One of my local bike shops (Ride Innerleithen) has a massively discounted ex-demo '22 Pivot Shuttle. 9.5/10 condition and absolutely baller factory/xtr build. If think it's around 5.5 and comes with warranty. I demoed it, but went with the Whyte in the end.

With 50% discount on Specialized e-bikes, Santa Cruz doing 40% off their 5010's and other manufacturers offering massive discounts on both analogue and e-bikes, does anyone think the manufacturers will start dropping prices any time soon as I can't imagine there's much appetite for buying full price bikes when these kind of discounts are out there.

Now the new Boxxer is out, where are the mega run out deals on the old one!? I want one for my Privateer!

How are you finding the a fork? I’m tempted to buy to upgrade the 35 Silver that came with my Levo. Significant improvement?

 

[Doomanic]

36 Rhythm will be a massive improvement over a RS 35 Silver.

 

[Tooks]

How are you finding the a fork? I’m tempted to buy to upgrade the 35 Silver that came with my Levo. Significant improvement?

Funnily enough, I’ve just replaced the RS Silver 35 TKs that originally came on my Levo with a set of these Merlin Fox 36, fitted to a standard 30lb enduro MTB.

Scanning the QR code on the forks, they’re listed as 2021 My Fox 36 Rhythm, so new old stock, and they also have an EMTB ready sticker on them. They have no pressure equalisation valves on the lowers, in case people are expecting any.

First impressions are largely positive, a simple to adjust fork, only rebound and Grip ‘Open to Locked’ compression adjustment.

Plush enough if you don’t go mad with the psi, and feel stiff enough. What they also highlight is how good the equally basic RS Silver 35 TKs are, but the Fox forks are around 0.5kgs lighter which is worth having.

From what I heard two companies are actually paying shops that stock their bikes to shift product

Are they really that discounted?? I mean the prices have gone up meteorically , you know those 6k bikes with SRAM NX spec maybe this is now the perfect storm of customers being skint and saying f-no , and the industry saying yeah we have away too much stuff in our warehouses (lets write it down for another tax break win) we can’t shift

I enquired about the sworks Levo sl 2 frame and got told spesh UK can’t/won’t even get them at the minute, anyone that knows otherwise can you drop me a line

SORRY to detract from the actual posting of bargains

Are you able say which companies and do you mean shift stock at cost price? I guess the bubble was bound to burst sometime. As for Levo SL frames not seen any framesets have seen them in the EU stores but not UK.

There are quite a few DVO forks on sports pursuits.com 40% off they are uk based I think

Websites that require you to sign up before they let you look at their stuff can do one.

They do have a French client side .. (signed up) ... but they don't have much in the way of VTT (Mountain bike) parts. No forks. Just chains ....

View attachment 123714 I’m struggling to think of any other sites that do this. It’s annoying but I get a few pieces from there so worth it for me.

It's a great site. I've bought loads of stuff from them. A bit like an organised sports based tk maxx.

Sport’s pursuit is legit, just how the work and have worked for a decade or so. I’ve had a bunch from them, including both my garmins.

The dvo sale isn’t amazing, just forks no shocks and discounts similar to normal mtb retailers.

How are you finding the a fork? I’m tempted to buy to upgrade the 35 Silver that came with my Levo. Significant improvement?

It's a big upgrade over the 35 Gold I had on it and I'd changed to low friction seals and better oil in the lowers.

I'm just figuring it out at the moment. Not sure if it's not quite as plush as my Pike on my old Kona Process or its the extra weight on the ebike, but I found the damper really harsh over repeated small bumps on the 35 and the Rythem 36 is much more tolerable.
