Levo Extender battery - https://bit.ly/4jKbowj This is the shorter-travel, lighter, more playful version of the Levo Gen 4: 130mm rear / 140mm front Full 29er 5+ lbs lighter Same motor, same 840Wh battery Now with updated 850W firmware But here’s the big question: 👉 Is it actually faster? 👉 Can it beat the Gen 4 Levo on the uphill time trial? 👉 Can it beat the Amplow 850W? 👉 And how light can you realistically get it? In this video I break down: • Where the 5 lbs were saved • Frame changes (540g reduction) • Fox 36 SL vs 38 • Motive brakes vs Maven • Purgatory T9/T7 tire setup • 200/200 rotors • One-piece cockpit • Geometry tweaks (65° head angle, adjustable stays & BB) • 600Wh battery option • Extender-only 40lb setup • Uphill time trials (full power + extender only) • Ride feel vs full Levo • Who this bike is really for • Pros and cons • Running battery connection fix • New firmware features (850W, walk modes, MicroTune 0) ⚖ Weight Breakdown S-Works Levo Gen 4: ~51.5 lbs S-Works Levo Rally: ~46.5 lbs With 600Wh battery: ~43 lbs Extender only: ~40.5 lbs That’s serious range flexibility for a full-power bike.
