Austen from Fly Rides is going to take you on a journey to figure out those questions. The Brose S Mag has largely stayed the same, but the progressive geometry is definitely a massive upgrade on the 2022 Turbo Levo. The Levo is always one of the best and most popular electric mountain bikes. Now it's time to figure out whether or not you should buy one.

    I have a Levo Comp Alloy as my first E-bike and it is a bulldozer. The biggest thing is having faith in the bike as it will just eat up anything that you look at. Unreal technology and power. Best thing I have ever done. Can't get the smile off my face.

    Austen & Michael were great when I went into the Calabasas shop. I purchased the 2022 Specialized Turbo Levo Comp Carbon. Before purchasing my Levo, I had a nice long talk with Michael about what I was looking for. Austen set me up on the bike. Fantastic deal, too! Price was marked down to $6750 from $9K. I got in one great ride in Sycamore Canyon, before my back went out while on TG vacation. Bummer. Absolutely love the bike! Cannot wait to get out on it again. I’ve been mountain bike riding for 20 years. This is my first eBike. What a blast! Thanks, Michael & Austen, for a fantastic experience.

    Nice video and I live in Florida now but I'm from Arizona and this video makes me miss living out west when I was able to ride nice trails like that back in the '80s with my specialized rockhopper comp, lol which I thought was state of the art back then, but this video was really good.

    I just bought a Levo Turbo S-Works and don't have the words to say how awesome this bike is! Never had a Specialized of any kind before. The Brose motor is really powerful and best of all, it's quiet when going through chunk. So far I love the Fox Factory 38 up front and the Fox Factory X2 in the rear. Never had electronic shifting but the SRAM XX1 AXS shifting is super quick and precise. Most surprising of all: the stock saddle is actually really comfortable!

    @FunGoingFast ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Awesome review. Also really enjoyed the Yamaha Moro review from awhile back. I have a Moro Pro. As others said, I have no idea how you ride that fast and still speak in sn intelligent manner. It has to be fast if it looks quick on a GoPro. Looking at upgrading to a Levo Comp Carbon or Expert (with the killer markdowns right now). Keep up the great work.

    Only regret about buying this bike is not doing it sooner. Anyone on the fence about going to an EMB, don't wait! I talked it up so much my wife finally bought one, and she can't wait to hit the trails now. Put the fun back in it for both of us.

    Talk to my local dealer regarding first service and they do a complete rebuild of the front forks, Fox tend to put to much oil in the forks from the factory and when you do the first service after you bought your bike the service is the most important one, new orings and new seals and oil in the front spring, the service take one day.

    I’m 5’11” and went with the alloy comp in the S4. Had it for a month now. My other bike is a SC Tallboy 4 size L. Overall I’m REALLY impressed with the Levo and no regrets on size. Very maneuverable and more than enough torque and power. The Tallboy is now for sale if that tells you anything. The Levo is a blast.

    Thanks for posting. Thinking of getting now that their on sale. I have ridden Specialized my entire MTB life and this seems like a natural progression.
    Is the power output the same for heavier riders? I'm around 240. Are their any other bikes that have strong motors for heavjer riders or is rider weight even a factor?

    I'm also 6'2" and wondering if I should get the S4 or S5, are you solid on the S4 fit? Most people I know my height seem to like the S5 but I want maneuverability in switchback/tight terrain.

    • @austenczapla8630
      @austenczapla8630 ปีที่แล้ว

      I've been riding the S4 for months now and have come to realize that S5 seems to be the better size for me at 6'2. You will not lose much in terms of maneuverability!

    @svanhoogstraten ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Just ordered my first Levo size S5. Weent tinto teh specialized delaer before I did that, They had an S4 and said that i dfenetly needed an S5 due to the seat stem hight, Your 6'2" and so am I, Yet you ride the S4. Hope I was advised correctly. Rhe Specialized website says that the S4 is for up to a hight of 188CM 6'2" = 192cm threfore an S5

    • @FlyRidesUSA
      @FlyRidesUSA  ปีที่แล้ว

      We love both but think the Alloy is the better choice value wise! There isn't much performance to gain jumping up to the carbon. The money you save going with the alloy can be put into upgrades down the road. We recommend a set of carbon bars as a first upgrade as it will smooth your ride by dampening the vibration through your wrists!

    • @kim99may
      @kim99may ปีที่แล้ว

      I just bought an S2 yesterday and rolled over stuff that would have sent me into the dirt on all the other bikes I’ve been riding. Returning to riding after 15 years at 52 this makes those climbs that would have killed me on my old hard tail manual a breeze. I am in love. Only problem is cold hands. Which brand carbon bars would you suggest? Do you have to order them or can I come see at your store? I noticed a huge difference when I upgraded them on my dirt bike years ago. Need to reduce stress on my wrists. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
