I updated my motor to the 4.71 firmware before the weekend. Had a session at a regular spot and noticed a tangible increase in the level of assistance in trail mode. Unfortunately it was accompanied by a similarly noticeable drop in range.
Usually the bike is on the Explorer preset for that...

Already seen someone swapped the rear suspension on their 2017 Levo to 2018 to raise the B.B. along with increasing front travel with a longer air shaft.
