I think a vast majority of reviewers and owners agree the small internal battery is the biggest disadvantage for the gen 2 levo SL. Even a 360WH battery would've been ok-ish. Not sure what spesh was thinking here increasing power and not increasing battery capacity. However the software and hardware integration and range extender kind of makes up for it I guess. It's not the best looking bike in this group but the agile playfulness, adjustable geo, and many colors available is what made me go with the Gen 2 Levo SL. I have the Carbon Comp spec in size S3 and it weighs 41lbs with pedals and somewhat burly continental tylenol enduro tires.
Yeah, definitely a big trade off for the light weight! But for folks who don’t go on long rides and want as a light of a bike as possible it has its perks!
Both were great! But we preferred the Lyrik by a small margin, it felt soft and supple at the top, but still handled bigger impacts just fine. Of course some of this can come down to setup, and I’m sure we could have had the 36 feeling like that with a bit more time
I have the Levo SL. If you want the availability to add more range with and extender, the Levo SL is the way to go. Fazua hasn’t delivered the extender for nearly two years now. I wouldn’t hold my breath waiting for them if more range is a factor.
Big thing to look at here is the vertical feet, we were climbing really steep fire roads. But yes you’d get much further on flatter terrain! And every bike was in their middle setting

I get out og mine Levo Sl2 more than 1300m of vertical climbing in 18km. On top I had 15% of battery left. Riding mostly on eco/trail…
I am really torn between the heckler sl and the levo sl expert. How Do you guys think about it and how is the lyrik compared to the 36?

I ride in Eco mode and I get 2x the climbing these guys do. I'm lighter, and I upgraded to some lighter components.
Only 15kms... Seems so little.. Is this on 100% power assist?
