If the seatpost is at the min/max mark and the seatpost does not meet or exceed the minimum measured insertion
depth of the frame, the seatpost is not inserted deeply enough into the seat tube and should be lowered until it
meets or exceeds the frame insertion requirement. This may result in the saddle being too low. If so, the seatpost
must be replaced with a longer seatpost.
WARNING! Failure to follow the seatpost and frame minimum insertion requirements may result in
damage to the frame and/or seatpost, which could cause you to lose control and fall.
If the seatpost is cut short, the min/max mark on the seatpost may no longer be accurate. Before
cutting the seatpost, note the min/max depth required by the seatpost manufacturer.
WARNING! For general instructions regarding the installation of the seatpost, refer to the
appropriate section in the Owner’s Manual. Riding with an improperly tightened seatpost can
allow the saddle to turn or move and cause you to lose control and fall.
CAUTION: Inspect the seatpost and seat tube to ensure that there are no burrs or sharp edges.
Remove any burrs or sharp edges using fine grit sandpaper.
CARBON FRAMES: Do not apply grease to the contact surfaces between the seatpost and the
seat tube. Grease reduces the friction, which is critical to proper seatpost grip. Specialized
recommends the application of carbon assembly compound (fiber paste), which can increase
friction between carbon surfaces. Please visit your Specialized Authorized Retailer for additional
information.
5.2. SPEED SENSOR
The LEVO SL is equipped with a Speed Sensor magnet, located on the rear hub/disc rotor interface. Dirt and/or
metal debris may accumulate on the Speed Sensor magnet. Too much accumulation may result in interruptions in
motor support and/or inaccurate speed readings.
Regularly check your Speed Sensor magnet for accumulation of dirt and/or metal debris, and clean accordingly. The
frequency of the cleaning depends on your riding conditions, ride frequency and/or brake pad material. Removing
metal debris may require the use of a magnet stronger than the Speed Sensor magnet.
When assembling the rear brake disc, the Speed Sensor Magnet must be installed on the rotor. Four of the six bolts
are standard rotor bolts. The remaining two bolts (M5 x 0.8 pitch x 15mm length, with countersunk flat head) attach
the Speed Sensor Magnet to the rotor.
5.3. HEADSET
The headset uses a 1 1/8” (41.8 x 30.5 x 8mm x 45 x 45°) Campagnolo Standard compatible upper bearing and
a 1.5” (52 mm x 40 x 7 mm, 45 x 45°) lower bearing. Ensure that replacement bearings are compatible with the
Specialized headset specification. No tools are needed for installation or removal of both bearings. Grease bearing
surfaces before installation.
5.4. CHAIN GUIDE
Setting the chainguide position:
Align the chain imprint on the guide with where the chain would be on the chainring.
With the chain in the lowest (largest) gear and approximately 50% sag (let some air out of the shock), inspect
the clearance between the chainguide and the chain. If at this point there is contact between the chainguide and
the chain, rotate the bracket up until there is no longer any contact.
