Your Colorado shops sounds like they may be out of touch on the Levos. When I picked up my 2019 and asked about the sponge at my LBS here in SoCal (Orange Cycles) @Al Boneta showed me that he had already installed it. He had a bag of sponges from Specialized ready to put in the bikes that came...
Why do you "presume this isn't right"? IIRC, 22 clicks is standard for that damper.
Here's a rough guide to settings Fox recommends (I prefer more damping) -
Nice work, @khorn! I don't have the time to be so thorough and prefer a quick and easy waxing method. Maxima spray on chain lube worked great on my motos in the past and should be good enough for a bicycle. Only takes ~5min, so you can do it frequently. Chain comes out looking like new. (I...
I picked up a used EVOC FR Trail Blackline pack thanks to the recommendations of Tori and James_MTB. Great pack, heavy but super sturdy, lots of storage.
The Levo 504Wh battery is a snug fit, but stays in place riding (and crashing :eek:).
Mrs levity made a padded case and added some velcro...
Thank you, Paolo. I apologize for not making myself clear.
Is BLEvo “100% Acceleration” on the 2019 Levo the same as “Race Acceleration” on the 2018 Levo with firmware v. 2.22.x?
Or, is BLEvo “100% Acceleration” on the 2019 Levo the same as the default acceleration on the 2018 Levo with...
How much can BLEvo control “Acceleration” on the 2019 Levo with TCU v. 2.019?
I have a 2018 Levo and am considering getting a 2019 model in order to take advantage of the new 700WH battery. My early 2018 model runs battery firmware v. 2.22.3 that allows setting Acceleration from Eco to Race. I...
Last summer I posted a short note in "The other bikes thread", but here's some more info:
2018 Vado 6 (US model, Class III, 28mph max speed assist)
motor - 1.2S strong and smooth, but no app to change tuning
Eco/Sport/Turbo are fixed at 20/50/100% which I find OK...
Wow, you'd think Mike's would bend over backwards to help a customer like you! Obviously, I don't know the whole story but it seems that at some point they should have just handed you a new replacement bike and dealt with Specialized on their own. It doesn't reflect well on your Mike's branch...
Go ahead and try it at 150mm before changing the travel to see what you think. The BikeYoke will help a little, but I don't think it will be enough (I used a BikeYoke on a previous 6fattie).
As you suggest I tested my Levo at 150mm with the 29x3 wheel and moved two 5mm spacers from below the...
Like you I use a small iPhone SE/iPhone 5 (you can pick up a used or refur'b model for US$50-80). I have mine in a protective case made by Rokform (Mountable, Protective cases & Accessories for Apple iPhone and Galaxy.). The case clips onto a special handlebar mount that's very solid (mine's...
Mrs levity and I did exactly that on our 2018 Levos. We had previously put 29" front wheels and 3.0 tires on our Stumpjumper 6-Fatties (keeping the OEM 27.5x3 wheels/tires in the back) and liked it so much we did the same with the e-bikes.
Levo "79er" specs:
front: 29er rim, 30mm inner width...
Welcome, lookieuk! You didn't mention the Kenevo and I'm not sure wha Kiwi "grade 4 to 5 tracks" are, but here's a Kenevo on Red Bull Rampage type terrain in Utah. Seems "quite aggressive" and should allow you "to explore as well".
Vidéo : Marshal Mullen et le Kenevo à l’assaut de la Rampage -...
DOH, thank you for not calling me an idiot, doc! That should teach me not to post before having a second cup of coffee. Yes, the stats give the data at individual points as you move the pointer along the trail. A cool feature I had not anticipated. Thank you, and kudos to Paolo, again!
Paolo,
The new map feature in BLEvo is great. However, in the new iOS version the statistics listed below the map at the bottom of the page do not appear to be updated during the ride or even after the ride has ended. As shown in the image below the values reported appear to be from the first...
That's surprising, 111°F doesn't seem high or worrisome.
Checked the last few of rides on my 2018 Levo, air temp 70-80°F
These included climbing 2500-3500 ft, often in Turbo mode (firmware v.22, 70+% power)
BLEvo reported no problems, max motor temps 125-136°F
(average motor temp was 107°F on...
