Today I took a ride on my gen. 3 and thought: it's going to be very, very difficult to make something truly much better than this…

I met back with the specialized guys again today. The bikes are all back from Madeira and are been made ready to ship to Spain for the dealer event. Then the bikes come back to the Netherlands and then these go out to the dealers, also initial stock goes out(that’s the logistics part that we’re working with them on) I think the April release date is purely built around the need to get the bikes out there.

In other news I didn’t wait, I pulled the trigger last week on this baby, this was already the most I’ve spent on anything other than a car or a house and I just didn’t want to buy an s-works. Plus I really prefer the way the battery is fitted on the old levo and the Vala.

So you’ve seen the new Levo and still gone a different route.

That’s ominous.

 

[Just gan]

Telling a few folk they are getting the first delivery beginning to wonder if this is a red herring yet again.

 

[Zimmerframe]

red herring yet again.

I think the other Steve Sordy thread is for expressions ?

What is setup for the new specialized levo ?

 

[Marshall Willanholly]

Told us f all really. Could he of told us more , I doubt it

I think he could have, based on his visits to the Specialized HQ:

I don’t want to give to much away as the guys at Spec were really good and it was so nice of them to let me take a really good look at the new bike.

Don't know except it is very good. Trust Specialized you know they are

 

[Fabim]

840 Watt ?

 

[irie]

I really do wish all these miracle game changing Specialized bikes break cover sooner rather than later so that the rest of the non fanboi world will be spared more of this relentless speculation. And breath.

Are we there yet? Just asking.

If you are actually in the loop you can't really tell anything you know . Well not publicly.

Sono curioso di sapere da quanto tempo ce l'hai, quanti chilometri hai percorso e quali problemi hai avuto .

I have a comp carbon gen. 3 on which I mounted a Fox 38 factory, a shimano xt transmission, magura m7, renthal carbon bar and two dt swiss wheels for two years and two months, I have done about 6000 km. and replaced two engines because they were too noisy (in the space of a week). No other problems, m. Size s5 for 186 cm. of height.

He literally said why he’s purchased the Santa Cruz in his post?

I don’t think we should read anything more into it than that.

Same, bought a Comp alloy in June last year, have put 1000 miles on it gone through 3 chains and 1 cassette. Have upgraded my wheels to HD Roval 240, One up bars, Burgtec Stem (taken off the old bike) Zeb fork, vivid coil shock, axs and hope cranks. It rides awesome hopefully for many years

 

[Just gan]

Not long now anyway but it's been a long wait. Hopefully it's more reliable than what a lot of people have had these past few years.

It was probably the side loading battery that did it that alone pushed me away

 

[Georgedukesa]

If it’s anything like this then for me personally I really don’t mind it

 

[Ribinrobin]

uh oh what they done with the battery

 

[Georgedukesa]

uh oh what they done with the battery

Check the video above side mounted battery

 

[claho]

840w with a fast charging unit 0-80% in 40 mins for the first few bikes released then later on a range extender instead of the fast charger

You mean Wh…

Yeah, I wouldn't buy side loading battery bike either, they are all aesthetically ugly, IMO

I thought the Super Deluxe coil was not approved for the Levo ?

 

[RichMorr]

I thought the Super Deluxe coil was not approved for the Levo ?

I checked it out with specialized and rockshox the My23 super deluxe and its replacement which is what I have the My25 Vivid coil is approved for the Levo but not kenevo unless the super deluxe has a steel shaft.

Maybe need to put a thin neoprene wrap around a side battery to hide it . But you get used to most things I suppose. Are there many bikes with side batteries.
