Specialized Turbo Levo SL Expert Carbon 29" Electric Mountain Bike 2022
By harnessing the very latest in motor technology, the Specialized Turbo Levo SL Expert Carbon 29" Electric Mountain Bike is designed to challenge your perceptions of what an electric bike is capable of. As part of the latest wave of lightweight electric mountain bikes, it delivers a quick and lively ride character reminiscent of the critically acclaimed Stumpjumper. The full 11m carbon frame is paired with the ultra-lightweight SL 1.1 motor to effectively double your pedalling power, providing natural assistance up to a maximum assisted speed of 15.5 mph / 25 km/h and a ride character to please even purist mountain bikers.
With a compact design and sleek integration, the Specialized 1.1 motor is a revelation for those looking to escape the traditional electric bike silhouette. With a maximum power output of 250w and 35Nm of hill-climbing torque, it splits the difference between the Turbo Levo and Stumpjumper models, providing the assistance needed to enhance your rides without the weight penalty. At the heart of the Turbo Levo SL is the Turbo Connect Unit, a top-tube mounted gauge which displays power and support information.
The 320Wh battery is sleekly integrated into the downtube and delivers an impressive range for its size. For longer all-day missions, an optional aftermarket range extender is available, boosting the range by another 50 percent. The Turbo Levo SL shares more than just visuals with the Stumpjumper, utilising the proven sidearm chassis design and 150mm of suspension travel.
With a high-performance specification, the expert is equipped with the FOX 36 Performance Elite fork and DPX2 shock. Sharing the internals of the highest end Factory model, the Performance Elite utilises the top-end GRIP2 damper, which provides a wide array of adjustment to suit all rider preferences. For the ultimate stopping power, the SRAM Code RS brakes feature, with their four-piston design offering sharp braking in all conditions. Shifting is taken care of via the SRAM XO1 groupset, which uses the latest 10-52t wide range cassette.
