Levo Gen 3 2022 Levo S3 Alloy Cascade long travel link + Float Float X2

[Wic_ed1]

Hello all, I recently installed a Cascade Link long travel and Fox Float X2 on my bike. After deflating the canister to inspect clearances, I observed that the canister's top comes into contact with the top tube's underside. Has anyone managed to successfully set up this combo? Appreciate any insights!

Are you trying it in the high or low chainstay position?

I have this set up fine on my S5. What year it’s your X2? It is 230x65 right?

The setup is a 230x65, 2022 Levo Alloy. I needed to sand an area approximately 10mm in length, 2-3mm in width, and less than 2mm in depth. This modification appears to have resolved the issue.
Additionally, the chain stay is in the low position.

Thank you for your replies. I'll capture some images when I have the opportunity and share them in the other thread. Hopefully I can remove this thread if possible.

Nice one. Mine is an Expert in the high position/slack head tube

You never mentioned it, but did you order the link for alloy frames? The original version worked only witch carbon frames.

Turbo Levo Alloy Long Shock Kit (2022-Current) | US | Cascade Components

The one and only long shock kit for the Specialized Turbo Levo alloy. This allows you to install a much longer shock on your bike and greatly stretches the descending characteristics.

Yeah, it’s the link for the alloy frame. Took it out for a blast today and it was great.
