I think the new classic Levo is a really good shuttle bike for bikeparks as well. Only 2.5 Kilos difference in weight, but the nicer handling due to the smaller rear wheel. Really not sure by now, which buyer prefers which bike and why. Both are great on the downs, the Levo is more fun and has...

The one i rode was exactly same build as the Levo SL Expert: full Sram XO with Code RSC, aluminium bar, x-fusion post, Roval Traverse wheels with Grid Trail tires. Nothing crazy there.

Hopefully you don‘t need to push your seatpost all the way in, because that doesnt work on the Kenevo SL. Nearly two inches above total insertion there is a mechanical stop. So no 150mm post worked for me (172cm) on this frame ? Max insertion looks like in the pic with the red enduro frame - on...

More like 19+ without pedals and no cushcore in the Grid Trail tires ?

You ARE right with chainstay, wheelbase, bb height and head angle. But if you keep these dimensions AND change the rear wheel size, it will make a noticeable difference. In the same way like keeping the 29“ rear wheel, but changing head angle and fork rake/trail.

With comparable spec, the Levo SL is 1,5 Kilos lighter than the Rise. In my test the Levo SL Expert was 17,8 Kilos with 800 Gramms heavier wheelset (including sturdier tires) and aluminium bar and cranks. The Orbea Rise M10 with additional carbon wheels, cranks and bar was 18,3 Kilos. Both size L.

I should have been more precise. I tested the new Keneveo SL. The old Kenevo is a great and reasonable DH rig with big battery and strong motor as a shuttle option. The SL is even longer/lower/slacker, quite heavy (19,1 with light 29“ tires) and small battery/small motor. I don‘t see the perfect...

Last testride of the new Kenevo yesterday in direct comparison to the Levo SL. Motor seems the same torquewise and max Watt power. Battery as well. Just way plusher rear with more progression and bigger fork. Handling is in between FF and SL Bike. Not sure who is the perfect customer for this...

I did a comparison test: Orbea Rise M10 custom (carbon wheels, 18,3 Kilo) in Trail mode setup: Support Level 3 (250Watt/38NM), Levo SL Expert (17,8 Kilo) in Trail Mode setup: 45/100 (240Watt/35Nm). Uphill speed 11km/h at 70 Kilo rider input average 200Watt (2,9 Watt/kg via SRM Pedals). Result...

fairly light: 70 Kilo

I tweaked 1350Hm uphill out of the battery on my first test in 45/100 trail mode (12% left). So battery should be the same. 2000Hm in 25/100 on my SL is my max height reach with 2,9 Watt/kg average rider power output.

Just needs a longer cable. Loading-port is in a different location.

I checked it in 25/100, 50/100 and 100/100 in Eco/Trail/Turbo I see, never checked on my SL because i never ride with a phone, so no motor data for me. The new TCU shows motor and rider power permanently.

Tested again today. It seems that the Kenevo SL 1.1 has more power. TCU shows 300Watts max power. Maybe a bit more Nm (50 maybe?). It has some punch, but still nearly no support when rpm is under 60.

A rattling bike for over 11000€ is a lot. The Shimano EP8 sound going down is a „no go“ for some. And battery in the levo is bigger, software is better.

First you have to go up with the weight when you put reasonable tires on ? But yeah, not terrible. I will try to check a correct size on day and use the seatstay geometry setting to switch to 27.5 in the rear.

It‘s 19,1 Kilos in S4 with Expert Spec (without pedals) with Grid Trail tires. With Grid Gravity carcass goes to be near 20 Kilo ? Downtube is normal like the Levo SL. Less playful, could be because of 3 Kilos heavier than my SL or because of S4 compared to my size M, which is like S2. Or a bit...

plastic ;)

Had the opportunity to ride the new Kenevo yesterday. Longlowslack in S4. A bit heavy for my liking and the „SL“ idea. Seemed less noisy going up. Are there more Nm in the SL1.1? Not sure. I‘m fairly light (70 Kilos), so i get along with the 35 Nm in the Levo SL. I could climb steepest muddy...

SL means super light and the Kenevo with Mahle will be more sturdy and heavier than the Levo SL. And maybe there will be only one Kenevo in the future. Or the name dropping was just early april fools ?
