Okay this is what we know in regards to SRAM transmission on Gen 3 Levo. The Levo has a 52mm chain line, this is set by the position of the motor in the frame and the offset on the spider. If you buy the groupset with a 104BCD chainring you will be running the same 52mm chain line.

You need to buy the the XX/X0 Eagle AXS E-Bike Transmission Groupset with 104BCD chainring. This kit does not include the cranks. The kit will include the correct chainring but it will be 36T. I would imagine the chainring included with the frame will be the correct t-type 104BCD version (this...
It's not the same crank as the analog SRAM DUB cranks, the only thing they have in common is the DUB interface. It looks like the SRAM model number is FC-S996 and it will be available in 165/170/175.
I heard the 2024 updates are supposed to fix the issues with the X2, I was told that faulty shocks will be repaired with the updated 2024 parts. Mine also need to be repaired as well as my 38 that is leaking air from the air spring into the lowers! :mad:

The direct mount chainring should give you a 55mm chain line with a Brose motor but because the motor is offset on the Levo, you end up with around a 57mm chain line. You can remove 2mm off the chainring to give you a 55mm chain line.
The 104BCD chainring doesn't define the chain line, it's set...
As per my previous post, I've been running the DM chainring for around a month now without any issues. Have you measured the chain line? Even if the chain line was out by a couple of mm I wouldn't expect to have the issues you are describing.
SRAM tech support are pretty good, might be worth...
I'm really not sure why people are modifying the DM chainring. When I removed the original spider and chainring and compared it to the DM chainring, there was around a 3mm difference. This makes sense as the original spider gives a 52mm chain line and the DM should give you a 55mm chain line...
Agreed on the crank front, I also ran both the SRAM and Praxis cranks and they both felt similar. I decided to run the Praxis cranks as I can see the advantages or a narrower Q-Factor for both clearance and my knees!
The SRAM cranks don't have a specific offset for the Brose and Bosch kit, they...
I'm not sure why people are modifying the DM t-type chainring. The Levo Gen 3 runs a 52mm chain line as standard, the spider not the chain ring achieves this offset. If you use the 104BCD t-type chainring with the standard spider you will have the same 52mm chain line.
The DM chainring in the...
It's probably not worth purchasing a 500wh battery for the weight saving alone. If you want/need an additional battery and you know that some of your rides only require a smaller battery, then you can benefit from a slightly more agile bike that is marginally easier to manhandle. I tend to...
Around 700 grams. I run both in my Gen 3, 500wh battery makes a noticeable difference to the handling.
I've got a brand new spare 500wh battery if anyone is looking for one at a good price...
A 104bcd chainring is not offset, the spider (or a spacer) is used to achieve the desired offset. As standard, the Levo runs a 52mm chainline.
The manual calls out that the chain guide should be removed if a 36t chaining is used. There are some adapters available that allow you to run the chain...
From my experience, running the direct mount chainring (included in Brose kit or available separately) in conjunction with Levo specific cranks (Praxis, Hope etc.) gives the best setup.
One annoying thing I have discovered is that if you use a 36T chainring (included as part of both the 104BCD...
