Beautiful raw carbon S-works Levo SL. All AXS XX1 Eagle drivetrain, AXS Reverb dropper, Magura 4 piston MT7 Carbon brakes, super light traverse SL carbon wheels. Bike looks amazing with the gold Kashima coated fork and gold lettering. Excellent condition, virtually a new bike. What’s the big deal about S-Works? Let’s compare with a Levo SL Expert which is 2 pounds heavier to start. First the cool factor of an S-Works bike, nothing better. The carbon in the frame is stronger and lighter. MTB wheels are where the magic happens, the expert has Roval Traverse allow rims, the S-Works Roval Traverse hand built SL carbon. The hubs are Roval Traverse rather than stock Roval hubs. Drivetrain – The expert has Sram X01 which is a great group set. The S-Works bike has XX1 AXS electric shifting and transmission ($2,000 for the group set). If you have not ridden electronic shifting it is truly a game changer. For little things like the cranks, you can have forged aluminum or Praxis carbon with a M30 spindle. Brakes – The Expert uses Scram Code RS 4 piston brakes which again are very good brakes, the S-Works uses Magura carbon 4 piston MT7 with Loic levers and 203 rotors. Seatpost and bar – You can use the X-Fusion dropper on the Expert or get a wireless RockShox Reverb ASX ($680). Handlebars? You can have aluminum, I want the Roval SL carbon bar with a Deity stem. The power pro saddle costs $325, everything is top of the line. Suspension – If you are reading this you already know the Kashima coated Fox Factory Kashima coated shocks are the best there is and everyone knows it when they see the gold coating. Did you notice how well it matches all the decals on the bike. This is a beautiful bike.
