    Busted motor!

    I am very curious about this as well, a lot of talk but I have not heard about this actually happening.

    Tube or Tubeless?

    Standard 2018 Levo and 2.8 Butcher tyres, anyone had some burps with tubeless? I am leaning towards tubeless, fitted the odd 1000 tyres in a past life as a mechanic so change is not an issue!

    Specialized Mission Control App v2.x Now Available

    2018 and I will check the hardware upgrade. I think I will do a bit of bush mechanics and put a bit of tape next to the magnet then I can see if it's better to roll back to engage walk mode.

    Tube or Tubeless?

    I was advised against this depending on skills level and pressure. Whilst running lower pressure the chance of a tyre burp and a big off increases, higher skills and pressures lower the chance of this happening. I will follow this to get feedback. I still run tubes and 500km with out a puncture.

    Shot Dead!

    I know we say you should be shot for wearing lycra on a MTB but this is wrong on so many levels.

    Levo 2019 motor noise

    Al forget the haters, I for one like that we have accurate Specialized info not rumours. Recalls are annoying but not unusual for any of the motor companies and with all E-bikes they fall into this category.

    Specialized Mission Control App v2.x Now Available

    Specialized Rider care, comments on the walk mode vary from useless to a bit shit so this needs some work. Might I suggest that this function have it's own channel in MC so we can tune it to a speed? So if I set it to 8 kph it uses the wheel magnet to achieve this speed regardless of what gear...

    2019 Turbo Levo Owners Thread

    Agree. Low (25%) sag and lowering tyre pressure made a world of difference on mine, I run zero clicks on compression normally but if I head down a steep rough part I add a couple. Another problem I had was low speed due to my confidence and skills as all of this increases the forks perform...

    2019 Turbo Levo Owners Thread

    There is a thread here with a couple of good videos on fork set up. I thought the same until I really started adjusting, the thing is that until you (or me! ) can set up a suspension we are not really qualified to say it's not fit for purpose. Buy a shock pump and digital pressure gauge and just...

    The best eMTB disc brake you can buy

    Definitely worth a read, whilst "best" is often not an absolute, best for your circumstances is. The most interesting facts were I could increase my braking 20% changing to a different brand of pads and having the characteristics of different brands/models explained so you can make an informed...

    19 levo 27.5 or 29?

    Just to derail this thread a bit. Has anyone tried a 27.5 rear and 29 front wheel combination on a 2018 Levo?

    Who here was asking for suspension set-up advice again?

    2018 Levo Al comp, so 150 Reba front and 140 Monarch back, I have not added any tokens and am not sure if the bike comes preloaded with any? I am not doing any jumps or drop-offs more than 50cms but a lot of steep root gardens where I don't want the fork to dive if I cock it up. I am trying to...

    Who here was asking for suspension set-up advice again?

    I used the basic video technique today and got a new level of smooth. I am only using 80% of travel with about 25% sag, should I drop the pressure? 2018 Levo with 94kg rider with full kit, 90psi front 210psi rear.

    CycleFest - Popped my e-bike cherry

    I would not be too concerned about the battery life on a Levo it's okay and about average for distance. As a noob we all used turbo every where but over time you get better at conserving power with out much effect on speed or effort. This is the Levos good point is you can tune the bike to your...

    How can i flight with my e bike?

    Maybe there is a market for 150 Watt battery stickers? Although the man is going to check you with the gloves on if you get caught!

    Levo Gen 2 Levo HT upgrades

    If it isn't broke don't fix it! Changing gear set won't make it easier over 25kph. Watch a few youtube videos and you can learn to do anything, what you are suggesting is not that hard and if you mess it up it will be easily fixed by a shop. Doing it yourself will help you when you are out and...
