Not sure if anyone here will know the answer to this but --- will a battery from a Vado SL fit/function in a Levo SL? I ask because I'm traveling to the east coast from the PNW and my buddy has a Vado SL battery that I can use in my Levo SL ... if it fits/functions. If I know ahead of time that...

Yeah, I love the Mezzer! I'm still learning about it and tweaking it. I just need a bit more experimenting and bracketing on a ride and I think I'll get it tuned just right for me. BTW, were you the person who compiled that Mezzer setup spreadsheet? It's pretty handy! And yeah, maybe in the...

The current spring on my Jade X is 500lb --- it's what was on the shock as a take-off from a Ripmo. As I mentioned, it feels good on the Mid setting ... but maybe too soft on the fully open, so I think I'm missing out on it's full potential. This is my first coil shock so my assessments are...

Yesterday I rode the rougher trails with the shock in the Mid position. I think the spring is actually a bit too light for my weight, so keeping it in the Mid setting firmed it up nicely for me. I'll experiment some more but will likely go to a stiffer spring soon. I'm interested in trying the...

Thanks to some suggestions in this forum, I finally have (some) of my upgrades completed. I swapped out the stock Spesh bars for some PNW. Got rid of the Fox 34 and replaced it with a Manitou Mezzer Pro 160mm and miraculously found a brand new DVO Jade X coil with spring for $300 (!) which...

Thanks for posting this! Looks like fun, and so much different than what I'm riding in the PNW these days. I'd say similar in terms of jumps and drops ... but everything here is soggy, green and rooty. And I even got first-tracks down a snow-covered DH trail last week. Super fun. I just put on a...

Ha! I actually watched that video just before I posted my question. It's part of what has me thinking more seriously about a coil --- if I get a coil I just KNOW I'll be able to ride anything Remy rides :) In that video he's riding a bit more of a park bike that seems to have had the coil...

Apologies if this has already been covered in the previous 104(!) pages of this thread ... but can anyone tell me if they've been particularly happy with a specific brand/model/size of coil shock on their Levo SL? I've been browsing the DVO, Cane Creek and Storia coils but not sure which way to...

I don't think an oval chainring is optimal for the Levo SL. Unlike on a regular bike, on the SL the crank is not aligned with a fixed point on the chainring. For example if you backpedal on the SL, the cranks move but the chainring/chain does not. So your pedaling would not be in the preferred...

Thanks for your report! I'm generally pretty oblivious to most of my equipment as I'm just focusing on riding and having fun. But I've done some awful things to the Fox 34 and it's starting to feel like an abusive relationship. I'm gonna try to be a better person from here on out. I'm gonna go...

Thank you for this (and to the others who responded)! This is just the sort of feedback/info I was hoping to get. I weigh about 205 before I put on my gear/pads, so a burlier fork is in order, especially given the rough and steep trails I like to ride. A few hundred extra grams don't matter too...

I hope you'll report back how it rides with the Fox 38 vs your normal 36. I'm trying to decide between the 160mm Fox 36 and the 160mm Zeb ... but perhaps I should consider the Fox 38. And if anyone else has any thoughts on the matter, please let me know. For reference, I like to ride to ride the...

@avocadough - FWIW, I read somewhere that you can remove the remote from the bars without ill-effects. I think you can remove the TCU from the top tube with a T10 Torx and unplug/remove the remote cable. However, I just took my first trail ride on my new Levo SL and found it to be REALLY...
