The frame and motor have virtually irreproachable performance, but its spec seriously limits the potential

Pros
  1. Adjustable geometry that feels great on the trail; good battery life; powerful motor; comfy seat and grips
Cons
  1. Suspension-damper function limited; puncture-prone tyres; asking price not equitable to performance on tap

Specialized really broke the e-MTB mold when they created the new Turbo Levo SL. It has the same geometry and looks quite similar to their regular Stumpjumper models, but hidden inside the frame are an integrated 320Wh battery and the compact Specialized 1.1...

Pros
  1. Lightweight for an e-bike
  2. Normal trail bike feel
  3. Range extender battery
  4. Quiet motor
Cons
  1. Expensive
  2. Less battery storage capacity
  3. Less powerful drive unit

Pros
  1. intuitive handling
  2. motor delivers a very natural ride feel
  3. successful integration of the motor-battery system
  4. modular battery concept with range extender
Cons
  1. lack of smoothness at high speed and little support from the suspension
  2. puncture-prone rear tire

Pros
  1. Superb suspension and impressive range.
Cons
  1. All sizes could be longer.

The bold drive concept is cleverly implemented and makes the Specialized S-Works Turbo Levo SL the underdog in this test. Despite the small battery, it achieves a decent range and provides a high level of comfort on long rides – assuming you’re fairly...

Pros
  1. modular battery concept
  2. excellent implementation of the drive concept
  3. very agile and playful
  4. the concept bridges analogue and electric MTBs
Cons
  1. cockpit ergonomics
  2. technical climbs

The new Specialized Turbo Levo v3 e-mountain bike is an absolute ripper, perfectly at home on gnarly singletrack, groomed flow trail, and everything in between. It maintains composure and kept me in control on some incredibly technical sections, while turning...

Specialized absolutely nailed it with the new Levo. Yes, the price hurts my heart every time I see it, but that actual performance of the bike puts it above any other eMTB I've ridden. The adjustable geometry, quiet motor, smooth power delivery, and a battery...
