Just purchased a new Levo Expert 23 model at 40% discount and looking forward to getting out on the weekend.
I had problems with my last Specialized so went back to a normal bike for 18 months (to hard). I am looking for any tips on what to do and what not to do.
I was talking to a guy in Coed y Brenin hire shop a couple year back and he said hang them up after use and stick a fan on them, worth doing?

In the past 5+ years I’ve submerged my eMTB and myself many times. I also ride in any type of weather, with the same motor. So far so good. 😊

Some dialectric grease may help prevent water ingress for certain electrical connections. But I only apply dialectic grease around the motor plugs (the rubber ribs) and not the electrical pins or contact surfaces.

Remember, if water can get in…it must get out. Or be able to evaporate. My eMTB usually drip-dries in the bike cave after washing or rides.
