Not much being said that all the new 2021 Levos have a 160mm fork?
That’s quite a change. Yet they haven’t updated the head angle value.

its a mistake on their website, 2021 is slacker due to the 160mm. I had a 2021 expert next to my 2020 expert (with 160mm airshaft change) - they are identical.

i got a bit nerdy and measured it
It's the same amount the flipchip gives you.

And pretty much for every 1cm of extra fork travel you get 0.5 degree head angle change (roughly) on the same brand/model fork.

It ends up making quite a difference especially once you mullet the bike.

Goes from 66 degress to almost 64.5
