mschwett replied to the thread Turbo Vado 2 4.0 or 5.0 or 6.0?.the older specialized chart does confirm very high efficiency at high rpm. it also suggests that the efficiency should be higher at...

mschwett replied to the thread Turbo Vado 2 4.0 or 5.0 or 6.0?.cool my guess is, however, that the system is not 84% efficient at 100rpm. more likely it’s just not outputting quite the full 315/320...

mschwett replied to the thread Turbo Vado 2 4.0 or 5.0 or 6.0?.an interesting note in a review of the new firmware for the full power levo, perhaps explaining why 0/100 on microtune is not really 0.

mschwett replied to the thread Turbo Vado 2 4.0 or 5.0 or 6.0?.i think the varied efficiency of the motor (let's call it 70-80%) and the inability to measure this property directly make it difficult...

mschwett replied to the thread Turbo Vado 2 4.0 or 5.0 or 6.0?.i think testing a fairly powerful bike like the SL2 with a range of E from 40 to 100 will likely bump up against the edge cases of speed...

mschwett replied to the thread Turbo Vado 2 4.0 or 5.0 or 6.0?.I’ll believe that when I see it documented on a long-ish steady state effort - preferably a shallow climb - at similar cadences across a...
