These past few weeks have tested my Levo love to the max
We've been close to divorce
Their faults are well known and got me thinking why I bought one in the first place
Spesh have , justifiably ,had a bashing on here recently - by myself included
So whilst pondering the folly of my purchase I...
Thank you @Specialized Rider Care for getting involved , it is appreciated .
It's good to see our concerns are not falling on deaf ears .
I look forward to your comments on the final point .
For me personally id appreciate your suggestions on how we can lessen the chances of water ingress .
I...
Just got back from another smashing day out on the M4 .
Been to Berkshire cycles for a new motor.
Had the Holy Trinity of failures in the last month - Power lead , TCU and motor.
Chris and his team were outstanding as usual.
Collared Chris about my concerns and he very graciously spent about...
Brose definitely need their collars felt but Spesh are ultimately responsible
In the industry I work in our contracts are directly with the customer . Whatever supplier or manufacturer we use is irrelevant to our customers.
We are ultimately responsible . If our suppliers are underperforming or...
I was thinking along the same lines about some water repellant. I will ask the question in the workshop this week.
Don't mind occasionally doing some more in depth maintenance , not keen on doing it after every ride though
Totally agree
My dealer decision was based on the same logic as yours
Chris and his team have always given me excellent service and advice apart from suggestion to remove TCU ,crank and motor cover and blow dry with an airline every time it gets wet .
Which of course everyone can do thanks to...
Agree
It was a calculated decision based on their well deserved excellent reputation V more local dealers that , from experience , don't offer anywhere near that level of service
To be fair ive loved this bike
But I've been waiting for the inevitable failures.
This last month they've come in abundance and yes they will be fixed under warranty
But how long until the next one ?
I've lost confidence in the bike and Spesh
Also I have no idea which bike is a suitable...
Totally get your perspective point , much worse things going on in the world.
Just curious to know if Spesh had anything productive to say on the issues
I'll be taking my bike into the dealers for a new motor this week and I'm on the cusp of instigating a tricky conversation.
Just how tricky...
Shiney shiney bling dribble drool. ;-)
Mmmm thought so
Maybe the bikes you want don't exist yet Stu.
Clearly not - it's outrageous of me to only spend 7K for a mountain bike and expect it to actually work in the mountains
Obviously I need to buy the new 10K version that's bound to be the...
Mine failed 2 days ago after 1900km
after 2 other electrical issues in a month.
As I understand it motor is replaced with same type
I'll watch this thread with interest
Just wondering if the above was raised at the Spesh day and if any satisfactory answers were forthcoming ?
Or if shiney new bikes had the desired effect and managed to be enough of a distraction to sidestep the issues
Levo 19 - motor blew today after 1900km
Levo 18 - blew at 1200km a month after I'd sold it to my boss ? managed to get it warrantied sharpish . Was a bit embarrassed though ?
Levo 17 - sold it whilst still going strong on first motor at 2200km
