there is one german made motor that out clim s the brose and that is the Sach/BMZ rs. it has 112 Nm at low cadence, as low as 4o to 60 rpm's . i'm close to80 years old and can beat my 45 year old friend on his bosch cx on any hill .

Love mine! Trick with the dropper post cable is to pull the casing leaving the inner wire still in. Then run the new casing over the old inner cable. Once that’s in pull the old inner cable out and run the new one through the new casing 👍 Although I’ve eliminated all of that now by replacing with a reverb axs(also running axs derailleur as trying to go as wireless as possible in the cockpit) Still need to do my brakes and shox though so thanks for the tips on the V and E4’s 👍

Spent just shy of a half hour rethreading dropper cable. Didn’t need to drop motor at least.

How to understand it's a Gen2 or Gen 3 bike if it's turbo left alloy 23 years 2.2 engine

1 year review but you changed everything on it. So practically it's not a 1 year review really.

[Photoshopuzr]

Good information, bolt check once a week. ill keep that in mind.

Nice Video, how much psi are you running on your fork?

[stephendenagy]

I agree! I love my 2029 Turbo Levo Comp. Got thousands of KM on it! Upgraded to Purple Hayes brakes, wider wheels (more stability). I agree with the cabling, so I went wireless AXS drivetrain and dropper. But all in all it is fun and bomber!

Ive been riding mine for about 6 months and i absolutely love it. i have been riding mountain bikes for over 30 years, and it jave had this much fun on a bike, in a very long time.
Usually i would ride my DH bike at bike parks all summer, but now i got a Turbo Levo, i ride everywhere.

When i first started riding i tried to explain it to people by telling them i jad to use my brakes on the climb.

I am a turbo lover and love to ride in turbo. I wish it went faster, with more power.
But one of the best things is the adjustability of the power. I can ride in full boost mode Trubo, or make it feel more natural like im pedaling a real bike, with a lil help.

When im done a good ride, i am buzzing. I do a lot of good rides.

720wh? they only do 700wh dont they? killer bike had mine just over a year and love it

[retrobling]

Nice review! Did you change anything in the Öhlins rear shock to match the bikes kinematics? Looking into this option too

[FWCaptain-kvsm]

I blew my motor. Can’t get a new one The bike is garbage

[romand]

Any of you gen 3 Levo owners have any issues with the motor after a year plus of riding? I've only had mine for a few months and it's been great so far!

[bertfranqui]

nice bike and review, what fork you riding? still mullet? Have a nice ride.Levo gen 2 or 3?

[Texasbird]

This may be a small thing to some but I think the battery should be easier to remove. I want to be able to charge and store in climate controlled location to preserve battery life. My garage not climate controlled and battery is a major operation to remove or install for riding.

[romand]

Are you swapping the stock battery with the 500W battery for weight savings?

[strutstipher]

I bought the same bike and changed everything before it left the shop because the standard bits are not good.
