It’s not the Cypress Green colour nor the well thought out components that compliment the bike and improve its desirability. Nor the perfect geometry that allow you day long rides over all terrains. It’s the way everything comes together in one package making you want to get back out again and again. The range of the battery and support from the motor all add to putting a perma-grin on your face. Needless to say the lead times from a multinational like Specialized this long into the production run are shameful but once you’ve bagged a Creo it’s going to stay with you for a long time. I have genuinely become a one bike man and don’t caste a covetous eye over other offerings now. As Henry Royce said about his motor cars “ The quality is remembered long after the price is forgotten.” Sigma Oakham provided a comprehensive set up and Will’s expertise added to the whole positive experience.

Creo 2 Comp Carbon Electric Gravel Bike
BEST-IN-CLASS AMPLIFICATION: The brand-new TURBO SL 1.2 system sets the industry standard for efficiency, delivering a remarkable range of up to 120 miles. It generates a substantial 33% power boost (320 Watts) compared to its predecessor, distributing this power evenly over an ideal pedalling cadence for an almost otherworldly riding experience. With an impressive 43% increase in torque (50Nm), this power kicks in instantly, effortlessly conquering even the steepest hills. And, when it comes to noise, less is definitely more, as we've reduced decibels by a significant 40%, resulting in a nearly silent ride.
CONFIDENCE-INSPIRING TIRE OPTIONS: While we've equipped the Creo 2 with 700 x 47c tires, it offers the flexibility to accommodate tires as wide as 29 x 2.2 inches. The generous tire volume provides a plush and assured ride, even on the most challenging terrains. What's more, with the Creo 2's power, you can enjoy the benefits of these larger tires on the road without sacrificing the smoothness of your ride.
FUTURE SHOCK 3.0: The Creo 2 incorporates the innovative Future Shock 3.0, offering 20mm of buttery-smooth travel at the handlebars, reducing impact forces by an impressive 53%. Future Shock maintains a steady grip on your hands and handlebars, ensuring a smoother ride with enhanced control to keep you fast, secure, and confident, all while reducing fatigue during long days in the saddle.
ADVANCED GEOMETRY FOR VERSATILITY: Creo 2 introduces our most progressive geometry yet, enabling you to tackle everything from expansive highways to challenging gravel paths with unwavering confidence. The more ergonomic endurance position provides exceptional comfort, empowering you to ride all day long.
PRECISE CONTROL WITH DROPPER POST: Enhance your stability and control across various terrains by lowering your bike's center of gravity with the dropper post.
AMPLE CARGO CAPACITY: Whether you're embarking on a light or fully-loaded journey, Creo 2 accommodates a range of front, rear, and low-rider racks, proving that you can carry everything you need.
INTUITIVE E-BIKE CONTROL UNIT: Creo 2 features our most advanced and user-friendly e-bike control unit, seamlessly connecting the bike, Turbo OS, Specialized App, and rider, all presented in a secure and easily visible display. The MicroTune feature provides real-time fine-tuning of power output levels, optimizing your range management and performance.
MASTERMIND TCU: Serving as the bike's central hub of intelligence, the MasterMind TCU displays comprehensive ride information, enabling real-time adjustments to support levels, facilitating over-the-air updates for continuous improvement, and seamlessly integrating with the Specialized app for advanced tuning, on-trail diagnostics, customizable displays, and more.
FULLY-INTEGRATED SPECIALIZED APP: Creo 2 seamlessly connects with our all-new Specialized App, allowing you to tailor your motor settings, record your rides, customize your display screens, track your data, sync with other applications, and enhance security with Turbo System Auto-Lock.

Reviews
I’d been thinking about getting an e bike for about a year but put it off. I am at an age when I finally decided I needed a bit of help now and then. I don’t regret my decision at all, used sensibly it just removes the stress and anxiety when joking a group ride with more able riders ( younger and older).

About Specialized
Innovate or die.
Founded in California in 1974, Specialized began with a simple promise: serious riders deserve serious gear. Half a century later, the brand still funds its own wind tunnel, builds its own carbon, and tests every bike with the world's best so that you ride your own best.
The first production mountain bike. The first cycling-specific shoes. FACT carbon, the Win Tunnel, S-Works. Specialized has a habit of building the things the rest of cycling ends up copying.
