With the size of an ebike battery relative to a standard car battery, I can easily see how you could toast your car battery if your regularly charged your bike with it. But hybrid and fully electric cars have much bigger batteries operating at much higher voltages... wonder if car manufacturers...

In case anyone's interested, it turns out the CC progressive springs won't fit the Kenevo's Rock Shox coil. Looks like some other companies make progressive springs that will fit (TBC). Will look to find a suitable progressive spring down the line and then compare it to a linear ramp spring both...

Has anyone fitted a Kenevo, or other emtb designed for a coil shock, with a progressive spring? If so, how did it affect the ride of the bike? If you went to a progressive spring then did you choose one with a lower spring rate at the start of its travel range, or one that starts at the same...

Good point. The news about Spec giving a 4 year transferable warranty on 2020 Kenevo's sealed it; just bought a 2020 Kenevo for a grand less than the 2021s and am pretty happy I've now got a 4 year warranty on the motor to boot!

This announcement pushed me off the fence between a YT Decoy and a Kenevo... Just bought a 2020 Kenevo expert! Seeing as the 2021 Kenevo's appear identical I am actually very happy to have a 2020 that bike will have 4 years of warranty rather than the 2 years of a 2021!

IMO, when it come to things you need when you're going out to ride or do other exercise away from the bustle these are some tthings that should make the top 5 things to bring along: Duct tape...^above comment covers this but duct tape most recently saved my day (again) in February so am going to...

Forgot to ask; what would you guys guess a Kenevo bought now to be able to sell for in 3 or 12 months?

I'm badly missing my stolen Rocky Mtn Altitude PP (my first emtb) so am going to buy another emtb to keep me entertained whilst otherwise having fun is banned. There's no real option to go kick some tyres and take test rides with a pandemic on so I'm just going to take a punt... and that punt is...

Yeah, it was definitely a bad day when my bikes got stolen and it was especially worrying as my bikes were specifically targeted. I normally keep my bikes in my flat but the lift broke and my RM is too big to carry up the stairs without some gymnastics so I put them in our building's bike...

I normally road bike but used to mountain bike when I was a kid. I also love tech and had been intrigued by EMTBs and had been looking at bike porn about them online for while, but had never got around to riding any ebike. Then I came across a huge price drop online for a brand new (but last...
