mine is 62.5mm - difficult to measure the disc but its between 1.5 and 2mm thick, definitely no more than 2mm.

Nice looking shock! The washer measured just a fuzz over 2mm on my shock. I see on your shock 62.5 is printed on the shaft
Yes it is
Yup, point I making is that I dont think the disc/washer has any effect on the travel, you wouldn't want to ride a coil without the bump stop fitted
When I was looking at fitting a coil to the Powerfly, Bran @ Sprung explained how the stroke on a coil shock could be shortened using those discs.
He said Marzocchi do 3 coils shocks with the right eye to eye for the PF, but 3 different strokes. The stoke is set using those discs.

Seems to be a good price.

First proper ride out on my Expert today and I’m over the moon. Nevertheless, the itch to upgrade has already begun...
I wasn’t impressed with the SRAM Code R brakes, so I’ll be swapping the Hope E4s off my other bike over in the next week or so.
Does anybody know whether the new 220mm Magura Ebike rotors will work with the Hopes?

I run the Hope 225mm on my Kenevo. Mint!

You can use the same rotors for metal pads, no worries

Evening everyone,
Wishing a Happy New Year to all on here!
So I finally got my hands on my new S3 Kenevo Expert. Hopefully the pics come out correctly below!
I've covered 120km in just over a week and a half. Have ridden Bike Park Wales for the first day, then onto the Forest of Dean for a couple of days. A day at Gawton Gravity Hub, and another day at Old Hill Bike Park in Cornwall. Then the odd ride over at Haldon off piste and around the trails.
Sadly I only took proper pics the first day I had it whilst at Bike Park Wales. But I've had an epic time on the bike. It's been very wet and sodden most of the time but the bike has held up well. Apart from the brakes that is. The rear brake lever was back to the bar by the end of the first day at BPW. But sorted by the tech @sprung in the Forest of Dean. I've got through a set of rear pads already, and the bike is in for it's first service.
To be honest I've found it quite an adjustment to ride. It's pretty hard to jump the bike off small stuff and roots etc. You really need bigger lips and speed to get it in the air. But once there it's incredibly stable. Drops off stuff like nothing I've ever ridden before. Possibly this is due to the Boxxer forks, I've never had triples before. But overall it's a proper downhill weapon.
Even on normal trails it feels surprisingly good and docile. Very happy as you can tell from the pics

Hi everyone, new here and just had my first ride on my new Kenevo Expert 2020. What a monster! Question, I am trying to figure out tire pressures on these Butcher, BLCK DMND casing, 2Bliss Ready, 27.5 x 2.6” tires. On my enduro bike I typically run 26 rear/23 front. What would you recommend on a bike like this? Thanks ! Net

Loving your approach to lower body weather proofing
Hahahaha yeah I know. Was trying to stop the knee pads and shoes getting too wet as I was planning to ride a few days in a row!
Should have got the long legged Dirtsuit!!!

Just put these on. Not tested yet.
220 Rotor up front?

No I didn’t receive one of those but I’m going to order one (like we need it in the Surrey Alps ??)!
Got those on my levo, but with the shorty levers, best upgrade to date!

I've been using cushcore for 18 months now and love it. It's in the rear of all my bikes and I haven't had a puncture the entire time and the extra support in corners and hitting rock gardens is sensational. Money well spent imo.
