So I have just passed the 2000 miles on my levo, and I thought I would post a not so little story of how I have got on with it since November 2017. Originally I was having the new Stumpjumper but having had a go on my sister-in-laws Pendleton e-bike I was intrigued as to what an E-mountain bike...
Hi all,
I'm about to take the plunge and buy my first e-bike. I have decided on the Specialized Turbo Levo, however I am torn between the following 3 options.
Base
Comp
Comp Carbon
Of course some will say buy the comp carbon if you can afford it, but i think that's a little to simplistic...
I was just in Freeborn Bikes in Horsham, and have figured out why no one seems to have any decent stock of Specialized - basically they ordered most of the UK stock!
The have 2018 Levos and Kinevos in a lot of sizes with some serious discounts, also Cube and Da Vinci's.
Well worth checking out...
My levo was at 100% battery health last week I charged it today to ride and the health dropped to 94%. I store it with 70% storage charge always not sure what has happened it’s only had 8 charges so far. Anyone else having this issue? I’ve never depleted the battery below 20% so would have hoped...
Hi having a bit of a posting frenzy at the moment hope this is of use. Love the Levo however really wanted to stay on a 29er, as a taller rider and having ridden them for a number of years it’s just my preference. I managed to get my Levo at a bargain price so not complaining. I stumbled across...
So it occurred to me that displays , computers and GPS units are very vulnerable to damage if you need to flip your bike over to do a repair
So i made these out of a bit of 40mm dia plastic rod and some 22mm copper pipe clips .
Bit crude and im sure an engineer would weep at it design but they...
Let me explain.
The Problem, this is after a few rides, washing with Muc off and light pressure garden hose. This is as recommended by Specialized Rider care UK, I had email correspondence with them I can post the emails for those that wish to see. Suffice to say this is the procedure they use...
I saw I video where someone had the battery percentage on their wahoo head unit. Anyone know if the same is available as a single data field from garmin connect?
Took the kenevo out yesterday on my local off-piste trails, this bike is made for this steep and techy stuff! Absolutely loved it and my riding buddy's all now want one ?
Drop a like if you can, trying to prove how bad ass e bikes are! next stop bpw challenge!
Hi Guys,
So ordered a Levo XL and its a 1 1/2 month wait. Driving me nuts, guy told me there always in short supply, did most people have to wait?
Ordered some new pedals and bits for it, but that didn't pass much time :(
what is it with these tyre manufacturers
specialized hillbilly 2.6 measures 2.34
specialized Butcher grid 2.6 measures 2.32
maxxis shorty 2.5 meausures 2.46 nearly maxxis keep trying
the only tyres I have that seem to be consistent to their given measurement is Schawlbe
Hey guys, I'm a recent convert to eMTB's - and I pick up my new Turbo Levo tomorrow . . . though I have to do so after work and I'll barely get a chance to ride it until Thursday. Anyway, I tend to make a few videos of my experiences and I thought I would share. I'm just doing this for a bit of...
Well first ride tomorrow for me on the new Levo cant wait to hit some trails and climbs heading to Keswick and Honnister Lake District whole new experience for me but looking forward ??
So after 600km on the Levo most of it being wet and muddy i’ve had to replace a chain, rear brake pads and have the motor out to clean as there was a loud creaking noise. I have also broken a rear spoke.
Is it unusual to take the motor out so often?
Should the chain be replaced sooner rather...
Hey guys. I've had a Merida e160-900E on order for the past 3 months . . . and had put down a deposit on the bike. The bike has been constantly delayed, there are supply issues with the model and demand is really high. I spoke to the importers here in Australia yesterday, and they are also...
So the Kenevo that I’m using has SRAM Code brakes. Really spongy feel as well as the lever going right back to the bars.
Took it to a local bike shop near where I’m staying who bled them but noticed that 2 of the rear pistons were jammed and also lots of air in the system.
Also I’ve almost...
