Levo SL Gen 1 What fork are you replacing the Fox 34 with?

[motoadve]

Looking to buy an SL, dont want the Fox 34, want to replace the fork before riding the bike , so I can sell it new.
Terrain is steep roots, rocks, mud,double black descends.
I have Turbo Levo with a Pike, with Push coil conversion and Push HC 97 compression damper (really amazing fork)
Also a Cannondale Jeckyll with a Fox 36 and Push coil conversion, also awesome fork.(The SL is replacing this bike mostly)

I was looking to buy a 2020 Fox 36 Grip 2 fork, but in 150mm travel, I could not find it in 41mm offset.
Looking into a Pike Ultimate, or just the Fox 36 with 41mm offset ,will it make a big difference to 51mm offset which is what I was looking for?
I like to climb techy trails so not want to change geometry getting a 160mm Fox

What forks have you replaced the Fox 34 with?

Lyric ultimate. my fav fork to date, much prefer it the fox 36.

Is there any point in me trying to convince you to try the SL with the 34 first?

How is the 34? in what kind of terrain you ride?
I have never used a Fox 34, one of the reasons I want to upgrade is I like to convert to spring, and Push does not make a spring for a 34.

I would try it first. Even if you sell that 34 as “new” the steer tube has already been cut. Hard to sell as new once it’s cut

Lyric Ultimate 160mm / 51mm for me. A huge upgrade over the Fox34 IMO - much smoother and plusher.

Pretty sure you can get a Lyric Ultimate in 150mm?
