Not sure what you mean by head unit. I have a creo and I use a garmin edge 130 on the bike. That does show my HR data because I paired the monitor to it. I don’t see any HR data in the new S app, and no way to pair one. The old MC app did display it and auto paired with my HR monitor.

I’ve seen a few posters here say their heart rate monitor works with the new S app. Mine is paired to my Garmin and I see my HR there while on a ride, but the new S app doesn’t show or record it. I don’t see any option within the app to pair a monitor. It does work with the old MC, Ride, Blevo...

Just took my second ride using the new app. It seemed to work well but like you, it didn’t record heart rate. I don’t see any options to pair a HR monitor with the app either. My polar monitor works fine with the old MC and with BLevo. I’ll stick with using BLevo and my garmin 130.

I agree that Blevo is much better data collector than any of the Specialized apps. I found that if I set my tuning in Blevo and then later open Mission Control, those MC settings have been changed to whatever I set with Blevo. I only use my Garmin (edge 130 +) while riding, but I run Blevo on...

You’re welcome! And fyi- one charge cycle is counted when the battery accepts its entire charge capacity regardless of whether it happens in one or several charge sessions. So if you rode from full to empty, charging up to full again counts as one charge cycle, or charging a fraction of a full...

I just downloaded and recorded a ride with the new app. It does seem to combine the old MC with the Ride app, with improvements. Now the ‘analyze your ride’ tab lets you choose three parameters to view together, a big improvement over the Ride app’s implementation. Now I can scroll through a...

Not sure if that device would give the battery pack watt hr. capacity. It looks to me like a constant current load tester that would be helpful testing individual cells or power supplies. And I wouldn’t ever completely discharge any lithium ion battery cell or pack. When my Creo was new, at...

You can see the battery watt hour capacity with Mission Control. Turn the bike on, start MC and select ‘Ride’, like you’re going to use it to record a ride. Then select stats and hold down one of the data windows to bring up options to display. One is the battery watt hour amount. If you fully...

Interesting observation. Every review I’ve read of the various TQ equipped bikes say it’s a very natural feel. Could it be that the TQ rider power number stays high like you described but its motor power fell off like you would expect? I think I read the TQ screen has an option to watch both...

All great information! I’d be interested to see if your multiplication factor to adjust the TQ reported rider power to a more accurate one is the same under different conditions. Like, if you ride in stock eco mode, will it still over-report by the same amount? That seems like it would be easy...

Thanks for posting your data here, I’m interested in how the TQ system works and your experiment has answered some of my questions. So your adjusted rider input must come from your power pedals? It looks like Trek’s rider power is 50% or so high, at least in this case. I’ve read others post on...

Great review, thanks!

That’s a good tip about flexing the chainring to pull the chain free! In case you haven’t done this, at the bottom of the Blevo screen when you’re reviewing a ride is a ‘send csv file’ tab. If you email it to yourself you’ll see the motor temp (and tons of other data) in a second-by-second...

Is there a provision within the trek app to send yourself (or download) a csv file? Mission Control has that option and I can use a free csv file converter to see motor power and other data that the MC app itself doesn’t show.

Interesting analysis but you have a few facts wrong. First of all you seem to have compared a medium Creo with a Large Domane +. Specialized calls medium a 54, so comparing it with a 54 Domane + SLR shows the Creo to have 17 mm higher stack, 5 mm longer reach, 4mm shorter chainstay and 8mm...

So true about the cost to retrofit, if available. From what I’ve read on an EMtn Bike forum, it has been confirmed that the 1.2 motor does physically fit into the older Levo sl frame and the battery is the same. The splines are different so a new crankset would be needed. Then there’s the...

That’s promising! And did they say the 1.2 motor will be available to retrofit into current creos, or will be in the next generation coming soon? Fingers crossed for the former.

Who at Specialized told you the 1.2 motor will be available to be swapped into the Creo? Was it someone at a LBS, word from corporate, or ?. Just interested to see if this is a realistic expectation or someone’s assumption. Thanks!

I‘m 6’3” and rode a 61cm Roubaix for years until I got my XXL Creo, I see the XXL as very similar to the older Specialized 61, the XL as a 58, the L as a 56. I put a 90mm (same +- 7 deg as the stock) stem on both my Roubaix and the Creo to shorten the reach a little, and both fit well. With all...

I would like to hear your comprehensive review after you’ve had some time with the bike.
