So, off to Specialized HQ in Zug, Switzerland to collect the victors spoils... Quick workshop tour ( with interestingly, a very loaded pallet of warrantied failed motors)...and there's "my" bike!
Brand new, full warranty Levo SL Expert Carbon, Code RS bakes, Eagle XO1 groupset, Roval carbon rimmage and the most obvious difference to stock is the RockShox fork and shock. Claudio has a RS sponsorship deal so a Debonair and Pike were fitted instead of the Fox. Oh and some Pump For Peace stickers. We like stickers.

I asked about a range extender battery but no new ones were in... Martin nips off and gets one from a demo bike, plus the cable, plus the Y charging cable and I did a deal with an extra donation to VeloSolutions. Happy days, a little happy dance and a big smile.

Not a bike personally, I would have chosen (Turbo Levo,yes please), but, here we are with a nice problem to have.

Even if I didn't win anything, VeloSolutions do some really good stuff with pump tracks and I'm very happy to support their work.

Thank you Claudio Caluori, thank you Specialized.

Don’t know how to reply, smug person with bike you don’t want? Raffle it off to contribute to another charity?

Looks big, is it an XL?

Wow. Congrats. As nice as it is I guess it is a bit of a downgrade compared to your usual bike.

Spent Sunday on a Levo SL. Really thought I wouldn't like it on the downhills as it's so much shorter than my normal bike, but it was actually great! The rear suspension was particularly good. I'm sure you'll enjoy it.
