Specialized Turbo Como 3.0

Nov 2021

The 2022 version of the Specialized Como, as tested here, is virtually a new e-bike compared to the previous version. Whilst it is still a city bike rather than one geared towards out and out sporty performance, Specialized have emphasised comfort and convenience even more - most noticeably by bringing in a totally new frame design with a lower step-over height to make the bike even easier to get on and off.

Specialized Turbo Como 3.0 Review

Dec 2019

Price: $2950.00 | Model Year: 2020 | A great entry point for Specialized, starts at $2,949 and has relaxed cruiser riding position, hydraulic brakes, a smooth mid-drive motor, and a lot of great little features

Observations
  • A great entry point for Specialized, starts at $2,949 and has relaxed cruiser riding position, hydraulic brakes, a smooth mid-drive motor, and a lot of great little features

  • Features a custom Brose CB mid-drive motor that was tuned just for Specialized, 36v 12.8ah frame integrated battery, TCD display, 11 speed Shimano Alivio derailleur, and Tektro 180mm front 160mm rear hydraulic brakes

  • High quality paint colors, battery integrated lights, plush saddle with elastomer bumpers, Nimbus Sport high volume tires with reflective sidewall and puncture protection, custom kickstand, and bottle cage bosses

  • No suspension, rear light could easily be blocked by a jacket or coat, and the lower set of bottle cage bosses on the step-through frame don’t have much clearance, so your options in what would fit there accessory wise would be limited
