Having the same exact issue. My educated guess that it's the bottom bracket area. Ugh. Sounds like you recorded my bike. Just got it in the last week. It's on the non drive side of the motor, and it seems for sure it's a bearing or something. Guess it's a Shimanio warrantyt item?
Yes, if you had the a file that shows the measurements of the graphics (outline) the I can get it printed locally and have a graphics person come up with graphic with logo already printed on it. Again, hope someone has the outline of the graphic. This would also be nice to have to make frame...
You did the best wrap on that bike. Can you share some advice on material, method, heck anything on how you did that. It's simply awesome. I want to change the graphics on my bike too. Did you have a template measured out. Again, super super cool
Check out the Loam Wolf soon as they are releasing a second video that will include the Levo, Rocky Mountain, Trek, Devinci, Bulls, Norco, and more. It will be nice to see where to Levo lands on this review. I'm sure it will land at or near the top. The problem I have with the Levo is it's...
Is there truly a Quiver Killer bike out there? Think not. One thing here in the SF Bay Area, the trails are very unique and bikes set-up to be perfect here often times lack in other areas. So LW reviewers liked those bikes in that exact trails system. How would they feel on riding those...
I often find that the staff at Bike Companies are less informed than you think. Many of these well intentioned staff members are wearing many different hats and focus on sales, not technical support in any depth. I am guessing companies such as YT are not looking for their staff to get too in...
Yep, was totally (happily) surprised at the review. I do think the bike may have been designed for the 170 the whole time along. Rob, the terrain in Palm Springs is definitely unique terrain, so this could be a big factor. We will see some rapid development of ebikes to some pretty exciting...
The Loam Wolf review of the 2020 with the 170 fork really surprised me. I'm thinking the bike may have always been designed for the 170mm Fork as they really struggled with the 2019. I'm wondering if this 10mm increase in fork travel would help address pedals strikes? Yeah, it's just 10mm...
Funny you bring up this topic. I've been on my Decoy more and more these days. Just last week I had three concurrent rides on my Decoy, then felt like I was going to die on my first ride back on the Yeti. A big, big ride scheduled for tomorrow on my Yeti and I'm thinking it's going to be a...
My brother and I both bought YT Bikes here in the USA. He got the Capra, I got a base Decoy. I have to say our experience has been stellar. He had an issue with some warped rotors on his Capra which were quickly replaced for free, I made the upgrade to 2020 XT which required a new hanger...
Rob-
You live this stuff everyday and I think you analysis is spot on. Stick with tried and true, but my observation is that not a single new bike or ebike will go with this Geo. When I'm on the Levo I feel like I'll need a 80mm stem to feel right. Fitting "in" the bike has been a game...
Rob- You have been blown away by the Geo of the Kenevo, and the Levo SL retains the Reach, STA, and HA of the Regular Levo. As for me, I just cannot get a good fit at 6'1" on the Levo XL which is a shame. I feel that Specialized missed the mark on the Geo of this bike. Just look at the...
Looking to replace my current OEM 2.8 rear Maxxis. Anyone having luck with a less wide, same width with a different tire brand altogether? Who is having better luck with their new choice or tire?
Funny thing about the Decoy 29. So much work went into the "Mullet" it makes me wonder if the 29 is just to satisfy the critics who panned the bike for Pedal strikes, and some complains of the wide rear tire. They could have build the 29 right outa the box without the need for the Mullet. If...
