Levo vs Kenevo

[Marco_Dunlop_55]

Maybe someone is interested in this: I layed a screenshot from the Levo (Alu) over the screenshot of a Kenevo...

Didn't see much difference except the seat stanchion...?

Hi All, been off line for quite some time enjoying my brand new motored 2017 Levo.

If you want 160mm travel on the rear of your Levo then talk to TF Tuned.

I had a 200mm eye to eye Cane Creek Double Barrel Coil lying about and they changed the shock body and managed to squeeze 159mm of travel out of it ?

My upgraded Levo is not far from a Kenevo

What kind of tyre pressure are you at? I'm at 16 psi front on the 2.8 Butchers on the Levo and that seems too firm to me. Currently riding some hard packed stones that are wet at my local trail centre and the front is really slippery!

I find the Butchers 2.8 have terrible grip on the front ok of the rear tyre a MM 2.6 on the front its like a new bike 30psi or 16psi.>!

lots of talk about this here:
Kenevo stock tyres - grip questions ??? - EMTB Forums

I prefer Air shocks simply so that I can lock it out on smoothish climbs- figure we would do this with no power so it conserves energy with power?

Just so you are aware, you can buy coil shocks with a lock out if you want to go down that route.

Most lockouts work on the damping circuit not on the air spring. E.g. the Kenevo has a online coil spring with a 3 position climb switch.
