    Levo SL Gen 1 Levo SL 2022 vs more recent models

    Surely it would be cheaper for them and better for you to just swap out the bike?! My 2020 SL 1.1 model is at around 2300 miles, original motor and TCU, so fingers crossed!

    Dji avinox- Amflow

    DJI doesn’t make batteries anyway does it? The ‘engineering’ and build of the battery was likely done by one of their battery partners to a DJI requirement. If Avinox is going to be adopted by bike manufacturers, particularly smaller lower volume ones, then they’ll likely need to be able to...

    Levo Gen 3 Levo Gen 4 2024 Rumours... And assorted random chat ....

    It would be really great if DJI/Amflow wasn’t in every thread, especially one about the Gen 4 Levo… Realistically, not everybody wants more power, otherwise there’d be no market for the SL versions, whatever the Gen 4 looks like it’s likely to be an improvement on the Gen 3 otherwise what’s the...

    Wait, there’s a new DJI e-bike motor on this thing called an Amflow?! 😳 I must have missed it!

    Big battery explosion inside house

    Who knows what’s going on over there at the moment, what with that terrible attack using a Ford F-150 pickup on pedestrians earlier… 😕

    Pic of the Day

    Switched the tyres over on the Focus today to something more suitable for the mud, Specilaized Hillbilly’s being my preferred mud tyre. A gloomy day all told, confirmed by when the M99 light went onto dipped beam rather than DRL… Good to spin the legs anyway!

    2022 6.8 Jam2 medium frame rear shock options.

    A couple of us on here managed to fit DVO Topaz T3 rear shocks to our early 2019 onwards Jam2s? https://www.emtbforums.com/threads/anyone-fitted-a-dvo-topaz-shock-to-a-jam2.16936/page-2#post-293768 Mine is the grey alloy one pictured, and it’s a medium. What gen Jam2 is yours? I’ve currently...

    What did you do to your EBike this week?

    Yep, wasn’t being critical at all, just that some folks believe the top cap and nut are solely responsible for the integrity of the front end, but they’re only torqued to 3-4Nm or so, and the stem and bolts clamping the steerer after pre-tensioning is where the lions share of the work is done...

    What did you do to your EBike this week?

    The top cap and bolt is only there to preload the stem/top and bottom bearings, the stem pinch bolts provide the security to stop it all shifting. Make sure that the top cap isn’t hitting the top of the fork steerer and make sure you’re torquing your stem bolts correctly and there isn’t a glut...

    Mm, fair challenge Zim, gammon and free range (woke) egg for me thanks, but I’ll take the fair trade pineapple if it’s an option! 😏

    Rocky Mountain declares bankrupcy

    I’ve had a few Rocky Mountain bikes over the last couple of decades, it would be sad to see them go under. I’ve still got a RM Switch SL, can’t bear to part with it, had so many great rides on it! Yes, the head angle is comically steep by todays standards, but it’s still a great ride even with...

    What did you do to your EBike this week?

    Steve, you don’t live all that far from me I don’t think? Feel free to pop down and I’ll get my compressor on it. 👍

    Big battery explosion inside house

    Yes, our hobby is linked to the raw material prices of lots of things, along with energy and labour costs. Lithium battery prices are actually falling despite demand increasing, all sorts of things have gone cordless these days...

    Can i use shimano mineral oil in TRP Slate brake system

    I haven’t used Shimano oil in TRP brakes but have used TRP mineral oil in my Shimano’s. Haven’t noticed any difference at all, just like you’re going to made sure it had a good flush through with the newer oil.

    Turbo Levo drivetrain upgrade options/suggestions

    The CUES 10 speed will slide onto your HG freehub no problem, if you can get the shifter, mech and chain thrown in you’ll be all set. 👍

    Big battery explosion inside house

    I’ve been very careful to stick to just addressing points raised, you as usual just seem keen to ‘play the man’ at the earliest opportunity. I’ve driven ICE vehicles for nearly 30 years, longer if you count tractors on the farm, and EVs of some sort or another for over 10. I have some...

    Big battery explosion inside house

    Right now, and in the theoretical scenario you describe, maybe. But, that’s catastrophising a little I think, as that’s not actually the situation and the link I posted from National Grid demonstrates how they’re planning for it. That’s before we get to things like ‘vehicle to grid’ where...

    Big battery explosion inside house

    Wait, you don’t have the National Grid where you live? 😳 There were zero changes required to electricity infrastructure to install my home charger, or next doors hot tub, it’s the same requirement. Sure, not everybody has a hot tub, but nor does everybody have an EV so the infrastructure can...

    Big battery explosion inside house

    A very good point. We always seem to go from ‘another e-bike fire’ to ‘about time we banned electric anything, especially cars’ very quickly. As you say, there’s a massive difference between a cheap battery pack being charged with a dumb charger to a properly constructed one with failsafes...
