With its latest generation e-MTB, Specialized has the likes of Amflow and Bosch set well within its sights as the S-Works Turbo Levo 4 boasts big power and serious integration. With that, it provides an approachable and easy to get on with ride that’ll please a serious range of riders, new and experienced. However, you’ll have to pay for the privilege, the GENIE tech may be an acquired taste, and it’s not quite as light as I would expect for the rather serious outlay.

Specialized enters the 100Nm of torque club with its newly launched 3.1 motor More torque, more power. It’s a move that we expected to see across eMTB motor manufacturers ever since DJI launched its Avinox, which can reach up to 120 Nm of torque with a max output of 1000 watts. With up to 111Nm

Specialized’s Turbo Levo is so successful, so ubiquitous, and so dominant at the top of the e-bike hierarchy that launching a new version is a momentous event, with millions of dollars riding on how it’s received. And that’s in a normal market. But the gen 4 Turbo Levo is hatching into a world so completely transformed that it’s unrecognisable. Where up is down and black is white, and DJI is the only word on the lips of anyone in the market for a new e-bike. Has Specialized done enough to recover the attention it’s enjoyed across three generations of e-bike? Is it still the best e-bike on the market? It’s fair to say no stone had been left unturned in its quest to make the new Turbo Levo a success, so let’s not waste anymore time and get stuck straight into the details. – Short of time? Click here to skip to the verdict – Specialized S-Works Turbo Levo Need to know All-new motor designed by Specialized and built by Brose Power goes up to 720W and torque climbs to 111Nm Three battery options: 840Wh, 600Wh, and 280Wh Side-loading battery Full carbon frame with 150mm travel and 160mm fork MX wheels and fully adjustable geometry Genie shock technology lets you tune the air spring and gives extra traction without sacrificing progression Internal storage with all battery options Colour display similar to Apple iWatch Fast charger gives 0-80% in less than 1 hour S-Works complete bike (S4) weighs 23.7kg Range of 4 carbon bikes starts at £6,799 S-Works frame-only costs £6,799 Hopefully those bullet points give some sense of just how much has changed on this new Turbo Levo, but if you want to read about the other models in the Turbo Levo range, check out our news story here. When the gen 3 Turbo Levo came out in 2021, it felt like a massive update, with totally different geometry and tons of adjustment. But it still had the same motor and battery as the gen 2. This bike, on the other hand, has a completely new frame, 100% new motor and battery, and a completely redesigned interface. So it’s slightly ironic that, to look at it, the new Turbo Levo doesn’t seem particularly special. I don’t think it has the wow factor. Mostly because it looks like a Levo SL that’s spent too long at the buffet. We’ve seen the Genie shock, we’ve seen the adjustable geo, we’ve seen the new Specialized signature side-profile with the Sidearm removed. To be brutally honest, I found it a little underwhelming. True, that’s partly because Specialized sets the bar so high to begin with, not to mention the fact that so much of the hard work is hidden below the surface. It’s still a good-looking bike, but is it exciting? Does it make me look back over my shoulder as I walk away in the garage? One to ponder… Frame and geometry While the silhouette looks familiar to the Levo SL and Stumpjumper …Continue reading »
