I may be a little late in responding, but while going through a small spare part bag that came with my Levo it had this plastic washer in it (that looks exactly like that J washer pictured) along with an extra spare plastic spacer for the upper battery cage in case it rattles. I had no idea what the washer was for, but now I know. Thanks!

800 grams difference in frame weight I think

Thanks!
I saw that too and thought it might be it.
Then again, I thought the J washer was supposed to be 2mm thick, and the washer in the bag didn’t seem 2mm thick.

Hi All, I wanted to share some positive news regarding the Fox Float X2 that came on my bike. I noted earlier that it started making a squishy sound for 5 or 6 compressions if I haven't ridden in 24 hours. I decided to open a ticket with Fox and without question, they are sending me the 2024 Float x2. I told them the bike was 1.5 years old but they were happy to swap it anyway. No rebuild - just taking my old one and sending a new one. Awesome support.

Fox is stepping up their support for this shock, our suspension guy used to rebuild like 5 or 6 a week now we just send em back and the customer gets the updated one, took a bit longer than it should have in our opinion but a class move for fox.
There is a new color for Pro version with SRAM eagle T. Not sure if the color is nice in person.

I like it, it’s a lot better than my orange/reddish colour Pro. I’m still debating having mine painted a different colour.There is a new color for Pro version with SRAM eagle T. Not sure if the color is nice in person.

Morning All - trying to find an s4 comp carbon .. Seen this satin white sage version in stock ... has anyone seen this color in person? kind of prefer the black but this does look quite clean..
Although i did wonder if this was their more 'feminine -oriented color as the pink paired water bottle and grips might suggest..

I think the one with the pink grips in your picture is actually Oasis?
The Sage Green looks lovely in person, but isn’t available here in the base Alloy model, which is what I wanted as I had kit to transfer to it.
I ended up with the Ice Blue, which is white with a blue tinge.
I wrapped my matte frame (comp carbon) with the matte invisiframe. I would recommend matching gloss frame to gloss wrap or matte frame to matte wrap.

i do like the alloy colours.. ice blue is lovely -- the problem is I want to slowly upgrade off a carbon frame and I'm a sucker for the mastermind system..
I think the pink grip picture is the carbon one though - its at the bottom of this page: Turbo Levo Comp Carbon | Specialized.com
I wrapped my maroon expert with a layer of dirt. The cheapest protection ever
Google search and in real world pics, it looks like a flat cream color.

have sent in the x2 from the 2022 levo expert for warranty "slurp". now i have received this back ... 2024 x2 float.
have the original x2 from the levo the air chamber open, no volume spacer in it. the new are 3 in addition and there may be max. 3 pure. that means there are also in the new no volume spacer in it.

Nice - just received mine yesterday and was happy to see that it was shipped in a retail box like yours - stickers and all.

Anyone running a Super Deluxe Ultimate (air) with the regular Cascade link? I just picked up a lightly used one off Pinkbike, with the OEM tune for a SJ Evo (basically same as the Levo except lighter lockout switch force). Seems like it takes quite a lot of pressure to get 30% sag - I'm at 275 psi as a 170 lb rider. I know the regular Cascade link requires a lot more pressure/spring rate (with my coil I went up from 500 -> 575).
Edit: I must have gotten suck down or something on initial inflation. I let all the air out and restarted from 0, and now pressures line up almost exactly with what the Trailhead app says.

First, ride on my bike with its updates and couldn't have been happier!
Axs GX Detrailer - Shifts so nicely, and the micro-adjustments are great. Seeing what gear I'm in on the screen is pretty cool (changed my default screen to use this vs speed), and it is actually handy. I really like the shifter as it feels more like a Shimano shifter in how you can shift it with your index finger. Also cool the app shows you how much time you spend in each gear.
Bronze XX1 Chain - Destroyed my GX chain
AXS Dropper - Fix a 170mm slammed to the collar in my S3, and it is amazing coming from the 150mm and found the factory dropper was sticky. This post is amazing and love how easy it is to adjust the seat tilt
Ergon SM E-Mountain Sport Men Saddle - Had bought it for my BigFoot VLT but decided to try it on this bike since I was swapping posts. Felt amazing as well. Likely will keep this saddle and buy a second one for the fat bike.
Next up I'm going to get a spare battery and am going to try the shifter upgrade kit, but so far, liking the stock GX shifter. I was going to wait and go AXS transmission this winter but a local shop had both on sale for 25% off, I had just broken a chain and recently had a spill when the dropper didn't drop so it felt like a reason to upgrade

i couldn't be happier with the standard link and x2 shock. still have an ohlins coil, but the levo rides nicer with the x2.

I haven't installed my 2024 X2 yet and was considering buying the Ohlins coil. Can you share the details of why you like the X2 better? Perhaps the new X2 won't feel as rigid as the one that came on the bike and I'll like it.
The stock linkage is better suited for an air shock, it’s not very progressive. Most coils run a linear spring so IMO a coil on the stock linkage isn’t all that great. If I were running the stock linkage and a coil I’d be looking at progressive springs, Cane Creek and MRP offer progressive coil springs. If you’re adding the cascade linkage then a coil will feel way better. I could tell a huge difference when I went from the stock linkage to the cascade linkage with my setup, it’s way better with it.

New Levo Pro owner. Well actually it has been sitting in my garage for almost a month waiting for parts (AXS gears). All setup and ready to go.
Question: Shouldn’t volume spacers be included with a new bike? I received 0 volume spacers with my new bike (ordered online from Specialized). Think I need some in the rear.
