No I'm quite sure smaller wouldn't be right, I'd end up in a situation when I'm unstable because I'm perched on the thing Mario kart style. What's your standard stem length? geometrygeeks.bike reckons it's 55. I didn't pay too much attention when I tested.
I've got money down on a H10 that I will pick up next week when I have the rest of the cash. Sizing... something I'm freaking out about a little bit. I rolled around the car park on a Large, I'm 181cm, and it felt fine. But that's rolling around the car park. The reach number is basically the...
I'll give you a different angle. I owned two ebikes - first a 2018 Levo and then a Commencal Meta Power 29. I now own none. After riding the Levo for around 18 months I lost interest in it. I had mechanical issues with the Levo and was generally not enjoying it so switched to the Shimano & coil...
This is a subject near and dear to my heart right now.
For me, bike choice changes over time. I bought a 2018 Levo and fell in love with eMtb completely. Sold my acoustic bikes. 18 months later I just found I was getting bored. Then my life fell apart in unrelated ways and I sold the Levo...
Sometimes I wonder if I'd have been happier had we stayed in the UK - my family left Lancashire for Brisbane when I was 12, nearly 32 years ago. When I read things like this, I'm so glad we did leave. I'd be shocked to hear of something like that here, except for a few isolated suburbs.
That's an impressive looking carrier! I think I might have issues with the oversized tire stuck on the back of my Grand Vitara, but honestly I'm not into seriously 4WDing at the moment it'd be overkill. Nice bit of kit though...
It might really be as simple as heading to Europe. NZ and Tassie are closer but the web sites I look at have pretty crappy eBikes for hire there. It might be a great excuse to head to Europe! (much more expensive air fares though, sadly)...
Similar to last post, I use a Thule, slightly different model.
Thule 9034XTS T2 Pro XT - 50mm Receiver (Silver) 2 Bike Carrier - Thule Australia
It's expensive, but really sturdy. I didn't want to ever see my bike bouncing down the road, and wanted to be able to 4x4 to places to ride if I...
I've got a 2018 Levo. And it's a great bike, but the $ for spec was not great value. I think the motor, power delivery the app/electronics are probably a bit above most on the Specialized bikes. I think they're a bit ahead of the curve.
But does it matter? No. You like the Giant more and in...
New member here, saying hello. 2018 Levo that I now have pretty dialed. Something that I'm interested in hearing about at the moment (and I'll go look for threads) is travelling with eMtbs. Have people found places to hire batteries at any major centres? Obviously air shipping the battery is out...
