But how? Specialized have managed this by utilising their top tier FACT 11r carbon to construct the frame. The Creo is literally kilos lighter than most of the competition. The first thing to note about the Creo is the incredibly low weight for an eBike-so much so that it is lighter than many non-electric bikes. Specialized Turbo Creo SL Comp Carbon 2021 Electric Road Bike Specialized have focussed heavily on the two keys areas of weight and battery life to create an electric bike with near zero disadvantages, with the Creo SL being a lightweight option designed to negate the feeling of �range anxiety�. The internal battery will provide assistance for up to a mammoth 130km of riding (mode dependent), and can be stretched out by a further 65km with each range extender. S-Works models will ship with a range extender as part of the package, but Creo SL Expert model owners will need to purchase one separately if they wish to own one. All carbon models in the line share the same Fact 11r carbon frame and boost hub spacing, with the difference between the Expert and S-Works model being solely the parts specification.Īll three models share the same Specialized SL 1.1 motor and 320wh battery, with each model also being compatible with an optional 160wh range extender battery pack. Making a reappearance is the Futureshock 2.0 suspension technology found on the Specialized Roubaix model, perfect for both road and gravel riding, featuring compression adjustment to suit all terrains. The Creo will leave you pushing faster than ever, whether uphill or down, inspiring confidence with every crank and speed-tuck.
This gives the Creo SL a stable and confidence inspiring feel when pointed downhill, a ride character further reinforced by the low centre of gravity created by the crank mounted motor. The frames geometry is shared with that of the Specialized Diverge, the only differences being a longer chainstay length (due to accommodating for the motor) and slightly slacker head angle. This is great news for those who are on the fence between models or like the idea of both the regular and Evo models, allowing you to have the best of both worlds by just swapping out your wheelset. The frame itself offers great versatility, with the road and gravel specific versions being built up on the exact same frame. The Turbo line-up is sleek and stealthy, causing no doubt many double-takes when seen in the wild, and the Turbo Creo SL is no different. Specialized launched the Turbo range way back in 2012 and in the time since then it is safe to say they have mastered the art of motor & battery integration.
Specialized's key aim was to keep the Creo SL feeling like a high spec bike, one that you would always be excited to get out the garage and onto the roads, and they certainly have not disappointed! The Frame The Creo SL is a performance bike at heart, with natural handing and agility that overall feels instinctive and familiar. The Specialized Turbo Creo SL is designed for the rider who is always seeking more, someone who appreciates the benefits that come alongside a Turbo bike and is looking to ride further, faster and with more ease.
