IT’S ALL ABOUT THE RIDE: When everything works just right, a bike disappears when you ride it. We stripped away the mass to keep the Levo SL lean and responsive. It’s tough enough to withstand heavy abuse but light enough to flick around and pick apart a rock garden. Its dialed geometry, kinematics, and shock tuning leave nothing desired.
THE MAGIC CARPET RIDE: GENIE is our patent-pending air spring technology that we invented that grants every trail rider’s three wishes: maximum grip and traction of a coil spring, better bottom-out prevention than a standard air spring, and the ability to tune mid-stroke and end-stroke support independently. GENIE combines the control-enhancing linear spring rate feel of a coil spring through the “bump zone” with the progressive spring rate of an air spring at the end of the stroke to avoid bottom-outs. Truly, it’s the best of both worlds.
GEOMETRY OF CONTROL: Our design focuses on performance and control from start to finish. A strategic carbon fiber layup ensures a responsive, stiff chassis, minimizing lateral flex for efficient power transfer. The cockpit enhances traction and cornering precision with a low bottom bracket, slack headtube angle, and customizable head angle options (63°, 64.25°, 65.5°) for stability and agility through any terrain.
MIXED WHEEL: A 29” front wheel helps ensure stability and surefooted performance in the most hectic terrain, while a 27.5” rear wheel allows for a short chainstay and super responsive behavior. If you prefer the rolling and traction benefits of a 29” rear wheel, just flip the pivot link chip and mount the big wheel.
TURBO OPERATING SYSTEM: Our seamlessly integrated operating system delivers unmatched performance across torque, range, ride feel, ride quality, power, reliability, and rider experience. It’s the invisible hand that enables you to do more, know more, go farther, feel stronger, and have more fun.
SPECIALIZED SL 1.2 MOTOR: Meet the Specialized SL 1.2 motor: whisper-quiet with unmatched smoothness, it delivers 43% more torque (50Nm) and 33% more power (320 Watts) than its predecessor, unleashing “2x You” performance. Paired with a seamless 320Wh battery pack, the Levo SL ensures premium quality and supports rides for up to 5 hours in Eco Mode. Extend your journey with our 160Wh Range Extender (sold separately), fitting snugly into your bottle cage for an extra 50% range.
IT’S ALL CONNECTED: MasterMind TCU, our advanced e-bike control unit, seamlessly connects with Turbo OS and the Specialized App. Adjust power levels with MicroTune, live over-the-air updates for optimized performance, and more. The Levo SL integrates fully with the Specialized App, offering personalized motor settings and advanced security features like Smart Control and Turbo System Lock.
