Kenevo Gen1 Official 2020 Kenevo Owners Thread

May I suggest staying away from alloy anything. I converted my rear wheels to hg drivers so I can run nx cassettes. Gx and the XO cassettes have 2-3 alloy cogs, great for weight reduction, bad for parts lifespans. The front cog is a steal 32 tooth 104 bcd ring. Please avoid trying an alloy chain ring , I have a buddy with a Levo that destroyed one in a couple months.

Can you give me advice what to get? Which Cassette and front ring?

Pretty sure these will do it, your rear hub should be the ratchet style rather than the 3 paw dt Swiss. I have seen on other forums some of the dt Swiss 370 rear hubs were paw style so you should check it.

Anyone got the tech workbook for the 2020 Kenevo (Gen 2) as seen the 2019 Levo one online but can't find a Kenevo one on here or anywhere?

Also whilst I'm here, Just swapped the original Fox DPX2 for a shiny new Factory X2 on my Kenevo and seem to have these 2 spacer looking things left over and no idea where they are from

I've triple checked the upper and lower shock mounts plus the horst link bolts but they won't fit in any of them and I only undid these - anyone recognise them

Anyone able to advise on sizing. I ride a S3 Stumpy Evo. Looking at the numbers an S2 Kenevo is roughly the same. I'm 173cm. Should I go with an S2 or go to S3 and take the extra room?

My wife is 170cm and she loves her S3 Kenevo.

I am 173 too and on my second Kenevo. The first one was an S3 with a 35mm stem and a 170mm dropper. It was nice. It got stolen. I bought a second Kenevo. This time an S4 with a dual crown fork, a direct mount stem of 10mm length and a slammed dropper at 180mm travel. I enjoy the more DH feeling than my previous one. All my Kenevos left at 27.5" wheels.

I also own a specialized status 2022 at S3 size. I wouldnt go larger on this one.

Hope I helped.

Thanks/Nikolaos Tsivis
