Product Information
Full details
The Hope E-Bike Speed Sensor - R24 is designed for e-bike owners seeking a reliable magnet configuration system for 6-bolt rotor setups. It offers precise speed tracking by positioning the magnet exactly 24mm from the axle center, ensuring consistent data logging for compatible drive units. While it provides robust build quality and a straightforward mounting process, users must verify their specific motor's magnet requirements, as it is not a universal solution for every e-bike model on the market.

FAQs
Will this work on my Specialized Turbo Levo SL?
No, this sensor is specifically incompatible with Specialized Turbo Levo SL bikes featuring the 1.2 SL motor.
Can I use this with centerlock rotors?
No, this product is specifically designed for use with 6-bolt rotor systems.
What happens if I have less than 4.5mm of clearance?
If you have less than 4.5mm of clearance, the sensor or magnet may strike the frame or brake components, which could cause damage to the sensor or lead to incorrect speed readings.
Does this kit include a magnet?
This product is the sensor unit. Always confirm if your specific e-bike motor configuration supports the standard 24mm magnet positioning required by this sensor.
Is this compatible with floating rotors?
Yes, this sensor is designed to be compatible with both standard and floating 6-bolt rotors.
Troubleshooting
Intermittent speed signal or motor cutting out
Check the gap between the magnet and sensor. Ensure it remains at the required 4.5mm clearance and that the magnet is correctly indexed at 24mm from the axle center.
Sensor contacting the frame during hard cornering
Check wheel bearing tension and rear axle tightness. If the issue persists, verify that your frame has enough lateral stiffness to prevent the sensor from striking the swingarm.
Sensor bolts coming loose
Ensure the bolts are properly torqued to manufacturer specifications and consider applying a small amount of medium-strength thread locker.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- High-quality construction consistent with Hope standards
- Easy to install on compatible 6-bolt rotor hubs
- Compact 3.5mm profile prevents interference with most frames
- Includes necessary mounting hardware
Cons
- Not compatible with Specialized Turbo Levo SL (1.2 SL motor)
- Requires specific 24mm magnet placement
- Requires 4.5mm clearance which may not fit all tight rear dropouts
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, align the sensor with your 6-bolt rotor pattern and secure it using the provided bolts. Before riding, verify that the magnet is positioned exactly 24mm from the center of the axle. Always check that there is at least 4.5mm of space between the sensor and the nearest frame or swingarm component to prevent contact during wheel flex. Regularly inspect the bolts for tightness after the first 50 miles of riding, as vibrations can settle the component. If you are cleaning your bike, avoid using high-pressure spray directly at the sensor interface to prevent water ingress.
