Kids out of the house, downsized to a condo, old but not quite dead yet looking to get into EMTB to save my legs! 
Coming off a specalized expert road bike and a Specalized Expert StumpJumper. Still have both with clip ināsā¦
Paralysis by analysis here looking to make the plunge. Looking at Trek Rail and Specalized Levo ā¦ Iāve seen āoneā rail, 2021 late model 9.7, fugly black and yellow in my size XL reduced to $5k. Almost zero other Rails available around here. Looked at the Levo in an Expert carbon config thatās a 21 as well but itās more $ā¦. Consultive sales person suggested the Levo SL but Iām concerned about the smaller battery. In reality, Iāll ride some hills, single and double track, some āscenic parksā, and some bike paths. Iām not likely to do any big 2000 ft climbs (Iām so old I fart dust), so I am really torn on what avenue to go.
Ps- this is the bike Iām looking at:

Happy trails yāall.
