Coil shock options for '19 Levo?

[lookhear]

EXT would be worth checking out. Custom lengths/strokes available. Great reviews. Not sure how they’d fit on a levo frame though.

I have gone with EXT shock and I’m really impressed with it, what made a big difference was to have the forks up graded to a coil with the same weight coil as the shock.

See above post - seems to work well.

Thanks. Missed that or forgot. I've been seeing a few good reports on them

I'm 220lbs too - you'll need spring rate approx 700lbs, which is part number 18074-19.

Thanks Vilt!

Now I'm just having trouble finding a place to buy one in the USA.... I'm moving to the UK...."wish"

Also, anyone running a X2?

Can anyone here running the fox dhx2 please let me know what spring and shock your using? I really want one for my 2019 levo but they don't seem to think they offer one. They say they do not make the proper spring to fit. I see them here though on some of your bikes.

I'm trying to find the same Dhx2 for my Levo. 2020 model year now has 210x50. But that's the closest match I found.

I just got off the phone with fox again. For anyone wondering about a DHX2 it will be available with an expected eta of jun 18th. part number 961-01-216. I am getting one on order.

So I'm assuming you're talking about the 200 x 52.5 but if you wanted the 200x55 they have that one that will work correct?

 

[Shimanomike]

I


You can order the shock @ fox, they don't show it on their page but they can build them.
Didn't expected such a big difference, a lot more grip in corners and it is a lot more active on the small bumps. Very nice!

Is your fox the 200x55 or 200x52.5?

Which DHX2 is that please? Which size fits?

 

[Ddc6284]

210x52.5.... not 200mm

 

[Botts101]

210x52.5.... not 200mm

Noted Thank you

Is it much more plush than the air spring? I have the FOX FLOAT Factory DPS, 210x52.5, 150mm of travel

 

[Shimanomike]

210x52.5.... not 200mm

Yeah i dont know what i was thinking on the size. I was driving down the road when i was typing. This whole shock thing is driving me crazy. Was going to buy Ohlins but they wont return my call. Sometimes it sucks living in the US. Mainly when trying to buy something for an ebike lol.

If you’re in the states you may want to try “push” . Not chap but they’ll build it to fit both you and the bike. Arguably the best
Also dvo. Don’t know if they’ll build that size but they’ll pick up their phone and treat you right

 

[Joeyrotundo]

Did you look into to MRP Hazzard?

Hazzard

That have a 210x50 and a 210x55 ,
I would bet they could modify to 210x52.5 for you without to much trouble.

Grand Junction Colorado USA too.

Yes Push is good but $$$$. Hell - the Sworks was $$$

 

[PSwanson]

Last week I sent PUSH industries an email asking them if they were working on a shock fitment for the 2019 Levo. They responded back "We do not have immediate plans, however it is a bike that we have interest in getting in at some point."

DHX2 looks great! Can you fit a water bottle without clearance issues?

 

[Shimanomike]

Well here is what I decided on and one of the main reasons was because they picked up the phone and had time to chat, unlike some of the other companies. They built my shock to size and sent it out that day. Customer service means a lot to me so kudos to DVO.

 

[Dirtnvert]

Glad that worked. Piece of mind counts I think. Good to have their support. Be good to hear how it rides. The shock shaft looks burley enough, in the pic anyway

 

[Mcharza]

Looking good and DVO's customer service has been always gold

as long as you use a small bottle it will fit, but it is a tight fit

All done with modification on my 2019 Turbo Levo.

Actually it is Turbo KeLevo (levo with Kenevo's wheel travel 180mm on both ends)

 

[Max-E]

Well, one of the nicest looking E-bikes I think I have seen. Chapeau sir!

And if I ever doubted it convinces me again that 'Nice Blue' is the colour. Chunky alloy and a Yeti-ish look - what's not to like?

Thanks for the nice comment on the nice blue bike~ ^^

Some very nice upgrades head to toe on that beaut. Bet that’s fun as. Have you weighed it?

It has a 700wh battery in it...so should be heavier than the normal one since all the upgrades I got are alloys no single carbon parts.

Sensible, both the battery and aluminium(frame atleast). My builds all end up heavier no matter what bike. Mostly tires and aluminum frames because rocks

How did you get to 180mm out back - did you replace the yoke? Looks very tight to the frame in the pics
