Kenevo SL Official 2022 Kenevo SL (KSL) Megathread!

Purchased an estoria for my kenevo to try, so moved the ohlins over to the sl with a fresh new 575 spring.
I really want to take it for a session but always remember how hard it is to pedal uphill at the local bikeparks 🤣.
Will hopefully get a few uplift days in this year once fully recovered from injuries.

got to love the Storia, MojoRising in UK put one on my KSL, I hope the Ohlins you moved over compares OK, I guess it'll beat the standard Fox anyhow - please let us know

I was never a huge fan of the ohlins on my ff kenevo. Seemed to bang and crash over things. It was durable though, compared to the previous 2 shocks. But yes hopefully it should be better than the stock floatx anyway.
The e-storia feels way better on the fullpower bike for sure.
 
I just bought a new fhx2 factory for a bargain and mounted 550 spring on it (i am 89kg with equipment).

Is anyone the same weight? Which spring suits you best?
What about setup - what do you prefer for trail riding (mostly rooty terrain with small natural drops and jumps)

Ive posted before my ‘mistake’ of putting an Ohlins on the kenevoSL and EXT on my Arrival, and not the other way around, however after a couple weeks on the OEM FloatX while the O was in the shop, I realized how good it is.

That FloatX almost killed me.
 
anyone have infos on which aftermarket cranks for the ksl2 have the narrowest q-factor?

mine is now pretty much dialled, this year I added Intend Trini[ti ]brakes, Intend Flash, Eagle90/X0 Transmission mix, the Outlier pedals and today my new Fast Suspension Fenix 2.0 shock in complete black no decals

When I got my KSK in 2021, I immediate put on a Fox Factory shock and the added adjustments really were nice.

You went all in as they say! Nice build. Really curious to hear your opinions of the Trini[ti ]brakes, Intend Flash, Eagle90/X0 Transmission??? Sorry, not sure I'm aware of what the "Intend Flash" is? I've been contemplating the Eagle transmission. Does it shift any cleaner? I'm not a fan of the the stock setup, but I keep comparing to my analog Yeti SB130 which shifts like butter in comparison.
 
Hello KSL owners! I've a KSL S4 size, and I'm constantly hitting my butt with a seat in the bike park (e.g. jumping). I'm wandering is it possible to replace the stock dropper post (xfusion manic)? In the default inserted position it has a 80mm height on top of the seat tube ending.
I reviewed a discussion about oneUp dropper posts. What dropper posts you can advice to reduce the height of the dropper post in the inserted position?

I did a detailed writeup on the sizing of a 180mm oneup on the s4.
The stock one was far too tall.
However i have now reverted to the 160mm spesh command post, as i used the oneup on another bike, plus the ksl is an uplift bike only now, so no real need for efficient pedaling.

Worth upgrading from the float X then?
 
Hi,

thanks

You can find the official one using Specialized part number S194200016.
 
Sorry long day and I mixed up my thought I have the 6-bolt one and I would like to use a centerlock hub and disc
 
Hello! I cannot find a freeHub body (HG) for the stock KSL Comp wheels. Can someone guide me where I can find the part number?
Is it in-house or dt-swiss hubs?
 
Hi all,
just to confirm, there is still no mullet link for the KSL out there, correct?
The one from Williams RP does not seem to have "made it"
 
I'm not aware of one, have you tried asking WRP directly?
 
I'm not aware of one, have you tried asking WRP directly?
yes, beginning of last year. they replied that they were planning to release mid year ('24) and will send a mail out when ready for online orders
You can see them here, the 3 pink ones:

Was just wondering if anyone has tried. They dont sell them on their www. and I never gotten a mail either. Will give them a shout.

EDIT: I wrote a new requeust to their orders email. will give an update here as soon i get an awnser.
