    Levo Gen 2 Transporting by Towbar - Rain damage?

    Take a look here for some info. not very conclusive. I don’t think rain equals a high powered pressure washer https://www.emtbforums.com/community/threads/hitch-rack-transport-during-rain.14232/ i always use the motor wrap (see the above thread) - drove in very heavy rain for 3 hours a few...

    Levo Gen 2 29er tire size argh what to choose.....

    Hi All, I d like your kind advice. very confused after reading all of this. I m a Swiss noob with a 2020 TL comp (1000 km) - My OEM tires are 29x2,6 both front (butcher grid) and rear (eliminator black diamond). I don't know why it's different from the specs reported by specialized where the TL...

    Levo Gen 2 Levo won't turn on

    Happened twice to me (levo comp 2020) and in my case it was the plastic lid that covers the charging port not being fully closed. It will not allow the TCU to turn on

    Levo Gen 2 Hitch rack transport during rain

    Thule recommends to NOT use it on cars - it’s somewhere on the website. same advice from my Thule dealer. The cover in the picture Is for RV only. I spent quite some time searching for a bike rain cover which can be *reliably* used on cars (SUVs or estate) and found none worthy. Would buy one...

    Levo Gen 2 Hitch rack transport during rain

    it s a fair point, though I noticed after the trip that No water had collected inside the bag. It was just wet mostly on the outside. My intention was not to avoid direct rain on the motor rather large splashes that the car causes by driving over pools of water or very wet segments. That would...

    Levo Gen 2 Hitch rack transport during rain

    Same here, velospace xt3, drove recently in the Alps under heavy rain for 3 hours (including highway segments at 130 km/h) - no damage. As additional protection I used a motor plastic wrap (See photo) just to avoid direct splashes - it’s not waterproof but maybe it helped

    Levo Gen 2 Looking for Turbo Levo in XL size

    Hi, not EU, but central Switzerland. I bought my turbo levo comp from stromvelo Cham (stromvelo.ch) - excellent people and top service (I live nearby) . They still have A few , not many colors / models in XL - the website is normally up to date. ironically, they are meters away from the...

    Levo Gen 2 Mission Control: RENAME BIKE

    I renamed it first thing (but I fiddle with digital apps as a profession :) . No issues for me. Could you elaborate where are the improvements? or you mean the ability to download new firmwares for the display unit? thanks

    Mission Control Mission Control - Which Heart Rate Strap?

    They did not even publish a change log ?. The only known feature is the option to update display firmware OTA for “some bikes” (but they did not bother making a list). So good luck on waiting for the Strava fix :)))

    Mission Control Mission Control - Which Heart Rate Strap?

    I agree that Blevo s UI is very bad. As far as I understand it s a one developer s effort - mostly a hobby. He is not a designer. Blevo in theory does support the Apple Watch (there s a setting in one of the menus) but it seems to require another HR tracking watch app to be running at all times...

    Mission Control Mission Control - Which Heart Rate Strap?

    totally. Several manufacturers (incl. Specialized) don’t bother getting good developers, decent capacity or both and that’s the outcome. a simple UI on an otherwise bleak MC app (check their ratings on apple and google stores - a shame) No integration with Apple Watch, bugs in Strava upload...

    Mission Control Mission Control - Which Heart Rate Strap?

    I tried today OH1 with Blevo in a short 1h ride. It works quite well (unlike the Apple Watch, theoretically supported by Blevo but only if another fitness app is running at all times and recording HR on the watch. Plus Blevo loses HR input often when paired to the AW). Combined with Blevo smart...

    Mission Control Mission Control - Which Heart Rate Strap?

    Hi I have a levo comp 2020, I'd like to purchase the polar OH1 to pair with Specialized MC app on iOS. Anybody has an update if Specialized has managed to fix the bt sensors issues and the data upload to Strava? Any better luck with Blevo and HR bt sensors? iOS or Android? on iOS, It connects...

    The Official BLEvo Thread

    Hi, thanks for the advice. I was trying to do that by maxing the "reactivity of assistance changes" (on an iphone, like in the picture) . Yet, eg., in trail mode that still only increases the assistance by 3% steps and by the time blevo has added 10% the heart rate is already far out of control...
