This a an in depth look at my Specialized Kenevo Expert full fat ebike. I figured it was time for an updated review after spending 1200 miles riding it mostly in the PNW.
Awesome review. I have had mine about 9 months and love it!!! Total game changer!!! After watching this I need to check a few things out to make sure all is good. Thank you for sharing the information.
5:10 you landed into the berm! My guy goes “think I overcooked that one a little bit” hahah love to see ya ripping around on that thing! The battery is quite impressive with easily doing 4k feet.
Not only did I send it way deep but that was also a dead sailor! Not my best moment. Good thing the Kenevo figured it out for me 😂 Battery life is definitely solid. More battery in the bike than my legs most days.
Sweet review, nice trails and sick riding bro. Just a comment re battery showing 100% on app that relates to battery health not state of charge✌️…just got a turbo Levo expert might have to give the Kenevo a go for next bike👌
ive got a range vlt setup pretty dh. 190mm zeb and stuff, the geo is perfect 63 head angle and really long, the bike is basically an electric dh bike lol
Oh man sounds like you can’t go wrong either way! Don’t know much about the Canyon ebike but their Sender looked super sick. Good luck with the decision.
Cool video of one of the most interesting e-bikes out there, a nice two bike quiver when you want to smash the downhills like you're on the Spire but don't want to pedal it back up! Definitely think more brands should offer a dual crown option, it's the obvious choice for a heavier 180 mm bike meant for DH riding with the motor boosting you back up. Currently going through the same Fox suspension tuning madness on the Spire, sometimes less is more for us non-professional racers. Would trade my Code RSC brakes for Shimano XT's in an instant, have the contact point set to bite as early as possible so it's feels kind of like Shimano, but not a fan of DOT fluid brakes and all the corrosion and extra maintenance with them, SRAM feels that way too with the new Mavens being mineral oil. Don't feel too bad about the neglected chain wear, wore my NX drivetrain on the Fuel EX far beyond 1% wear and had to replace everything at once too.
It’s so nice having a self shuttle rig although I’d pretty much always rather be on the Spire for the downs. A dual crown on the spire would be kind of fun tho…
Dude!! You are straight up shredding that beautiful horse! Nice work!
Thanks man. Maybe we can rent e-bikes for a day in Colorado 🤔
@@LoamerMTB Possibly, I’m pretty hard up on that Amish life.

Thanks! Yeah check those cables!
Just got myself a 2023 model, it eats bikeparks and dh tracks for breakfast, and at 4500euro nothing came close to it. Really a ripper!
Congrats! It really mows through the gnar doesn’t it.

Grinding the knobbles off the pivot bolts allows another 15mm or so insertion depth. Got a 210mm oneup in mine now. Perfect.
A 210 mm dropper would be a game changer for sure.

Yeah that’s what I meant. I am suprised it is still at 100% battery health after that many charge cycles. How do you like the Levo so far?
RIPPING!! The DH fork on a big EMTB makes a lot of sense.
It’s so much fun!
Oh man, I haven't been on SST since the logging and wow quite a different view coming out of the top section
It’s sad but I guess it’s the price of admission.
@@LoamerMTB I wonder how itll be changed...Almost excited actually
I've got a metal bash plate bolted onto the bottom of my BB on my kenevo! Sounds like it's worth looking into for you.
Awesome idea. Def would be nice to have that area fortified.

Heck yeah 🤘That sounds awesome. Might have to scope that bike out.
Haibike Nduro 8 Freeride Mate. My favourite i want to buy.
Nice! That looks like a sweet build. Mullet with dual crown and coil. Awesome!
Tazer MX Carbon Pro
Yep looks sick.
Can pick one up NEW at €5500. Considering it. Decent value at this price point
Just doubting between a canyon torque on CF

@@LoamerMTB thank you man.
a mullet kenevo is where its at. dumps on the levo
I’ve heard good things! Using the same Boxxer or get a new fork?
@@LoamerMTB boxxer but snagging an ohlins m1 race next week ^^

Lame ebike nonsense is everywhere these days. Sad
You’ll join the dark side eventually…
Lame people hating on e-bikes everywhere. Sad.
