Specialized Turbo Levo SL Comp Carbon 2025 - Electric Mountain Bike
It’s All About the Ride
The Specialized Levo SL offers lean and responsive trail bike handling. It’s tough enough to withstand heavy abuse, light enough move around easily and - thanks to the Genie shock - offers a magic carpet ride feel.
The generous cockpit centres you on the bike, optimizing traction and corner control. The super-adjustable geometry features a low bottom bracket with a slack headtube angle. This keeps things stable in the rough while giving you the freedom to destroy the turns. Combined with a lightweight drive unit you get e-bike power with trail bike manners.
Magic Carpet Ride
With a Genie shock controlling the 150mm of rear wheel travel the rear suspension on the latest Levo SLs gets a significant upgrade. The Fox Float X Genie shock reacts to small bump forces much better without sacrificing small bump sensitivity. You get a much flatter spring curve than a regular air shock for a more ‘coil like’ ride feel. This gives you more grip and a more composed ride over rough terrain with plenty of bottom out resistance. And with a piggyback reservoir performance is consistent on long descents over challenging terrain.
All the Genie equipped bikes get a Fox 36 fork offering
160mm of composed travel up front for capable control on rough trails.
How the Genie Works
The Fox Float X Genie is a dual chamber shock that offers a two-stage spring rate. In the first 70% of travel both chambers are open offering a flatter spring curve for a very supple, sensitive feel. When the shock reaches the last 30% of travel the outer chamber shuts off, reducing the air volume for a more progressive spring curve that prevents bottom-outs.
The Genie offers the best of both worlds - coil and air - with extra spring curve tunability (through volume spacers) and zero compromise.
Turbo Power
The new Turbo SL 1.2 motor offers 43% more torque (50Nm) and 33% more power than its predecessor. It’s also much more efficient, so the 320Wh battery will amplify your natural pedalling power for up to 5 hours in Eco Mode.
If you want to ride further, you can slide the 160Wh range extender battery into your bottle cage for 50% more range. The range extender is included with the S-Works bike and is available separately for all other models.
Tuneable Control
The Mastermind TCU (Turbo Control Unit) with handlebar remote switch controls the power modes. The 3 main power modes are infinitely adjustable in the Mission Control App, so you can set them up to your preferences. You can also switch to micro tune mode on the fly for 10% incremental power adjustment.
The Levo SL offers an intuitive combination of human and electrical input monitoring. You can view metrics like your cadence and pedal power alongside motor performance. It can connect to a heart rate monitor and can even log your airtime.
