I hear so many people saying that there is no such thing as motor drag, apparently it's all due to weight and tyres. My experience doesn't align to that view, I bought a Gen 3 Levo at the end of last year and loved most things about it. The one thing I couldn't get on with was the brick wall I...

I don't believe there are any aftermarket cranks available to fit 1.2 motor, looks like 5DEV are working on some. Specialized list 165, 170 and 175 as available but no idea where / if you can actually buy them. Part numbers are: Crank Arm Alloy Arms: S211600036 - 165mm S211600037 - 170mm...

Shorter offset or a slacker head angle results in more trail (slower steering); longer offset or a steeper head angle reduces trail, quickening the steering response. I would start by using the adjustable headset cup set to +1 to quicken the steering response...

You might prefer a 51mm fork offset...

I'm not sure about the statement that all resistance comes from weight and different tires. In my experience, comparing three different bikes, a regular MTB at 12kg, a SL EMTB at 18kg and a FF EMTB at 22KG. I can ride my SL EMTB easily beyond the limiter, I even did a 20 mile ride over the...

I'm relatively new to ebikes but have been ridding mtb's for a long time. I bought a Gen 3 Levo at the end of last year and loved most things about it. The one thing I couldn't get on with was the brick wall I hit when riding above the limiter on more mellow terrain. I ended up swapping to a Gen...

To answer points 3 and 7. #7 - As far as I'm aware, the Transmission equipped Levo's use the existing spider giving a 52mm chainline. SRAM have stated that Transmission is fully compatible with a 52mm chainline. #3 - Use your existing cranks in conjunction with the DM chainring and you won't...

Others have reported the same, I suspect it will come down to frame tolerances. The bike industry is not exactly known for its great quality control!

The DM chainring gives you a 57mm chainline due to the offset motor. The Transmission cranks are also not optimised for the Levo as the cranks required a custom offset (again due to the offset motor). If you choose to use the SRAM cranks you will end up with a wider Q-Factor. I have used both...

That looks like a mistake on the 'S-Works Turbo Levo - SRAM XX T-Type' spec and doesn't reflect what you see in the images of the bike. The SL 1.2 spider fits the Gen 2 Levo SL which has a totally different interface on the spindle. I would be surprised if Specialized produce a new spider with...

The DM chainring gives a chainline of 57mm on the Levo due to the offset motor. Yes, the chainring will sit 5mm further away from the frame.

I remember what is was now! There is a recess on the back of the chainring whereas on the steel chainring it was flat on both sides. This is why there was insufficient thread engagement on the bolts. It also resulted in the mounting bolts not being flush and running the risk of them fouling the...

104BCD is 104BCD so no issues with the bolts fitting. It was something to do with not having much thread engagement with the the steel ring due to a slightly different design. It could be an issue that was specific to that chainring. Unless someone else is running the Oneup chainring and can...

Sorry deleted my previous post as I checked some old photos of the chainring and it was flat! I now can't remember why it didn't fit correctly as both the chainrings were flat! 🤔 If I recall correctly, they both physically fitted it's just there wasn't much thread engagement on the steel ring...

Not exactly the same scenario but I tried to fit a steel 104 BCD SRAM T-type chainring and found that it didn't fit on the spider correctly. The mount interface on the spider has a recess which resulted in a flat chainring not mounting correctly, the supplied alloy chainring doesn't have this issue.

Yes it's normal, the bike industry has great QC on frames! :rolleyes:

I believe the spider is unchanged on the MY24 bikes so the chainline will still be 52mm. SRAM have said that Transmission is fully compatible with a 52mm chainline.

Yes same noise on my bike, it doesn't really bother me TBH.
