    Levo Gen 2 2019 levo motor drag

    The best way to check drag at the pedals is to remove the chain from the front sprocket and turn the crank by hand. Give the crank a good flick in both directions and see if there is any excess drag...cranks stop rotating in less than 1 rotation or so. Problems with the sprag bearings normally...

    Other Mud Guards and Bike Protection Suggestions please

    I used Mudhugger shorty's on both front and rear on my 2019 Turbo Levo. I had to cut the one in the rear to allow it to fit above the cross brace on the seat stays. It has about 2cm of clearance but doesn't cover the lower section near the pivot. I just used some rubber from an old inner...

    Specialized turbo levo comp 2020 - Garmin edgen 830

    Interesting to hear that it is compatible with other systems. Would be interested in hear which systems. It seams that updates at both both Garmin and motor manufacturers continue to expand capabilities and connectivity...but bottom line right now is Garmin's Ebike data screen is not fully...

    Specialized turbo levo comp 2020 - Garmin edgen 830

    Specialized Mission Control does not, nor has it ever, provided for an estimated range display. If you are seeing a field for estimated range then you are most likely using the optional "Ebike" data screen that is part of the Garmin 530/830/1030"s software to be used with Shimano STEPS...

    Levo Gen 2 cost for warranty replacement

    Nope! That is equal to 3hrs labor at $100 an hour for a 30 minute job. A decent Bike mechanic could do a complete teardown/rebuild servicing in that time for less!

    Levo Gen 2 Warranty extension & Firmware Update for all 2019/20 Levo/Kenevo with 2.1 motors

    You are correct in that power is reduced at 15% remaining capacity by the software reducing current to the motor. IMHO This is to both protect the battery as well as extend the remaining range as much as possible. The lower the current draw the higher the voltage,. The higher the voltage the...

    Levo Gen 2 Warranty extension & Firmware Update for all 2019/20 Levo/Kenevo with 2.1 motors

    To go along with what Zimmerfrane is saying, if you look at a discharge graph for a 3500mah 18650 lithium battery you will see that voltage decreases at pretty much a linear rate until around the last 20% of capacity where it starts dropping off sharply. Your perception of less power is...

    Levo Gen 2 Is 2019 Levo Battery compatible with 2020 Levo?

    Both the 2019 504 and 700w/hr batteries will fit my2019-2021 Turbo Levos. Of course with the exception of Levo SLs....

    What travel forks on your Levo?

    You can fit the Charger 2.1 to the Revelation. I haven't done it yet... waiting for a discount but I have fit a 160 mm DebonAir 2021 and changed to Maxima Plush 3wt oil in my Revelation Charger RC. Definitely an improvement over stock! Will change to SKF wiper seals once I get the 2.1 and will...

    Mission Control Mission Control - Which Heart Rate Strap?

    Well it turns out that you cannot connect a HRM directly to Strava, according to a Heart Rate Insight page that is part of the new Analysis page on the app. IMHO Strava has made this change to move the liability to the HRM manufacturers by only importing data from the Manufacturers app. I...

    Mission Control Mission Control - Which Heart Rate Strap?

    I purchased the OH1 for use with MC/Blevo and Strava. I have been able to get a live HR on MC but none of the data will transfer to Strava nor is there any history available. It doesn't work with Strava either. You have to use Polar's Beat app and sync the ride data from there to Strava which...

    2019 Turbo Levo Owners Thread

    For future reference, Boost refers to the 110mm hub width vs the previous standard of 100mm spacing of the front wheel and 148mm vs 142mm in the rear.

    Mission Control Mission Control - Which Heart Rate Strap?

    I just purchased a Polar OH1 armband monitor as it is listed as one of the compatible models in the Blevo manual and should also work with Mission Control. We'll see when it gets here ....

    Levo SL Gen 1 32lb levo sl

    The max current of the SL is 7A but looking at all the rides posted the riders are getting about 1.5-2hrs use out of an extender battery which would translate to and average discharge rate of .5 -.67C which is less of a compromise. I agree that the lifespan of the smaller battery will be...

    Back to riding after 15 years away, 2020 Levo first week thoughts

    I found that my air leak, which sometimes showed as leaking thru a spoke hole, was a problem with the valve stem not sealing well. I ended up having to pull the tire and re-seat the stem with a little sealant around the base when installing. I have also fixed a slow leak on a front tire that...

    Evoc FL Trail E-Ride Backpack

    What would be great is for Specialized to drop 10 cells from a 504WHr battery and give us a smaller 378WHr as a range extender battery that would be great in a backpack!
