Levo Gen 3 cranks doesn't spin freely. brose 2.2

[Jack_]

Hi. I have brand new Levo gen3 and I wonder if the motor is alright. When I kick cranks backwards they have so much resistance that they spin maybe 180 degr. What it looks like in your bikes? See the comparison to my old Levo in attachment.

I have a new S works and it's like that ,it's the thicker belt is a lot stiffer that's all.

Hi !

Has nothing to do with the belt.
New and greased needle- and spragbearings will dampen the rotation. Smooth braking is a good sign that there is fresh grease and not already washed out as in my Levo after 1 year.
In addition Speci is now placing an O Ring under the driveside crank is compressed an brakes the rotation.

Best regards,

Chris

extra grease and better sealing. Nothing to worry about.

Thanks guys, I feel better now. I was going to remove cranks and inspect this myself, or WD40-ing, but I leave it and just ride !
