How do people feel about the pro version? The price premium is pretty steep, is it actually worth it?

Edit: I think the biggest item in that premium is the carbon wheels. Those can be pretty expensive.

Agreed. I would prefer to get the base model and upgrade the parts I want to upgrade. Then again, I would also want the smaller battery as I would not want to carry around weight I would never use. All this talk about how far and fast it goes but not not much chatter about how it performs. :unsure:

This link from earlier in the thread talks about the bike: Amflow PL Carbon Review - emtb-test.com

TLDR: It's a Levo.

I have for two years now Fuel EXe. Had Levo SL gen2 for two weeks one month ago. Sorry, for me there is nothing to compare. Amflow is more composed in terrain then Exe (both with coil shock). More composed then Levo Sl, but Levo was on air shock. All of them are mullets. And yes, motor on Levo sounds like cheap coffemachine… I have no complains how Amflow rides, but have just 250km on it, mostly technical trails.

I hear you. Everything I have found so far talks mostly about how impressive the motor is but if its really just a Levo SL for heavy people that want to ride up fire roads at max speed, I am not sure how popular it will be around here.
It's not really a levo SL, because the defining characteristic of that bike is the minimal power.

It's like the best parts of a turbo levo (but better) with the best parts of a levo SL. It's definitely going to be popular.

IMO there is nothing revolutionary with the Amflow weight:

For comparison as already pointed out 2 full carbon frame bikes with only 0.9 kg difference:

The Amflow Base: 21,2 kg
(36 Fork, small X No pigiback shock, non removable battery, alloy wheels, weak exo front/trail exo+ rear tires)

Turbo Levo Pro: 22,1 kg
(38 fork, big X2 pigiback shock, removable battery, carbon wheels, trail rated front and rear tire )

And 6.5 vs 11k EUR :))) and much more, waste of time to count it here...

Well... other than the Amflow looking very similar to a Levo SL with a powerful motor, I would say the defining feature of the Levo SL is its weight, trail handling ability and the Specialized warranty. No doubt the Amflow will become popular in time but they will need to get the supply issues resolved and their inevitable warranty centers up and running before they become popular in Canada and the US. You may be able to GET a bike but when it breaks, repairing it yourself or shipping it back to China will be frustrating.

I just spoke with an Amflow rep and he informed me that if you purchase their bike from any third party and have it shipped to the U.S. it would void the warranty.

New product vs old, old one now in biiig sale
As I wrote, waste of time...
Don't know what's your issue, my original post was about weight and you had the need to get it further onto the price, I gave you a fair comparison on the price, and no that's not ok...If you want to talk about something, make your own post about it, not jumping into someone else's and putting them down ...and yes u said it, some things are a just waste of time...peace out.

amflow pro 20.4kg with 800Wh battery and 105Nm motor

Turbo Levo pro: 22.1kg with a small 700Wh battery and weak 90nm motor

It all depends on your perspective :ROFLMAO:

The non removable battery drops the weight considerably because all parts can be constructed more lightweight and many parts aren't needed. So comparing two bikes you always have to take that into the equation. It also depends how the battery is removed. Turning the motor and letting it slide down like in the Levo is the lightes option that will also lead to lower center of gravity. But its not visually pleasant. Clipping it into the downtube is probably the heaviest option.

My Alibaba link is getting my PL Carbon Large 800wh next week and shipping it to Los angeles via boat, hoping to get it by December. Said F it and rolling the dice. Price was $10,450 flat USD. Paid via AMEX
You might have seen my recent post, but have you found a way to maintain the warranty on the bike when shipped to the U.S.? I spoke with a representative from Amflow and he informed me that if the bike is delivered by a third party to the U.S. it will void the warranty. I have been communicating with a couple Alibaba suppliers and wanted to acquire the bike in this procedure as well but I would rather not own one without a warranty.
