I just ordered the Super Deluxe ultimate coil, I read that the hydraulic bottom out is great for the linear suspension of the Levo.
Will report back once I try it.
Thanks to everybody for their insights, it helped to put to rest the agony of the decision.
Hi, the shock on my gen2 Levo expert got damaged when the shop tried to service it so now I am looking for a replacement.
The local Rockshox dealer is trying to convince me that the best option would be the Super deluxe ultimate coil but I am no sure if an air shock would be a better option...
I did perform the update last night, I am very happy with the results but I still need to do a ful ride to see if I notice any difference. Walk mode is running great! Better than with any previous update. it engages instantly and every time! (something it didn´t do before).
The only things I...
I did update it, my advice would be: If you do not need walk assist to clear very technical bits go ahead, otherwise think twice as pulling that heavy bike uphill is no fun at all!
I should have skipped the update...:cry:
Yes, Specialized sells them, they are a great option to have as a spare tube. The only downside is that they are heavey and bulkier when folded compared to a regular tube.
Do you feel it is un-stable or chattery? I would suggest that you try the low position and make sure you have set up the suspension correctly, I found that the suggested tyre, shock and fork pressures too high for single track use, I also removed volume spacers.
In the end I went to a Lyric...
It can use wider tires. I tried HR2 27.5 x 3.0 on 45mm wheels on mine. The fit is tight but no rubbing. Battery range took a hit compared to the original 29x2.6
Acceleration setting affects how quickly power ramps up when you put more pressure on the pedals. a quick way to notice the effect is when you stall and need to re-start on a steep hill. Too little and you will struggle to make enough momentum, too much and you might have issues with loosing...
I have been using the combination of smart power and smart HR together and I it is the best for me! I set up smart power to effort that I want to make and use smart HR as a "safety meassure" in case the smart power setting is not enough.It might sound complicated but once I found the setting I...
I switched to Sqlab 30X 12 degree carbon bar and the combination of carbon and increased sweep Made all the difference! Gone are numb hands and palm pain!
I found a Lyric ultimate 29" 160mm 42 offset for what seems a very good price (around 700 usd) and want opinions from other users as well as setup suggestions. I have a 19 Levo expert and are not completely satisfied with the Pike in small bump sensitivity and overall feel. What would be the...
I would suggest giving tubeless a try, it is really not expensive in my book. The only thing you will need is to purchase the sealant (Stans in my case) and check the level twice a year. The Tubeless valves should have come with your bike.
Just for reference this is how it looks in the high position so that other might be able to compare. And also how the bike looks with the plus tyres...
As said many times, saddles is a very personal preference, but I have tried a few and the ones I like the most are from SQLabs, I tried first the 611 active and absolutely loved it, I was suffering from low back pain after about 2 hour rides and the pain was gone after the saddle change! In fact...
Well, my apoligy…
I was too quick to reply and did not notice the gap between the shock and the yoke. it is in the LOW position.
It seems I did not understood it as well as I thought :ROFLMAO:
Thank to everybody for responding!
Yesterday I changed it to the high setting, it was very easy to do as stated here. The reason for changing is that I am trying a plus wheelset I have with High rollers in 27.5 x 3 and on the first ride I was getting more pedal strikes. I rode it again today and...
