Specialized Turbo Levo SL Expert - E-MTB for even more trail fun

The Specialized Turbo Levo SL Expert 29" carbon e-bike comes with SRAM X01 Eagle components and behaves just as nimbly, lively and agile as a mountain bike without pedal assistance. It is not without reason that its geometry is based on that of the Stumpjumper, including the Sidearm Design on the rear triangle. With the Turbo Levo SL Expert you can go further, unleash even more power on the trail and experience maximum riding pleasure. This is because the ultra-light SL 1.1 motor with a 320 Wh battery always provides flawless support and does not show any additional resistance even when switched off. This e-bike was equipped with suspension elements from Fox Racing Shox and a Roval aluminium wheelset, and can be custom adjusted to meet your needs using the Specialized Mission Control app.

Information regarding the return of batteries and electrical equipment:

Information on the return and disposal of used batteries and electrical equipment can be found here. For information regarding the return of used e-bike batteries, please contact our customer service.

Guidelines for Replacing E-bike Components:

Before you replace components on your e-bike, please read through the guidelines for component replacement for CE-marked e-bikes/pedelecs with pedal assistance.

Technology:

FACT™
FACT is an acronym for " Functional Advanced Composite Technology" and summarises all the know-how that Specialized has in the use of carbon fibre. It is a holistic approach, which primarily concerns the bike frames, but is found in many components such as handlebars, stems, saddles etc. The starting point is always the awareness for the needs of riders and the capability to fulfil them. Next, the selection of fibres, resins and fabric layers takes place; in this process the quality of the carbon and the arrangement of the fibre layers play an important role. It is important to find the right set-up for the project at hand and the intended location or rather the area of application. It is often necessary to differentiate from model to model at several points. In the final step, attention is paid to processing the material in a way that allows the desired advantages in terms of low weight, rigidity and stability to be achieved.

FSR
The Specialized FSR linkage design is based on a four-joint design with Horst Link in the chainstay, which separates the seat stay from the main pivot point of the rear triangle. This allows the pedal and brake force to be decoupled from the suspension, so that the compression and rebound are solely dependent on the nature of the terrain. This not only converts more energy into forward drive which is direct and without rocking, but also leads to more traction and thus more control. In addition, the FSR system can be fine-tuned to all the possible areas of applications and terrains.

E-Bikes by Specialized
Specialized e-bikes are designed in California and developed with Swiss technology. They take the " It's you, only faster" approach, which means that you have the impression of riding a " normal" bike without motor assistance, but with at least twice as much power. Specialized e-bikes are characterised by a particularly quiet, smooth running electric drive. Due to two special freehub bodies, the crankset and motor shaft are decoupled from each other in such a way that no additional pedalling resistance occurs when the motor is switched off (at speeds above 25 km/h). The battery of Specialized electric bikes is aesthetically and well protected integrated in the down tube. An innovative Battery Management System (BMS) is used to maximise battery life and protect the cell structure. The bike communicates with the rider via the Turbo Connect Unit (TCU), which connects via Bluetooth and ANT+ to a Turbo Connect display, third-party devices and/or the Specialized Mission Control app. This offers additional options such as route planning, route recording or automatic capacity management.
