Levo Comp...

Is that not a base model?

 

[willeco]

Is that not a base model?

The base model would be the Turbo Levo (equipped with RockShox and Sram).
The Turbo Levo Comp has Fox and Shimano SLX.

 

[bikechiq]

On the specialized website, It lists the Turbo Levo Comp, and then the next step to get the Carbon is the "Turbo Levo Expert Carbon" for $8900. Is there not a "Turbo Levo Comp Carbon" or do you have to go all the way up to the "Expert Carbon" to get a Non SL carbon model?

 

[willeco]

Specialized site mentions this:
Men's Turbo Levo Comp Carbon

€ 6.799,00
Item no.: 95219-4202

 

[tacoma22]

Which one is it?

It is the comp

 

[rriveroll]

Has anyone used a BMZ charger on a Specilized Levo? They make a 2A Car Charger with the same plug

Hi all. I moved the flip chip to the high position just because of too many crank strikes.

I also flipped the shock around so that an extra large 1 liter water bottle now fits properly. This extra space could also work for those adding an extended battery

Mine is a Large Aluminum Levo

I didn’t think a Levo could take an extended battery.

I didn’t think a Levo could take an extended battery.

There are some kits out there from Levo-range-extender.com or trailwatts.com that could work. At least on the aluminum large with the shock upside down seems like both the small 250wh and the large 378wh bottle battery might fit.

Oh wow I had no idea these existed. Thanks!

I noticed there wasn't a 2021 owners thread, so here we go! I ordered a 2021 Levo Comp, Large, in redwood color on July 16th and I was told late Aug for delivery in US.

Update: Got it, love it.

Enjoy
Following a 7,000 km ride on my Turbo Levo Comp 2020, I expect to get my new 2021 model next week

Turbo Levo HT

 

[willeco]

About 350 km, no issues yet
Changes: bigger chainring (36), 10/45 cassette, beefier grips, Fizik saddle,

and this nice little piece to keep the mud away from the main pivots:

Are the 21’s (maybe all years) 66 degree HA in the low position? I noticed in a video I watched it said they put the bike in the low position to have a 65.5 HA. Some reviews also claim this.
Of course the website says 66 but does not say whether it is low or high. Just one set of geo.

I think it is 66 in high and 65.5 in low but don't take my word for it ?

I measured my bottom bracket and it seems to match the specialized website so it makes me think low is 66.

Assuming I measured the BB correctly. Just went off the middle of the bolt in the crank arm

 

[HopperMtb]

I thought when they went from 150 fork to a 160 fork for 2021 if would have slackened the bike out .5 degrees but I guess it depends on axle to crown lengths of the fork more than anything

 

[TBL79]

I measured my -21 comp with stock 36 fox and in low position and with phone angle calculator and it shows 65. Fox ac is 569. I think those geometry charts on Specialized site is older with 150 fork?. Ordered 38 Zeb ultimate with 160 travel,Zebs ac is 576.

Interesting idea to flip the shock. I might try that when I rotate the flip chip after moving from 150 to 160 mm Debonair.

Yeah could be. I measured my HA with an angle finder app as well and it seems to show around 65.5. So idk? Lol.

Hi Guys
