Levo Gen 2 Remote suspension lockout for 2021 Turbo Levo Comp

[rlora]

I recently purchased a 2021 Specialized Turbo Levo Comp and was wondering if I can add a remote suspension 3 modes system to it (like Scott bikes) and if so; what do I need? The bike has a Fox Float 36 Rhythm fork and a FOX Float DPS Performance rear shock.

Thanks ahead!

I never understood why this was needed, or liked, on a fork. Does anyone lock their fork out or ramp up the compression damping?

You can get remote upgrade kits for both the Fork and Shock. You'll have to dig to find the correct part numbers. But out of the box you'd have to run two lever units.

To get the Scott-like single remote behavior you might be able to use a Twinloc lever but I think you're on your own to find out if it really works.

All that being said, how new are you to e-biking? I'm surprised you want lockouts. I actually ride a Scott for my "acoustic" bike, because I do like having lockouts when I'm under my own power. But on the Levo traction is so much better with everything fully open, and more comfortable to boot. OTOH I have fully adjustable suspension, something you lose with "position"-based designs, so I understand that the stock damping might not be ideal.

Thanks for the comments; I've decided against it, too complicated and I can spend that $$ elsewere!! After all I never really use it that much on my Scott, it was just good to have it available when I needed it. I actually like the simplicity of the cockpit better on the Levo as it is.

I guess I'm confused my 2021 turbo legal expert has three different adjustments on the rear shock soft medium and lock out What am I missing??

Scott bikes have a remote lockout system that adjusts both front and rear at the same time. It's called TwinLoc

Cool I'll take a look. Thanks why and when would you want both locked out and can you do it on the fly like the brain shock on the epic?

Nevermind! Clicked on link tyou

Is there a way to have my battery power automatically adjusted and adjust to my riding xadence

 

[johnscioscia]

kind of like a auto adjust power mode . So I can set it and not worry about shifting intoo the different power mode

 

[johnscioscia]

Also I downloaded blevo onto my phone on a tip of this EMTB site. Not tried it yet, I hope it's easy. And I hope it's better than the rider control app? Does that app do the auto motor adjust thing I talked about? ?

Don't think what you want exists? Think I would prefer to control it myself in any case.

yeah the specialized epic had that remote smart brain for the rear and it automatically adjusted when needed.

simple...just sell it and buy a Bosch Gen4 motored bike...and use EMTB mode.

So it's the first time my levo needs a bit of cleaning. No mud, just dust but I'm still in the keep it sqeeky clean phase. Any tips on what I can use on addition to a rag? Tx!

Off topic, but would like to know feedbacks running the Fox X2 float for my Levo Comp. Just ordered one for July delivery and curious on set ups for person in the 200lb range and the overall feel of the shock.
Thank you

I use that shock albeit not on a Levo so my settings will be no guide for you. I really rate the shock largely because you have control over both high speed and low speed compression and rebound. I suggest you look up the factory tune of your shock to get a general idea of your starting point. Mine is a medium factory tune throughout ( compression/rebound/reservoir). I have mine set at 30% SAG . Fox provide settings for HSC/LSC HRS/LSR all based on your shock air pressure and they are a pretty good starting point. I have found I do not need to stray too far from them.

Thank you for the feedback
