I'm going to sell my Kenevo SL, too. I bought a Levo in April, and I don't ride the Kenevo SL anymore. I probably should have just waited for the Levo SL Gen 2 to be released. But my new Levo is pretty good.I'm going to sell the Kenevo SL. I think it is very difficult for me to buy a FF again. The new Levo SL is unbelievably fun!
Yeah. I have a few really long, steep climbs where I ride and I love the torque on Levo. I was riding a Kenevo SL with the 35 Nm motor until this April, and those hills were long and hard compared with my Levo. Although I got a better workout on my Kenevo SL, it was not as fun for me as the full powered Levo. I guess I'll sell my Kenevo SL and maybe wait and see if they updated it with the 50 Nm motor in the next year or so. Because I like the stability of the Kenevo SL. It's really stable on some of the sketchy downhill logging roads I ride. My Kenevo SL and Levo are both S4 size. I wondered if I should have gotten an S5, but maybe S4 is good for me. I'm 184 cm / 6'1 tall and a heavy guy.I had the Levo Gen 3 Pro S5 before...as well as Orbea Rise XL.
The Levo Gen 3 was fun to ride in all-mountain but 1 size too big and got a bit to much SUV riding trails.
I just had the SL 2 for some days but it is perfect for trail riding. Today I had a 15 km ride during 1.5 hour with 300 meter climb. SL2 used 23% of battery in a ECO setting for 10 to 35% power.
If I just where riding mountain enduro with long climbs Levo Gen 3 would be a better choice.

The Gen2 Levo SL runs a 55mm chain line.Does anyone know the chain line on the Sworks and the comp models are they the same? And is it 52 or 55
There go the rumours of it having a bigger battery (400Wh+). Where has leaked it this time? Looks like the Concept Store website?I previously owned a Gen 3 Levo and now have a Gen 2 SL. I wouldn't say one was better than the other, just different. They both have strengths and weaknesses, the FF Levo is considerably more powerful and arguably quieter under most conditions but it's very difficult to push beyond the limiter on more mellow terrain. The SL is far more agile and playful, it's more like riding a regular MTB with a helping hand on the climbs!
If money was no object, I would have both but as I really only need one bike, I kept the SL as it was more suitable for 90% of the riding I do.
Looks like Kenevo SL with 1.2SL motor will be with us shortly...

Move the TCU cable to the non-drive side and use the blanking plate that came with the frame on the drive side.My Gen2 SL is now built but needs a firmware update that can only be done at a dealer, so taking it in tomorrow. I did think that it was all over the air now though.
Anyone had success securing the Mission Control cable in the frame port securely.
It suggests cutting the tab off the one that is there and that should then a secure it better, does that work?
I’m running AXS so it will be the only cable coming out on the drive side
Thanks. Will it pass through one of the slots of just push into the back of the guide? At the moment It would just fully pull out, not really gripped.Move the TCU cable to the non-drive side and use the blanking plate that came with the frame on the drive side.
No need to modify the ICR guide...
That's what I did - I have my rear brake and handlebar remote out of the same side... and the other side blanked off.Move the TCU cable to the non-drive side and use the blanking plate that came with the frame on the drive side.

Did yours come with any cable tidy’s? I need to pick some up as mine didn’t. Smarter than zip ties!That's what I did - I have my rear brake and handlebar remote out of the same side... and the other side blanked off.
It took me a minute to realise what the blank was when I opened all the boxes!!
The Trail Remote connector cannot pass through the ICR guide base holes and must be threaded through the slot located on the front of the guide base. I've never had to Remove the tab on the ICR guide.Thanks. Will it pass through one of the slots of just push into the back of the guide?

For us UK folks, one thing I like about the SL is that you can route the rear brake cable on the drive side. Not many other bikes you can do that on without modifying guide tubes...That's what I did - I have my rear brake and handlebar remote out of the same side... and the other side blanked off.

I’m not getting this am I So it doesn’t really clamp it as the cable diameter is pretty small, or, back of the actual connector pushed into that slot?The Trail Remote connector cannot pass through the ICR guide base holes and must be threaded through the slot located on the front of the guide base.

I kept the 3 from my Levo SL and reused them. My brake / remote cable are neatly clipped together!Did yours come with any cable tidy’s? I need to pick some up as mine didn’t. Smarter than zip ties!
Do you know why I can't update my firmware on my Levo in Japan? I've contacted a couple of shops here and they won't update my firmware.Move the TCU cable to the non-drive side and use the blanking plate that came with the frame on the drive side.

Some updates have to be through a wire at a dealer. I’ve just had mine done.Do you know why I can't update my firmware on my Levo in Japan? I've contacted a couple of shops here and they won't update my firmware.
Try using the Specialized suspension calculator for Stumpjumper EVO, it works well for Levo SL.Anyone willing to post their weight then shock and fork pressures. Stock fork and shock.
Would be good to get some feedback for tweaks.
I’ve set mine up today and will go out for a spin later. Started at 80psi fork and 180 psi shock. I’ll see how that feels/works. I’m 83kg kitted
As an example, I run 219PSI at 75kg kitted. I can easily blow through the travel...Cheers.
I’m not sure my shock will move at 248psi but I will take my shock pump with me. I cycled the shock as I pumped it up but could well need more once it’s ridden and settled.
I’ve attached a picture with my custom frame, fork and shock decals.
