Motorhome garage storage solution - Knaus Live I 700 MEG
Short video to show the storage solution designed and fitted to our Knaus
All work done by Phil @ www.dubcraft.co.uk/
The garage was large enough but getting all of our kit away and also carrying our 2 electric mountain bikes needed a bespoke solution and as Dubcraft had done a great job converting our VW a few years ago we had no hesitation in commissioning them to do the job
Let us know what you think in the comments.

Nice video and a bike too .
Cracking solution this. A list of links to the hardware used would be amazing if you could please?
Shocking video please don't do any more - what was the point -
Looks good, thx for sharing. Where did you get the grey storage boxes?
Wow! That looks amazing! Fantastic work.
Next review a Ferrari by doing the school run at 20mph. Then talk about the fractions and downforce whilst eating a chocolate orange.
Can you let me have the link to Dovecraft please
When I looked up the rear mud guards I didn’t see anything with a glossy finish.
Pointless
Some good ideas thank you
After 65 or so ocean cruises all duly video'd, photo'd and edited, we decided to try a river cruise so we have booked a Rhine cruise on the Spirit of the Rhine (end Nov 2023) and went looking for videos, photos & reviews of the ship and the itinerary. Happy to see your video - it appears to be our sort of ship, on board experience and scenery and ports (particularly wine related stops - on behalf of my wife of course). Also interesting to see other people's video edits - if you don't mind me saying, I always take my photos in 16:9 landscape to match the video - also useful if just making a slideshow for the TV (filled up 100s of albums years ago!).
Was the garage storage hugely expensive ? Looks fabulous excellent use of space 😊
Nice Job well done by the look of it. Food for thought , Thanks for sharing Helen and Martin
Want my 3.36 back!
great bike! Keep it up
do you have to buy an ebike specific fork or is just a standard fox 36 ok ? thank you
There seems to be no scratches at all on the motor shield. Do you ride it? 😂
I washed my Turbo Levo, dried it thoroughly, rode it three days later, and the next night I charged it to full capacity, and the TCU won't turn on. Red and blue lights popped up indicating the battery can't be found. Really?! 🤦♀️🙄
Sounds expensive
Also looks like he took his battery out when he washed the bike
Yep, shoe storage link please
That’s a brilliant job they have done thanks for sharing have you got a link for the shoe storage please and safe travels 😊
Learned nothing from this.
Except that he films his bathroom time
Where did you stop, we are going up there in the summer, from Uckfield 🙂
what repair stand is that? looks like it holds the heavy levo pretty well
Great job. Looks great!
Did you notice if you can park up close to the play area great vlog by the way
Great build! I customized mine also. Thinking a smashpot conversion is going on my Fox 36 on it for next season.
Some people broke the coil shock on turbo levo ebikes, because of the frame bike design. I was thinking to swich to an coil shock on the turbo levo, but the review said that I will damage the bike and the shock. I will keep the fox float x2.
Most beautiful ride I've seen. Love the contrast with the $5 chair.
Glad you enjoyed my food :)
We’ve been a couple of times and the food has been great. 👍
Hey guys, great tour of the campervan site. We always find this interesting to see others and compare. Lovley. We have liked and subscribed. Chelsea and Mike
Thanks guys - say hi if we ever stay at the same site 👍
@@Dawsontheroad we will do and thank you for the sub
Oi you’ve flogged it !
Yeh - but it has been replaced - don’t worry!!
Nice mate
Thanks - would be fun on the right bike!
I am in that same situation with s works . Not paying £15000 , not having SRAM eagle and not having SRAM brakes . I'm contemplating XT transmission and cassette ( oil slick ) Magura brakes Mavic Rims + Shwalbe plus some other goodies . Totally love your colour scheme and nice extras too , great looking dare I say it stunning bike . Cheers for the info 👍
Sweet upgrades. Have you looked into the cascade link? Also heard ppl are breaking coils
Hi mate - yes, the cascade link is good (was going to put one on but just sold the bike complete 2 weeks ago). I think the broken coils are more to do with the shock than the linkage and the frame to be honest. I’m quite heavy and had no issues with the ext (not heard of anyone else with issues either)
It looks absolutely amazing!
Not sure if I agree with all your mods ... Think the s-works is way better in components. there are some personal items which i understand but there are some for which I have some questions ... anyhow it remains a personal thing. I think it's a flashy bike but would never ride one like this ... but ok this is personal
Fantastic looking bike, solid upgrades. Thanks for sharing.
A Very pretty bike
Thanks Martin
Very nice. Where did you get the large specialized down tube sticker from, it’s great ?
Thanks Alan. A mate used to do moto x graphics and he did it for me but he’s stopped now so I’m stuck for a new one too.
I don't know why people feel the need to put all of these sticker kits on the bike, makes it look like a Giant Trance or something, it really doesn't look 'Pro' it resembles a paint job you'd get on a bike from Halfords, fucking go faster stripes and logos everywhere. There's a distinct reason that Specialized didn't do this at the factory and this is because it looks shit! As for 38's they make a massive difference, I've got some on a Kenevo which I swapped from 36's and they're much better. As for Roval wheels being a bag of shit, I really don't know where you got that from as there's fuck all wrong with em. As far as I can tell you've taken off perfectly good perfectly good parts and replaced them with expensive parts that do exactly the same thing. Odds are you have now sold this bike and lost a massive amount of money in the process.
Thanks for your comments. Yes, I still have the bike and the frame is in great condition because if the ‘Halfords’ stickers that are on the frame (which have been changed a few times to keep it looking fresh. Kenevo might need 38’s assuming you actually ride it like it was intended but 36 is plenty for a Levo (it was only the 80’s when motorcycle trials bikes had 36mm forks so who are you really kidding (Kenevo with 38’s is probably over bikes for 99% of riders - especially keyboard hero’s) Roval wheels - 2 sets with flat spots and another where the burr inside the rim tore a tyre makes me speak from experience- I ride in the Lake District and Scotland where rocks kill them. DT Swiss have now been perfect for 2 years. Anyway - thanks for that now jog on and comment on someone else’s video - or even better - go ride your bike.
@@Dawsontheroad You don't get more rocky or gnarly than where I ride in South Wales mate, Rovals are fine. You should have just wrapped it if you wanted to keep it fresh looking. It's a nice bike, however the decals cheapen it.
@@khareshamutanti3632 we're all entitled to our own opinion - the wife's Levo is wrapped and I had mine done too but it's too thin and peeled off too easily so back to stickers of Moto thickness that do the job fine. glad you are happy with the Rovals, the praxis cranks and the sram brakes - they would be the first things that |I would bin on any bike I bought (that is from the experience of failure and spoiled rides and not a vanity thing.
@@Dawsontheroad I didn't bother wrapping my 2021 Kenevo at all, just couldn't be arsed. I've ragged the fuck out of it and it still looks nice plus the cranks and wheels have been fine. Had to change the coil as the yolk kept snapping them, the only coil you can run on a Kenevo is an EXT funnily enough, but bollocks to dropping that amount of money so run an X2. The Z1's at 180mm didn't really work either, especially when pushed so 38's were a must.
Wow she is absolutely beautiful what an amazing build!
Great looking bike. I like some of the graphics you had done but I was unable to catch what company Jason that did the graphics was with? Would you mind replying where I could reach him. I live in Canada so alternatively if you or anyone of you subscribers might be aware of anyone in Canada that might be able to manufacture similar orange Specialized letterings similar to what you have on your bike it would be appreciated.
Hi. Unfortunately he has stopped doing them now. Sorry
Very nice upgrades!!! I want to upgrade the brakes to Hope but I am not sure how hard it will be to install a brake hose for the rear. Does the Levo come with a brake hose sleeve for internal routing? If yes did you just pull the old hose out then install the new one OR did you splice the hoses together to allow one to follow the other in starting from the back caliper side to the front...
Hi. There is no sleeve so the options are to remove the old one, drop the motor and re thread the new one through the frame and swing arm or try and splice the 2 together and pull them through (although it is tight and there may be some cable retaining clips that prevent it easily pulling through. Hope that helps
Nice colour combination 👍
What a sharp bike man!!
Thanks Shane 👍
Good job. Good fun changing bits.
Hi - yes, building and upgrading is almost as much fun a riding 😎
That is an incredible enjoyable bike 👌🏻
Sick color scheme. The orange accents really pop on the blue frame.
Thanks 👍
I grew up with Ade & his brother Dave in Redditch, top guys! Keep up the good vids👍🏻
I’ve known them both since we were kids in Bmx bikes - do I know you??
@@Dawsontheroad not sure, went to Bridley moor high and did schoolboy mx with Wyre Forrest, Sandwell heathens and west mids clubs. Craig Giles
@@craiggiles4657 not sure Craig - I mainly did BMX as a kid so perhaps our paths didn’t cross
@@Dawsontheroad say hi to Ade from me if you see him
@@craiggiles4657 will do - I’m still in touch with Dave too so will mention you to them both.
Hi, was the burgtec chainring a direct replacement? Or did you have to buy anything else? Just ordered mine
Direct replacement 👍
