    Levo SL Gen 1 SL vs Levo motor noise levels

    Comp carbon, so all carbon frame. Chest mounted camera, but it has exaggerated the volume somewhat. Compare the motor noise to sounds of changing gear. I am going uphill here. Chain is well lubed. Make no mistake, this is dramatically louder than my 2018 Levo.

    Levo SL Gen 1 SL vs Levo motor noise levels

    Check out my noise here... https://www.dropbox.com/s/idr25g30r2v05tj/DJI_0160.MP4 Took it to my dealer, and we compared it to their SL demo - they were both the same.

    Levo SL Gen 1 Set up Levo to have same power as SL?

    I've just switched from a Levo to SL. I am 69 years old and not particularly fit, and live in an area with a lot of very stiff climbs. The only reason I have changed is so that I can lift the bike over fences, and in that regard it is a success. However I have also found that I can ride even the...

    Levo SL Gen 1 SL vs Levo motor noise levels

    I hope mine gets quieter. Did 14 hilly miles today totally in eco as a test, and the noise was terrible. I shall repeat the same route tomorrow in trail for a comparison. This is a brand new bike, and that will be the third ride, so early days.

    How can you disagree with me? You haven't heard my bike.

    Levo SL Gen 1 SL vs Levo motor noise levels

    OK, here's my take on it. The SL is my third Levo. I had the 2017 Comp Carbon and the 2018 Comp Carbon, so over 3 years of riding them. I wanted a lighter bike. I'm 69 years young and struggle to lift it over fences. The previous Levos were fantastic, and pretty quiet. This SL makes a terrible...

    Are you doing a version for the Levo SL?

    DIY Turbo Levo charger

    Just rang my BMW dealer. None available world wide, apparently. You are a lucky guy. I'm guessing this must be a DC-DC adapter, so no inverter involved. Specialized should sell these!!!

    I created a purely mechanical Turbo Levo speed limit increase

    Mine arrived today. I already had the magnet and rotor bolts, so fitting was completely straight forward and took only a few minutes. The system works beautifully. The dimensional tolerances are perfect. A snug fit onto the rotor and the axle. Brilliant!!! Well done jd_3d you are a star!

    Dalby Forest range test.

    I ride Dalby frequently, as I live nearby in Guisborough. When I meet other riders who ask me about my ebike, I tell them that when I used to ride Dalby Red on a regular bike, it took me about 4hrs 20mins and I was always utterly and completely knackered (I am 68 years old). My best time on my...

    Invisiframe is it tricky to do yourself?

    I did mine myself. Not too difficult, just a bit tedious. Just take your time and use lots of water diluted with Johnsons Baby Shampoo. I found that there is an ideal order of fitting each piece so that you don't have pieces overlapping each other. Also, it's best to not butt pieces directly...

    2019 Turbo Levo Owners Thread

    You and me both. See my post #400 on page 14, and subsequent related posts. The paint is awful. I've wrapped mine in Invisiframe for peace of mind.

    Tried it. It doesn't work with the latest motor firmware.

    2019 Turbo Levo Owners Thread

    I'd be amazed if the body of the frame around the motor got to 95°C ! What's the worst that could happen - the trim tape could come unstuck? I've just bought a complete roll of the stuff for £4!

    Yes - call him. 01287 610735. They are my local dealer, just a mile away, so I am lucky in that regard. When I popped in for mine, it was the fifth one he'd made that morning!
