    Levo Gen 2 Importance of shocks maintenance

    Yes you can. Don’t attempt to service the forks damper cartridge, just do a lowers and air spring service. For the shock, only do an air can service. Fork service manual here...

    Levo Gen 2 Snapped upper rear shock bolt

    As someone who’s been the warranty assessor for a national distributor of industrial equipment, (don’t get excited, not bike related goods), I’ve seen this play out many times. From time to time I’d come across damage done by a dealer, of goods worth low 6 figures, where the most expensive...

    Levo Gen 2 Snapped upper rear shock bolt

    I used Time-Sert exclusively a decade ago doing Subaru engine repairs, specifically ej20 and ej25 when a block with stripped thread(s) would come my way. I was once unmovable in my conviction they were the best. Maybe they were back then, but more recent testing seems to suggest they have...

    The New Official BLEvo Thread

    Yep, the BMS is doing Coulomb Counting, discharging/charging current is measured and integrated over time to calculate the amount of energy remaining inside the battery. The BMS compares theoretical to measured and returns the battery health number, starting at 100% and degrading from there as...

    Levo Gen 2 Are Brose & Specialized Fixing Their Motor Problem ?

    Retrofit kits are on my r&d list of things to work on. All motors out there so far fail in some fundamental regard. Some have plastic gears running against metal gears with grease that flings off inside 10 mins of use. Some have belts that are too narrow, with pitches too small, with non...

    Kenevo Gen1 SPECIALIZED, More batteries damages due manufacturing defects

    regardless of what the BMS is doing, the cells are destroyed. Even brief periods spent below 2v per cell is dangerous. The anode copper current collector is dissolved into the electrolyte. This increases the self discharge rate of the cell however, as the voltage is increased again above 2...

    Kenevo Gen1 SPECIALIZED, More batteries damages due manufacturing defects

    How low were the cells? What is the LED on the pcb next to the renesas R5F2134 doing? Will pack turn on from the on button?

    Using Seasuckers here too, no dramas. As to uv issues, all carbon is covered by a clear coat. The clear coat provides UV protection, but still don’t leave the bike in the sun when not moving through the air. On the roof of a car on a hot day, if you stop, seek shade.

    Kenevo Gen1 Kenevo Comp 2020 - engine bearings?

    Yep, axevo had stock too that I’ve bought previously, but I have also worked out how to turn down the damage in the lathe and sleeve with a hardened blank and grind back down to size. Wanted to use spray welding (sexy) but sleeving is just as good.

    Kenevo Gen1 Kenevo Comp 2020 - engine bearings?

    The roller bearings are unprotected from water and dust. Once the spindle becomes damaged that the roller bearing runs on, it’s new motor time. Spindles are not available as a spare part

    Levo Gen 2 Dispute with Specialized

    Who did the install? The light was integrated into the CANbus by splicing into the cables between charge port and motor? Do you have some photos to share? The motor has a pair of small 2 pin connectors for lights. These are rated at 12v 1 amp and 12v 0.5 amps for lights. The M99 Pro does not...

    Levo Gen 2 Turbo Levo charger ratio ?

    Gen1 used AN49511A battery management ic. Balancing on charge only. Not a charge pump active balancer. Balancing tolerance window is not adjustable, or threshold adjustable. Very basic. Only balances above 4.12v I believe, so terminating pack charge at less then 42v will not let AN49511A...

    Levo Gen 3 Turbo Levo 2022 - Carbon wheels?

    Personally, I’ll never ride aluminium rims again for pleasure. Commuting, sure. Off road MTB, carbon everything thank you. My advice would be to find a local wheel builder, and look at using quality hubs like DT Swiss, Hope, industry9, onyx. Spokes from DT or Sapim. J hook. Get spares...

    Levo Gen 3 What tyres have you switched to?

    Magic Mary 27.5 x 2.60 Super Downhill ADDIX Ultra Soft. I’ve put GOOD tires on small cars that cost less is the only part that hurts in this situation. I’ve come to hate silly online sellers websites that make it close to impossible to sort though for the correct tire. I’ve always found I...

    Levo Gen 2 Performance Line Bearings - What a service!

    Also, the drive side case bearing, while labelled 6807 isn’t actually 35 x 47 x 7. It’s a custom sized, 34 x 47 x 7.
