Wouldn’t it be awesome if the new Specialized Enduro was even more capable? It would be hard to make a more capable bike in terms of climbing and descending prowess, but what if it made you more capable?

2022 Specialized Kenevo SL Review Want more laps? The Kenevo SL may just be your ticket.

Pros
  1. Exceptionally balanced, descent orientated geometry.
  2. Updated firmware smoothes out pedal assist / cut out.
  3. Efficient transfer of power/efficency.
  4. Agile and maneuverable descending
  5. Active suspension platform keeps bike tracking straight.
  6. Over-the-air firmware updates
Cons
  1. Regardless of geometry adjustment, low bottom bracket/low hung weight increases pedal strikes.
  2. 200mm rear rotor poorly regulate heat / brake fade on long, demanding descents.
  3. Specialized Roval Traverse wheels not keen on heavy use.

Specialized Turbo Kenevo Expert isn't just slapping on a 180mm-travel RockShox Boxxer fork and calling it a day though. It's a completely redesigned frame.

Pros
  1. Progressive sizing and geometry
Cons
  1. Needs a lighter shock tune
