Thanks ? Could you share the outside company details that supplies the film. You clearly recommend the product, which is worth a lot as you have used it before. Thanks for you help. I have never spent so much money on a bike, so may as well protect my investment. Cheers

Official? Where did you hear this?

A guess, but it would seem sensible that the "launch" coincides with this marketing campaign which seems to be running in parallel :

Other - Whats this then?

Yes this is my understanding also. My bike arrives Monday afternoon.

Your joking right ? Do you have an SL ? My carbon comp SL with 160 lyriks and AxS is 17.4kg . Can get it even lighter if I used lighter tires .

19kg is base alloy model ..

As you are talking 22kg for new Levo the 3 new levo’s are carbon .. so the SL is still 4-5kg lighter

Hi

The weight of the SL will of course depend on the size of the frame and spec. The one I have is 19.3 Kg in XL carbon without RE, Fox 34’s but with DH tyres. Aluminium SL with Lyrik’s size XL with RE weighs 21.3kg. I believe Levo S4 S Works is around 21.3kg, S6 probably around 22kg.

True....

My XL s-works sl weighs 18.35 without RE.

Any bike weight depends on frame size and components, that’s a given. Thought I think it is pointless to keep comparing SL and levo, an SL will always be at least 3kg less than a regular turbo levo at équivalent built, just because of battery and motor. For instance, my SL comp Carbon M is 17.7 stock with Carbon handlebar and tubeless. Weighted on 3 different scales...
And weight is one thing, but do you even consider motor drag? I know, all motors are nowadays supposted to be « zero drag ». To me it is a joke, brose Bosch and shim are similar, mahle is world apart when reaching speed limit.

I heard from a local dealer that the Levo and Levo comp won't be the new bike till next year, anyone else heard that?

 

[Loamranger]

So, size for size there is roughly a 3.5/4 kg weight difference, which is not insignificant. However, the new Levo will be lighter than the FF alternatives. So the way I read it I think some may switch to the new Levo that are currently using Kenevo’s but most SL owners will be happy with their choice.

Later this year is my understanding.

There is a launch countdown clock - on the Speccy guerrilla marketing site Specialized

The new TCU looks somehow awful with this little Display inside...

Do you have a picture of the new TCU?

 

[cuaion]

OMG!! Do really hope I can order one when they get released!

 

[roccobarocco]

Picture is gone unfortunately, check FB

 

[timo_]

Does anyone have a photo of the new Levo? Gladly also by PM...

 

[Zimmerframe]

 

[Yzlvr]

?

 

[Zimmerframe]

Maybe this one ....

 

[congerball]

That photo of the new TCU didn’t last long ?

No it didn't indeed, it's a pity sharing this info isn't allowed. ?

 

[Zimmerframe]

I think the TCU Picture is widely spread around enough now that we can probably get away with sharing it ??!?! I doubt it's breaking any embargo's once it's pretty easy to find elsewhere. Maybe with some minor mods so it doesn't pop up on back searches ?

 

[DuncanDoughnuts]

I hope that TCU will be backwards compatible?

 

[Zimmerframe]

It's not allowed because of the Embargo's. It's the forum's responsibility to make sure it's not shared if they've been told to make sure it's not. We kinda go through this each time there's a new embargo'd release. There's obviously exceptions - like the TCU which is fairly widely spread now. Well, I guess

Not long now.

I've ordered 10 s-works. I plan to strip them down and turn them into Carbon Comp models because there aren't any of those yet, so that will make them super rare and cool and money is no object

The TCU 2 doesn't look to spectacular TB

I guess it's just to make sure Spesh doesn't get pissed off! Otherwise no support anymore for the Forum

I wonder if it has a photo frame option, so instead of pertinent information you can have it constantly cycling through pictures of your loved ones - like pictures of all your old bikes for instance ?
