Levo Gen 2 Source for motor connector o-rings?

[RebornRider]

I am in the middle of replacing the Brose motor mount hardware in an attempt to squash a squeak. One of the two o-rings on the battery cable is broken, and I think I lost the TCU cable o-ring (those things are *tiny*).

As annoyed as I am right now, it's still nice to see the motor so clean.

Have any of you found a source for the connector o-rings?

I'll answer my own question. "No." At least not directly from Specialized. I finally got a response from them, which was that the o-rings are only sold to authorized retailers, not end users like you and me.

the O Ring Store. Measure and order

I can measure the ones I have but not the one I lost.

My wife suggested rubber bands used with dental braces (at least in the US, not sure about UK) or the hair bands for making pony tails for dolls. I don't think she truly grasps how tiny these things are.

oringsandmore.com has a large selection and good service. The "Small Parts" store at Amazon has quality o-rings, I wouldn't trust the quality from their other suppliers.

Just buy a box of assorted o rings from hardware shop, none of this stuff is made 'especially' for Specialized!

Not trying to be insulting, but have you guys looked at these o-rings? They are much tinier than anything I've ever seen at a hardware store.

No doubt they are off-the-shelf o-rings, but it would be nice to have the dimensions (I lost one as mentioned above). The thinnest o-ring listed by McMaster-Carr (which carries everything!) is 1.0 mm, and I think that is too thick for the speed sensor connector.

0.66 mm? 0.68 mm?

I don't know. The original part was sucked into the black hole that is my garage floor.

Try Decathlon. They sell Brose motor blanking connector kits for ebikes they sell. They are probably an expensive way to buy o rings but at least you can buy them.
