Carbon Roval wheels seem to have alot of creaking in the front wheel. Kinda of checked the spokes seemed ok. Not a wheel expert. Has anyone else had a lot of trouble with wheel noises on the expert carbon wheels?

Message me if you fancy meeting up anytime ?Mostly between Plymouth and princetown and lots of woods near Plymouth and Yelverton. Obviously pretty close mate ?
Sure will. I’ve got a great route from Yelverton if you fancy some great single track.Message me if you fancy meeting up anytime ?
Anyone fitted hope brakes yet to the SL ?
Has anyone experienced a rattle from their Fox 34 Factory fork? Mine rattles a bit unless it’s in the closed setting. Any advice on what to torque?
so far I’m not at all impressed with the Fox shocks. My rear shock is leaking oil. My last 3 mountain bikes had Rockshox - no issues in thousands of km of riding...
YES crazy rattly since I owned it, until TODAY.Has anyone experienced a rattle from their Fox 34 Factory fork? Mine rattles a bit unless it’s in the closed setting. Any advice on what to torque?

Sounded like the headset or fork rattling to bits. But I isolated it to the G2 caliper. All I did to fix it was spread the brake pad retaining spring a bit, to hold the pads well away from the disc. More or less totally solved it.
Btw900 & 890 grams..... but who’s counting.....
FRONT TIRE Butcher, GRID TRAIL casing, GRIPTON® compound, 29x2.3" REAR TIRE Eliminator, GRID TRAIL casing, GRIPTON® compound, 2Bliss Ready, 29x2.3"
I’ll be switching to racing ray and Ralph 625/595g once my other wheels get in for dry summer trails and my 18km ride to work on trails (about 1k on road) yes I’m bragging about my ride to work!!!

Yeah I noticed that. DHR2 2.4 WT Exo compound weighed exactly 1000gBtw
I actually weighed my tires when swapping tubeless
butcher grid trial 1040g
Eliminator grid trail 1016g
pretty big discrepancy

Hey @Rob Hancill , can we split this thread into sub-forum threads? There are way too many topics in one thread. We are at 56 pages already. Some care about batt range: they should have their own sub-thread, then there are mechanical issues, weight questions, etc. It’s too confusing to have them all together.
Just start new threads within the Spesh section as you see fit.Levo SL performance (all things performance)
Levo SL questions concerns (all things Q&c related)
would be cool.

I’ve got that rattle too. Definitely the pad clip.I thought I had the same problem as you:
I spoke to silverfish (UK Fox repair shop) and they said to send them in as a warranty job, they serviced them and said no fault found. I now suspect that it is the guilde R caliper, if you take the caliper off and shake it you may hear the pads and spreader rattle, mine has about 1mm of moment around the pin which I am sure is the culprit. Like someone posted if you widen the spreader it helps however I still got the noise on today’s ride after a bit.
I am not that keen on the fox forks either after previously using Lyriks, however I despise the Guide R brakes even more. XT 4 pots being ordered this week.
Yes, exactly. Is was amazing how much noise it was making before.Interesting! I had wondered about the G2 pad springs, as they do rattle when tapped with my finger. None of my other SRAM brakes (Guide, Code, Red) do that.
So you undid the small screw at the top and removed the spring plate, widened it, then put it back?
I have not check but my guess is about 800 miles; as I still ride my other ebike and non-ebike. Same here, no issues so far and loving it as well.@Bencab how many miles have you done in total. Must be more than most of us. I’m just coming up on a 1000 miles and still no issues to report. Still loving it.
Been trying to get a discount off a comp carbon, best so far is 10% off, my LBS whom I've known and bought bikes from for 25 years thinks I'm mad and that I should wait a few more months for the new bikes, not sure what to do now!
