12. FLIP CHIPS
The geometry of the Levo can be modified by adjusting the Horst flip chips and adjustable
headset cups. The flip chips are located on both sides of the chainstay near the Horst pivot
and the headset cup is located in the upper head tube bearing bore.
The Horst pivot flip chips adjust the chainstay length and bottom bracket height. The headset
cups slackens or steepens the headtube angle.
The adjustable headset cup is found in the small parts box supplied with the bicycle.
WARNING! Changing the frame configuration (Flip Chip position, tire size,
fork length) can alter the BB height and/or the head tube angle, which can
have negative effects on the bicycle’s handling characteristics and ride
quality. Please refer to your Authorized Specialized Retailer before making any
modifications.
