I was just in Freeborn Bikes in Horsham, and have figured out why no one seems to have any decent stock of Specialized - basically they ordered most of the UK stock!

The have 2018 Levos and Kinevos in a lot of sizes with some serious discounts, also Cube and Da Vinci's.

Well worth checking out if you are in the market, great shop too.

Hey mate. The Kenevo is brilliant and I’d be tempted to get one over the Levo if I was buying again. It is a little heavier which changes the handling a small amount but that 180mm travel just sucks everything up. On an EMTB most of the disadvantages of longer travel, slacker bikes is a non issue (uphill performance, peddling efficiency etc) because we have assistance to overcome it all.

Either way, both bikes are excellent and you really can’t go wrong. The Levo is still capable of bike parks, you can get it in carbon and a bit cheaper with a £5k starting price for the Comp Carbon before any discount.

Cheers
Rob.

cheers Rob, I'm swaying towards the kenevo but my one hesitation is how hard it may be to weight the front on the steeper rocky climbs , have you noticed a big difference between the two?

No issues that I noticed at all and I honestly couldn’t notice much difference between the 2 on steep sections.

Got mine a tad cheaper too.. pretty sure specialised and others dictate what the price of current models are otherwise you lose the privilege of stocking them.

It’s a bit far, I’m based West Yorkshire so thinking leisure lakes or wheelbase have £500 off if you trade in any old bike. Anyone know of anywhere else that has large or XL in a showroom in the north.

phone around Berkshire cycles you will get a 2019 kenevo expert for around that in the end it was to far for me to travel but I phoned a few of my locals up and they got within £100 of them and it would of cost me that in diesel and time so I got it there.
good luck (y)(y)

Back in the USA you will not find deals like this. That’s 30% off us msrp of 7750. Cost margin is 40% area.

I can’t say what deal Specialized gave me on my 19 expert Kenevo but that price is with in hundreds USD of it. I’d jump on that price all day long and with no strings attached ;)
