Thanks for the component weights Gary. By changing the front fork, bar and stem I'm looking for less vibration on the hands and a more compliant ride at the front. Actually want to slightly slacken the head angle with the 160 fork and of course get better HSC and LSC control.
Main reason for...
SL pedals very well, in fact, so little drag I actually shut off the motor on some climbs. When riding off or above motor support (faster than 20 mph here in the USA) you can easily outpace a standard Levo. With the standard Levo I actually found I wanted to slow down a little bit to stay on...
I bought the large SL carbon comp last Wednesday and couldn't be happier with my decision. I struggled with wanting to buy the standard Levo or the SL or maybe the Kenevo. Truth is I didn't even know about the SL until one day before it launched and I demoed it that day. Over the past year...
Love the SL though....it feels great everywhere including the hills...just have to work a little harder than a Levo rider to get up to the top. Once there, the flats, over jumps, tight switchbacks uphill and down, berms, flow trails, anywhere else it brings smiles and don't miss a levo at all.
Definitely will work harder on the SL compared to the normal levo to go the same distance. Got passed by a Levo rider today going up a hill... I was hauling ass but he went right by me....he could have been eating crackers on his way up.
Welcome, I'm in Los Gatos with the new Levo SL and love it. Had my heart set on the Levo but it was always too heavy. The SL changes that.
I'm sure you will love the YT.
Hello,
Just picked up the new specialized Levo SL and love this bike. I have the black comp carbon and plan to make several upgrades to the components to get it down to 36 pounds or so.
Was able to score 10% off which is not too shabby. Had it set up tubeless and swapped the stock tires for...
