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!!!

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

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

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

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?
