Help me decide! I am going to bite the bullet on a new Levo Comp, the options I have are 2020 for 5600 or 2021 for 6150, I am leaning towards the 2020 because of 4 years warranty and I will swap the forks from my 2018 Levo (Revelation with 2021 160mm air spring and RC3 damper) which will give me a better chance of selling the 2018. Are the Fox 36s worth forgoing the 4 years warranty?

I can’t imagine not doing the 20.....

The bike is niche and bike shops are going to be heavily discounting them soon. Specialized made a mistake because they thought people would pay more for 40% of the power and 50% less battery capacity. £12,000 for the Founders and £11,000 for the S works proves they totally misjudged the market.

Putting a small motor and small battery in to a carbon push bike does not make this the "Ariel Atom" of the ebike world. This is the equivelent of putting a 500cc engine and a 25L fuel tank in to a ford focus and calling it a "race car" Then charging more for it than the RS model.

The concept of a light ebike is sound but this first attempt will be a flop for bike stores and they will be giving them away end of the season. Maybe when solid state batteries and tiny 70nm motors are here it will catch on better.
I’m in the market for an SL after recently demoing one, so when can I expect this give away/ dramatically reduced pricing you speak of?
