To be honest, Im Starting to regret my purchase as well. I’ve been going up and down and owning the bike for about a month. I live in the US, and while support has been super solid, I’m starting to get annoyed with the fact that I have to tinker And fix shit after every ride. Now the bike is creaking like a haunted house and sill have to start tearing the frame apart to find the source of that problem as well. I honestly have not done 2 consecutive rides without working on the bike and they’ve sent me multiple warranty parts.
While I’ll never own another specialized because I despise the company, I wouldn’t question someone from paying the premium for a Levo. At least they get multiple rides before a failure...
thats just called owning a bike... always a few things to get sorted in the beginning.. once you get it dialed it should be good to go. I’ve had very few issues and awesome support in California. I wouldn’t sweat it or regret it. Think I’m at about 1000 miles so far.
creaks are always a problem on new bikes.. don’t think it will be pivots, this is a really good design in that respect. Check all the other usual suspects... headset, seat posts, derailleur hanger, rear axle etc.
I’ve always had to go through initial period like this on any new bike I’ve had.
