On the fence?

[lamented]

Having trouble pulling the trigger. Have the cash all set aside but Im a bit torn in which direction I should go.

Haven't found any deals near me (Philadelphia, USA) so most of the bikes are full retail. None of the shops near me stock Levo's so they will all have to order. Want to buy from a shop nearby so I can have a good relationship should I run into issues with the bike.

Can't decide between the following....

1. 2020 Levo 500wh (5k)
2. 2020 Comp 700wh (6k)
3. 2019 Carbon Comp 500wh (6750ish?)

I'm guessing most of my rides will be 2-3 hours and I am coming from a Fuze 29er and this would also be my first full suspension bike.

Thoughts? Thanks.

I ended up going with #2, just 2 days ago For the price difference, I think the Comp is a much better deal than the base model.

Talk to your dealer, you'd be surprised at the discount you might be able to get. My LBS has no 2020 Levos in stock...they sell out before they hit the floor. Yet, he was able to give me a great deal on one. Mine will be arriving in the next 3 days!

It’s a popular bike, with great reviews, they seemingly shift well with much effort. Id go option 2, or again I did, the 700 battery is worthwhile, & though the carbon maybe a nice option aesthetically, it’ll make little difference in the ride.

I prefer carbon bikes myself. But you can get the comp, and sell the 700wh battery for a fair bit and swap to a 500wh, if your rides are only 2-3hours. i did that, its a 700grm saving

I'd go for 1 or 2, depending on how much battery you really need. if you're light and riding rolling hills then 500wh would be good for 2-3 hours, but if you're heavy like me (275lbs) and climbing 2-3000 ft per ride, a 700wh would be worth the extra. I've got the 19 Comp and will be getting a 700wh battery soon now that I'm fit enough to nearly empty a 500wh
