The Specialized Turbo Levo, a flow trail rider's dream, effortlessly navigates lips, roots, and rocks with its lightweight design, albeit with a reduced battery range compared to competitors, making it ideal for those seeking a playful ride with motor assistance.
Extremely light
Fun and poppy suspension kinematics
Available range extender
360 Wh battery range may not be enough for some riders
Less supple in chunky terrain than the travel numbers would suggest

Simply put, they took all the positives of the Stumpjumper platform and added a motor to make this an extremely versatile all-mountain machine.
Aug 2024 · Natalie Martins
A powerful eMTB that empowers young, confident riders to tackle longer and more challenging trails, the Turbo Levo SL Kids is trailworthy steed for advanced riders.
Extended ride time without excessive fatigue
Makes quick work of extended elevation gains (500 ft.+)
Customizable speed assist via Specialized App
Handlebar remote for easy assist level changes
Max speed can be limited to 10 mph at dealer
MasterMind computer unit displays battery, speed, mileage
Walk assist feature
Local bike shop support
Aggressive positioning may be uncomfortable for beginning riders
Motor only engages when pedaling (no throttle)
Dropper post limitations: minimum seat height 29.5" with dropper, not suitable for shorter kids
Non-removable battery must be charged on bike
Heavier weight (36.8 lb) compared to analog bikes and woom UP 5 (34.8 lb)
Pedal strikes due to long 155mm crank arms
Weight makes bike less maneuverable on technical terrain
Battery not compatible with range extender

How did the Specialized S-Works Turbo Levo SL fare against the competition in our big 2024 trail bike group test?
Excellent balance between agility and composure
Makes you feel at ease right from the start like no other bike in this test
Very good motor integration
Brake lines rattles against the handlebars
Expensive

The Specialized Turbo Levo SL is a blast to ride, it shreds trails, looks cool, and is very well rounded and capable. However...
Playful
Cornering machine
Jumps, hops and moves with ease
Adjustable geometry is top of class
Versatile in many ways
Louder than other drive units
Smaller battery, less range
Not that powerful of a drive unit on steeper terrain
Price to spec, Value
