Levo Gen 4 Specialized Gen 4 Levo - Official Thread

Disconnect of Transmission Rear Derailleur from internal battery:
Does anyone know proper steps how to disconnect the battery connected rear derailleur/ where is it connected in the frame to internal Levo battery (... so one can install cable actuated R.D.)
The mech is wired to the display. The wire is fixed and runs down to the motor/main pivot area where the mech cable attaches.

Courious also if it comes w the Sram ASX Derailleur wire pre-installed/routed ? I assume it comes w/ the carbon crankset and chainring?
Looks like it there

Thank you.
Weight gap seems huge changing only this. For sure tyres are impacting a lot.
 
Does anyone know how to make the battery % in the display bigger?

It is tiny and is the only number I need.

It’s not an option in the app.

I can agree, it’s even not the one on the Levo SL.
The light weight Spec build is for trail use. If you go adding the piggyback you might as well put the Mavens back on because you are going to need to stop from those long descents.


When it comes to gravity-oriented full-suspension bikes, a shock’s reservoir isn’t just bling for show-offs. This compact cylinder significantly elevates your trail performance by ensuring more consistent shock absorption, even under prolonged stress. However, before you break the piggy bank, remember: not every rider needs the ultimate setup. For light trail work or the efficiency-focused cross-country (XC) riders, shocks without a reservoir can still perform top-notch. No matter where you stand on your MTB journey, your riding style, the terrain, and the travel are key to finding the ideal shock component. Weigh your options, test various setups if possible, and then make an informed choice – striking the ultimate balance on the trails without draining your wallet.

If I want to ride XC, I buy XC bike.

For such a capable bike I would not put a shock like that. Because if I buy a 160/150, it means I can push it hard enough to have the needs of a shock that can sustain a long ride on a more complicated terrain.

Oh give over, that build is still fine 90% of the riding the vast majority of people do. You would swear they put a SID, xc tires and 2 pot brakes on the thing the way you are going on. That shock was developed for the Stumpjumper 15, it's plenty capable. You could put the reservoir version on and still have a c.20kg bike.
 
Has anyone put a 2.6 tyre on the front and back yet ?

Seems very tight and concerned when it gets muddy in the uk. Had a intense tracer 275 and it was like this and got ruined

Marvelous, you are so helpful. 🤣
I saw but I wanted to know the full spec.

well here it is, I wonder how did they achieve that weight?
I see they changed fork, shock, dropper, tires, brakes and smaller rotors. Everything else looks similar to s-works spec.
S-works weight is 23.68 according to spesh website, with 600wh battery it would be 22.68.

Is that possible to drop 3 kg just by those components? Or there is something I dont see?

My approximate counting is
tires - 500g
fork - 300g
shock - 200g
dropper - 300g
brakes with rotors - 500g
which is 1.8kg, how did they managed to drop another 1.2kg ?

Since this is a marketing picture, maybe they installed a carbon post and/or let the front tire slightly touch the ground to get the desired weight under 20 kgs

Helium instead of Co2 in tires...:geek:
 
I guess the negative feedback about weight is being heard, unfortunately you still can’t change the terrible look of that frame.
I have to agree… that bulky frame is quite ugly 😖

Seat and grips look different. Possibly some TI hardware?

We need them to publish a story on it.
