Newbie decisions here in OZ

[Smac21]

Hi guys,
I have officially caught the bug in the last month. Love the amount of riding these things enable me to do, especially when life’s crazy busy.
I am looking for some advice. I have tried in the last couple of weeks the Thok Mig R and liked it, the Trek Powerfly 7 and it didn’t agree with me and a Merida e160 900e, which felt amazing.
I have an opportunity to buy a demo Kenevo with only 100km on it for a cracking price, but won’t be able to demo it. Has anyone ridden both the Merida and Kenevo and can offer a comparison. The riding I do is varied all mountain, bike parks, longer days out exploring. Would like to try the 19 Levo but they are impossible to track down here in Australia, and I am off to the Oz high country for Xmas and want to get something sorted for my trip
Thanks in advance for all your advice

Hey mate I tried the Merida they have a great spec and ride nice but the sizing wasn't quite right and not keen on the battery position looks a bit dated, the kenevo is for big hitting and would be good if your riding in the rough stuff I ride a Levo and ride around the Harcourt bike park just south of Bendigo Victoria and it was a toss up between those two.

hey mate, yeah I know what you mean about the Merida looking dated.
I was riding your way earlier this year, at la larr ba gauwa Park, it’s awesome fun out there. How’s the Levo handle the terrain? The day I was there I had a top spec enduro and it was so much fun.

Yer no problem I like the north side with sweeping berms jumps and switch back climbs my heart usually gives out before the battery dose.
