When is it being released?

I only was able to get him to call me back on his lunch break and it was only a 3 min conversation. Without asking, he said it's coming out soon. I have seen on the internet people say this thursday, then I saw someone say the 11th, so idk yet. I might call my local SC shop and see if I can pry anything out of them.

Ok no worries, will be good to see what they come out with

I called a few places, they all said it will have the shimano motor with 500w battery. Also said specialized told them if they stock the SC e bike, they have to wait like 2 months to get the levo sl haha.

Oh yeah, they also said it will be a 27.5. Basically an e bike version of the Bronson.

$10k..... Well thats going to be like £8/9k then

Cheaper than S works SL and more power. I'm sure they are going to have cheaper ones, that is for the highest end one I was told.

 

[CjP]

Higher end one sworks price

I'm looking forward to this .. it's when you find @Christian miss heard them and they were really getting in a cheap off season electric Santa Claus for the shop ...

 

[CjP]

Well it turns out I may have misheard the day. The guy yesterday said Thursday but the other guy today said Tuesday. Im
Gonna call then tomorrow again.

They really need to come up with some new names for week days. Sort of decimalise it or something. There's a good 26 letters to choose from to start each day with a different letter. All this duplication of Tuesdays and Thursdays and Saturdays and Sundays, it's an open door to chaos and confusion. God knows how many ladies have been let down by you not turning up on the right day !

 

[Zimmerframe]

Well ... until Thursday .... This is as good as it gets ..

I know right!
I actually never know what day, sometimes month and more often than I’d like to admit not knowing what year it is.
I’m more a free spirit that just floats through life as carefree as possible.
I find it too restrictive. Meetings, birthdays, deadlines yuk!

 

[CjP]

How about rideday and not rideday

Uhm... too complicated and high risk of wasting half the days.. lets simplify it to just "Ride day" ......

Christain : DOB - Unknown, he just popped out.

Funny story, apparently I literally flew out and almost killed the old lady. It’s been downhill for her and I since then. Pardon the pun!

Looks like an e8000 motor.

 

[ImSundee]

That suspension position, that things going be even more on rails than a normal ebike I'm excited.

 

[aarfeldt]

Lots of room for a large drinking bottle.

Zimmerframe voices an objection to the Shimano motor. Some will want a bigger battery. I can live with the 504WH battery because our group rides tend to be under 20-miles and my butt goes numb after 14.

As for the motor, the only motor I lust for is the Rocky Mountain, and even that has issues (personal, for me). Bosch, Shimano, Brose. All.

 

[BeBop]

Straight outta 2017...
Old motor
Battery not integrated
Could've done much better

Obviously this is a 'get one made quick' job to stop losing market share. Prob no better than the Vitus E-Sommet and will be 10K!!

 

[jcmonty]

Maybe its the angle but that seatpost looks outta control!

 

[R120]

Interesting that they made their suspension design work, and yet Specialized couldn't translate the enduro shock mount over to the new Kenevo.

Not an objection. I quite like the e8000. There had been rumour that they might be the first to use a next generation Shimano motor or that the bike might weigh 18 kg's.

Wondering if that image could be fake, I doubt they wouldnt center their logo on the frame. Looks like there is distortion around it (top, bottom, sides).
