    FOX38 Factory CROWN DIMENSIONS STD VS EBIKE-VERSION

    This is correct. A 68HT fork is intended to produce a more esthetically appealing transition to the Larger head tube (outside dimension since internally they all accommodate a 1.5" lower headset bearing) on some Ebikes, which in turn were devised for better transition to the larger down tube...

    Fox 36 Rhythm - dent/chip on stanchion

    Your latest photos clearly show that the stanchion is not just dinged but actually dented (pushed in and out of round). You can clearly see that by observing how light reflects around the damaged spot. Heck, the deformity can be seen directly in the last photo. In my opinion, it's time for a new...

    Bent chain

    That was the chain that came on my Gen3 Levo straight from the Specialized assembly line. If you think cheap counterfeits can somehow find their way into Specialized's supply chain, then may be it was a fake. However, before you question the quality or authenticity of those markings, take a look...

    Bent chain

    I was having similar problems with the NX chain on my Gen3 Levo after about 900 miles. Chain was well maintained and not abused. Kept on cleaning, relubing, readjusting everything but the problem persisted. One day the chain broke in the middle of a climb. I repleced the broken link with a spare...

    1st, my 2022 Levo Comp Alloy was equipped with GX level shifter & derailleur form the factory. 2nd, as mentioned in the post above, I just pulled out the shifter cable housing and plugged the holes on both end using small rubber plugs. I had already run AXS for a year on a different bike and was...

    Shimano Battery Issue (refused warranty claim) where do i stand?

    This is straight out of: "Complete E-Bike Battery Care Guide" (you can Google for the full article) E-Bike Battery Best Practices Keep Timing In Mind If you intend to use your bike soon after charging the battery, it’s fine to charge to 100%. If you cannot use it right after your charge...

    I'm contemplating a carbon handlebar for my 2022 Levo Comp. I've been able to lookup the backsweep and upsweep specs for the stock alloy Specialized bar currently on my Levo, but does anyone know the rise? TIA

    Levo Gen 3 Specialized Gen 3 2022 Levo Megathread!

    I agree, I measured mine at 2251 which is pretty darn close. However, the question is why our bikes come configured at 2160? And to change the setting in the Levo controller requires a trip to the dealer.

    LOL. Oh I ride my bike, 3 times a week. Already past 1600 miles since April. I only ask because I ride so much and the difference adds up!

    Levo Gen 3 Specialized Gen 3 2022 Levo Megathread!

    My 2022 Levo has 2160 mm pre-configured for wheel circumference. The same for my buddy's 2023. I've measured the actual circumference on my stock 27.5 x 2.6 Eliminator to be 2251 mm. And I've been looking thru some tire charts and can't find any 27.5 tire with a circumference even close to 2160...

    The chain length on my S3 Levo is 118 links including the power link, which means the chain is cut to 117 links. An odd number of links would leave inner links on both ends which would then get connected by the master outer link. Also, do not cut your chain until you have computed, measured...

    I checked the Comp Alloy photos on Specialized's website and it looks like the black one comes with glossy finish on the Rhythm fork.

    The 36 Rhythm fork on my Green 2022 Comp Alloy definitely came with matt black stickers. Description lookup by S/N on Fox's website also indicates Matt Black finish.

    My 2022 Levo Comp Alloy came with a 34t chainring (although Specialized's website spec sheet shows 32t). So did my neighbor's 2023 Comp Carbon.

    I had simply retorqued those bolts previously as well to no avail. However, try breaking them loose, ride around to get to motor into a neutral position, and finally torque them all to spec. Honestly, I believe it was loosening and tightening of bolt E that did the trick.

    Well, good news is that I found the culprit and fixed it on mine. I've been on four 3+ hour rides since and the absolute silence has been defining! I had tried everything, but in retrospect, except the obvious. I cracked all motor mount bolts loose, and as I was on #E on the diagram, it made the...

    Dork disc. To remove or not remove.....that is the question.

    Ok guys, enough fun has been had so how about a practical response to OP's question? Most bike shops take it off as part of uncrating and preping a new bike. Most will simply cut it off instead of fussing with cassette removal. I mail ordered my current bike, didn't want to cut the disk, and was...

    For clarification: 1) 2022 Levo Expert had an MSRP of $11,000 and is currently on sale on Specialized website, and thru their authorized resellers, at 25% off which would be $8,250. 2) 2023 Levo Expert, with very little changes, had a price reduction to an MSRP of $10,000 and is currently on...

    Not sure about Europe but here in the US $6200 for a new gen 3 Levo Expert would be a really good deal!
