With its own, in-house developed electric motor, fantastically light carbon frame and exceptional components, the Specialized Turbo Creo SL Comp
Natural-feeling electric assistance
Lightweight frame
Awesome components
Lots of fun
Dropper seat isn't great
It weights almost 14kg
Very expensive

A lightweight gravel grinder road ebike with flared handlebars, wide treaded tires, a seat post dropper, and unique Future Shock 2.0 steer tube suspension. Available in six frame sizes, sold through a vast network of dealers with professional fitting systems, solid two-year comprehensive warranty. The frame offers provisions for two bottle cages, fenders, and a rear rack, wide range of color options
Boost hub spacing with sturdy 12mm thru-axles provide stiffness and control at higher speeds, sturdier spoke bracing angle, wheels won't go out of true as easily and both wheels offer quick release systems. Powerful fast-cooling 160mm hydraulic disc brakes using Shimano ICE-Tech rotors that dissipate heat from stainless steel rotors through aluminum alloy cores and air directing
One of the lightest yet most satisfying electric road bikes I've tested to date, the motor is surprisingly zippy and actually supports 28mph riding, the internal battery offers modest capacity but weighs under 4lbs. Additional Range Extender bottle-shaped batteries are easy to use and look great on the frame
Y-splitter cable to charge the main battery and bottle battery simultaneously costs extra, the Range Extender battery cable is not included when you buy the accessory, the bikes are fairly expensive in general and offer lower capacity battery sizes by default... and they're not removable (avoid leaving your bike in extreme heat), dropper post seems less useful than a suspension seat post here, no charging ports for aftermarket lights or the Mission Control smartphone app

The S-Works Creo is a big leap into the unknown sector of e-road cycling for Specialized, and we’d say it has nailed it
Fantastic motor integration
Great versatility
Assured handling
Incredible range
Expensive among e-road bikes
Mar 2020 · Dave Atkinson
Super-high-end e-road bike that performs with or without power
Excellent frame and fork
High quality motor system
Top-spec build
Good ride feel
Good range
Very expensive
Not the lightest e-road bike out there
Motor is quite noisy

The Specialized Turbo Creo SL Expert EVO is the gravel version of the bike we previously crowned the best E-road bike of 2019. Can this E-graveller live up to the success of its road counterpart, or is gravelling better without a motor? Click here for an overview of the best gravel bike 2020 group test. […]
Hugely confidence inspiring ride
Modulation and ride feel of the motor
Integration
If you run out of battery power, things will get tiring
No mounting points other than for mudguards
