Specialized Turbo Levo Comp Fat Review - Prices, Specs, Videos, Photos

Dec 2017

Price: $5000.00 | Model Year: 2017 A hardtail, fat tire electric bike with high-volume 4.6

Observations
  • A hardtail, fat tire electric bike with high-volume 4.6" tires, four frame size choices, and an extensive network of dealers in the United States

  • Sturdy thru-axles provide stiffness and strength, the RockShox Bluto air fork provides comfort with lots of adjustability, dropper seat post offers 12 positions

  • One of the leading designs for motor, battery, and wire integration... the bike is stealthy looking and rides quiet thanks to the Brose motor with belt system

  • Minimalist control panel, you have to reach down to the left side of the frame to change assist levels, the LED battery readout cannot be turned off and is distracting

Specialized Turbo Levo FSR Comp Carbon 6Fattie/29 e-MTB first ride review

Jul 2017 · Rob Weaver

Faster sections of trail, where I quickly reached the speed limit of the bike but still wanted to pedal, didn’t feel as labour intensive thanks to the motor de-coupling.

Specialized Turbo Levo Hardtail Comp 6Fattie

May 2017

The Specialized Turbo Levo Hardtail Comp 6Fattie is a really interesting trail hardtail. With a super-quiet, smooth transmission and an integrated battery it looks and feels a lot like a non-powered hardtail, and it will appeal to people who want a bit of assistance in their riding without buying into the e-bike look. The app-based control is interesting too, and the whole experience feels very stripped back: no displays, not much changing of modes, just going out and riding.

[R]eviewed: Specialized Turbo Levo FSR

Mar 2017

So this is the first time we’ve reviewed an e-Bike in [R]evolution. Over the past few years I’ve briefly ridden a small handful of e-Bikes at trade shows and launches, but until this Levo arrived at our office I had never really dug my teeth into one. You know, set it up properly to fit me, spent time learning about its motor and battery, essentially treated it as if it were my own bike for a couple of months. Now […]
