I rode the 2019 Focus for a day in the summer and the 2020 version, with longer geometry and the new Bosch motor looks perfect on paper. Unfortunately I can only see it on paper as they are delayed to UK dealers, probably another month.
Had a test today on the new Levo Comp, in stock in my size and colour choice at local shop. Couldn’t fault it really, though I do prefer shimano over Sram, both gearing and brakes.
So the crux, apart from my lack of patience, may be the potential issues around the Spesh motor and battery failures. Any ideas on whether they may have improved reliability ? I need to weigh that up with the Bosch motor which is a little lighter though 625 battery vs the Spesh at 700. Again the new Bosch is unproven on longer term reliability too....
