Hi, is the Gen3 turbo levo motor?
@8:14 how is it the manufacturers didnt put a seal in there in the first place - its as if its a deliberate act to design to make the motor fail prematurely
agreed and no idea why
You are the best guys. Very helpful information
What motor would be in my haibike from 2014 29sL xduro ive never ever worked on it only to put a new powercable on it as i updated the powerpack to a 500 but id like to have a complete bearn overhaul and maybe some up to date soft ware just to bring it up to standard ,its my commuter not seen much mountain biking at all any advice or information from yourside to get the motor to u would be appreciated 👍
Im not sure what motor is in that bike. But we cant currently provide software support. Definitely send it in for inspection and service. ebikemotorrepair.com/repair-overhaul-service/?v=0b3b97fa6688
I'm the happy owner of 2 brand new Levo's (his and hers) and we love these bikes! But I'm already researching motor repair so I'll be prepared for when that day comes. Unless I find someone competent in my neck of the woods (western NY) I'll be in touch with you. No offense but I hope it's a long time yet😁
hi, can i know about the small gearwheel can move ? because my belt is broken, i open the motor and i realise that the small gearwheel cant move at all. izzit normal ??
that's normal. The side case cover holds the common shaft aligned. That pilot bearing at the tip of that small spindle sets into the case. When the case is off the magnets contact the stator inside the motor preventing the front spindle from rotating.
@ thanks!!!
@ you help me alot!!
I think you should actually design and have built your own motors. I.e a full upgrad option . This video was very honest and informative. I would feel very comfortable sending you my motor if /when its needing work. Thanks James 🏁
Über-useful video. Consider me a future customer (Levo Gen 3). I learned a metric tonne of good stuff here. Thx, eh! (from Southern Vancouver Island).
Hello. Is it possible a Motor from other Brands install in a specialyzed kenevo turbo 2019 ?
no. they all have unique mounting bolts. swapping would be impractical and maybe impossible.
whats the turnaround for a brose 2.1 rebuild with uprated bearings and uprated belt? thanks
depends on workload but most people only have about 3-7 business day wait time once an order is agreed on.
No matter what I do I can’t remove the drive pedal off the motor. Ordered a new belt and it’s like it’s in with epoxy. I’ve left lubricant overnight and nothing works. It’s at the point where I’m considering grinding it off and get a new arm Anyone with tips I would be extremely grateful. Mine is this bike with a magnesium motor, same year
you should just send it to us to see if ew can get it resolved for you. ebikemotorrepair.com/repair-overhaul-service/?v=0374e8de2d70
Sounds like a Nissan CVT transmission problem 😂. I was about to pull the trigger on a 2024 gen 3 levo. The motor issues scared me away. 😅😢 How much does that whole rebuilt service goes for with you guys?
I have a turbo Tero x 4 and want the stronger motor of the x6 @90nm. Is this something I can swap out and it’d work??
@@danarevalo5861 I believe they have systems that prevent that sort of swap. And I’m not aware of workaround.
Hey I replaced my belt on my brose motor which is in a 2018 specialized turbo levo. Once I got it back togather the motor isn't working/assisting well pedaling. Do you no what my problem could be? Cheers

Thank you for this video. I changed my belt and first I opened the wrong side od the motor which unplugged the sensor and when I turned the bike on it had an error. I remembered this video and went in again, removed the crankshaft and plugged the pins, now it works, no errors 😅 🎉
Very impressive!!!
Beste Ik hoop het dat je kunt me helpen . Mijn bosch middenmotor performance cx Ger2 gaat niet aan ik heb alles geprobeerd zoals nieuwe batterij en nieuwe display en displayhouder en nieuwe batterij kabel en helaas de motor gaat niet , ik heb een keer de motor kunnen open doen om te kijk wat de oorzaak is maar helaas ik zie niks speciaal. Ik denk dat elektronisch probleem is .. Ik hoor graag je antwoord Met vriendelijke groeten.
2k miles on my 2018 kenevo i believe the belt is starting to slip but only on heavy pressure peddling is that kinda normal for 2k miles
@@ZRome187 hi there. Thanks for your comment. We can definitely help you fix the problem. However, belts don’t slip. When they break, they fail catastrophically. Usually slipping is a result of a failing clutch bearing inside the belt pulley. I bet you are due for an overhaul. If you will visit our website and fill out the service ticket form and send your motor on it. Also feel free to reach out for any questions through our website. EBikemotorrepair.com.

What size puller is that?
@@chillinvillin21 no idea. It’s not critical. I sometimes grab whatever puller I can find around the shop.
Thanks! @@ebikemotorrepair
Hi, I'm from Mexico and I would like to know if you have the specifications of the band.
It is made by Brose now. They used to be made by Gates. also there are other bands that will spec the same but DO NOT USE THEM!!! they break so easily if you dont use the OEM part. This is one example of when to use only OEM parts. Those belts are made from carbon fiber and will withstand the torque generated by the internal motor. No other substitutes even come close to holding up. Trust us, we have seen it all.
Hi, I would like to see the controller, have you got a picture of it? I also would like to see the différent wires connected to it.
Hi Sorry but we dont do a whole lot with those parts and I dont think we have anything to reference for you. Your local bike shop should be able to help.
In my 2018 Fantic Integra 180 w Brose gen 1 alut motor there is one odd feature. After 5 to 10 minutes intense riding with boost power setting it a bit looses power and isn't cinsistant with power delivery within one crank circle. And always when I then do a couple of cracking circles backwards, the motor immediately starts delivering boost power as it should. Has anybody experienced similar and maybe found what wrong? What do you Bike Motor Repair guys think about that?
@@karraite that is actually odd behavior. It is possible that you could have either a power delivery issue such as a connection, plug or socket or even wire harness that is faulty or damaged. Your battery could be going bad. There are also some clutch bearings in those units which can begin to slip. However, the backwards rotation fixing your problem, is a bit mysterious to me. When you have the intermittent power, are you seeing any error codes?
would you know what's wrong with it, if you only hear grinding noise from the motor when you on the higher gear? meaning when going uphill, the motor start making the grinding noise.
@@RonA-s1g these kinds of noises, believe it or not can be quite tricky to figure out without tearing into the motor. And sometimes we find that it’s not the motor at all. You should try riding with the motor off and see if you can still get the sound to occur. it doesn’t rule the motor out completely if you still hear the sound, but it sure does begin to pinpoint the only possible culprit in the motor. Also, this would highlight a lot of other culprit outside of the motor. Such as pedals, crank arms, chain, rear, cassette, etc.
Thanks, what a great video. Do you have x-ring seals assembly/upgrade video available? Do you know the axel diameter, 30mm? I would like to try putting the rockshox x-ring seals because they are about the same size than axle.
Hi. Thanks for the comment. We only offer currently those seals with our in house upgrade service.
Great info! Thanks!
Hi my brose motor display comes on and in 2 seconds it turns off can you help me cheers
you might have a chaffed wire or bad connection between motor and TCU. I would start looking there.
i just pulled apart a mag s its fun to fix
Great video covering the problems , iv'e come across your video searching my own failure trying to figure out what could be the problem. I have a Brose 2.1 in a Kenevo 2021. i pulled off my drive and thought that doesn't feel right then rode 100yds and the motor made a loud whirring noise and vibration through my feet . I stopped to check it and it powered down and now unable to power up the bike but rode the bike home with the power off. When i try to turn the front sprocket backwards it has resistance and feels notchy , from your experience would you say it could be the electrical motor or planetary unit failure and is unrepairable? thanks
@@markfoster1697 so first of all other than a hardware failure there’s really not a lot we cannot fix and these motors. However, there are several culprit that can manifest a similar symptom. Your best bet is to just send it to us for an inspection. Let us crack it all the way wide open and see what the heck is going on in there. If you visit our homepage, there is a big green button that says open a service ticket filled out that form and send your motor in. Also let us know if you have any questions as well. Emails is probably the best platform to carry on a deeper conversation about everything but feel free to reach out.
@@markfoster1697 worth mentioning… since the video was published we made a way to remove and replace the planetary gears and have not yet published an updated video about it. Work on that now actually n
Thanks for this video. Very informative. BUT I have to say that the "strech" bolts look like a 5 or 6mm and they ain't gonna stretch at 3Nm plus a turn unless they're made of plastic.
Interesting. I’ll be curious to hear what you think it should be. Also keep in mind We didn’t set the specs on them though. Also the “stretch” does not need to be a lot. We’re talking thousands of inch of stretch if that. The main purpose of the stretch bolt is in part to produce friction for a good hold and second in part as to not damage the hard magnesium metal threads. Also, with those specs pointed out in the video we have had zero issues with bolts loosening over time as gaskets compress. I will leave you with this little tip; in a pinch at those specs you can usually get one more use out of them if you’re careful.
Добрый день! Подскажите, у меня мотор Brose Drive C при включении поддержки для подъема велосипеда по ступенькам велосипед отказывается ехать вверх, при том что по ровной поверхности он едет, а в верх просто как будто ему не хватает мощности? При этом уровни поддержки при работе педалями работают исправно.
thanks for all the tips, trying to asses if it is worth replacing my belt and bearings on a 2017 Sp Vado. I am experiencing so issues on the drive side. it is incredibly stiff to turn the planetary gears even thou it all looks clean and good. I guess the bearing behind the gears is gone. does this make it scrap? Thanks for the video!
@@oliverbruchhauser9342 in almost every case we have an option to service the motor for less than replacement cost. Definitely worth sending it to us. We don’t charge to inspect.
So how do I remove the motor on my Specialized Vado 5.0
@@danielplummer9902 here’s one for a Levo. Pretty similar. ruclips.net/video/KXamt7MGzAQ/видео.htmlsi=e2k3JV6tiJ8CLRKj
This video has just convinced me to buy a hub drive motor ebike. Much simpler and less to go wrong
@@fractalofgod6324 ok but hub motors fail just as frequently and are not easily repaired due to most manufacturers don’t even offer support of any kind. Plus in many cases to change bearings you have to remove the hub from the rim. This is a lot of work. I’m not a huge fan of hub motors for the use in mountain bikes or serious commuter or road bikes. If you’re just putting around a beach town or golf community then hub motors are great.
Why I look at those engines and what I see is "designed to fail"
@@ilove2learn783 I can see why you’d say that but I must say anything mechanical will eventually fail. Chains, tires, cassettes, brakes, essentially anything on a bike will all need servicing or repair at some point. We have some customers getting 4000-6000 miles out of one motor before needing overhaul. So I would say they are not designed to fail but think of it more like they need servicing about every 3500-4500 miles. Give or take. With some failure occasionally happening sooner and some later.
Hi. Can you make a video on how to actually remove the drivetrain from the motor? I had my replaced under warranty, but I asked to keep the motor. The actual problem was cracking noises when putting force on the pedals. It's not the belt, I opened it up. So I would like to check if is any of the bearings. I've seen the other videos, but all of them skip over the part of actually removing the drive train. Any help is appreciated. Thx.
@@DSBenny cracking is usually from things that are a bit challenging without the correct tools. I would advise you send it in for service but our partner in the UK has made a lot of videos on the rebuild process ebikemotorrepair.com/brose-s-brose-t-full-motor-overhaul/?v=9a0d701a3b2a

Hi, my 2018 Turbo Como, Brose motor torque sensor seems to sometimes stick for up to 1-1.5 second when pedaling at some gear ratios. I also noticed sometimes I hear electric motor sounding cogging sounds when under heavy load. (Noted that at 6:31 you mentioned sometimes it's only a simple low cost sprag bearing that can be at fault) Is there a fair chance that these symptoms could be simple fixes (possible DIY route with right parts/tools) or is this motor complex/prone enough to water damage/wear that I'm better off getting a new motor? Thanks in advance :)
I would strongly recommend you send this in for service! you might have several things happening and non of them seem to be related to the torque sensor as the problem,. ebikemotorrepair.com/repair-overhaul-service/?v=9a0d701a3b2a

Very good explanation!
i have a Bosch Active Line Plus motor with 4000 miles, its working fine but i would like to know when these need to be serviced?
You are probably getting into territory on that motor that would benefit from an overhaul or service. Everyone’s needs our unique whether you are a fix it when it breaks type of person or a more proactive type of person. The average lifespan on these motors between four and 6000 miles. If you want to get ahead of it then go ahead and send it on in for an overhaul. However, there are things that can fail with similar lifespansand it’s hard to predict exactly what will fail. My point is you may wait until it starts giving you some trouble then we can do a full inspection and overhaul at that time. It’s entirely up to you to make that call.
Wat kun je repareren als de code error 500 op het display verschijnt, de motor doet het dan niet meer.🤷♂️🤷🏻♀️
there are about 90 error code 500's. Most of them are related to software issues. A shop with diagnostics should be able to clear the code and see if it comes back. If it comes back then it could be related to an incompatible accessory. It can also be some parts that have failed in the motor. One of our partners should be able to help if you need more assistance. here is a list of our partners ebikemotorrepair.com/world-wide-partners/?v=7516fd43adaa

My SMag doesn’t have that tensioner bolt
Yeah it does but it's hiding under a small white sticker on the bottom of the case near the case cover.
Awesome. I just purchased a Ride1Up Prodigy XR. All of the bicycle parts are off the shelf items that I can maintain. The Brose motor had me worried though about repair after warranty. I can do this belt change. For anything else on this motor, I can just send it to you guys.
This video might seem scary but in all honesty Brose is one of my favorites because it is a very well performing motor in all areas. Quiet, intuitive, powerful... Sure send it on over when it gives you trouble.
The Brose E-motor is a great motor, but has too much damn 90nm of torque that shreds it's timing belts.
Yes. They are continuing to make them stronger. It’s definitely a point of weakness. But also why they are super smooth and quiet compared to other brands.
