Price: $9025.00 | Model Year: 2020 | One of the most satisfying lightweight full suspension electric mountain bikes available... just 38.8lbs total! Uses a proprietary mid-drive motor and downtube-integrated battery pack that weigh under 8.3lbs combined. Optional range extender bottle-shaped batteries weigh 2.3lbs, are easy to use, and the control system allows for simultaneous or independent drawdown. You can even remove the downtube battery and rely solely on the range extender packs, which may be eligible for commercial air travel

Boost hub spacing for strength, varied front and rear tire for improved handling and traction, impressive SRAM G2 RSC hydraulic disc brakes with quad piston calipers and 200/180mm rotors, tool-free adjustable brake levers with reach and contact point, four frame sizes and two color options, stock 29er wheel size with flip chip to enable 27.5 650b, infinitely adjustable dropper seat post
Premium Fox air suspension front and rear with 150mm travel for cross country and all mountain riding (designed around the Stumpjumper with slacker head tube angle and longer wheelbase), Intuitive and durable button pad and main control unit with LED lights that can be turned off, optional Mission Control smartphone app offers power setting adjustments, optional TCU LCD display and Ant+ wireless is great for fitness training (watts, cadence, rpm, bpm)
Limited motor torque at 35nm vs. 90nm on the Brose motor system (used on non-SL Levo and Kenevo), high pitched whine produced by motor when pedaling at high RPM (comparable to Bosch CX), charging ports on non-driveside of bike can be difficult to reach when laid down, the bikes are expensive and Specialized charges extra for the power cable to connect the optional Range Extender battery... as well as a dual-charging splitter cable

It is true, with all the wiz and fanfare around electric mountain bikes these days occasionally we still hear a little pessimism from the odd naysayer out there… Sure, there will always be your traditional let us say ‘naturally aspirated’ MTB riders out there who at times may have a different opinion on the modern age of e-Bikes with claims akin to; “They don’t handle that well,” or “They are too heavy.” And to be fair those statements have at […]

An e-MTB with an 80-mile range that gives you twice your power — at nearly the same weight — as a traditional trail bike.

SPECIALIZED TURBO LEVO SL EXPERT CARBON REVIEW Words by Nic Hall | Photos by Drew Rohde Over the past few years we’ve seen the eMTB arms race charge for longer range, bigger batteries and burlier builds. The Specialized Turbo Levo SL bucked the trend

There is no doubt that Specialized, with their top-of-the-range S-Works model, has set a standard that is absolute when it comes to e-MTBs

The Specialized Turbo Levo SL Comp Carbon is a sleek, light and very useable take on the e-bike. The motor might be less powerful than most, but it also has far less mass to push, it's smooth and the battery lasts really well. The spec – in particular the fork – holds it back on rowdy trails and the geometry verges on dated, but for flowy trails and long adventures, the 'superlight' e-bike concept is a winner.

With a bigger battery and beefier fork can the new Specialized Turbo Levo Expert Carbon retain it top-status in the e-mountain bike market?
Smooth, responsive and powerful. Superb integration and brilliant battery range.
Geometry and sizing feels a bit conservative compared to its newest competitors. Expensive considering the parts package.
