All that stuff comes stock on a Merida e160 900e

A stock Merida e160 is not available in the USA. Great value for a bike with that spec.
Besides the Merida retails for $7999.99. The Levo Comp is $5950.00
After our component trade-up program he got the bike for $7200 plus tax. Which is still less expensive than the Merida and he’ll have a coil shock.

If suspension and brakes are changed why get a comp? Get the baseline and save even more $$

Pretty simple all of the Black base models are sold out.

Don’t forget to post pics up when finished.

1 question, new disc rotors as well or utalising the Sram

Best thing I did to my 2018 levo comp FSR was to put the 170 mm lyric fork on it. Like buttaaaaa! Would work even better with the '19 model with 150 mm shock.

Doesn’t going 170mm void the warranty? Seem to recall someone saying somewhere in the owners manual it says the frame only rated to 160mm

Not really worried because I only weigh 140 pounds and doubt I could break the bike. If some unrelated warranty issue came up I would slap the stock fork back on and take it into the bike shop.

 

[R120]

Yeah it wouldn’t worry me either, but since it came up in another thread it has intrigued me on what the reality of the situation would be

Looks great thanks for sharing - inspirational. I think it's illegal to supply a bike over here in the UK with pedals if they don't have reflectors, also i think our wheels need reflectors and we need a bell too Health and Safety laws in effect.

 

[Doomanic]

You’re quite right. All those parts were supplied on my last two bikes. I assume supplied in a box is sufficient?

 

[daju]

Great Pix. Thanks
I'm about to get my turbo levo and paying close attention. 700 Watt battery and RockSHox Reverb post on the way.
Are you getting fatter tires? Do you know haw wide we can go?

Looks sick!! I have a similar upgrade on my '19 Levo Comp, I went with Ohlinis 160mm fork and 210 x 55 Marzzochi coil...

How is the suspension working out?
