WARNING! The acceleration of an electric bicycle can be faster than anticipated and may feel
unusual at first. Before your first ride, Specialized recommends using the lowest power ECO
mode and becoming familiar with the operation of the electric bicycle in a safe environment away
from other bicycles, pedestrians and/or vehicles. Please note that the system always launches in
TURBO mode as a default.
WARNING! The motor support is activated as soon as you step onto the pedals and the bicycle
is in motion. Specialized recommends being seated on the bicycle before applying force to the
pedals. Do not put one foot on a pedal and throw a leg over the bicycle, as it could accelerate
unexpectedly. Failure to follow this warning may result in serious personal injury or even death.
WARNING! The brakes on Levo bicycles are more powerful than the motor. If you encounter
any problems while riding due to the acceleration and speed of the bicycle, use your brakes to
overcome the motor support and slow down the bicycle.
CAUTION: Specialized recommends changing gears regularly, as one would do with a non-motor
supported bicycle. Always reduce the pedal force before initiating a gear shift in order to reduce
wear on the drivetrain.
WARNING! Since the motor support allows for greater speeds and acceleration, Specialized
recommends paying particular attention to the terrain conditions when riding.
6. GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR LEVO
Pedal assist bicycles or EPACs (Electrically Power Assisted Cycles) are bicycles with an auxiliary motor that only
provides support when force is applied to the pedals. When you stop pedaling, the motor switches off. On pedal
assist bicycles where the motor support switches off automatically at a speed of 25 km/h (15 mph) a driver’s license
or insurance is typically not required. Depending on the country of sale, the motor support on your Levo bicycle will
switch off automatically at a speed of 25 km/h (15 mph) or 32 km/h (20 mph) (USA and Canada only).
Before using your Levo bicycle, please inform yourself of all applicable legal requirements and
regulations in your country or state. There may be restrictions on riding your Levo bicycles
on public roads, cycling paths, and/or trails. There may also be applicable age restrictions
or license or insurance requirements. Specialized does not, and will not, make any promise,
representation, or warranty regarding the use of your Levo bicycle. As laws and regulations
regarding electric bicycles vary by country and/or state and are constantly changing, please
make sure to obtain the latest information. You should also regularly see your Authorized
Specialized Retailer for updated information.
WARNING! The Levo bicycle is only approved for use by one person at a time. Do not use a child
carrier or trailer.
