As an S-Works owner, I would agree with BruceJr and will do that for the next bike. If the S-Works is in your budget, I think it would be more fun to pick and choose certain upgrades. You can always rebadge if you really want the S-Works logo's.

I had a very similar issue with a bmw rack and ended up moving the straps further out on the platforms. I had to drill new holes for the bolts so if you aren't comfortable making modifications then longer straps will be needed. With the Alu frame, I would think that you could crank down the...

Youtube is probably the best but there seem to be new videos popping up all the time on this subject. Some like having it set so you can get full power if you push the peddles hard enough whereas others like to set a limit on the assist to force the rider to work harder. I like the limit and if...

Congrats on the new bike - you are going to love the freedom of going from a custom setting that resembles your current bike (Eco on low) to going full power in a split second (two taps) when you want. Sometimes you just need a boost to get up that long hill that you've climbed many times that...

I have this bike and I'm glad you figured this out. It's a bit unnerving backing out the crank bolt because it can be very tight indeed but it does pull the arm off and get easier as you go. Cranking it back down is also a challenge because of how tight it can feel compared to being fully seated...

Scary stories for sure but I'm thankful for them. I tend to let the adrenaline take over at times and stories like these are great reminders that we don't have re-do's. It's obvious to many but there are some (like me) that have a difficult time realizing that we need to slow down no matter what...

I've got the full power Levo and ride 95% in Trail, which I have set for 60% of motor use. I want to work to get that exercise but I don't want to have to stop to keep my heart from exploding. Having that full turbo option is just awesome for those moments when I want the bike to do the most of...

Late response - I had a 2018 Trek Fuel EX and the BB height was 334 mm and had 175 cranks. I had to sell it because all I did was strike rocks and roots - great bike but the geometry was wrong for the trails around me. My riding became a game of avoiding the rocks and roots. My Levo has 160 mm...

I could be alone here but I think it gets worse after 50. You start realizing that you're not as young as you think you are until the wrecks happen. They are more annoying than painful and some can hurt pretty bad.

Exactly, Ruppia. So I found out that the hinge version (V2) is not available in the US yet - according to my LBS. They must have looked into this because when I walked in they knew all about the V2 version this time. They told me that they would just order one of the new versions when they are...

V2 part number below. Does not appear to be available in the states yet. Found this on the same German site as RickBullotta - didn't know there were two posts on this topic until I found the part number. Thanks Rick. Part number - S229900031 Salko - thank you for confirming. I'll be requesting...

I dropped off my bike to have the new door installed. I watched the tech open the bag but I could tell that it was the original version - even though the tech was certain that it was the improved version. The new part had the exact thin plastic hinge. Maybe the spring-loaded hinge version that...

Interestingly, I received a call from my LBS letting me know that the replacement has arrived and to bring in the bike for installation. It would be nice to have the option to do the installation myself but at least the part covered. I'll report back on what version I get.

No argument with any of this. I live in an area where I'm not being watched too carefully and fortunately, I have the funds to add a derestricter to an already very expensive bike so the issue is not much of an issue for me. After reading your post, I'm just very thankful that a built-in speed...

Agree - I've seen this on shared trails and it's scary for those on foot or climbing up the hills on blind turns. I don't get that kind of bombing.

US opinion here. So many good points are being made in this debate. Personally, I find the 19 mph limit to be too soon - the anchor dropping. I tend to ride my Levo to the trails as opposed to car transport and being able to comfortably do 25 or 30 on my way to the dirt is nice but only when I'm...

This is interesting. My LBS also had me send them pictures of the receipt, the door, and the bike. They are saying that I will need to bring the bike in for the replacement as well. I showed them that it appears that the whole replacement could be done just from the battery casing. Did you need...

Mine broke from opening and closing maybe a dozen times. Just thin plastic - like bending a piece of thin metal several times and then it just breaks. LBS (Spesh dealer) has me in line for the replacement. I'm in the US. Been waiting maybe 2 months but I'm still riding and the sealed plug stays...

Thanks Bambamoda, I appreciate your comments. Yeah, the cheater angle is odd to me for sure, especially since I'm not competing : ) I'm looking forward to joining in on the conversations.

You are going to love it!
