I watched the first 30 minutes or so last night... question for anyone who watched more: was there any talk of any updates/changes to the SL?

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.

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.

I just want to know when the turbo enduro SL will come out. Not that I really need the extra travel but the enduro is just the bomb.
There's quite a few builds in here which might be what you're after ?

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 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?
