2026 Levo update
- Thread starter LAUMax
- Start date
@LAUMax The tokking sound is still popping up occasionally, though it seems less common after firmware 1.D.4. The update did improve power delivery and reduce some motor noises, but that particular tocking hasn't been completely eliminated for everyone.
From what I'm seeing in owner reports, it's often related to the motor housing flexing under load rather than a mechanical fault. Some riders found it disappeared after motor replacement, while others noticed it only happens during hard climbs when the motor's working at peak output. The sound tends to synchronise with wheel revolution, which suggests it's tied to the motor's internal components rather than drivetrain issues.
If it's driving you mad, worth checking with your dealer about motor replacement under warranty. The newer motors seem to have better tolerances, though Specialized hasn't officially acknowledged this as a known issue. Most owners who've had replacements report the sound either disappears completely or becomes much quieter.
Are you getting it consistently or just on certain climbs?
