The Official BLEvo Thread

Any reason why speed always reverts back to 15mph since last ios update? I try to change the speed to 20 mph on my Levo or 28 on my Creo and when I look back at the setting it always changes to 15. This only started after the recent ios update. Not todays.

I suggest to you to modify the "assistance increase" value, from +2 to Auto.. I don't know if I understand well you question..

Sorry, I don't think I explained myself very well, when using expert smart power there are two places where a wattage parameter can be set, one for each mode and one globally (training biker power). If I set the power to 152W in eco mode for example, what affect does the global parameter have?

Also, I have tried the auto modes and I don't like them, even eco is too reactive, making twisty trailriding unpleasant.

I have some suggestions for future releases, should I post them here?

Still no Landscape mode for IOS?

not yet.. I started to develop it, but in iOS is always difficult to implement simple thing like in Android.. sorry for that..

I don't think is a problem of the latest version of BLEvo.. Creo cannot be unlocked and which Levo model you have? Maybe also the Levo cannot be unlocked..

Yes, post them here..
Nothing happens to global training biker power if you change the value in eco mode..

Creo in USA is set at 28mph. It used to work. Now the Blevo app resets the speed down to 15.
I have a 2018 Levo Expert which should be 20mph in US also resets down.

In US the speed limit indicated by BLEvo is not correct...sorry but I'm not able to detect if the bike is in US or not..

Yes, bike is in US. So the 15mph displayed on app has no effect on actual speed limit?

Hello,
Is there a way to add my garmin vivo smart 4 as hr monitor to blevo?
Thanks in advance

 

[boneht]

Few suggestions, appreciate some of them maybe not possible due to motor limitations but here goes anyway. Great app, highly recommend!

1. I'd like it if the mode setting didn't interact with each other, eg I'd like eco range to be 40-80%, trail to be 10-100. This is because I don't change between eco and trail other than when I change terrain. I'd like eco to be a road gear and trail my off-road gear.

2. Further to above it would be great to be able to set an assistance limit to eco so that it emulates the legal restriction (my bike is derestricted)

3. It would be great if some of the global parameters could be made mode specific, e.g the assistance increase and dynamic leg power settings.

4. I am prone to pedalling too fast, when I have the phone visible I can see but mostly I ride with it in my pocket. It would be handy of I could be warned with a beep or something if I exceed a specified cadence
.
5. The display. I'd love the option to be able to see the smart widgets for rider power etc and the Map on the screen together. There is enough room on my display but the config options don't support it.

Hi, I've googled for over an hour now, but I don't find an answer: I use a 2019 Levo in combination with a Wahoo Roam to navigate and Blevo to configure everything. I want to use Smart Power. Can I use Smart Power without having to start a tour in Blevo? I don't want to do Blevo anything else then adjusting the power input to save battery on my phone.

Hey @PaoloBLEvo . Did you ever check on why the app doesn't recognize my 504Wh battery and identifies as 450Wh? I suspect it has something to do with the blank Serial Number field? Thanks for looking into this. Let me know if there is any info that I can give you. I'm using Android 10 on a Pixel 3a.

Good afternoon all
Bit of a strange one I planned a 20 mile route on komoot yesterday and set my blevo to eco all happy days and tracked it perfectly.
Thought I would do the same ride in reverse today the only thing different I tried the race pre set,I have just finished and blevo thinks I've only done 9 miles?? Although same route/elevation and time.
Any ideas guys?
Cheers

Did you end the ride and start a new one?

 

[Girdermonkey]

Do you mean halfway through the ride? I didn't,and I started a new ride before I left home

Have you checked the map and the log, perhaps you lost GPS or the bike disconnected for part of the ride?

Yea I have checked the map/log and all looks good,maybe your right I could have lost gps temporarily although it has happend in the past and you get a straight line across the map to where you get gps again...strange one

I did a ride the other day where it lost GPS at the start and only recorded half the route. It did however record the correct distance during the ride.

Hi #PaoloBLEvo,

I bought a Turbo Levo 3 days ago in a Specialized dealer in Portugal, and he told me if i use your APP (wich i do...?) i would lose my factory warranty. I explained him your answer concerning the CM less than 20 and the all the rest that you explained, but he strongly affirms that if i use it i will lose the warranty.
So i am starting to use the Mission Control App, but i would like very much that your app would be approved by them... any thoughts about it?
Regards

Tiago

I can't imagine that... I'm getting a new motor this week under warranty and I've used BLevo every ride for 700 miles

It looks as though it may be recording half the distance. Is your bike derestricted?

Specialized confirms that you can use BLEvo without loosing the factory warranty if you don't use the speed unlock feature

Could you share your Bike Setup screen shot and if you have any speed unlock system installed?

 

[Girdermonkey]

Yes it is through blevo

I´ll pass it to my dealer because he is very sceptical about it.
Many thanks

Hi @PaoloBLEvo
I've been doing some rides on my Levo with SmartPower&HR and enjoying seeing how economical it can be with the battery. However, I have a question about average consumption per mile.

On today's ride I did 24.86 miles consuming 110Wh of battery, 110/24.86 = 4.42 Wh/mile

The screenshot below, which I get to see by choosing 'more details', shows 6.93 Wh/mile.

The screenshot below that, which is the overview one for the ride, shows 4.31 Wh/mile which is much closer to my calculation.

Can you explain why the figures on these two screenshots are different.
Many thanks

I've noticed a number of what seem to be inconsistencies in values displayed. In your case, if you do the conversion you'll find that 6.93 is 1.61 x 4.31, where 1.61 is the number of kilometers in a mile. IOW, there's a mistake in the app where the miles to km conversion is not being done. I'm not sure this is happening in other places.
