This sounds more like how I think I’m seeing people naturally jump. It’s the bounce down , literally described as stand on your pedals both flat position. As the front wheel hits the sweet spot of the jump - kinda like near where it starts to curve up. Pump downwards with you legs. All...

Cheers for the link. I’m trying to pre load but it feels so unnatural . Coach was getting us to essentially be really low squared as me rode into the ramp and then last second bounce down from an already crouched position. When I watch videos I see people looking in a more natural stance...
So a general question about bike sizing and its impact on things like jumping.
Could be totally unrelated but I'm currently on a bike ( trek Slash 2021 ) which is a Large and i feels too big for me. the reach is too long, and I've shortened the stem and high rise bars, more sweepback. Bike is...
Hi all.
I’ve read different information about the headset adjustment cups which come with comp and above Levos..
I bought a 2022 alloy base model this week. Ice blue colour.
Can anyone with this particular bike ( even colour ) confirm if you’ve explored the headset cups for a base alloy...
I’d like to at least see a mastermind upgrade for older Levo for sale given it’s now default on all models .. 2024 base alloy has it and 700w battery. As it’s no longer a spec difference they can now offer it as an upgrade option :)
Hi.
Looking at the 2024 e+1 on a big special. Has great running gear but reading about all the x2 shock issues scares me a wee bit. Anyone know if the 2024 model comes with the “improved “ x2 or the problematic one. Date wise it should be the improved model but anyone have a 2024 reign e+1...
Cheers. I guess my question is if 5k is worth the extra for the pivot and levo. Huge difference in cost. Pivot have no intention on dropping price either :(.
So I’ve been researching my first ebike. I have back issues so want a high stack. Currently ride trek slash 8 2021 size large. Riding blue trails at bike park. Hoping to try some blacks but will probably ride around features.
Looking at ( prices in my currency)
Pivot shuttle am base spec...
This bike is different. On the top tube the specialized logo is not a decal. It’s actually embossed . The logo physically coms out of the frame :). That’s the part I’m wondering about normal decals are fine. But the pressed metal will be challenging
Finally got to demo a shuttle am. Thought I was getting the large, rode the bike , loved it other then creaky seat and dropper. Got home to clean it for return and found medium on the frame. So guess I’m a medium as I really loved it. Demo model was the middle model pro xo eagle model...
How do you find the bike? I’m tossing up between this a turbo levo or Rocky Mountain. Generally a large on all bikes ( 180cm tall ). Did you switch stems? Can you also raise the stems up?
Sorry for bumping an old topic but I’m currently exploring the altitude a70/c70 vs the specialized levo ohlins. Keen on people’s thoughts. Would love a fun bike. Not a battleship . Not a huge technical rider. Prefer flow and jumps. Also 105kg ( 230 ish lbs ). Any thoughts? Does the Rocky...
Yeah it’s an option but honestly trips to Aussie are not cheap even from New Zealand . Probably just pick up the ohlins edition. Was looking at a pivot shuttle am or Rocky Mountain altitude powerplay but both don’t have stock and the levo is better spec. Can’t justify the pivot as it 1500...
