The Turbo Levo is Specialized's top-selling eMTB and has become an integral part of the eMTB world. In 2021, the American brand launched the third generation of their e-vergreen. Can the latest descendant of the Levo dynasty keep up with the hottest bikes of the season?
Easy and intuitive to ride for riders of all levels
Top notch motor and feature integration
Very quiet on descents
Provides too little feedback for active riders
