Specialized UK's open day today

[escrs]

Anyone else here went today?

Was a good day, nice to see all the various Turbo bikes, free pizza for lunch plus unlimited tea, coffee, soft drinks and some beer at the end!!!

Q&A session was good, the first question asked was the most important one for me

Question "Will there be frame, motor and battery only options in the future"

The answer was maybe, if there is demand and the price is right it could be a possibility, which is a good sign

Got to see and try out the new Levo SL, first impressions were the weight is good, a little test ride around the display floor minus some pedals (used my feet on the crank arms to pedal) motor felt nice in Turbo, no big kick but felt smooth, shame we couldnt of had some demo ones in the car park

All in a great day, big thanks to Rob and Specialized UK for organising the event

I was there, The microphone hog got to speak to Spesh brass after and had the answer given to me about out of warranty motors. If you are out of warranty and get a new motor, through rider care scheme or not, IT WILL come with a new 2 tear warranty if you get a motor within warranty original warranty still applies

Test bike with no pedals obviously didn't want any one to try it ,did it have a battery and seat.????

Yup.

Impressed with the heft weight of the SL. Would love a good go on 1.

Not an N+1 for me, an N-1 as I'd roll my Levo and bio trail bike into a single bike.

I suspect the SL would suit people who are lighter, fitter and who like to work on a ride. if those don't apply probably the full gas Levo is better.

Have we got the message now that Spesh are targeting the motorised bicycle market big time? They want to own it.

 

[Rob Rides EMTB]

Thanks for coming along guys, great to meet a lot of you ?

Major takeaway of the day: Rob's very tall, most people need not worry when he finds a bike short in the TT.

No good for my weight then. Just can't wait to see whats on offer 3 years from now , waterproof and reliability. Ive had 1400 miles of wet riding since July. All in all only a new power cable few issues restarting after washing my fault i would think so hopefully im not jinxing it.

Was great fun, hopefully got a Demo day booked on the SL to see if it fits my needs, but its looking great, now to decide alloy or carbon, the alloy really was light tbh really surprised me.
