With this update, Specialized has added a setting that can be changed in Mission Control so the bike will always turn on with MicroTune enabled. Previously you would always have to enable MicroTune after turning on the bike. If you are unfamiliar with MicroTune, it allows you to change the assist level on Turbo e-bikes in 10% increments, making sure you get exactly as much support as you want. There is also a pause symbol for when recording the recording is, well, paused.

In the above image, you can see the chain symbol on the left indicating the bike is connected to Mission Control and a circle on the right indicating that the ride is currently being recorded. There are now status symbols for when your bike is connected to Mission Control and status symbols for ride recording. If your bike has a MasterMind TCU (pictured above) and a SRAM AXS rear derailleur, you can now see the battery level and current gear right on the screen! This feature will work out of the box with the S-Works Levo Gen 3 and S-works Kenevo SL, or any bike with a MasterMind TCU that has been upgraded to an AXS rear derailleur. It’s worth noting that even though the motor is disabled, the bike can still be pedaled, so System Lock should be used in conjunction with a physical lock. Removing the battery does not trigger the alarm. Even if the battery is removed, the bike will remain locked until the battery is reinserted, and System Lock is disengaged.

Once engaged, System Lock can only be disabled through Mission Control or by entering your pin on the bike. There is also an option to enable an alarm that will sound if the bike is moved significantly. It will also prevent pairing a new device to the bike so someone cannot pair their device to see your pin. System Lock, when engaged, will disable your bike’s motor. System Lock is an incredible safety feature. Below we go over these new features and how you can get them! Turbo System Lock New features include Turbo System Lock, SRAM AXS live status (for equipped bikes), ride recording status symbols, and the option to set MicroTune as your default start-up mode.
