Chanced upon Mike Sinyard again and chatted with him for 10 mins about my Levo. He took a video and asked why I was not using Specialized tires and saddle....

I've only ridden the Nisene fire road down...and the flow/braille trails. Is Nisene good too?

when I told him that I already logged over 1000 miles on my SL, he asked if I can test some of their products. I declined....Next time you see him tell him I love my Levo and thank him for making such a great bike!

The trail makers are vegan and really, really thin?

Could you also talk about the finish?
Is it gloss or satin/matte?
I'd like to order invisiframe kit so I can install before riding? Thanx.

the invisiframe 'matte' finish is more satin, it will shine up a matte finish bike. Gloss on gloss is totally fine.

My question was intended to answer what the Spruce color finish from Specialized is, glossy or matte, or perhaps satin? Based on the answer to THAT question, I would know whether to order gloss or matte from Invisiframe?
Also, while we are at it, how about the finish on the Fox 36 Rythm forks, matte or gloss?
Thanx

Dude - tell him I'd love to! I'm in the area too

I haven't seen it in the flesh, but looking at pics and videos online, I'm 95% sure that the spruce is gloss. The oak is matt/satin.

If it's a dark green, that'll be oak, if it's very light green, almost white, then it's spruce. If the latter, please send pics!

Should be getting my spruce Comp in a couple of weeks. I'll post pictures!

Me too (I hope). When asked LBS finally looked into my early September delivery date, now late September plus 1-2 weeks to get to shop. Aaaargh! BTW, they also responded that both the Comp Spruce and the Fox Rhythm fork are gloss (for those interested). Also heard back from invisiframe saying don't order until you have your bike, as all orders are cut upon order with absolutely NO returns. Need to know make & model, finish (gloss or matte) and frame size.
Still exercising patience.............

YOU are exercising patience? Mine is already in the shop! I need to work out a leasing contract first, which will take a couple of weeks. The German government supports ebikes quite strongly with tax benefits, so it's worth the effort. And the frustration of waiting.

So the difference between us is you are waiting for you (and the government), I am waiting for Specialized and then LBS
In both cases, anxiously patient?
Hah... patience... waiting until (if all goes well) half December to get mine (red comp)...

Here is the Turbo Levo Comp in Spruce. Just picked it up last night. My color vision is not the best, but everyone I show it to say it looks Gray. It is a very unique color and I like it!

Thank you for the pics. A handsome beast! I don't think it will be quite so sunny here in Hamburg when I take pics of mine in a couple of weeks

That's a fine bike love picture! Make sure that Specialized doesn't nab it for their promotional material
Nice pic.
What size is that Levo, and is that water bottle touching frame/shock ?
