When I bought the Levo I was doing 5 feet jumps
The ebike has allowed me to progress at such a rate I'm now doing 25 feet jumps so the Kenevo will suit me better.
I've seen the bike and it's decent.
2020 Specialized levo/kenevo rumors?

It ‘could’ be possible as the new 2.1 motor is 15% smaller but I think looking and comparing the two engines and the engine mounts you would need to be an engineering genius to get the 2.1 engine fitting the older Levo with a 1.2 or 1.3 engine
1.3
2.1

Yesterday was the day! My Expert finally arrived and I did my first 40km on it ?happy with the color! It looks so stealth

You're not completly right. There are two versions with different engine mounts.

But anyhow... an upgrade is nearly impossible. The new battery and the TCU will be needed too...

This colour is sooo good!
Congrates mate. Enjoy the shit out of that!
Well, that shows how shot my brain is, in my distorted brain image the motor mounts are in the same relative places, but the 2.1 sits below the mounts (like the real picture) .. now if only I can download the incorrect images from my brain .. it seems so much more plausible if you have those images !
Imagination .. it's a wonderful ... and dangerous thing ....
You have the Kenevo bug, it’s quite contagious.Well, that shows how shot my brain is, in my distorted brain image the motor mounts are in the same relative places, but the 2.1 sits below the mounts (like the real picture) .. now if only I can download the incorrect images from my brain .. it seems so much more plausible if you have those images !

First you misinterpret battery range, then gear selection, motor comparisons.
Next thing you know your praising Yamaha motors...

Only brings them to a price point slightly high for their component level.
Is that a 2020 Ally Comp?

I'm on the fence should I wait for the new kenevo or get a 2020 levo, already have the old 2018 levo, just dont know what to do. Has anyone actually seen the new kenevo yet, is it worth the wait.

drive it. when you reached 40.000km buy a new one
Given how close the launch is I would personally wait just to see. It is likely though that you may have to wait much longer than the release date to get your hands on one though unless stock has been sent out ahead of the launch to retailers. I’m very happy with my 2019 levo and regularly ride such places as the Golfie Innerleithen etc which it copes with well. Only caveat is that I have a 170mm Lyrik ultimate on the front and flip chip on low for days like that. I was easily keeping up with/faster than others with 180mm kenevo’s and acoustic bikes though. Bottom line is you will have fun on whatever you have but I do appreciate the extra travel up front hence why I would wait and see!!

I've got a 2016 Levo 99% sure I'll get the 2020 levo, but can't commit until I've seen the new kenvo just in case
The Levo is such a capable bike, unless you really are riding a lot of bike park stuff, or DH tracks, then I can see much point in waiting.
I think a comp with the travel set to 160mm is pretty much a no brainer, just can't see any point in going further up the Levo range unless you really are a good enough rider to benefit from the adjustability of the factory suspension.

Ive got a 2017 Levo. 99% battery health. sure i‘ll don‘t get the 2020 levo.... and the brose 1.3 is much more silent. perfect bike.
The bike isn't even ridable with the governor on. The new firmware has is cutting out at like 20. I can ride faster on a peddle bike.
Loving to see these new colors!
Yes it cuts out at 20mph, you know why?
Because that’s what the law is. Why would they make the bike go more than 20mph when they are federally mandated no to to exceed 20mph? Do you think they want to be liable for that?
With the new federal law in national parks allowing classes 1-3 of Ebikes, you might see that 20mph become 28mph everywhere
