Identifying the motor

[GuyP]

Hi, newbie question. How do I tell what motor I have in my bike?

I bought a used 2018 turbo levo and the previous owner said that the motor and battery had just been replaced under warranty. How do I tell whether I have a 1.2 or 1.3? Only config info I can see is for the Battery Monitor on BLEvo (pasted below).

Many thanks.

The series number is the only visual difference. The Drive T goes by C 911, while the Drive S is categorized as C 972. Find the serial number from Mission Control app

Just to clarify if that left you scratching your head, the Drive T is the 1.2 and the Drive S is the 1.3

Yes, thanks for that

Ok, so I have the 1.3 with firmware 5.0.4 (the latest I think).

So from that, it looks like it's had 14 charges since the battery was changed. The odd bit is the distance covered.

On the Blevo bike config page from those figures, it would look like the assistance has been upped from 25kph to 32kph or something similar. But at the same time the wheel circumference has been dropped from 2300 to 1500 ? If that's the case, you probably want to run mission control (might need to re-start your phone as you don't want blevo running at the same time). In bike setup, at the top select "defaults/reset" - can't remember exactly what it says .. Then re-start the bike.

If you want to adjust the assistance speed, just use the the slider bar in blevo, but leave the wheel circumference as default.

Looks like you have nicer weather than here today ! 24 degrees ambient (assuming you've not been out for a ride).

Yes, I saw that but I think it is that the previous owner set the wheel diameter to 800mm and did a couple of rides. I have used Mission control to set it to the default of 2300 but now read that I should be at 2255 (if I remember correctly).

I think 2255 is correct, anywhere round there will be near ! It won't affect anything with regard to how the bike rides, it just means any speed/distance figures you get from MC and Blevo will be wrong.

What is the significance of the TCU Version (1.7.0) and is it upgradeable?

Many thanks.

I did notice this.
It won’t last ?

FYI: When the motor is replaced the distance tracks resets to zero. So figures shown depend if the battery was replaced at that exact time too.

Yes, the battery was replaced at the same time. I have no idea why they were both replaced though. I don't think the bike was ridden that much.
