    Charging methods - battery health

    We are always arguing about it. The high temps affects when charging so it's better to charge when battery is at ambien temp, ideally 20º. And short charges in my opinion. As per short charges do not heat battery and let's say impact less in battery quemicals. As per Specialized states after 300...

    Battery Health

    That's 84%. we have to accept that batteries have a lifecycle; that's it. And are expensive :( . I'd like someone using them long term 2 years or more could tell us about the experience. So when to change? 75%? 60%? So range is affected of course and we will reach a range where we would need to...

    Levo / Kenevo (gen1) Range Extender thread

    I tested today the Danny's range extender, 252wh bottle so now it's possible riding about 100kms with 2000mtrs climbing ?. Regular trainings permits you reach home with nearly half and lot or margin to play. Also USB charger on top is very useful for the mobile, I use one htc10 I have for...

    Levo 2019 motor noise

    If you want to check if your bike is affected just raise the bike to avoid rear tire to touch floor, push walk assist, raise gears to the larger cog, and listen ... Use blevo to set speed at max. In the 2018 it will get this uphill high torque sound, pretty acceptable, and in the affected 2019...

    Are carbon rims worth it on EMTBs?

    Just personal preference for my pov, cosmetics... You only feel the difference when lighter and stiffer...and we all know that stiffness doesn't relay to rim only.

    Levo 2019 motor noise

    Thanks for the answer, the motor should be at less in the same noise levels of 2018 bike. Which is acceptable, imperceptible in the most of the situations and very reasonable. I have cancelled the purchase to replace my 2018 sworks for that reason and dealers do not inform. In fact I tried to...

    I think you didn't read me well. I said that for long periods you should discharge at medium levels. But previously you have to charge it all. I know how to take care of lithium packs as per I have lots of them in pretty good health. Of course BMS is key.

    Battery Health

    I'm on the 40 charge and battery is now 92% which means 465wh. I use blevo to get that details about wh in full charge. So I don't know if it's normal or not. What I noted is that level is stabilized. I'm not agree with people saying the right thing is not to charge full. That's simply not...

    2019 Specialized Turbo Levo. All the details confirmed S-Works PICS

    Geometry is pretty similar, another matter is the design. Taking this asymmetrical approach to get more rigidity (I'd like to see % of win here as per the old in carbon with it's thick build is very rigid)

    2019 Specialized Turbo Levo. All the details confirmed S-Works PICS

    Geometry is pretty similar to 2018. For me the wins are: the better battery integration, so you have a cleaner downtube, dimensions are pretty similar, now looks more rounded but volumes are the same, and the improvement in the motor size which makes it look bit cleaner. Of course having a 700wh...

    2019 Specialized Turbo Levo. All the details confirmed S-Works PICS

    Good point, battery management system is something to keep in mind. But I think there will no be mayor impact if number of cells and current is the same.

    2019 Specialized Turbo Levo. All the details confirmed S-Works PICS

    To reach 720wh with the same space the just need 3,6v 5,000mA cells. Battery structure is 4 groups of 10 cells so battery is 36v nominal current. BH declared to have 5,000mAh cells (21700 Samsung cells are 4,800mA they are.may using another brand) so for me an skilled person could modify the...
