    Levo Gen 3 Gen 3 latest update - AXS gear field not working

    Moving the mech next to the TCU didn't work for me, but shifting back and forth as recommended by @MM5K worked fine. Go figure.

    Levo Gen 3 Specialized Gen 3 2022 Levo Megathread!

    Wow, it worked! I would never have guessed at such an odd solution. Many thanks Rob! FWIW, I updated a KSL and a Levo. The KSL had a Varia paired up, and the Levo had an HR sensor, Varia, and AXS paired up to it. None of these things were active at any time during any of the updates. The KSL...

    New Bosch 2022 Motor System (Bosch Smart System) Announced

    FFS! I suppose it shouldn't be surprising by now that they finally make a mini remote, and it's backwards compatible with absolutely nothing.

    Levo Gen 3 Specialized Gen 3 2022 Levo Megathread!

    No luck getting the update to download on the Levo. Constantly fails between 4-26% during the update connection module phase. I tried deleting and reinstalling the app. No improvement. Any ideas? Edit: Spoke to Specialized Rider Care this morning. They're seeing a history of errors between the...

    Cadence range ?

    Thanks. I have a pretty good idea of how power and torque are related. What I was trying to express (but perhaps the message was getting lost in the details) is that Bosch rewards as much cadence as possible in some modes but not in others. You kind of need to get to know each mode on its own...

    Full Fat or New Gen Lites

    Depends on a bunch of things. Reliability/defect issues aside, the Levo Gen 3 has a lot going for it. I just rode mine all over Mammoth Mountain on many of the same trails I've ridden regular enduro bikes for years and it was fine. That said, the only place I felt compelled to use full turbo...

    Unanswered Bosch extra battery holder removal- how ?

    Apparently it's required for compliance with Swiss traffic laws. In December 2021, the Federal Council decided to introduce new guidelines for e-bikes in road traffic. In accordance with the ordinance of the Federal Roads Office (FEDRO), all e-bikes must be equipped with a daytime light from 1...

    Unanswered Bosch extra battery holder removal- how ?

    You don't need to remove the mount at all if you can locate the bottle holder part. These links pertain to the Orbea Wild, but I assume they're just Bosch parts. https://www.emtbforums.com/community/threads/orbea-wild-fs-2020-battery-options.9306/post-162253...

    The Current State of eMTB Trail Access in the USA

    It looks like ADA does not apply to federal agencies, so I wouldn't count on OPMD providing much relief in USFS / BLM lands.

    The Current State of eMTB Trail Access in the USA

    Your best bet is to do some research such as local forums / bike shops, etc. You can do fine in a lot of places in So Cal by keeping a low profile and respecting other trail users, but other places are openly hostile, so it's best to know which is which beforehand. Unfortunately, the patchwork...

    Should you charge your battery 100%?

    Yep, an outlet timer is a good/cheap investment to manage your charging.

    Levo Gen 3 Specialized Gen 3 2022 Levo Megathread!

    I had a weird problem today on my Levo. I use a Garmin 830 paired to the Levo ANT+ sensors. Today the speed reported by the Garmin was pretty consistent nonsense, reporting 15.5 to 16.0 mph regardless of my actual speed (I was climbing at ~4-8mph). This never happened before. I tried rebooting...

    Can anyone recommend some pedals

    As far as flat pedals go, I don't see the need for anything fancier than Oneup composite pedals. There are thinner and lighter pedals out there, but viewed as a whole including value, grip, durability, and spare parts availability, they're top notch.

    Kenevo SL Official 2022 Kenevo SL (KSL) Megathread!

    You're right - Looks like the stack height more than makes up for the shorter max insertion depth. Nevermind!

    Kenevo SL Official 2022 Kenevo SL (KSL) Megathread!

    Pricey, but it looks like you could shave off maybe 20mm off the maximum insertion length by going with a 170 Reverb AXS.

    Bosch gen 4 chainring e13

    I made the change probably around last August give or take, so it's been awhile. I haven't been to a dealer since then so if it's a dealer controlled parameter I definitely didn't change anything.

    Bosch gen 4 chainring e13

    Yes, been using 32T with the FSA spider. It's been fine and makes cranking up steep pitches in Eco substantially easier.
