Levo comp carbon 2023

I've purchased a new levo comp carbon recently but didn't fully read the spec so was surprised when it came with a fox silver fork and pretty poor rear shock. I've not ridden the bike yet and can send it back. My question is, should I upgrade the forks and rear shock or replace it with something else say haibike nduro which is the same price point at tredz? I tend to ride mainly downhill and wanted the ebike to do long rides around the UK hills/mountains.

I did look at the kenovo but didn't want a full on enduro, but I don't want things to get sketchy if I decide hit a few drops or downhills. I noticed the higher spec levo has fox 36 or 38s.

In my opinion it is only a worthwhile buy if you really only want the carbon frame and already have some decent kit to upgrade fork, shock, derailleur, cassette and brakes. The Levo Comp 2022 is a far better deal.

Thanks for the advice I've just looked at the comp 2022 and the components are much better. I do have a lyrik 160mm I could use on the front, but I'd have to upgrade the rest.

So I couldn't help myself and rode the levo today. It felt awful at first but once I adjusted the suspension a few times it was pretty nice. The shocks can take a good hit but that plush feeling I'm used to from my enduro obviously isn't there. First impressions though are good. Tried it on a few of the tamer black runs and it was fine.
