Hello to all !
Brand spanking new here so firing off my first post ! I managed to place a order back in February for a 2021 levo Comp in oak green .
Im getting pretty impatient as it’s still not arrived but I’m guessing this is the norm these days .
This is a huge purchase for me , as is most I presume and hope I won’t be disappointed .
I’m calling this a mid life purchase as opposed to crisis , (married , child , sore knees from abuse in younger years ) and I’m really looking forward to getting out there more without the same effort as my trusty EPIC still delivers .
A quick question : how do you fellow owners feel about the 32km cut off ..? I’m sure I’ll be fine with it , especially on the flats , I’m not a downhill kinda guy more trail tamed .
Any thoughts on the bike and or how this machine performs would be great to read and add to my anticipation .!
Thanks all .

im UK so have the 25kph limit and its horrible. 32kph is way more like it
Ouch ...25kph seems like a blanket speed limit meant mostly to limit those on city streets?
Which model/ year of levo do you own/ have experience with ? Are you happy with the unit or had any major issues ?
Thanks

ive had 2 levos, a 2019 carbon comp and currently a 2020 comp, loved em both. had loads of problems with the first one but mostly 'normal' problems like bearing failures after a month etc, no real issues with the motor etc.
the current bike is excellent, ive really used it hard and its great, I live in Wales as well which is renown for being very, very wet and I ride all year round.. stay on top of maintenance and all good

2021 Levo comp front light cable; is there room to get cable to the front without dropping motor?
How about rear light cable for Lupine C14? Mission impossible?

Don't know about the rear, but I fitted a front light without dropping the motor, it's a Comp Carbon :)

Welcome!

In summary - You'll love it!

I have a 2020 Levo and after approx 2400 miles, I love it as much as I did when I first got it. I ride mine way more than I rode my non-emtbs. It does long trail riding, Enduro style events, Downhill/Gravity stuff all day long (and saves $ on uplift passes at bike parks). I've ridden several 40+ mile and >4500ft climbing loops in trail mode and always come back with >20% battery (700wh).

If its helpful - the things which weren't amazing I've changed:
- Replaced SRAM Code R brakes with Magura MT5's (220mm/203mm rotors)
- Switched air shaft in Fox 36 Fork from 150mm to 160mm
- Got rid of the Specialized tyres for Michelin Wild Enduros 2.4
- Replaced chainring with a Hope 36T

The speed cut off is an interesting one and will attract quite a few different responses from people on here. My take is, as long as you're happy to void the warranty and whatever laws you have in your country around this - it totally transforms the bike from good to amazing. For me, I plan to derestrict the day the warranty expires!

Tyres are actually not bad at all, was very slippery this morning. Summer keeps waiting...
I think that as tyres get some kilometres and surface brokes in they might be pretty good. Gonna give them a chance.(y)
