    Levo Gen 2 2021 Turbo Levo Owners Thread

    Interesting idea to flip the shock. (y) I might try that when I rotate the flip chip after moving from 150 to 160 mm Debonair.

    Levo Gen 2 What the actual...?

    My first thought was a test mule/prototype that evaded the crusher. But those would likely not have any branding although I suppose someone could have added the stickers later.

    The Official BLEvo Thread

    I just noticed that my last three rides show the graph as empty and if I attempt to open the ride map I get an error that says "No data found in the CSV file". I tried sharing the csv to my email and sure enough the attached file is only 1K in size and only has the header row. I've looked...

    Levo Gen 2 Invisiframe fitting

    I left all mine on. This left a very fine line around the edges of the factory film but I was able to minimize that by slightly heating the area and running a credit card along those places to force the new film onto the frame closer to the edge of the factory film. I figured doubling up the...

    Pic of the Day

    Not particularly motivated to get a ride in today. :oops: ❄ Blowing snow with winds 30-60mph.

    How do you carry your phone?

    My iPhone fits perfect in the pocket on the side of my Dirt Roamer shorts while the BV6000 running BLevo is on a handlebar mount.

    Levo Gen 2 Any point to buying a new bike at full retail in Colorado?

    If you do wait, make sure to buy early in the spring before everything is gone. I bought my 2020 Levo Comp at a time I though was crazy early since we still had lots of snow where I live, but very glad I did. But if you are in one of the lower/warmer parts of the state it's possible to ride...

    Vittoria Airlines — no pump/tubes, really?

    Your riding experience while riding flat may also relate to which size airliner you are using with a given tire. I was torn between two different sizes when I ordered one for my rear tire and ended up randomly choosing the larger size which almost completely fills the inner volume of the tire...

    Levo Gen 2 Levo Comp Invisiframe

    I did my 2020 comp myself using a Chameleon Skin kit and it ended up quite a bit better than that. Note that I did intentionally elect to put the PPF on top of the factory applied film and stickers which made the Specialized logo on the downtube less visible (fine with that) and resulted in...

    The Official BLEvo Thread

    I looked through the posts here and also in the manual but haven't found what the color of the "motor power" graph indicates (the one above the cadence gauge in the pic below). It doesn't seem to be related to the numerical value. Any pointers to what it means or where I could find that...

    Levo Gen 2 2020 motor with 4 year warranty vs 2021

    And if any of the components really do bother you, you could apply the savings and swap them out and still end up with double the warranty.

    Levo Gen 2 Best brakes? -from stock SRAM guide

    Have you already tried different pads and a larger rotor? I also thought I needed, or at least wanted, new brakes until I put on a larger floating rotor and different compound pads. I no longer feel a need or desire to swap them out. They completely changed the experience for a lot less money.

    Levo Gen 2 2020 motor with 4 year warranty vs 2021

    Unless there is something about the 2021 components that your wife just has to have, I would jump at the 2020. I'm extremely happy with my 2020 Comp and would much rather have the 4yr warranty than the different (but IMO basically comparable) components. BTW the motors/batteries are the same...

    Levo Gen 2 Levo limiter and power-off: What is the pedal resistance like?

    I agree here. If you want to be able to pedal with no assistance you really should be looking at the SL. Sure it has less power, but it's not any hit to pedal with no assist other than the weight of the bike. I personally wouldn't consider riding my regular Levo (a 2020 Comp) that way. Sure...

    Levo Gen 2 220mm floating disc questions

    I've found that after adjusting the calipers if there is still rubbing in one or two parts of the rotation simply applying some pressure in the location where the contact happens resolves the problem. I can always get it to spin without any contact, even with new thick pads. It's sometimes hard...

    Mission Control REQUEST FOR “OVER THE AIR” FW UPDATE BETA TESTERS (Levo/Kenevo gen 2)

    Sorry for the confusion. I don't think there will be any relationship with Windows for the OTA updates. I was referring to the laptop based software that is often used to update firmware for all sorts of devices (phones, IOT devices, etc.)

    Levo Gen 2 2021 Turbo Levo FSR TCU protection

    I would also like to hear if there was a change made for the 2021 TCU. On recommendations elsewhere in this forum I removed the TCU of my 2020 and wrapped a strip of electrical tape around the part that fits inside the frame. Although I'm always very careful when washing, it seems like a...

    SRAM 220mm Rotor

    I've been running Disco Brakes kevlar formula with the 220 MDR on the front all summer on my Guide RE's. I had originally wanted to try the Uber pads but couldn't find a US distributor. However, for my particular trails, weight, and riding style (dry, XC rather than downhill but with lots of...

    Mission Control REQUEST FOR “OVER THE AIR” FW UPDATE BETA TESTERS (Levo/Kenevo gen 2)

    While that would certainly be a powerful option, if it were offered I would also want the ability to do that with a Mac. It's annoying to have to dust off some old Windows machine just to run a piece of software. Many companies do it but IMO "Windows-only" is just as unnecessary and outdated...

    Levo Gen 2 Charger 2.1 upgrade on a Lyrik Select

    In my case the rebound and low speed compression adjustments did nothing. It was always like the rebound was fully open and compression was fully closed no matter what the settings were. The LBS removed the charger and said it didn’t work normally on the bench.
