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...

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.

You say you compared your creo and domane + slr on the highest setting. I wonder if you had the domane pedal response set to 100%, along with its support and max power settings. I read other owners say that with the pedal response maxed out the torque/power comes on early and then feels like it...

Yeah, that seems to be a typo/mistake. Other docs that have been taken down said 48 volts.

I’ve been following an e mountain bike forum for early news about the SL updates and multiple people posted today with leaked specs for the new Levo SL. Since the current Levo SL uses the same motor as the Vado SL and creo, it seems safe ti assume this next gen. will as well. The new motor is...

Good luck, the 80% charge limit worked fine for me for about 6 or 7 charges and then started going to 100% again. So far the last 4 charges have gone to 100 so I’m going back to my old method of just estimating the time and unplugging the charger before it reaches full charge.

Yes, I have a creo with the older tcu and the 80% charge option works on mine. I got the update a few weeks ago and can confirm that the charge stops at 80% now. There is an on-off option in M C so you’re free to use it or not.
