Other Any news on 2022 Levo Alloy models being released.

[Kenevo]

Where did you get that info ?

 

[Stan23]

the "old" alloy models seem to have disappeared from the Specialized website

Not in the US.

 

[JSQ]

They are alive and in some shops already. Release date 14th December.

 

[JetSetDemo]

you can find the specs on line already if you search.

500w battery and 29 front and rear, does that indicate it’s just a 2.2 motor change and paint only no geo change for alloys?

It's a mullet. I'm staring at it right now...

Cool that’s good news, didn’t list it as a mullet where I fond it.

I saw the comp carbon tonight in Switzerland, mine arrives in 2 weeks. The Alloy from what I understand is the same as 2021 and a 29er and doesn't come with new display. Chf9100 for carbon and alloy about 100 more than 2021. If you want a 2022 you have to be quick as there is still major shortages across the whole range.

More info now appearing

The all-new Levo delivers the unbelievable power to ride more trails through an unequaled combination of ride quality, usable power, and ride anywhere range. It’s the distillation, application, and amplification of a 40-year obsession with creating the world’s best riding mountain bikes. Since its introduction, Levo has set the bar every other e-MTB aims for, and the new Levo raises that bar again.
It starts with our Turbo Full Power 2.2 motor and MasterMind Turbo Control Unit (TCU), which provide Levo with a smooth and seamless amplification of your efforts—4x you power that lets you choose where to ride, and when you want to do it. Levo also shatters limitations when it comes to range, amplifying your effort for up to five hours of trail time. Now you can ride farther, and explore more, than ever before. And the optimized chassis boasts 150mm of custom-tuned rear suspension and adjustable geometry that delivers a stable and natural ride like no other. Because at the end of the day, it’s the ride that matters. Believe it.
The Turbo Levo pairs our all-new M5 alloy chassis and the smoothest and most powerful motor on the market with the most value-packed drivetrain, suspension, and brake components available. The result is a bike that puts plenty of high-dollar e-MTBs to shame.

• Levo’s fully integrated Turbo Full Power 2.2 motor, 500Wh battery, and advanced MasterMind Turbo Control Unit deliver category-leading 90 Nm of torque and 565 watts of power for up to five hours of ride time, empowering you to ride farther and faster than ever before.
• The MasterMind Turbo Control Unit is your information hub with customizable display fields, including the exact percentage of battery level, and it features our all-new MicroTune function to adjust power delivery in 10% increments, so you get exactly the support you need to experience precisely the ride you want.
• A dedicated mixed-wheel size design with a 27.5” wheel in the back and 29” up front delivers a nimble ride that carves circles around other full-power e-MTBs. A generous cockpit centers you on the bike, optimizing traction and corner control. The low bottom bracket, slack headtube angle and reduced fork offset keep things stable in the rough.
• Levo offers two distinct geometry settings, allowing you to easily dial-in its performance for any riding style and any terrain. Bottom bracket height can be fine-tuned up or down by 7mm.
• Levo’s 150mm of rear travel is supple on small bumps, devours square-edged hits without a twitch, eats massive G-outs for breakfast, yet still offers amazing pedal response and delivers your power to the ground with total efficiency.
• The Levo’s S-Sizing is based on what matters—rider size and style, not inseam. Six sizes, all with similar headtube lengths and standover, allow you to choose the size that best suits your individual style. Smaller S-Size numbers are going to be nimble and more flickable, while bigger S-Sizes deliver more stability and a roomier ride.

Was the colour scheme called black/dove grey/black?

 

[Juancho_OZ]

Is that the Sage colour?

maybe... to be honest i didnt even bother about colour when i ordered back in May. I asked for grey colour scheme or whatever similar.

I also forgot to mention that the bike comes with the adjustable headset cup which gives -1/+1 degree angle.

Rode it today and I absolute loved it. So much power, compared to 2021 Hard Tail, really smooth riding. Beast climber.

Looks enticing but a 500wh battery???

 

[Juancho_OZ]

700 wh battery

 

[gbarfoot]

This alloy is exciting. I have a deposit on a US 21 kenevo for a great deal and if this is coming to the US I may change my order.....I'm guessing will be same price factoring in the discount on the kenevo

 

[bikeguy11]

700 wh battery

Thanks for the clarification. Was just curious as a couple of the posts on this thread mention 500wh in quoted specs.

 

[kawamaha]

Thanks for the clarification. Was just curious as a couple of the posts on this thread mention 500wh in quoted specs.

The 700Wh is the Comp. So if there are specs with a 500Wh battery it seems that there is actually a base model arriving...

Yes indeed as you can see in post 63 above...

 

[40bung]

Where did you get that info ?

Hopefully from a reasonably reliable source. Ha, time will tell

 

[maynard]

Is that the Sage colour?

Sage??? No ! it's called man green .

 

[40bung]

Sage??? No ! it's called man green .

(He he he)

 

[ChewyPDX]

I will refer to mine as "Silver Sage". Sounds more masculine.

 

[40bung]

Picks his one up tomorrow (NZ)

 

[muff]

Gents,
what is your opinion, please? It is good deal to buy cheeper Gen.2 (Turbo Levo) or Gen. 3 (price difference is ±600EUR) From my point of view there is difference in geo and motor. (and I don't want to ride downhills, just trek). Many thanks

There is no difference in motor apart from a number. From a re-sale perspective I would go with the Gen3. If you are not bothered about price then go with the Gen2 as the geo will be very slightly better for your type of riding.
