    Has anyone swapped the forks out on a levo sl yet?

    I’m selling a 2020 Orbea Wild FS M Team, mint condition, size L, one ride only and 12 miles. A few upgrades and full dealer paperwork, for £5700.

    Why are you selling after only one ride?

    For what it’s worth Freeborn have been excellent for both me and for riding mates who also have Levos from them. Turnaround on warranty work is very quick, they try and sort any electrical/motor related issue in three days, and will also update anything else required at the same time.

    But yes, for ebikes, buy local. After getting my levo i’m very happy i didn’t go the YT Decoy route although it seems that the Shimano system has a lower number of issues when compared to the Brose system.

    phatphil – long term injury meant shoulder reconstruction end of the year and I’ll be off MTB until later this summer at best. Felt there was no point holding onto it unused and depreciating for best part of a year when it’s virtually brand new.. 😟

    oops
    bad luck
    very wise though – second hand prices are rubbish
    I’d have it but unfortunately my price range is nearer 4k! so will probably be considering an alloy one or discounted levo good luck with it!

    Why not keep with cube? Try a stereo 140 tm 👍👍😁

    Mrs M has a turbo levo carbon expert, awesome bit of kit and the Brose motor is leagues ahead of the Bosch unit in her 2015 Cube Stereo.

    Slight hijack the work has upped the bike to work scheme to 4000 so I was looking for a new bike and was thinking about this

    https://www.trekbikes.com/gb/en_GB/bikes/mountain-bikes/electric-mountain-bikes/rail/rail-5/p/30037/

    What are the thoughts I want a bike with a good frame warranty, I did ask my sons mate (bike shop worker and MTBer) and he reckoned this was the one to go for with the budget in mind.
    N.B my commute is 5 miles on the flat (tarmac) with one small climb (and a couple of kerbs to bump up)

    OP, assuming you don’t need finance, a Rail 7 should be in budget with a bit of haggling.
