Fitness bike ?? Or stick with the lightweight Levo sl

[chrismechmaster]

Evening everyone

Just look for opinions please , possibly people in the same situation

So I have a Levo sl gen 2 absolutely love it and ride it all the time

After a bif of a health kick doctors orders I’ve lost so weight and generally got much fitter regularly doing 30 - 40 miles fireroad rides etc

I kinda want to do more “xc “ / road riding

Do you think it’s worth getting a second set of wheels with road orientated tyres to make the Levo sl more road efficient??

Or will it never be a road efficient fitness machine and am I better off getting a cheaper analog road bike

Would valve people opinions can the Levo sl be made more efficient and good enough for fitness / road riding
Or so I leave it as specialised intended and get a analog Road Bike

Many thanks

I wouldn't bother. A decent set of wheels and chain rings will cost as much as a basic or second hand road/commuter bike. The drive train also won't like swapping.
