Levo Gen 2 Why's oil coming out by the motor case?

[righton]

2020 Turbo Levo. Is there oil inside this area? Or this oil came from elsewhere? There's no oil drip in the frame or shock area. The oil is just in this casing seeping out. (Photos attached)

Well, it's not meant to come out, if it has come out. If you're sure it's come out, and not from another source - I'd have it looked at under warranty. The oil will need to be replaced at the least. I have a history with motorcycles, admittedly more speed involved. It was often hard to discern where a leak came from - much easier if it is a static object.

Didn't know they had oil inside them. You sure this is not coming from somewhere else?

Is it from the dropper seatpost?

Im pretty sure there is no oil inside the motor, belt drives are not lubricated with oil...

That or the shock ... Oh, could be brake fluid too but that would be really noticeable for most. @Zimmerframe not so much as he apparently uses trees, rocks and other things to stop.

Yes , he's pioneering the new Rock Paper scissors brake products ?

Well it's definitely not from your chain !!

As said check the seat post , shock ?maybe but you would have lost all the damping by now ..so the rear would be bouncing like a pogo stick

I was hoping he uses wax

for sure it's not coming from the shock because i was checking the frame.

not the shock, i just checked frame and shock area if there's any drip. but could be the seat post, i'll check and report back.

i'll check the dropper, that could be possible. i'll report back once i verify.
