2019 Kenevo and other bikes/kit on offer for Black Friday Kenevo Offer from Specialized Concept Store UK

:eek: I came here to post a deal I'd seen but I may have to pull the trigger on that. Have been trying to decide between the Comp and the Expert and if it's worth the extra money. Got a good deal price offered from Berkshire Cycles (would rather buy from them) on the Comp and was about to call them about the Expert. At least now I have a back up idea. Any idea if the Concept Store sale is just today or all weekend?

Anyway, this is the deal I spotted...
If anyone fits a Large bike and has the money to spend... 2018 S-Works Levo Carbon for £5999
2018 S-Works Turbo Levo FSR Carbon Mens E-Bike - Carbon Black/Hyp £5,999.00

This might well be the case as the Di2 mech doesn't need indexing as its already set up for right gaps between cogs.

That is not correct, DI2 need indexing as well but you do it electronically - You have like 10 steps on each side of center. Also, a SRAM 11 speed cassette will work just fine.

I'm only going of my experience when the Di2 mech on the bike im running broke and was warrantied, the new one worked straight out the box. Yes your probably right that it can be indexed. but all I had to do was run the crash recovery mode to initialise it (I'm guessing it ships with the motor disengaged)

Page 62 in below link describes the procedure, there are as a matter of fact 16 steps each way:

Ross,

If you are riding a bike that have a specific power outlet for DI2 you will be fine with that kit but you will have issues finding space for that battery if you have a dropper post as it is supposed to be located in the seat post.

Karsten

Ps. All my DI2 bikes have needed indexing.

@khorn

I have no idea if I have a power outlet or not.

I have a dropper. This is sounding like a no buy in my head atm.

I guess that if you are riding a STEPS Shimano setup you will be fine one way or another I'm sure but I know nothing about Bosh or Specialized in relation to DI2. I have DI2 on all my road bikes and its fantastic. To be honest, my cable XTR on my Levo shift just as good as DI2.

We’re talking Yamaha here so...?

Sorry Ross but I know nothing about Yamaha and DI2. When that is said if we only focus on quallity of shifting, you can achieve the same quality with cable activated rear shifters. On road bikes it is brilliant when you set it up to control automatic shifting between front dérailleur and rear dérailleur. For simplicity I do not run DI2 on my MTBs, I prefer cables.

Gore Phantom 2 Jacket

£50, with £10 voucher back so essentially £40! Granted it's not the perfect season for this, but I've comfortably run these with a base layer for years. If I didn't already have 3 I'd be getting another, still pretty tempted. They have other Gore stuff for decent prices, but this is the pick for me.
