Levo Gen 2 Turbo Levo 2022

[Kave]

So, I have had my basic Levo for two years now. I guess there should be a completely new model 2022.
My whishlist:
1. More waterproof engine and the cable from battery to engine
2. More room in the rear triangle for wider tires. It's tight now and real issues mounting a mud guard
3. Even more suspension travel
4. Lighter

@jerryx2000 So what are you saying. Im too dim to work it out ? A battery and no motor ? 2-x front derailleurs? Enduro
= front-end?

 

[Eduardoramundo]

Looks like a bad photoshop and hasn’t even got a motor.

Whaddya mean? That's the new intangible crown feature. No more need for ugly plastic horns on the downtube.

I'd like a Specialized range extender, a small but effective mud guard on the rear and weight reduction by at least 3Kg.

Hopefully a range extender would be backwards compatible and not as expensive as the options available today.

Sounds like what you want is the new S-Works Levo SL mate

 

[craige robertson]

So.... The new levo.. like the enduro frame, s2,3,4 sizing, adjustable rake, same brose shite...

It's an electric motor, not an engine! Trains have engines!!

Lol trains have electric motors not engines....powered by diesel generators, just saying ?

But trains do have engineers. It’s a complex world we live in!

 

[MrSimmo]

Direct from the CEO of Specialized:

1. Refreshed geometry 160-170 fork, 160 rear end
2. New TCU IP67 rated
3. Dynamic assist mode
4. All new motor IP57 rated
5. Revamped Butcher and Ground Control tires
6. Improved smartphone connectivity

 

[MrSimmo]

Where did he say this?

He didnt, it was an outright lie ?

Although if any of it proves to be correct, you heard it here first!

 

[craige robertson]

Well... Iv heard.... Similar to enduro frame, with adjustable trail. Sizing going be S3,4,5 like kanevo. Same brose motor, And out in a few weeks...

 

[craige robertson]

Which makes it the new Kenevo more than the new Levo. But they could also use it for the next gen Levo to with different spec due to the variable Geo. This brings costs down for Spesh, One frame design for both bikes.

Think its going to be a stump jumper with a motor, Not really interested in adjusting head angle, Think they should set it to what works, Trek, merida and whyte have...
Id prefer motor reliability, im on my 5th now, they've all been changed same day no quibble, The after sales is the best iv had, but pushing that thing over mountains has cooked my sweed. Not sure i want to pay another 10k for something i know will fail over and over again. id have got a rail before now if id known specialized were keeping the brose, also concerned on the 504 errors the bosch motors are getting.

Diesel trains have engines while Electric trains have motors powered by 25,000 volts overhead wires

Lol, lets not derail this thread.

I have a 2022 model on back order with my LBS via the insurance company. When do they generally release the specs, is it when the new models are officially launched? I couldn't find anything on the interweb...

 

[brewoz40]

Updated geo for sure, maybe even smaller battery options, 350wt internal, with optional external extender would be the shit! With full power motor! This would get the weight down to the low 40lbs range. I'd buy immediately.

 

[escrs]

Its a long wait for the 2022 model.

2022 Levo is due in a couple of months and will still have the Brose motor, that's from a very reliable source but they wouldn't divulge anymore information

Yes agreed - I have been told late delivery late March or April but no detail on any updates from 2021 model (guessing minimal) with very limited stock arriving at this stage anyway.

Hi everyone! I'm new to the forum, don't have an e-bike yet but I'm planning to buy a Turbo Levo since last year.
By seeing this discussion now I've got some doubts; because for me it's quite an important investment, I would be a bit upset if I bought a new bike only to find out that a few days later new models comes out...
When do you think the new 2022 models will be available in southern Europe? I would like to have the bike before summer and the original plan was to get it around mid-March.
Do you think it will be better to wait or take the 21 model?

Thanks

I’d check with your lbs that you can get a new model before summer, I think the first batch will go very quickly, then it’s waiting on more to be made and shipped out, E bikes are like mermaids to get hold of atm.

 

[gabryp]

Unfortunately at the moment nobody looks to know anything about the 22 models, so I really don't know exactly what to do... I would also like to see the new colours for next year, cause I really liked the red version, but it's not available in my country on the 21 models

 

[James_MTB]

Under normal circumstances! 2022 would be September.

 

[Grannyjones]

Has this new one improved so much that it's going to make my Levo 2020 comp look out of date ?

Which I've barely had for 8 months

Who knows... All I will say is the geo was out of date when they launched it..
Also the 2022 levo will have the same motor as 2021

 

[Grannyjones]

These bikes are too expensive to keep having to replace regularly to stay up to date

You don't have to replace regularly "to stay upto date". You only have to replace if you want the "latest". Most recent upgrades are changes to parts which anyone could still "upgrade" if they wanted to. Or be content that the amazing bike you bought it the first place isn't any less amazing 1 day later just because there's an alternative.
