Specialized crippled my Turbo Levo Expert when they got rid of Mission Control and came out with this one. The "Heart Rate" selection in Smart control was removed! No more heart rate zone training on the E-Bike, I guess it's back to the indoor trainer. Thanks Specialized!

@nx01craig 4 ай бұрын

It looks like the new App is missing one thing I really liked that Mission Control had. The ability to save/store multiple Tune settings. This was nice because you could have instant access to different presets for different trail systems or types of riding.

@patrickstutz8347 2 ай бұрын

Great video, thanks. So they dropped the function where you set a target heart rate for your ride and the motor support would adjust automatically? That’s a pity, that was a great feature

@billderas3420 6 ай бұрын

Sam. Thank you for your excellent review of the new Specialized app. I have been using the new Specialized app instead of Mission Control for over three months on my 2023 Levo SL Gen 2 at this time. To extend the distances and climbing of my rides on this mid-powered e-bike, I typically use base settings of Eco 30/30, Trail 40/60 and Turbo 60/80 for my riding at the local bike park and in the Sierra Nevada Mountains of the western US. However, when I want a 100/100 power setting, I use the MicroTune function which is easily accessible while riding via the Handlebar Remote buttons. Going to MicroTune only involves a long press on the (+) button and adjusting the tuning via the (+) and (-) buttons. Also wish that Specialized would have included the crash reporting features of their Ride app within the new Specialized app to eliminate the redundancy between these two apps.

@SamsBikes 6 ай бұрын

Thanks for the kind words on the video this means a lot! That a good call on the Micro Tune to get the full 💯. I’ll let them know about crash report as it’s a good point

This was a great walk through Sam. Very useful. I have saved it for future reference. I only use about 5% of its functionality if I am totally honest. But nice to know it’s there if I ever want to get geeky about stuff. As a couple of others have noted, the loss of the jump stats feature is strange. Would be good to know if it is going to be available again?? I have certainly used the 80% battery charge limit as a precautionary thing. I rarely ever use more than 60-70% of the battery, so anything that helps battery health seems like a good thing. The auto lock feature is also a good addition, though it won’t stop the steal and strip-for-parts b@st@rds. But…. What is needed is a much better/louder alarm built into the bike. The current alarm is more like an annoying hearing aid squealing on the other side of the road. It’s not going to deter anyone imho. It needs a sound/alarm that makes people soil themselves. Cheers. Andrew

Been using this ' new app' for quite a few months now and myself and my mates agree the old app is waaaay better, but why you ask??? Well the new app seems to be quite problematic to pair with the bike, it isn't recording my rides properly, what happened to jump count? Long story short we all reverted back to the old app until they delete it I guess. Thanks for the explanation of the features Sam, great work.

Really excellent explanation Sam. I’ll be sharing with mates. Interesting that you mentioned auto lock if the phone is away from the bike. And a way to keep Verdone that if the phone battery fails. (This app does seem to drain phone battery). Where would we find info about that please. And doesn’t it kinda negate theft protection. Like others I’d like to save multiple custom setups for different situations - fit now I’m doing that by taking screenshots. Rider care told me that night come eventually. It was pretty useful in the red app I found. Thanks cobber.

Great video - when I connect my Tero to it the System Lock says 'update your bike to use the System Lock'. Is this a retailer software upgrade, a user upgrade or a way of saying the bike does not support System Lock. Mission Control has a lock which worked fine so should I just stick with Mission Control? Also I'm not seeing the dials under the graph..... is this a bike limitation?

@tracelt12 5 ай бұрын

Great walkthrough of the app and tuning features. The app really was one of the selling points to me. One major disappointment that I have with the new version is that there doesn't seem to be a way to export heart rate data to Strava. You have to pair via the hardware on the bike, but you cannot export the HR data from the app. It doesn't even seem like the app acknowledges the HR information at all.

I cannot find the heart rate connect option on the app either, seems a bit strange to have all this data but no option for heart rate!

After recent update, System lock is greyed out. "update your bike to use the System Lock" with a non-functional refresh button appears. Not a great experience. Could you imagine being 20 miles into a ride and stopped for a break only to have a phone app update disabling the ability to unlock?

I like saving different setups on the old app so that I can choose my settings based on the type of ride and who I am riding with. Like when I ride with my wife who is slow, I just load my program for low levels of support so we are more evenly matched. Do I only get the three different tuning programs now "Universal, battery and racing" ? ALso How do you save your changes?

@SamsBikes 3 ай бұрын

Good question let me ask!

@user-ke9yk5qp3u 6 ай бұрын

I'm sticking with the older app on my GEN 2 turbo levo. That's because I have switched over to the Blevo app which allows me all the ability to fine-tune the power levels and acceleration response, etc. but most importantly it also works in conjunction with Levociraptor which has delimited my bike so the motor stays engaged up to 33 miles an hour as opposed to hitting that awful wall at 20 mph. I'm 58 years old and I ran into some younger dudes that were semiprofessional and they were also riding turbo levo's. I said hi to them and have a nice day and then I took off. They immediately engaged in chasing me but I smoked them because they hit that 20 mph wall and I was cruising along through the dirt at roughly 27 mph. I thought I had completely left them in the dust but those little shits would not let it go and about a half an hour later I was going up this super long hill which is probably 1500 to 2000 feet in elevation gain over about 5 miles. I looked back and thought to myself, oh shit they're gonna catch me now! I gave it everything I had but they caught me at the top of the hill! I was totally laughing and one of the young dudes came up to me and he yelled at me: "dude! You delimited that bike! There is just no way!" I laughed with an evil cackle and admitted the truth. I gave those young kids a run for their money though and it was super fun and friendly and we all had a good laugh. 😂😂😂

I like the way Bosch does assistance with their smart modes like Tour+ and EMTB. Tour+ automatically switches between eco (60% assistance) and Tour (160% assistance) based on how you are pedalling. It’s seamless and really helps to save battery. EMTB is the same but switches between Tour (160%) and Turbo (340%). Theoretically Tour+ can also go all the way up to turbo assistance but I’m not sure when it does it. It’s so smooth that it’s not easy to tell when it switches modes unless you really pay attention. I think it might go into turbo assistance when you are going up a steep hill and pushing hard but your cadence is dropping so the bike goes full power to help you maintain your speed but I’m not 100% sure about that, it’s just what I have felt.

@streddaz 6 ай бұрын

Shuttle mode gives you 100% power and kick in will full power immediately. As Sam said, if you want to ease off that initial kick of power in the case of not wanting to spin the rear wheel or wheelie on a steep climb start, you can dial back the responsiveness to make the motor transition smoother.

I downloaded the new app, and just thought it would update the old one so I continued to use it. It took me a few rides before I realized it's a completely new app, and the old one still works. I've only had 2 rides on the new app, but the one thing that kills it for me is that there is no map while riding. The old app I could pull up a trail map while I was riding and it would show me where I was on the trials. I ride a lot of places that are new to me, so i rely on this feature to get around. I know there are things like strava or map my ride that do it, but I don't want a separate app. I don't know why they axed this feature. Anyway, I have about 500 miles on my Turbo Levo Expert and I haven't adjusted the tune yet. I never ride in eco mode, so I want to learn what these settings are, so I can tune it and adjust eco to something i'll use more. This is a great video to start.

If so, how does shuttle differ from power and ease? one other thing, why wouldn't they have that joystick control where you can set the distance or the duration of the ride in the tune settings page? that directly affects the tune of the bike.

Yeah, I'm still not quite getting the power settings. How does the rider input torque play into things. You can set the power to 100% but you are not going to get 90 nm of torque from the motor if you are only putting in 10 watts right? I get that this is a complicated function but it's like they want to hide the complexity from us and end up making it "fuzzy" to actually understand.

Great app but in my experience the ride tracker is a bit...idiosyncratic.

Yesterday I rode for two-and-a-half hours and 21 miles in Trail (40/40) on my Turbo Levo Comp with 1000m of climbing and only recorded 639 calories! I get more from a decent dog walk 🤣

I’ve tried to link an old battery to the new app unsuccessfully but a new second battery linked to it. It has been escalated a couple of times but I still can’t use both batteries and the new app I had to use the old app for both batteries Hopefully they get it fixed, I did like the new app

Hi mate, thanks for the comment. I think what you need to do is go to your Specialized dealer and get your battery updated to the new firmware give that ago and let me know

Is there a way to not have the map displayed and just the riding stats on the screen, like you could with the Mission Control App? I would rather have larger display for the stats and not the map all the time. Thanks

Record your current settings before downloading app because it will erase your old settings. And then you going to have to try to set up again which is a pain in the ass

If you have mission control already. You have to uninstall the bluetooth device from the BL list before using this app. It took me months to figure out why my bike wouldn't sync. So just be aware. You have to clean out your bluetooth connections before setting up with this new app if you already set up on Mission Control.

Same as McCrash. Both Apps are working for me. The new one installed with no hassles. And I can connect either. The old one has the jump stats which I sometimes prefer to use, though tbh I am not convinced how accurate those stats are.

@@SamsBikes also I have the 2021 Levo. So I think it has to do with the 2021 units. No one has had any issues otherwise from my own research. Specialized support helped me out big time. I had to unscrew the head unit and reenter the PIN number on the side of it. To properly reregister the bluetooth. It took me months to get this worked out. Just a friendly heads up for any others out there that experience the trouble. I have an iPhone 13 Pro Max.
