Hello there! My name is Ovidiu, I'm 21 and I love riding bikes. I currently own a 2020 Specialized Turbo Levo base model which is undergoing a major upgrading process.
The bike was perfectly fine when I bought it and probably still is, but my skills got better and better over time and I started to notice the downsides of the cheaper parts fitted to this bike. Since I have another "acoustic" enduro bike, the Spesh is used mainly for long adventures out in the mountains or riding trails with no lift access. I want to replace parts like brakes, fork, bars, saddle and wheels, but my big problem and the real reason I came to this forum is the rear shock. I want to replace the stock RS Deluxe Select with a RS Super Deluxe Ultimate, but:
Thanks in advance and I'll kindly take any other advice of yours!

I want to replace the stock RS Deluxe Select with a RS Super Deluxe Ultimate, but:
- Does a 210x55 fit? Does it increase the rear travel? (bike is size M and comes stock with 210x52.5)
- Since the stock shock has an RX trail tune on it, will fitting the new shock with no custom tune on it negatively affect performance?
Thanks in advance and I'll kindly take any other advice of yours!
