I do have the dropper but I swapped out the stock remote for a Wolf Tooth. You’ll want to get the one that fits Shimano I-Spec EV.
I kept the SRAM shifter and got an adapter that goes from I-Spec EV to the SRAM Matchmaker (Wolf Tooth makes this as well)
The remote really only fits at one...
I put the 4-piston Shimano XT's (M8120) on my bike tonight and found that the mode controller for your left thumb fits PERFECTLY in these. It's like Shimano custom made them for the Levo controller. They added a little bracket that sits against the handlebar for stability:
I figured with my...
I mean, the Lupine is specifically marketed as for this Brose motor, it seems unlikely that it would raise errors...although Rider Tech did say they've seen some. I wonder if anyone has contacted Lupine to ask if they've seen reports of that as well.
If the motor is just always sending them 6V why be specific about about a "front" and "back" port? Maybe there's a protocol you can send through the controller cable to turn them on/off?
Ahh yeah, I wasn't event thinking of wired ones, that's even easier. Do those have on/off switches on the lights themselves? Other than the whole voiding-your-warranty thing, and how to route the power wire, it seems like a great way to add a light to your bike without worrying about yet another...
And it's just a constant 6V as long as the bike is turned on?
I wonder if there are any ~6V lights out there where you could remove the battery and wire into that port. Your typical small user-replaceable lion battery (CR2 or CR123) is going to be 3V nominal so any light that takes two of those...
I found this on page 148 of the service workbook:
Front/rear lights... interesting. And one called "E-Bike". Is this maybe for future functionality where you'll actually turn lights on and off via some switches in the cockpit? Anyone try probing these ports to see if there's any voltage present?
Thanks for the zip tie reminder! The chain tool has a tire lever lip on the end, although it's aluminum so it might scratch up the wheel. I'm tubeless so if something bad enough happens where I need to remove the tire to fix it, I'm pretty much screwed at that point!
I posted this the other day: 3D printed a tubeless patch/chain repair kit - EMTB Forums
The 3D printed case worked great but I started wanting to add a couple more items and it got to be unruly to keep adding more slots and printing another copy! So I went back to basics and made a little...
I got a 2020 Specialized Turbo Levo Comp last week and am LOVING IT. I put a SWAT tool in the steerer tube and then the only thing missing was a way to patch my tubeless tires if I get a puncture. And, although the SWAT tool holds a master link, the chance that I'll be able to open a master link...
The big difference between the base and Comp is that 700w battery! One of those alone costs $1000+ That was the big decider for me. I plan on upgrading most of the components on the bike as time goes by.
Just got a 2020 Turbo Levo Comp this week and loving it! Previous to this I had (well, still have) a DIY ebike with a Bafang BBS02 (750w) and I built several 52v battery packs for it. It was attached to an old K2 Zed 4.0 hardtail. Going from that to the Levo is like going from a Honda Civic to a...
