Hey
Hey mate,
Specialized replaced the motor and cranks and that solved the issue, but reading on here and other places that it seems to be a possible recurring problem meant I just sold the bike and bought a Trek Rail instead, which has been mostly flawless.
Update today:
Motor and cranks to be replaced (TCU as well as the screen has an LCD leak). Only issue - no spare motors in the country and no ETA to when it will be fixed.
Thanks all
Yep ok. Damn unlucky either way though.
I dropped mine off to the shop on Saturday. Waiting on response from Specialized. In the meantime, I’ve ordered a Trek Rail 🤣
Either way though, when I realised it was wobbly, I went to tighten it back to 50nm to find it already WAS tight to 50nm. That’s what doesn’t make sense to me.
Thanks,
I’ve got my bike booked in on Monday to have a look over it. I’ve only done about 600km on it since new, I just can’t imagine I’ve done that much wear to it already. It’s also been serviced twice in that period as well meaning it surely would have been picked up then and can’t have been...
Nope, it's only on the drive side in terms of actual play with the crank as seen in the second video. I originally thought the culprit was the bolt loose on the crank in the first place, but it appears from looking at the other side it is designed to be like that.
To be honest, and I know this sounds absolutely crazy, but when riding the bike you actually can't really notice it. I got a mate to ride it and he said he couldn't notice it either. The only reason I noticed today was that I was taking out the pedal to clean out the dirt and noticed the whole...
So I went to go diagnose a pedal being a bit grindy today and realise my actual whole crank is loose on the drive side, such that it wobbles perpendicular to the rotational axis.
I thought maybe the crank came loose but it was tight to 50nm. So I removed it and found the actual bolt with the...

Thanks for the info. I threw it in and went for a ride on Specialized settings. Definitely bottomed out but I did have the sag set at 30% plush so I dialed that back to 25% with a bit more pressure and increased HSC. Might need to add another spacer in there in the future.
I think I’ll buy...
I’ve got a mate who’s parting out a Megatower and has offered his 230x65mm factory for a really good price. I’ve already confirmed it fits and such, but is there an issue with fitting a shock from a Megatower that might have a specific tune to the Kenevo SL? Should I send the shock away and have...
Newbie here, hoping this is the right place to post.
Are the forks and shocks on the KSL e-tuned? If not, can I just put a standard fox factory 38 on the KSL without too many issues?
