What has happened to the long travel option then now that kenevo has been discontinued...?

anyway I got fed up with waiting, put a deposit on a kenevo expert 2024. Maybe they were right to delay the release!

We are now pretty much confirmed at 110nm for the sworks and 100nm for the rest.
Battery will be 840w or 600w (side removable) and there will be a range extender of around 280w as an option.
Motor will be a Brose that Specialized has customized.
150/160 travel.

No different powers between the models I was told. I asked this question as it appeared a few times here.
 
Told yesterday S works will have most power, launch is early April and S works available almost immediately on launch day.

Good specs but 'shocks the industry' good?

I was told my bike would show up at 52lbs…maybe without the battery…Still rides great and is more playful than the levo and kenevo but its a lot of lift into the truck haha if any of these bikes with big batteries, full power, dh tires and proper suspension can end around 48lbs it would be magical.

I love this term “playful”. You want playful and poppy…. Change your suspension, zed is way more poppy/ playful than a 38, go for the trail shocks rather than dh shocks. Float x over float x2, dhx over dhx2. If your suspension is described as ground hugging, it’s not playful.

I can only say what I was told. Be a shame if specialized make the s works more powerful than other models.

Might only be for a limited time. As it will be a software block. I think when Bosch release the update to 3 figures which is not to far away, specialized might have no choice but to allow all models to benefit.

You can either watch it if you consider it an alternative or not watch it until we have a Gen 4 Levo Video :)

I do love my Gen 3 Levo with tasteful upgrades, but the Crestline is something special

Considered buying one but couldn't get past the looks just not feeling it. Lots of good ideas with the frame design and battery options, kind of surprised they haven't sold out pretty much every thread says they are the best bikes you can buy. Haven't seen the SC Bullit replacement yet but I'm sure it will be a lighter much better looking bike.

Nice photoshop @Zimmerframe we all know you can’t fit the Bosch motor and a 800wh battery in to a VPP frame……err or is this the new new Vala

I did contemplate doing a photoshop Gen4 Rob video thumbnail just to upset everyone :cool:

The Gen4 goes one up on VPP anyway .. It's a complete VMB (Virtual mountain bike)

From what I can see (THE SHOCK) that’s been done unless it’s a battery that runs for 200km on a frame that’s 16kgs with a integrated belt and gear drive, with a 110 watt motor , also charges to 80 % in 20 minutes , with a future proof Tradeinn value ( and elephants can fly)

How about a mass produced MGU with belt drive high power levo. Presumably belt can take more abuse than chains, and more power can surely only make that situation worse. It would also open up riding in worse conditions more often as cleaning the cassette/chain etc is a real pain currently, much less with belt.

I realise there are already options out there but they aren't cheap.

I got a chance to take a Rapcon for a spin, the MGU was loud as hell and the screen that it uses was hideous. I’m sure those are things that Pinion will improve as newer versions come out but I couldn’t live with the current version as it is.

I’m waiting for someone to build a bike around the new MGU from Intradrive. According to the owner it’s a lot quieter and lighter than Pinions version but nobody is using it yet.

Yes! Watts are welcome but why is every second Post referencing DJI?

We need a mod to come thru and scrub the thread, it would probably end up being only 20 pages lol.

My guess is that maybe this is the only topic on this site that anyone responds in so it's turn into "General E-Bike Discussion" There might even be a note in that section to come to this thread to post.

Its an uncommon fact that for EMTB's Torque is more important than watts.

Power is Power. The fact is, power = pi/30 X speed X torque, considering efficiency.
Speed and torque is inversely proportional.

Its a fact, that all that matters is total power, at the end of the day.
