2020 Brose better than 2019

[Frank_Denmark]

My 2018 Levo have worked perfectly and the motor is both smooth and silent
Anyways - I consider getting a new Levo, but the troubles with the 2019 Brose motors make me nervous.

Do You find the 2020 Brose more reliable than the 2019 - even if the motors are the same ?

I think this thread probably answers your questions... It seems highly unlikely any existing issues with the Brose motor will be addressed by either party before Spec move on to using their "own" (really Mahle) motors across the board at some future point, probably the next Levo release.

Any answers at Spesh day about motor and moisture issues ? - EMTB Forums

Specialized said for the 2021 Levo they will continue to use the Brose motor, Only the SL is going to the Mahle/Creo Motor

If we believe this is yet to be known but this was from the UK SL launch day thing.

The board of Newcastle United FC also said they had complete faith in their manager until they sacked him shortly after ??

Of course they will say that whilst they have Brose powered bikes on the shop floor - stating anything else would instantly devalue that stock. It’s very clear from that video that Spec do not have a relationship with Brose that allows them to materially influence the direction of the product, hence why they have struck up the partnership with Mahle. If that motor is reliable and successful in the SL - and it looks to me like they have designed in some headroom in terms of wattage - then I think it is a shoe in for the next Levo and probably Kenevo too.
