd get 30 days.

172cm, 780mm. if you've ridden them for a month and they're not right for you it's time to cut 10mm off each end.

New colours, higher prices.

Ask the shop to show you the chain tool and how to use it. (You just spent £xxxxx on a bike!) Yes I think derestriction will invalidate your warranty is Spesh found out. But also it means you're no longer riding a "bicycle" in the legal sense, it becomes an uninsured motorcycle legally. So if...

I guess he means this LEVOCIRAPTOR - speed de-restrictor. it's probably illegal where you live - I wouldn't do it. (I also don't see the need).

look under the fork steerer, above the fork crown. you'll see a hex bolt. use the tool to undo that, there should be chain breaker and spare link. like this -> SWAT™ Conceal Carry MTB Tool | Specialized.com

if there's a SWAT tool in the fork steerer (my LEVO did) it'll have a chain tool and a spare link you can use to fix the chain. chain breaks happen (tho not usually brand new!), suggest teaching yourself how to fix them trailside. it's probably number 2 issue on the trail after punctures. be...

update as promised - the PILO hanger arrived the day after being ordered, fitted in moments and the bike now shifts perfectly.

I've not "switched" in either direction, though I currently ride my lung bike more than my e. That may change again. Who knows. No regrets about getting it at all - I was loosing my mojo for riding a bit and my e was part of my path back.

it's probably box in-box out. doubt they ever opened it.

Saturday, falling back in love with the lung powered world. Yeah they seem so light! Got a year old Levo - in 2 minds about keeping it. (But probably will).

I like the colour and the visible weave at showroom conditions but it wouldn't look like that for long in my hands on the trail. Suggest the buyer tapes it up. oh and the shop's sticker would have to come off ... hardly subtle is it?

Response from gearmechhanger.com is that theirs are CNC'd whereas the OEM parts are cast (cheaper but softer). CNC are stiffer for better shifting as they don't flex but still designed to break when subject to forces outside the acceptable tolerance range. There you go - you pays your money and...

(gotta love the world of mech hangers, gazillions of small variations on what's basically a metal tab with a couple of threaded holes).

yeah -> Specialized Sandwich Hanger £11.00 I'll drop PILO a mail. (Hangers are meant to not be solid).

checking in with thread as I have the same problem, will order this hanger and update. if it saves me schlepping to the dealer and back I'm very happy! thx all, see you in a few days.

8. don't sell your lung-bike until you are _sure_ you don't want it any more. I nearly did and I would have regretted it.
