    Levo Gen 3 Official Specialized Gen 3 2022 Levo Megathread!

    Ah, yes, I forgot about those. I have the tool to pull those so easy enough to do. Thanks

    Levo Gen 3 Official Specialized Gen 3 2022 Levo Megathread!

    The RS bushings are not the same as what I will need for the Fox shock, maybe other people had different bushings (see second photo). The lower eye (one connected to the wishbone) of the stock RS shock has two silver metal bushings that protrude from eye like thin flat washers (probably 1mm...

    Levo Gen 3 Official Specialized Gen 3 2022 Levo Megathread!

    Thanks, I have the tools, was curious if the RS bushings would fit or not. Sounds like they do so I'll put the bike up in the stand and give it a try

    Levo Gen 3 Official Specialized Gen 3 2022 Levo Megathread!

    For anyone who has put a Float X2 onto their Turbo Levo, were you able to just use a puller to remove the Rockshox mounting hardware (i think it's 6x20mm if not mistaken)? If not, what did you buy? I usually pull the existing shock and measure but was hoping to short circuit that by asking here

    Levo Gen 3 Official Specialized Gen 3 2022 Levo Megathread!

    Hey, what's it like replacing the rear brake, specifically pulling a new line? My Orbea Rise required me to drop the battery and motor, wondering if the Levo Carbon is a similar endeavor, in which case I might just upgrade within brand as opposed to going to "Shiguras"

    Can you send me a link to more info on this? I have a 2022 version of this shock on my Orbea Rise, bought the shock new about 12 months ago, so that one is definitely in range.

    I bought my son a '23 Levo Carbon base in S4 and am looking at upgrading the rear shock. Found a great deal on a Fox Float X2 Factory. Are there any clearance issues with this shock on this size frame.

    Rise with a 150mm Manitou Mezzer

    I took it out yesterday and now it rides more like my Enduro, which is what I was going for. It would take raising the front a lot more to get the front wheel to come off the ground on steep climbs. In current state, like an Enduro bike, it tends to want to wander a bit on steep climbs but it's...

    Rise with a 150mm Manitou Mezzer

    I bought an XL for this very reason. Orbea XL is really a taller size L in any other manufacturer. I am pretty happy with the reach of the frame for me. And so far, no really adverse issues for climbing after moving to 150mm. Going out today on a couple of trails that have sections that are...

    Rise with a 150mm Manitou Mezzer

    Ah yes, that bottom cup ;-) you are right, it needs to be in the measurements. It more or less winds up that makes the bar height roughly net out to zero increase between before and after the addition of the 9point5 with the same 150mm fork travel in both cases. I may give it a try putting it...

    Levo Gen 3 Specialized offering FREE 700w battery with Base Carbon Levo, they HONORED for me!!!

    I picked up one of these deals too, also SoCal based. I bought it for my son who is 12 and a really good analog enduro rider but we want ebikes for Palm Canyon. The deal I wound up with was $3500 including tax, with the extra 700w battery. I'm still waiting for the shop to assemble it...

    Rise with a 150mm Manitou Mezzer

    I finally added the 9point5 angle set to slacken the Rise by 1.5 degrees. I have not taken it on a trail yet, but on road rides around the neighborhood I can tell that by slackening it, I have dropped the BB a bit and now can easily add 10mm (maybe 20mm) to the Mezzer fork which will probably...

    Orbea Rise - have I missed a display option?

    I have a Rise H30, can someone help me understand what a "compatible Garmin device" would be? Is there a listing of these or some feature set I should look for? I was thinking of adding GPS/map functionality on the handlebars, so I guess I would prefer to get something compatible with the H30.
