Steven Knoetze (sk27) Posted October 31, 2018 Share Shouldn't this be under chit chat seeing as a motorbike was stolen?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shebeen Posted October 31, 2018 Share interesting, since the Levo has an app that is required to operate the thing. can spez track it down when it's next paired? would be kind of obvious to build that sort of theft protection in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't need the app. It's only there for more functionality and changing settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are only about 30 Specialized shops in SA which would have to get them in. Not sure if the chargers are being posted to sell second hand though.

You could prolly find an old laptop charger that'll do the job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dev null Posted November 1, 2018 Share When the Thule salesman showed me how my new Thule rack allows bikes to be locked on rack, I told him to skip that part of the presentation, as the locks are worthless. I swear that if the take the locks off, less bikes will get stolen. But then again, stupid can't be fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
