    Kenevo Gen1 Official 2020 Kenevo Owners Thread

    my s4 with 740 wH batt, 1400g DH tires F/R, and 220 rotor is 26.5 kg. That's why I'm curious about the frame weight. Might be academic since no one who buys a Kenevo cares about weight per-se (to a point), but it is interesting nonetheless.

    Kenevo Gen1 Official 2020 Kenevo Owners Thread

    I always used online documentation of the hub and rim to determine that. If I had a built wheel, I'd probably pull one spoke and just measure it. Normally if I care about spoke length it's because I have a hub and rim I bought separate and I need to make it work. Here's a dumb question I can't...

    The New Official BLEvo Thread

    I have questions. I'm trying to get the smart assist function working. The goal is to tie the assist to heart rate so I can get boosted assist when my HR is high, and suppress it when my HR drops too low. To me, this is the #1 advantage of Blevo and I want to experiment with it. I use an apple...

    Levo Gen 3 S4 for 6' tall? anyone tried this and happy w/ it or are most saying it's too small?

    6’3” here long legs on a 2020 Kenevo and I’m so glad I got an S4. I like to get off the ground at least a little and an S5 would make it that much harder. If I only liked steep super sketchy downhill (and I DO!), the S5 might be nicer as a purpose specific machine. But I think the S4 for me is...

    Apple Watch (6) and Blevo or ebike in general

    I assume blevo still needs the phone to control, and just gets HR from the watch, so if I get one, still gotta carry the phone. Maybe a future blevo will be apple watch capable. But the idea of ditching a phone entirely and using apple watch as an iphone mini has had me interested since the...

    Apple Watch (6) and Blevo or ebike in general

    I've only got a slanted interest in the apple watch. It is "not quite there" in what I really want it to do, so the price is not justifiable. For 'reasons' I ended up with the chance to have $400 in Best Buy gift cards which pays for the cheapest apple watch 6 GPS/Cellular. I've never been one...

    Military E-Bikes - the new reality

    yup! I would really like a handlebar mounted gun rack so I stay at the ready when I bust the appropriate animal I’m after. I have visions of spooking turkeys and by the time I get the shotgun off my back, they're gone… hunting is one reason I bought the damn ebike to begin with. That I can use...

    Should I trade my Kenevo for a Rise?

    yeah, I'm happy with spring rate at this point. 35/400 was dead, 40/450 is much better. Doug, how about seriously bad ones? And really really bad? :)

    Should I trade my Kenevo for a Rise?

    Adam, thank you! I've come to the conclusion I need to keep the Kenevo. I supose we could talk for days about suspension setup. I'm 150 lb / 68 kg and 6'3" / 190.5 cm which makes me a thin stick that blows away in the wind. Ever heard of "heavy door syndrome?" (lol). For the rear shock I...

    2020 Kenevo derestricting alternatives ?

    So this thing puts the speed limit at 3x the current limit, right? That's just way too much. What if I just want an extra 5 mph to compensate for slightly smaller diameter tires that dropped my max speed by 1 mph and I notice that when riding with other eMTB-ers and want to raise hte limit by...

    Should I trade my Kenevo for a Rise?

    Having periodic grass is greener syndrome. Got a Kenevo and put another couple grand into it to make it mine and it is awesome 95% of the time. The only thing that gets me, and maybe I am making a mountain out of a mole hill, is jumping. I'm a poor jumper and I want to get better at it. And I'm...

    Other Oops! Forgot to save the spec of my 20 kenevo. How do i find it now?

    Thanks guys! Yes it was a Comp. I can find old pages by changing the model number (usually from 20 to 19), but couldn't find it in this case since it's 20 and now still 20. Thanks again!

    Other Oops! Forgot to save the spec of my 20 kenevo. How do i find it now?

    Question in title. Specialized reserves the right to change spec whenever, and they did. My kenevo is the old ‘20 with the coil shock and 11-42 cassette. I’d like to document the complete factory spec. Any way to het the old page back up l enough to screenshot it?

    Anyone else not sold on their new eMTB?

    Thanks for the feedback on that one. I have DH22 on my Kenevo, and DH34 on my regular bike, and they stick to the ground like they are glued to it. I worry sometimes about tire longevity, but I'd hate to sacrifice the ridiculous levels of traction confidence for a little extra tire life.

    Anyone else not sold on their new eMTB?

    Would you believe me if I told you I have a tube in the back wheel? Never burped the front or flatted the back :) I weigh 145 lb, so that might have something to do with it (and the 35lb vorsprung spring, the 400 lb progressive rear spring...) I'm surprised though. This forum is full of...

    Anyone else not sold on their new eMTB?

    I pumped my tires up from 14 or less psi to 26 front, 28 back. I went from F/R spring rate of 35/400-prog to 40/450, and I went three clicks less rebound damping both front and rear. Well, THAT was a mistake! Like riding a pogostick! I'm going to keep the higher spring rates but everything else...
