    Levo SL Gen 1 SL vs Levo motor noise levels

    ...and you call them out by not buying it. Will everyone else? Judging by the interest on here, no. The S-Works is especially bad value for money, choose a Comp Carbon and upgrade. That’s likely the thing that will change their pricing decisions too. As it happens I agree these are insane...

    Levo SL Gen 1 SL vs Levo motor noise levels

    From the reports I’ve read the noise beds in after a little while and isn’t noticeable. I’m willing to bet it’s no noisier than the Shimano motor once bedded in. I don’t find the Shimano motor that loud but others do.

    Levo SL Gen 1 SL vs Levo motor noise levels

    I didn’t say it follows inflation, however it follows the trend in bike prices (especially Specialized, mtb or emtb). Like I say, your prices are cheap over there compared to us and if you don’t like it why post about it all the time (and in a thread about motor noise too!)? Get over it and buy...

    Levo SL Gen 1 SL vs Levo motor noise levels

    Apparently the motor is a little whiny... I leave you to fill in the punch line ?

    Levo SL Gen 1 2018 vs 2020 SL assist levels

    The Brose 2.1 is 4x ‘you’, the SL’s motor is 2x ‘you’. According to this page (which Specialized don’t seem to have updated for the 2.1, let alone the SL motor) the 1.3 is 3.2x you (320%). Turbo Technology | Specialized.com

    Levo SL Gen 1 SL vs Levo motor noise levels

    Are you still banging on about this? The Levo S Works was £9000 here for MY2018, £10000 for MY2019 and is still that price For MY20. Granted the S Works SL is more expensive here at £11k but it follows the inflation in prices. The Founders is just a novelty model. It isn’t the new S Works. In...

    Levo SL Gen 1 Official Levo SL Thread

    Come on man this is a luxury bike and we’re all very privileged to afford any kind of ebike at all in the grand scheme of things. It is not a human right.

    You should probably have to admit that all this is all a bit ‘first world problems’. ?

    Levo SL Gen 1 Official Levo SL Thread

    Specialized, like brands in other industries (cough, Apple, cough) have established their brand to the point their customers value the package of unique design, product presentation, support etc that they provide. Like discussions of why people choose Apple when one can buy an alternative they...

    Doesn’t everyone do this to any pre-built bike? I always have to make it ‘mine’.

    Places to charge e-bike battery in Lake District

    Please support a local business. If you don’t these small towns will end up looking like any usual high street and the local economy/community is ruined.

    Levo SL Gen 1 Levo SL Expert - First Ride

    Don’t necessarily need to do that (Apple to pineapples comparison? :) ). SL Comp Carbon 18.1kg (large, no pedals, tubeless) £6k, Levo S-Works £10k - what’s that 2.5-3kg difference at nearly half the price?

    He’s just scared he’ll hate his YT when it arrives and wish he had an SL that’s 6kg lighter ?

    UCI eMTB XC World Cup Announced ?

    If you think there’s no effort involved in motor racing you’re mistaken. Granted, it’s not with the legs though.

    Invisiframe turn around?

    The pics on the website don’t do it justice then. I’m guessing it’s more of a dark matte finish and less “sweet wrapper”. Would be good to see pics when it arrives. ??

    UCI eMTB XC World Cup Announced ?

    ’Motor’sport has this issue yet motorsport exists. In my view it’s inevitable they’ll sort it out for an e-MTB championship.

    Weight? Best I can figure out is between 700-800g. I’d love to have a more precise difference though.

    Levo SL Gen 1 Official Levo SL Thread

    I was originally drawn in to buying an ebike by the Levo. I rode and liked the ride and even had a deposit down. However I then tried an Orange eMTB (64 degree head angle, longer reach, 27.5”, shorter CS) and the bike felt so much better to me. Some of this was that a Levo medium is smaller than...

    That’s a fair point. More like the Stumpjumper Evo.
