Have you rattle guys checked the tcu cables up top? They can sometimes rattle.

Bugger, maybe they do have some Shimano tech then?yip, strapped up and wrapped in foam tape. the rattle is more mechanical sound than cables.
No rattles on mineI thought the same, so removed the battery and rode over some roots, same rattle. It’s not the battery, also the dealer put foam spray in the frame to check it was not cable rattle, still rattles. Only when riding and going over roots/trail chatter.
So guess our Levo’s now sound like shimano motors are in as they have the same rattle
The Levo is legitI'm really curious to know how it goes with the 170 slack front and high rear or 170 neutral front and low rear ... I'll wait to read your feelings
Just picked up my S3 S-Works Turbo Levo yesterday. Nice bike all around and a thrill to be on an eBike for the first time.
Haven’t put it through it’s paces but I noticed that upshifting is rough most of the time. I assume it’s a programmed momentum feature (acceleration setting?) that continues to provide power when I stop peddling.
I normally stop peddling for a brief moment on regular bikes when I up- or down-shift to negate such issues but wonder if it is expected for eBikes. I’m going to try messing with the software settings the next time I am able to ride the bike but I wanted to get input in the meantime.
P/s: Apparently Specialized forgot to include the battery charging port cap/flap with my build so I am running around without a charging port cover. Not sure what to make of it but let it be an FYI to future buyers.
Best regards,

It was probably broken by your dealer when they built your bike. It's a bad design. My dealer has ten doors on order but until there's a redesign the replacement will brake too.Hey @Specialized Rider Care, where’s my battery recharge port cover? My bike didn’t come with it and my LBS called to place a replacement order over a week ago.
A bit of a poor show to deliver a bike incomplete esp. with a part that is supposed to protect the most delicate component of the bike.

I did, for me a lot better..Anyone who moves from carbon SL to Levo Gen3 please ?
I have a rattle too on my Levo Pro. Added the battery extender and took the battery out, still a rattle.I added the battery extender thingy on my S5 expert. Maybe it reduced the rattle a bit, not sure. Bottom line I love the bike, warts and all. Charging door's almost gone and a bit of a rattle when ripping down rough downhill, hopefully someone smarter than me will figure it out, but for now I don't give a shit.
Are you sure it's not from the motor? Pick the back end up and drop it, does that make the noise? My Levo's motors (x2) made a rattle which was the sprag clutch when unloaded. If your rattle goes away when pedaling this could be your rattle too.I have a rattle too on my Levo Pro. Added the battery extender and took the battery out, still a rattle.
I think it is the cable (guides) in the top tube. Since S-Works user do have the same problem it's probably not the cable from the dropper post.
Maybe I will try to put a Procore inner tube (Schwalbe 29 FV Procore Tube Dual 25/40-622 EK 52mm - 16,90 € - Muziker) into the top tube. After inflation the rattle should stop...
Other ideas or does someone already has a solution?
Hey @beutelfuchs,@Specialized Rider Care
I might have found a little specification bug of the TCU. Here is how it goes:
1. Switch on bike -> TCU is in "trail" mode
2. press 2x minus button -> TCU is in "off" mode (I did that today accidently)
3. hold plus key for 2s to enter micro tune mode
4. Press + hold walk assist button -> walk assist will NOT engange. I assume this is not intended, at least its unexpected as the engine still engagend normally while pedaling 1s before
to fix it:
5. hold plus key for 2s to exit micro tune mode
6. press plus button at least once to go from "off" to "eco, trail or boost"
7. hold plus key for 2s to enter micro tune mode
8. Press + hold walk assist button -> walk assist will engange normally
I did, for me a lot better..
The SL is unbeatable in handling, but with some small modification now i feel Levo a lot better, very similar to SL sensation with a uge power under your bodyThanks !
Any (big) difference in handling, in particular while going downhill on tight trails ?
Cleaned up the cables
I like all my drivetrain and motor controls on the same side
also converted to Shigura brakes and W?W

thanksVery nice; I may do the same. What size shrink tube and length did you use by the way?
thanks
8ft roll cut down to length
i only had 5/16" and 7mm tubes which were actually too tight. so size up. took a while to get the TCU connector through the shrink wrap
Plenty of clearance with shimano xtr levers. I’m using the sram matchmaker mountsWhat is the clearance/fit like between the AXS paddle shifter and the Levo controller having them both on the same side btw?
took a while to get the TCU connector through the shrink wrap
Use a larger diameter shrink tube and the connector will fit right through. For a 5/16” diameter I used a large zip tie to push the connector throughI really like this solution and would like to try to do it, how did you get the TCU connector through? Do you have some advice? Thanks in advance
