+1. Zero noise here. I dialed down my power settings so my bike feels like it did pre-update.
the extra power derived from the update is meaningless to me
I'm having the same problem all of a sudden with my Vado. I have no problem connecting to my Levo.
I'm starting to wonder if Specialized has a more pervasive glitch needing correction on their end.
good call- out, which raises questions about the intended use for this bike. In my terrain (Colorado Rockies) a 160 fork wouldn't be sufficient for my needs. For those with more rolling terrain well managed with a 160 fork, a 200 rotor up front should be fine. I use 203/180 on my 160mm pedal...
Mavens have great stopping power. The 220/200 setup on my Turbo Levo works great. I found the stock pads to be obnoxiously grabby so switched to ceramic MTX brake pads (which I use on my other bikes) which gives me just what need: gobs of power with improved modulation.
All the Mavens have...
What's the weight difference from the 800W battery?
Sometime I ride only with my range extender battery - agreed, it feels like a completely different bike. But the extender throttles power and its external water bottle mount design is somewhat unseemly
EDIT: Google says it's a 1 kg, 2.2 lb...
PNW make a nice cartridge style post. No need to top off the air and PNW is responsive to potential warranty issues.
I installed a Wolftooth Resolve on my Levo a few months ago and am thrilled with it. The low stack height allowed me to get 30mm more drop than the stock 150. It's impressively...
Me: very satisfied Turbo Levo owner with over 700 miles since July 2025 and zero issues. It's a fabulous bike.
Motor:
I ride steep technical terrain in Colorado. While I don't dispute higher power numbers from the Avinox motor, I've never ever felt like I needed more juice from my Turbo Levo...
CO rider here with Levo Gen 4.
Summer/Fall 2025 I did a number of long distance, high alpine rides, high vertical rides. The stock battery is mega. I have a range extender for "just in case" purposes but didn't really dig much into it's power. For giggles, I'll sometimes remove the stock...
