Kenevo Gen1 New Kenevo comp owner coming soon

[Busybee]

Hey Guys,

I’m about to order a Kenevo comp 2020 in S3 in the next week, so figured I’d start a thread for questions I might have and progress as I ride.

so first question is I’m hearing mixed reports about weather a 29” wheel will fit with the standard Boomer forks on the comp?
also I read somewhere that a 29 will fit in the rear ?
More to come and photos of the rig
Cheers
Matt

I think a smallish maybe around 2.3/2.4 will fit bit it will be tight. The rear is the exact same as a Levo so up to 2.6/29 which is what I’m running on my Kenevo. It’s a tight fit but works fine, expect for maybe real muddy days when it picks up rocks. Haven’t locked up the wheel yet but it does run when all the leaves and branches get caught in there. My brother has 2.3/29 tires on his and has no problem with clearance.

Sweet, I have 2.3/29 on my stumpy so I can throw them on for a play

Yeah my brother loves them. I’ve been running 2.6 for a few weeks now with no problems but today’s ride was muddy and picked up heaps of sticks and rocks so it was getting jammed up in there. Didn’t lock up ever but I could feel it drag at times. I do run a Sicomtb guard but even without it’s tight. I’m gonna run a 2.3 for winter and see how that goes.

You guys are in for a thrill!
I have been riding my S3 a lot lately, and it is awzm. I have thrown in a Vorsprung Smashpot upgrade on the Z1 and the bike feels so planted and stable. Super nice!

The Beast has arrived, Invisi frame installed and Magura MT7 brakes fitted. Can’t wait to get out and get it dirty

Mine should be there tomorrow !!!
I will give those breaks a go, but will probably also go with the Magura MT7. Did you have to change the rotors as well?
