I think it will be legit, I have been a member of this group for around a year and it’s a reliable good Levo community

Apart from the cheaper version coil shock and the colour I cant see many obvious 2019 changes, hopefully a big reduction in price.

I would say the fork may be a Yari as Pikes do not come in a 180mm version.

It still looks bloody nice!!!

- 460 kWh battery
- 180mm Yari forks

A Facebook post has all but confirmed a new Kenevo Comp is about to hit.

the guy who posted reckons they are pikes and made just a for the kenevo as this exact question was asked. i much prefer the cali fade colour scheme though

 

[Wolfie]

Any rumours about the price?

 

[ccrdave]

i wonder what the dropper post is

 

[Dax]

Love the colour

 

[Levorunner]

According to my LBS 2019 Spesh EMTBS due in with Specialised UK in 2 weeks, they had heard rumours of bigger range of bikes and maybe the bigger battery

Where?

 

[Topov]

I spoke to my LBS and he has all sizes in stock. I am going over there the weekend to look and take some photos

 

[R120]

In UK?

 

[Topov]

Yep in the UK

 

[Doomanic]

Who are your LBS?

 

[Topov]

Doomanic are you interested in one?

So, according to a reputable dealer, Berkshire Cycles, he has them in stock. MSRP of £4,250, but call for deals.

 

[Richt20000]

To me those look smaller than 2.8 tyres. Anyone know if these version is speced with 2.6?

 

[Finch9981]

I called Berkshire bikes earlier, couldn't confirm the price but advised they would likely be on average 12% lower than rrp. the lower batter capacity is a bit of a put off though

Yea, it it has been lower spec but same motor and bat then I would have jumped in as I already have some fox 36 180mm and carbon hoops. But I’d rather wait for the sales and pick up a 2018 kenevo for 3600-3800 in a month-3 months

 

[R120]

Are there any 18 Kenevos still around to be in the sales?

At the moment, stacks it seems

 

[Doomanic]

Or lots of shops all trying to sell the last few in the Spesh warehouse...

Spech doesnt work that way -

The poster of the photos has confirmed it came with 2.6 tyres

I spoke to LBS and looks like expert version of the kenevo for 2019 is unchanged apart from the colours. They have dropped the green, black continues and the will have a Matt blue colour. Comp is cheaper with smaller battery and lower spec fork - Yari, also 1.2 motor

the green was my favourite colour, do you you know if the blue is a solid blue or a fade like the green was?
