    Fox 49 Kenevo is finished !!!!

    I’m impressed. She rides like a long travel bike but I’ve built a single track trail with skinny’s and sharp corners so I can learn to use my body and weight to take a turn. So far she’s no 29er hard tail but with time I’ll get after it and be close. I think she has great handeling for most...

    Fox 49 Kenevo is finished !!!!

    Matchy matchy for sure. But the WU post just reminded me of my last colonoscopy visit so I was not having that . And what he said above ?

    Fox 49 Kenevo is finished !!!!

    So the fox 40 requires an entire new wheel set ( look up “fox 40 kenevo” on YouTube, you’ll thank me) , but the rep for Fox did extensive research and found a better solution, that is the fox 49 boost. The difficulty here was the stock front hub was not 20mm. So we sorted out a matching hub...

    Fox 49 Kenevo is finished !!!!

    It’s solid oak, cut so the bottom rear triangle sits just a mm above the brace of the stand. It’s positioned to move the weight inward so no matter what way I lean the wheel it will not fall. Meaning the stand has perfect balance with the bars turned right or left. I made a prototype before...

    Mud dirt and rain in my future, but should I ride in it ?

    West coast is the same. I stick to trails I will not rip up in rainy weather in my epic HT. No different on the kenevo. The kenevo was a pain to clean with just muck off and light hose use. My 29er I could power wash and re lube the parts :)

    Mud dirt and rain in my future, but should I ride in it ?

    Vail lake has endless trails for everyone. Cyclocross to DH and it’s huge. The outer fire road is 12 miles or so with tons of trails in between. Southern California has great riding, from coastal mountains to Forrest DH trails. It’s disney land for cyclists.

    I’d say medium for sure as that’s dead center for the range.

    Fox 49 Kenevo is finished !!!!

    So I took The Kenevo out for a hard trail and DH run in the rain today and what a beast. It’s hard to compare the new Kenevo fox 49er to the stock kenevo or levo. But I’m just impressed. The kenevo should have been a 200mm travel bike from the beginning. Now that the levo is a 150mm bike it’s...

    Mud dirt and rain in my future, but should I ride in it ?

    So Sunny Southern California is taking a pounding with our first thunderstorm this weekend. It will clear up a bit Sunday and I want to take my Kenevo out. But from what I’ve read in other post, I should avoid water mud and rain. Is there any truth in avoiding mud puddles and riding in the...

    Kenevo Gen1 Official 2018/2019 Kenevo thread

    The Kenevo comes with the 507 battery not the new 700wh battery. I have a 2019 and there was no change. Only the Levo got a full remodel. They also are not compatible. ?
