Well it works on my Levo (with the latest update installed).
The TCU gets the speed readings from the rear sensor, the set diameter will alter the speed reading, the smaller the rear diameter, the slower the bike will think you are riding, so if you set it to 2000mm but in reality have 2250mm, the TCU will "think" you are doing 25 but in reality its more.

Something worth knowing is that this warranty is not global, it gets a little muddy as the warranty would go through Specialized UK here for example, not Roval (I know same company in essence however, not the same here!) - But the guys at Spesh UK are awesome and always a great help! But the "S**T happens" warranty of Roval is not applicable in the UK!Rovals have a lifetime (crash!) warranty - you might be able to get that rim replaced for free:

I’m struggling with the standard headset
Is this Chris King 5 literally a direct replacement for the standard one? Just remove old and this new one fits, no other parts needed?

Buonasera a tutti ho da poco montato la ohlins ttx 22m 210x55 con molla da 457 lbs fornitami da Andreani in base alla bici e al peso del ciclista...
Ho fatto un giro veloce giusto per avere un primo feeling, sicuramente una cosa che ho notato subito è che il posteriore non scalcia più come di solito faceva l x2... ma non sono sicuro se la durezza della molla è quella giusta cioè mi aspettavo da un ammortizzatore a molla più effetto cuscino invece l'ho trovato piuttosto rigido in generale, ma in fase di atterraggio da un drop l'ho sentito stabile senza rimbalzare troppo.
Sono 65kg mi sono vestito con lo zaino ed ecc...
Tra l'altro ora ho visto che c'è la versione M2 del ttx per una piccola differenza di prezzo, solo per principio, quasi quasi lo rifarei, la differenza di circa 190€...
Cosa ne pensi?
Good evening everyone I have recently mounted the ohlins ttx 22m 210x55 with 457 lbs spring supplied to me by Andreani based on the bike and the weight of the cyclist...
I did a fast lap just to get a first feeling, surely one thing I noticed right away is that the rear no longer kicks like the x2 usually did... but I'm not sure if the spring hardness is the right one, i.e. I expected from a spring shock plus cushion effect however I found it quite stiff overall but when landing from a drop I felt it stable without bouncing too much.
I'm 65kg I dressed with backpack and etc...
By the way, now I've seen that there is the M2 version of the ttx for a small price difference, just on principle, I'd almost do it again, the difference of about €190...
What do you think?

Yes, the Dropset 5 fits in directly to the specialized angle headset cup.

I clearly appreciate your posting and I guess you upgraded your rear suspension with an Ohlins shock, but to keep it simple for everybody, please post in English as this is an English speaking forum.

Nope, after the complete update the wheel circumference is still at 2000mm and the bike still drives +/- 28.5/29 km/h

Hello,
according to Linkage Design website,
1/ the average leverage ratio for the Levo Gen3 is about 2.87 at 30% SAG. Your weight 65kg = 143.3 lbs. So the right spring rate for your weight at 30% SAG should be 2.87 x 143.3 = 411.27 lbs.
2/ But if the desired SAG is 25%, the average leverage ratio is about 2.92, so 2.92 x 143.3 = 418,436 lbs spring rate.
3/ At 30% SAG and 457 lbs spring rate, you should weight 457/2.87 = 159.233 lbs = 72 kg ready to ride.
Conclusion : your spring rate is too stiff. You should try 400-425 lbs

yes in fact today at home I tried to measure and it drops by 1 cm it should be a sag of 18% as it is now ...

Speed sensor, the pick up is on the inside of the swing arm near the brake caliper.
I figured it has to be a speed sensor.
TRP 223mm 2.3mm thick rotors installed with Code RS calipers and levers installed front and rear. Just bedded in but not field tested yet. With Uberbike E-Matrix Finned pads as well. (Still need proper rear caliper spacer but the washers worked to confirm fit)

Anyone interested in a black Cascade long link kit send me a message. It has only been fitted then removed as I'm selling the Levo.
Woah! What are you replacing it with?

I explained it to you already, it's simple math.

It looks like your brakes need aligning. If you use some washers you will use all of the pad on the rotor.

Has anyone noticed less range on newer levos than gen 2? On my 21 I could pull 60 miles and 4,500 of climb. I seem to only hit about 45 miles on the new ‘22 one. Perhaps it’s the power curve but I ride mostly in eco st 20%. Both are 700wh alloy
Yes, I think mine also has less range than gen2.
