Specialized Mastermind TCU work with older Gen 2 Levo, SL, Kenevo? - New bike computer compatible?

[Swaggerlot]

Cool, you've answered the first question that came to mind when I first saw the Levo 3 reviews.

I have a 2019 Carbon comp Levo, and I will happily upgrade when available.

Your RC Car videos are great ND that carries over to the MTB world as well.
Thanks

I really hope they offer this officially and make it a thing. Thanks for the video

I'm purchasing a 2022 Turbo Levo Comp Alloy, and it does not come with the TCU-2 Mastermind Controller; however, I will replace the stock controller when they become available. I would put the max amount I'm willing to spend at $600.00, I'm not sure it would be worth it to spend more than that.

Great video! Thank you!

[sapyproducts]

That’s great. I’m glad it’s compatible. I think it’s something I would get to upgrade if my current one stopped working… if the price isn’t ridiculous though. Thanks for sharing!

[motodirthead]

Thank you for testing this. I would definitely pay $200 to upgrade.

[adampalka]

This is really cool. If the pricepoint is not to high (150 / 200 € ) i would buy one for my levo sl

[SpielSatsSieg]

Would buy this instantly for my 2020Expert! Really really cool feature!

[oscarsosa]

This is great news. I will upgrade if price is reasonable. I just got a based model 2021 and that new TCU looks like a great addition.

Fantastic news Francis. I was wondering about this myself. One thing to still be determined is if the Mastermind TCU can also monitor the optional 160wh supplemental battery on the Levo and Creo SL models. Maybe it would show 150% for that dual battery setup when fully charged. Many thanks again for being the Mad Scientist!

[georgenorco]

Earned my sub with this one - thank you for your experimentation and sharing!

[soul]

Any news about this?
i heard it wont be backwards compatible anymore due a firmware update.

[mcridr]

I would definitely be interested. The $200 range and if it works with my 2021 Turbo Levo Comp.

[jackcoul]

Thanks for the info Francis, as always you do great videos. I would defiantly pay $200.00 for this upgrade for my Levels

[williammitchell]

Thanks for the great info. I have an gen 2 levo sl. I don't see the Mastermind available for sale yet. I'll check with my LBS. In the meantime, my Garmin Edge 830 gives my my battery remaining info as a % down to one degree. The Garmin also talks to my AXS derailleur and tells me what gear I'm in and tells me what time it is, of course. It does not however tell my my AXS battery remaining. But it does give me a "critically low" battery level warning.

Thanks for the video. I called Specialized and they told me TCU2 is not compatible with my 2021 Turbo Levo Comp.

[blackflys]

I love this part, 200$ is the best price to buy 👍🏽

[robertshorey]

When I saw your video 3 years ago I was excited. Now these devices are finally available. Can you update your video to show how to install and update these devices to operate on LEVOs and Creos would be useful.

For pricing - So, let's just be realistic that this is nothing more powerful than a RasberryPi - 75 USD at high end. A high end GPU is 600+ USD. This would be a custom ASCII. However, they will have quantity... but China shipping problems.

If they make it reasonable, for what it is considering the current market, then yes, I would upgrade my Levo SL.

Same will hold for the motors, as and if they semantically version those and make those minor-update compatible.

Thank you, Specialized!
