Levo Gen 3 Motor cut off and gear shifting
Hello! Recently I picked up my first "non-chineese-kit-converted" eBike: Turbo Levo gen3. Since first ride I've noticed that the motor does not cut off immediately after I stop pedaling: it continues to deliver power for about 0.5-1.5 sec. and then cuts off sharply (without "inertia"), i.e. I...- ThisUserNameHasBeenTaken

A new Shimano software update brings motor overrun settings for the EP801
Shimano just dropped the 4.3.0 update for the EP801 and EP600 motors. I usually don't do articles about software updates, unless it’s something very interesting. The Auto Shift ver. 2.2 might be big news, it remains to be seen. The carry over settings definitely seem interesting. Motor overrun... -

Reliability of Shimano vs. Bosch?
I'm sure we've all seen some comments of people stating that Shimano is unreliable motor without any potential service options, but is that really true? Does anyone really have some issues with it on a longer term , and is it true it cannot be serviced? I'm asking real owners not internet specs... -

Bosch Performance CX Race - Powerful and versatile
The Bosch Performance CX Race isn't a completely new motor any more. But this is our first encounter with this much-talked-about motor. The CX Race is based on the Bosch Performance CX Gen4 motor, which was launched in 2019. The CX Race too delivers 85 Nm of torque, but it is a couple of hundred...- Knut Nes

Shimano EP8 gen2 (EP801) first ride review
I had the chance to look at the new Shimano EP8 (EP801). It was a cold and icy day, which wasn't perfect, but it's not like I could decline the opportunity. I try to illustrate how silent it is in my video. Check it out or keep on reading below. Rattle and hum? The test bike is a 2022 model...- Knut Nes

Comparing noise from 8 emtb motors
We’ve taken a closer look, or rather listen, at 8 of the motors we’ve ridden lately. This is a comparison of full power emtb motors, yet one of the contenders is the small and mild TQ HPR50 motor. This is the most silent motor we’ve ever ridden, so we included it as a benchmark. Sure, it’s a tad...- Knut Nes

TQ HPR50 Review + Trek Central app
A few months ago, we tested the new Trek Fuel EX-e 9.9 AXS with the new TQ HPR50 motor. The test was done before the bike launch and the Trek Central app wasn't ready at the time. We noticed the motor couldn't possibly be set to 200% amplification of rider input. Not if we were to trust the...- Knut Nes

Levo Gen 2 RaceCo deserves lots of credit and praise….
I bought my Levo carbon expert 2nd hand from RaceCo in December and the motor developed an issue after 150 miles. It had covered 1000 miles total. Took it today and they swapped the motor out for a brand new august 2021 model motor there and then whilst I waited. 1.5 hours and I was driving...- SparkleHedgehog

Other Motor issues, what issues?
As an original owner of a 2018 Levo, like many others, I've been through my fair share of motors under warranty and never worried too much about it as I know Spesh are good to their word and don't quibble over issues. My last warrantied replacement was just over a year ago. Since then, according...- Stumpy

Is BB height and motor placement just as important to consider on emtb's?
This may sound weird and daft but humour me. I've begun a side project by using my Lyrik 180mm travel forks from my Kenevo on my 2017 Enduro Comp 29. Thankfully, I'm able to squeeze my 29x2.35 Magic Mary into the fork but as I suspected, the BB height has increased (along with slackened head...- Neeko DeVinchi

Irritating clicking noise (worse under pedal load) on 2020 S-Works Levo - finally solved
I upgraded my 2018 S-Works Levo for the 2020 model last August and things were going really well until recently when I started to experience a clicking sound.

Unused ports on 2.1 motor?
I found this on page 148 of the service workbook: Front/rear lights... interesting. And one called "E-Bike". Is this maybe for future functionality where you'll actually turn lights on and off via some switches in the cockpit? Anyone try probing these ports to see if there's any voltage present?- Cannikin
