Ensuring that your Kenevo SL is properly fit to you is an important step in preparing for your first ride. Your Authorized Specialized Retailer will be able to provide a basic fit, ensuring that you are able to ride comfortably and efficiently. Specialized also offers Retül Fit, a data-driven bicycle fitting tool designed to improve comfort, prevent injury, and increase performance.
Sizing
Sizing is done using the "S" system, with S2-S5 offered.
Height (in) | Height (cm) | Bike size |
|---|---|---|
| 5'2" – 5'8" | 157 – 173 | S2 (S) |
| 5'5" – 5'11" | 165 – 180 | S3 (M) |

Adjusting saddle height
When adjusting the saddle height or installing an aftermarket dropper post, it is important to ensure the insertion depth is within the acceptable range. The frame requires a minimum of 80 mm of insertion–please also check the minimum insertion depth of your seatpost. The maximum seatpost insertion varies by size and the specific dropper post:
Size | Maximum Insertion | |
|---|---|---|
| 34.9mm standard post | 34.9 X fusion manic dropper* | |
| S2 | 165mm | 188mm |
| S3 | 197mm | 210mm |
| S4 | 205mm | 230mm |
| S5 | 225mm | 255mm |
*measurement of dropper post is from bottom cable ferrule; different dropper posts may vary
Once the saddle height is determined, torque the seatpost collar bolt to 55 in-lbf / 6.2 Nm.
All models use a 34.9mm seat post and a 38.6mm seat clamp.
