Kenevo Gen1 29er Front and Rear Kenevo

[mustclime]

Hi, I need information about converting kenevo to full 29er.
What do I need to replace oem boxxer fork for zeb 180mm fork (bearing...)?
My next tires will be conti cryptotal/argotal.
What tire width should I get for rear side?

You need a 1.5 inch lower head set race.

Don’t know about the forks as mine came with a single crown . I went 2.4 rear and there’s enough room the a mudguard

Hi, beautiful, how much does this weigh?

How is the lever pull on those, I tried a set and they felt kinda stiff. I also saw the a video by Dale Stone.

I find this to be a non-issue. The initial pull is harder, but I only notice it during a 'parking lot test'. After the initial pull, the lever moves more easily. When riding, I don't notice it at all.

ok update on the Mavens
if you can….get them!

they built for emtb and the weight/speed you get going downhill

after a few runs figuring braking distances and power…they give so much confidence now

Hi, I am Newbie and would like to have confirm, what should I chance, if I want to chance my new Kenevo -23 to 29`wheels?
Kenevo -23 Fork is Fox 38 Rhytm, is it suitable for 29?

How about this mavic 29 wheels:

Thanks in advance for any answers,

Mikko

Deemax don't have the best reputation. 27.5 fork is not suitable.

Thanks, so next question,
is there enough space for 27,5+ (2,8 or 3,0) tires?

Not sure, I have a 27.5 Zeb on my bike with 2.8 tires with no clearance issues. If you are going to plus tires, the 28mm rimes that come stock are to thin. I am running 40 mm iw rims.

Good to see you today mate at Degla..I will have a blast at that set up..well a budget version

Great to see you too. How’s it going? Enjoying the new steed after the mods?

 

[Christurbo]

That front end looks way too high and slack and also the BB is to high, you want a 29er fork with a low axel to crown measurement, there’s a table with fork measurements further back in this thread.

For you?

For me it’s perfect and is an absolute ripper. Oh and it can’t be setup that bad - I’ve had a KOM and 6th overall at Degla on some of the DH / Jump lines in just the last week alone.

The Best Specialized eBike Ever... One MASSIVE Problem!

Hey. Im about to start build my Kenevo to 29/29 with the same parts as you had. Could you post in detail the spec of the bike and parts?
Stem length
Fork setup (PSI, comp/rebound clicks, tokens)
Shock setup (PSI, High/low comp/rebound, tokens)
High/low flip?
Offset bushings?

I can't wait to get started with this build!

Hey,
did someone ever tried the new Vivid with 230x62.5 on the Kenevo. Does it touch the frame at full compression?
I would file it down, when its not that much of material.
