    All New 2019 Specialized Turbo Levo launched

    That's correct, carbon is stiffer (more brittle) - that's why it cracks so much more easily that aluminum.

    Specialized will not replace a frame that cracked because of a fall for free - at least they did not in my case. I purchased a Carbon Diverge Expert - fell (not hard at all) riding my bike out the bike shop. The bike frame cracked in three places, including both chainstays - with the major...

    I have to disagree. An aluminum bike will not crack as easily as a carbon bike. So where a carbon bike may crack if you fall; an aluminum bike may only have its paint scratched or chipped.

    Does anyone know the largest tire that could fit on the aluminum Turbo Levo FSR on the 29" wheels (would 2.8" or 3.0" tires fit)? Also for North America, will the maximum speed be 20mph (32km/hr); or 15mph (25km/hr) like in Europe?

    Hi from Norway!

    According to a post by eFat in another thread (post 127, bottom page 5): Hello all, so I have two EMTBs in the shop 'basket'...but I can only have one...arrgghhh... - EMTB Forums "You just have to unlock it with a key to remove the battery, so it's easy... but the cover comes with it...

    Hi from Norway!

    Is there a button on the handlebar to change modes (ie, eco, trail, boost); or is it necessary to reach down unto the battery, like the old Turbo Levo (year 2017 I believe)?

    2019 Specialized Turbo Levo. All the details confirmed S-Works PICS

    Do you think most shops would be willing to do that; ie swap 29” wheels out for 27.5”s? And would you know the largest tire size that would fit on 27.5" wheels for the 2019 Levo (alloy version)?

    2019 Specialized Turbo Levo. All the details confirmed S-Works PICS

    Yea, as time passes, leaning more and more towards the Devinci AC XT or DC XT (probably the AC XT; was worried whether its longer travel fork and shock might be too much for me - but I could always use the lockouts if I need to). But will wait the few more days to see confirmation of what the...

    Here's my new 710 plus.

    No worries! Suggest getting a free card that offers the 90-day protection.

    Here's my new 710 plus.

    Not all cards - you need to call your credit card company to confirm whether or not your card offers that protection.

    Here's my new 710 plus.

    If purchasing a new bike with a credit card, some credit cards will cover any damage (even damage resulting from a crash), for the first 90 days after purchase.

    Thanks for your reviews of the Kenevo and the Devinci AC. I have also read elsewhere that the E8000 kicks in quicker, making starting on a steep hill easier than the Brose - which is important for me. Also I don't think I like so much the command post rising so fast, and the tilting thing...

    2018 Demo Levo Carbon comp lands in Oz.
