I have to be honest, as someone who just plunked down the coin for a Creo SL last week, I'm starting to wish I had waited right about now. I'm sure the Levo SL and Creo SL updates aren't too far behind.

$15k USD ... holy frejoles!

I would have cracked the CF frame on the first ride

New and Improved. Looks great. Costs more.

S-WORKS bikes have never been inexpensive

 

[Mr. Max]

Am I missing something? The least expensive Levo is $13,000 US? Whoa! I'm at a loss for words.

Of the variants announced so far. Less expensive, lower-spec'ed trims will surely come in due time.

From Off.Road.CC
"New spec and colourway options are all available to be seen on Specialized website as of today. The 2022 Levo will be launched in three specs of SWORKS for £13,000, PRO for £10,750 and EXPERT at £8,500. Plus, interestingly, it comes as frame only for £6,500, something we reckon is going to be super popular."

I hope the new TCU display makes it to other models.

Pity they couldn't come with Comp

I hope the new TCU display makes it to other models.

The newly integrated MasterMind display in the top tube replaces the existing TCU and is one of the most noticeable updates...

 

[Trifecta]

Regarding the possibility of the Mastermind TCU display making it to other models:
I reached out to my LBS and Specialized support today to chat about the announcement, availability, and the possibility of an update to the SL models later this year. There is not currently any planned update to either SL line to motor 1.2. The TPU is also not backwards compatible with the 1.1 system, so there will be no TPU update on the new Creos or Levos until those models receive an update to 1.2. The only thing planned for the SL models this year are new colorways with new components.

Take that with a grain of salt of course as I'm sure neither my LBS or Specialized themselves are interested in undermining demand for their remaining Creo and Levo SL stock if those bikes were also receiving an overhaul.

 

[Mr. Max]

I just bought a 2021 Levo Comp 3 weeks ago. Got curious to see if there's a firmware update for my new bike. Looks like one popped up today too. Will be curious to see what's in it? This has happened to me countless times with computers. I buy a new gazillion dollar computer and two weeks later, there's a new model and my two week old computer is already outdated. Figure it'd happen with an ebike as well. Cheers!

[Mr. Max]

Have you all seen this video? Pretty cool! Even though it's not officially supported, it looks like the new mastermind control unit is compatible with at least the Levo 2 and Levo SL. I've also seen other videos that say the Levo 3 motor and battery are compatible with at least the Levo 2. Anyway, I thought it was interesting to see the mastermind control work in both a Levo 2 and a Levo SL and thought I'd share. Cheers!
