Sure, and that is why Specialized website shows only L and XL in Comp, *none* in Comp Carbon, etc...

$1350 to save about the weight of a full water bottle. Yes, it is rotating weight so that counts for more and if you have the $$$ then why not?

I doubt Spec will include a torque wrench with the "kit bike".

I went from 12 to 11 (SRAM), the HG hub was already there but the change also required a new shifter and derailleur.

The only thing I see that 1Up missed is a better support for the tires... so I printed my own.

Power = torque x rpm, in this case 35 n*m x 70 rpm = (about) 250 watts. For a FF 90 n*m x 60 rpm is about 560 W *but* the motor can only deliver that much power until the heat builds up. From what I can find the FF torque drops off quickly after 60 rpm but the SL does not drop off as quickly...

That, and the 240 W added to our 200 or so still puts us into pro rider power levels, Fwow him to the fwoor, and stwike him woughly.

Not likely Specialized can or will increase the torque since it would require a redesign and they already sell all the bikes they make. Don't be misled by torque numbers, Orbea's 65 n*m does not provide twice the power of SL 35 n*m. Riding tests show more power but by a small margin, maybe...

Here is a mount for a tire pump to fit a Levo SL. The pump is a Topeak Race Rocket (just the name is worth another 2 mph).

I went from 12 speed (Eagle NX on Levo SL) to 11 speed mainly to get a close-ratio cog set (11-50 to 11-32). It required a new shifter, derailleur, and cassette. Since the 11-32 is a road cassette it also required trimming 1.85 mm off the mounting surface of the cassette but by staying with a...

I am on 42.6.1.c and showing that I should take it in for an update. Now that there are not as many nice days to ride I plan to get it updated soon.

The Levo SL is advertised as "2x you", some consider that to mean at 100% the motor puts in 2x as much as the rider. In my riding experience I am more inclined to think it means that 100% is adding as much as you put in (up to 240 watts). In any event the thread "Mission Control App Ride...

My experience is somewhat different, a distinct difference in power levels on the SL. I was cruising in level 1 (35%) with a heart rate of 150, went to level 2 (65%) and heart rate dropped to 130, same flat terrain, same speed. Level 3 (100%) lunges forward and if I drop below about 18 mph the...

We bought a Levo SL and a Como, both without trying them because the dealer could not keep any in stock. I did try a StumpJumper for fit since that was the closest thing to a Levo SL We also tried a Vado since we know someone who has one, that convinced us that Specialized had a pretty good...

Not *the* Central Park but the closest one. ;)

Oops, I forgot this post was still out there. Shortly after writing this I took the bike to my dealer and they reset the wheel circumference, now all is correct and it works great. Thanks for writing though! :)

Changing from 12 speed to 11 I had to change :cassette; shifter; derailleur. I also took 4 links out of the chain but the original 12 speed chain works ok. The 11-32 cassette had to be slightly modified since it is a road cassette (1.85 mm wider than a MTB part). The result is I now have a...

One catch with chain checking tools is a dirty chain may still have some dirt between the rollers and pins, causing the chain to appear less worn than it is. Cleaning a chain we may be about to replace seems a waste of time but it may be the best (only) way to get a true wear reading. I used...

If we are thinking of the same cranks what is noted above is the opposite of what Praxis wrote me regarding removing the crank arms : "Use an 8mm allen wrench and turn the bolt counter clock wise. That’s it. Don’t touch the cap surrounding the 8mm allen bolt. Thanks Praxis Works"
