Overview

This document provides supplementary information for the assembly and use of Specialized Turbo/Turbo SL bicycles, particularly for "Ship to Home" deliveries. It is intended to be used in conjunction with the main Assembly Guide and User Manual provided with the bike.

General Information and Safety

The document emphasizes that the information provided is supplementary and should be read alongside the comprehensive Assembly Guide and User Manual. It highlights the importance of consulting these primary documents for detailed instructions and safety information.

Motor Support and Activation

The Specialized Turbo/Turbo SL bicycles feature an electric motor that provides assistance. The motor support activates as soon as the cranks are rotated and torque is detected, provided the system is powered on. This activation can occur in various scenarios, including active riding, when the bicycle is in a work stand, flipped upside down with cranks turning, or when walking alongside and pushing the bicycle.

Usage Feature: The motor provides assistance based on crank rotation and torque detection, enhancing the riding experience.

Safety Feature: A critical warning is issued regarding unintentional motor engagement. Users are advised to always turn off the battery when motor assist is not desired, especially when working on the bicycle or when there's a risk of accidental crank rotation. This prevents potential injury or damage from unexpected motor activation.

What's in the Small Parts Box

The document details the contents of the small parts box that accompanies the bicycle. This box contains essential tools and manuals necessary for assembly and initial setup.

Contents include:

  • User Manual: Provides detailed instructions for the bicycle's operation and maintenance.
  • Assembly Guide: Offers step-by-step instructions for assembling the bicycle.
  • Owner's Manual: Contains comprehensive information about the bicycle's components and warranty.
  • Component Manual: Specific manuals for individual components, if applicable.
  • Pedals (Optional): Depending on the model, pedals may be included.
  • Torque Wrench (1-10 Nm): A crucial tool for ensuring components are tightened to the correct specifications, preventing damage or failure.
  • 5mm Hex Key/Bit: A common tool for adjusting various parts of the bicycle.
  • 4mm Hex Key/Bit: Another common tool for specific adjustments.
  • Flat Wrench: Used for certain fasteners.
  • Specialized Turbo battery charger: Essential for recharging the bicycle's battery.

Maintenance Feature: The inclusion of specific tools like a torque wrench and hex keys indicates that some level of user assembly and maintenance is expected, with the proper tools provided to ensure correct procedures.

Assembly Instruction Video

To assist with the assembly process, Specialized provides an assembly instruction video accessible via a QR code.

Usage Feature: Users can scan the QR code with their smartphone camera to access a comprehensive assembly instruction video in their preferred language. This visual guide complements the written manuals, making the assembly process clearer and easier to follow.

Steps to access the video:

  1. Open the camera app on your phone.
  2. Focus the camera on the QR code.
  3. Gently tap the code to focus and activate the link.
  4. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the action and view the video.

Charging the Battery

The bicycle arrives with a partially charged battery. It is imperative to fully charge the battery before the first ride.

Usage Feature: The Specialized Turbo battery charger is provided to facilitate charging. Users must refer to the main User Manual for detailed safety information and instructions on how to properly charge the battery.

Safety Feature:

  • Important Warning: Do not move the bike or rotate the crank arms while the charger is connected. This can cause damage to the charger plug and/or charge port if the crank arm hits the connector.
  • Charging Interruption: If the rear wheel speed sensor magnet passes the speed sensor during charging, the battery will enter a safe state and stop charging. To prevent this, avoid rotating the rear wheel during charging. To resume charging after an interruption, ensure the speed sensor magnet is not near the sensor in the dropout, then disconnect and reconnect the charger connector.

Maintenance Feature: Proper charging procedures are crucial for battery longevity and safe operation. The document highlights specific actions to avoid during charging to prevent damage and ensure continuous charging.

Mission Control App

The Mission Control App is a key feature for Specialized Turbo E-Bike owners, allowing them to maximize their riding experience.

Usage Feature: The app provides advanced control and customization options for the E-Bike. Users are encouraged to download and connect to the Mission Control App from their device's app store. QR codes are provided for direct download and to learn more about the app's capabilities.

Connect to Mission Control

Connecting the bicycle to the Mission Control App involves a few simple steps, depending on whether the bike is equipped with a TCU (A) or a MasterMind TCU (B).

Usage Feature:

  1. Power On: Power up the bicycle by pressing the power button on the TCU (Turbo Control Unit).
  2. Connect and Register: Follow the instructions in the bicycle's User Manual to connect the bicycle to the Mission Control App. This process typically involves pairing the bike via Bluetooth. Once connected, complete the online rider registration within the app.

The app allows for monitoring ride data, customizing motor settings, performing diagnostics, and accessing other features that enhance the E-Bike experience.

Unlock Lifetime Warranty

Registering the Specialized bicycle is essential to unlock the Lifetime Warranty against structural defects in material or workmanship for all Specialized-branded frames and forks.

Usage Feature: The registration process can be completed either through the Mission Control App or on Specialized.com. Users will need the bicycle's serial number, which is typically found on a sticker on the underside of the top tube, downtube, or underneath the bottom bracket. Specialized serial numbers usually start with prefixes like "WSBC," "WUD," "STT," or "STE."

Steps to register via Mission Control App:

  1. Connect your bike to Mission Control.
  2. Once paired, tap the cog wheel icon to access the bike's settings.
  3. Tap 'Register Bike' and follow the in-app instructions.
