2020 Specialized levo/kenevo rumors?

[Doomanic]

How long do you think it will be before the new Bosch is replaced? If you think it's next year, you're very, very wrong. The last Bosch Performance CX motor has been around for quite a few years.

That's a horrible colour.

That's a horrible colour.

It wasn’t my favorite

Thanks for info. Have you tried RMP Ram Control?

I have a long time ago, it definitely works, but it will be exactly the same as adding/removing volume spacers. Useful only if you require constant fiddling with volume which is strange.

The DVC and Runt are completely different products, they allow a much more linear air spring curve due to the 2 air chambers effectively created. Essentially it will give a much more "coil like" feel if you will. The smashpot is the real winner, however it's quite expensive, non-reversible and adds a lot of weight to the fork.

If it’s a Kenevo they will be 27.5

Yep, some people also think it’s O.K. for grocery stores to change the expiration dates on the food they are selling. The guys that designed the 2020 motors are trend setters and pay close attention to modern detail advancement, just look at the futuristic designs by @Zimmerframe and you will see all the benefits of new technology. The Apple store will happily sell you last years iphone as a 2020 model that just sports a different color.

I've come to the conclusion your an internet warrior.
This is my last reply hope you get things sorted.

To all the people who have complete photos of the Kenevo, please send them to me.
I promise I won’t show anyone. ?

27,5

Is it definitely 27.5 both ends? Or mullet set up like the Decoy, e160 etc?

I've got a really clear one, but Al's warming up for his evening sex show in front of it and trust me, you really really don't want to see it, you'll never even be able to say "Kenevo" again afterwards - Mentally scarred plus a high chance your re-productive organs will actually physically disconnect and crawl under some furniture.

 

[Zimmerframe]

27,5

That looks like a conventional dropper .. ?

Is it definitely 27.5 both ends?

From those in the know so far it sounds like 27.5 both ends. So Definitely ... Maybe.

Hi all, please don't post any crappy low res pics of new bikes taken on Nokia 3310's.... Thanks!!

It’s a Levo Evo anyway, my dealer has been teasing me with Yes or no answer. Just as bad as not knowing.
A mate saw the picture on their shop computers but he’s a tripper who doesn’t really get our obsessions.
He says it looks a little like the enduro but then it has the side thing like the Levo. 180/180, Boxxers and that’s all he told me.
Like I said he’s a tripper so I still don’t actually know what it looks like.
To all the people who have seen it and are on the forum,

I hate you all!

 

[E-volution]

Just post the pic under an assumed name the specialized embargo nazi's won't get you in your sleep promise. I have cancelled my order for the bike because I have decisions to make that won't wait, I don't have time for some marketing ploy infantile screw around. Tell me or lose me to a competitor

It's frustrating waiting for something you know is just around the corner, but I don't think it's a marketing ploy or screw around - it's just an official release date to give a fair and level playing field to all the dealers so they have time to get stock and information.

It would actually be in Specialized interest to release the information as then some people will hold off buying different bikes and wait for the 2020 Kenevo. But they won't, because they're trying to run a professional business. For the people who won't want it, it won't make any difference if they release that information 4 weeks ago or in a week.

If you have one ordered and you're going to cancel it, you just need to talk to your dealer. If he thinks you're genuine it's upto him if he wants to divulge certain information to you, but that's then on his head and depends on if he trusts you to keep that information secret. If you're telling other people to divulge information and photo's they've been entrusted with and you think that's ok, it's not exactly going to make your dealer hugely confident in giving you that info.

I'm not sure what you want to know about the bike that's going to change your decision from when you ordered it. You can work out most of the specs from what's been said and even from what's not been said on here. Like pretty much any bike, if there's something about it you really hate, you can generally change that part.

I'm assuming Spesh have launched a few bikes in their time, know what they're doing and are happy to take that risk.

 

[p060064h]

I find it funny how I've seen the bike and know what components it comes with so I've put a deposit down.
I went to my local Specialized concept store yesterday to ask when they are getting it in so I can see it in the flesh rather than just a photo.
They didn't even know when it was being released never mind what components it came with.

I don’t like when your serious. It’s red33 weird.

As for the above ramble, did you ever think that people just want to see it? Not everyone is patient like you.
I’m not buying one ever since I knew it wasn’t going to look like the love child of the new enduro and demo.
Still I want to see it!

 

[Zimmerframe]

I don’t like when your serious. It’s red33 weird.

That is pretty weird.. ok .. so serious = bad ...

Well .. this threads "under administration" for the next week or so then .. which can only mean it's open to hijack/abuse/stupidity.... otherwise it goes cold and dies... and we can't have that .

I think red's off searching for members to join his Cult of Yamahology.

The three pronged rules being :

You will call your wife,husband,girlfriend,boyfriend,partner,amenable farm animal "Yamaha".

You will say Yamaha if anyone says anything to you which you disagree with.

You will include "Yamaha" in the search box if you ever find yourself needing to search for internet pornography. (Therefore, within 3 years, "Yamaha" should be the single most searched for word on the internet)
