What a coincidence. I have a Levo with a Zeb, X2 & Cascade link and now own a HSL as well (GX-AXS trim).
1) 4000' climbing in River might be possible. I picked up my HSL late last season so only got a few rides in. My weight is similar to you ~175lbs, and my longest ride in 6C temp was: 25.15km...
Here's stats from my biggest ride so far, 84% battery used, and I'm ~170lbs. For comparison, the same ride on my Levo with a 700Wh battery consumed 60% of the battery riding mostly in trail mode (average rider power 67W)
I have the carbon reserve rims on my Levo and now the AL reserve rims on the Heckler. I originally got the Reserve 27 for my 2016 Bronson. After a few years a hairline crack appeared and SC replaced that with a Reserve 30 which I run on my Levo. Just earlier this fall, I cracked that rim on a...
I have the SL GXS AXS and so far don't feel the need to upgrade anything. I'm 75kg and do mostly all-mountain riding. I also own a 2020 Levo with a Zeb fork, X2 shock with a cascade link. My reasons for getting the SL is I want a light weight playful emtb to contrast against the Levo and the...

The OTA update doesn't work for me. I have a 2019 Levo Expert. I have installed Mission Control App 2.4.3 Build 75 on my Apple phone. I've tried logging out/in, as well as deleting and reinstalling the app. When I open up the Diagnose>Device Updates screen I see this.
My TCU was replaced...
So after 6 weeks I have my Levo back with a brand new 2021 Expert frame (sage/forest green with black rear triangle). The frame swap was done by the LBS and since this was their first time it took a bit longer (I believe I am their first Turbo Levo customer). I have to admit this colour scheme...
The reserve wheels came from my SC Bronson and I was running minion DHF 2.5" on the front and DHR II 2.3" on the rear. It's quite likely running 2.8s will help raise the BB. However, part of the agility of running the 27.5s in the rear is the smaller diameter. If you watch Cam's video, he...
I've tried the stock 29s, then with SC reserve 27.5s and mullet and the mullet is by far my favorite for all the reasons Cam mentions. I also upgraded the spring in my fork from 150 to 160mm which helps by both slackening the head angle and raising the BB. The Levo is most playful with the...
I've running my Turbo Levo (2019) in a mullet config and since I have a 27.5x2.6 rear tire (27mm rim) I went with the cushcore pro. Even with the 2.6 width tire the fit is very snug.
*UPDATE*. I'll be getting a new 2021 Expert frame. I guess they couldn't remove the sheared bolt. That's a shame as I prefer the color scheme of the 2019.
Lucky you! I sheared the upper shock bolt on 2019 Levo Expert August 14th. Returned bike to LBS who then shipped it to Specialized in Montreal. Bike has been with Spesh since then. LBS told me last week the techs are Spesh were waiting on some tools to remove the sheared bolt. 4 weeks and...
LBS called back and they are sending the bike to Specialized to extract the sheared bolt. Hopefully, they'll be able to remove it and I can get the bike back in a week or so.
Yes. I have Park torque wrenches and always follow the manufacturers torque specifications. This is especially important with carbon frames. IMO, this is a defect with the bolt itself. I've been riding full suspension mtn bikes for almost 20 years and never have I had this happen to me on...
