Sorry - had to remove it ?
Damn ! It was great video ! Marco and in turn, Specialized, came across as very open, honest and forward thinking.
Was it because @TheBikePilot was looking too buff ?

I understand but noooo! Any idea when/if you’ll get the embargo lifted Rob?

Hey Specialized!!!! Stop with this kind of behaviour. It's get annoying. If you agree to an interview with your employees then let it roll or don't do it. Even if Marco was to explorative - who cares? It's what we as fan want - but what we don't appreciate is to say Yes and then No.
It's not professional and does look very strange and extremely controlled and manipulated - you know, there is also one in your country a quite similar who acts similar - don't be fool and follow....its should not your style.
Usually I'm a fan since you've started with Levo of your brand... be careful that you keep me.

There isnt one
They said they were developing the model, but didn't imply what that mean't - ie , just different suspension or other versions.
I suspect some of the information revealed wasn't due to be revealed at this point, so it's been pulled for that reason, not because of their openness, so it will no doubt either be edited and re-released or released again soon.
There's quite a few builds in here which might be what you're after ?
Levo SL Gen 1 - Levo SL Custom Builds
Haven’t seen a thread dedicated to custom builds. I’m looking to try a few different builds, 160mm fork, maybe mullet build. But in the mean time if anyone had already done some customization let’s see them and hear your thoughts.

He spilt the beans on the 2021 Levo which is why the vid has been pulled
and...
If that was the reason it was embargo'd then there's a good chance any posts might be deleted also.
He did say it would have the same motor and the same 500 and 700 batteries but would have some component changes and different colours.

Interestingly, they did say that with some new cells presently in development, then possibly in 2 years with the 5.6 cells, they would be able to do an 800wh battery with the same physical dimensions.
They also said that they'd like to maintain motor format compatibility with advances, so that if and when they make changes to the mahle motor for instance, it would be backwards compatible with legacy frames. Until such a point that this wasn't possible due to, for instance, a reduction in size which would require moving onto a new design.

I'll bet it was pulled because of the frame,motor and battery sales comment...no way will specialized do that

I don’t think it’ll be back. Sorry :-(
oh well. Might be nice with an edit. Or another interview that can be shared.
I FEEL CHEATED!
Only the cool kids got to watch it...

Hmm to whoever asked Rob to pull the video:I FEEL CHEATED!

Australian informal rootin' tootin' - Kenevo is definitely that.

I tuned in and very interesting to watch. "Some nice new colours for 2021".....never mind colours, get the reliability of the moter/battery sorted first!
Handing my Levo Expert back (as i had to with the Kenevo) and reverting to an Enduro. Levo was a great bike to ride...when it had power

Specialized maybe wasnt to happy about the content. I also could watch only a part of the video, but as soon that I heard the specs are going to be better and that they they are going to announce the new levo really soon, I canceled my reservation for the 2020 Levo at my dealer. If everyone does that a couple of dealers wouldnt be happy, so good think to not release the video.

When watching it there were several comments he made that really made me wonder if this was going to be left up.
To be fair he was very open and frank but if i owned specialized i would have been concerned with some of the things he said.

Can you give an example?
