  • My comparison video between the Trek 9.9 and my new Specialized Turbo Levo. I am definitely leaning toward the Levo, watch the video to see why. Also check out the custom mudguards over at sicomtbproduct... use discount SICO11 at checkout!

    2 servicing dealers in my town so it comes down to the rail and the levo. Mullet concerns me as I love my XC 29'er, although in the parking lot I didn't notice anything super negative with the 27.5 trailing. Not having a way to test them on a real trail near me is my hang up on spending $5-6k+. Appreciate your video and comparison!

      @@ebikesandthings I mean they do have good EMTBs but the fact thats only online and their 720wh is always out of stock would probably wait 6-8 months before you can get a spare is a deal breaker. Theres alot of good options with good specs for price between 5-7K. Overall love the levo! 🤘🍻

    Definitely the best playful e-bike on the market, but stock fox suspension really sucks. My fork bled every ride till I changed it to Zeb,
    and thinking of replacing the rear with Vivid air or coil, when the size is in stock. I've tried 29/29 wheels, they lose all playfully and feel exactly like a Rail, and the space between the frame and rear tire is super small, even with 2.4 tires, any rock easily can damage the frame in that case. so, after I broke that 29 rim on a trail, I've ordered 27.5 again and it feels perfect now.

    I would go with the Trek only because of the dealer network, think there would be less down time in the case of motor failure.

    what is a suspension token? Is it a preload thing? nice review. looking hard at buying a Turbo Levo Comp.

    • @ebikesandthings
      @ebikesandthings  Месяц назад +1

      The token just reduces the air chamber so refuses how much air you can put in, you will definitely be happy with a Levo.

    I have gen 4 Trek rail 9.8 but upgraded. My friend has Turbo levo carbon frame with all the upgrades you can think of. You cant go wrong with either. I prefer rail more because of the looks, size and feel. But both bikes are incredible. Though i lean towards rail.
    For Bosch motor, i think its preference thing. That turbo power on bosch is love and life imo. But i agree bosch motor is a powerhouse and you feel it. But idk on my rail on eco mode it feels like normal bike. Also on bosch app you can i believe change settings however you like it.
    But as for suspension, i totally agree. The factory setup i got with rail had the superdeluxe select+ and i absolute despised that shock. I also have slash with ultimate thrushaft and its night and day. So i changed my rail shock to vivid air and its awesome.

      @@spawnrcandbikes Yeah, changed to manual bike yesterday. I tried my 2022 Trek slash 9.8 XT. Its top of the line bike. But it felt horrible to change from ebike. As if the breaks were on all the time. Felt like there was something wrong with the bike honestly. I think turbo mode changed my nervous system. CX line is a powerhouse.

    @2:34 you mention “A bright sunny day.” You are totally in the shade I can see the reflection of the trees in the display overhead. You can also see all of the shade being cast on the ground. Try actually getting outside in the actual sun my guy!
