Massive Tire Clearance

Massive Tire Clearance

Clearance for up to 29 x 2.2” tires on a drop bar bike? Wild, we know. But John Cordoba, Creo 2 Product Manager, explains how much better the ride is with high-volume rubber on any surface, thanks to the SL 1.2 system.

Road or Gravel? 5 miles or 5 hours? Climb or Descend? Suffer or Smile? More power or less weight? Creo 2 isn’t about having to choose. It’s about having it all. With more power, big range, lightweight, huge tire clearance, and Future Shock 3.0, it’s category defying, making previously impossible rides possible.

  • SUPERNATURAL AMPLIFICATION: The all-new TURBO SL 1.2 system delivers industry-leading efficiency for a range of up to 5 hours. It creates 33% more power (320 Watts) than its predecessor and delivers that power across an ideal pedaling cadence for a supernatural feel. With 43% more torque (50Nm), the power comes on instantly—making quick work of the steepest hills. But less is more when it comes to noise, so we reduced dBs by 40%. It’s literally whisper quiet.

  • RE-TIRED FOR CONFIDENCE: 700 x 47c Tires Spec’d but up to 29" x 2.2 Tire Clearance. The big tire volume delivers a smooth and confident ride on the roughest of terrain. And with the Creo 2’s power, you can take all that tire volume to the road with no penalty for a next level silky ride.

  • FUTURE SHOCK 3.0: The Creo 2 features Future Shock 3.0 with 20mm of smooth travel at the handlebars that reduces impacts by 53%. Future Shock helps keep your hands and bars steady for a smoother ride with more control to stay fast, safe, and confident—all while helping reduce fatigue over long days in the saddle.

  • THE GEOMETRY OF CAPABILITY:  The Creo 2 boasts our most progressive geometry yet that will have you ripping everything from wide open roads to dicey gravel tracks with ultimate confidence. A more ergonomic endurance position feels great, with the power to ride all day.

  • TUNE IN, TURN ON, DROP ‘ER DOWN: Lower your center of gravity with the dropper post for enhanced cornering and control in any terrain.

  • LOAD UP, HEAD OUT: Take a little or a lot on any ride. Creo 2 accepts a variety of front, rear, and low-rider racks. Who says you can’t take it all?

  • YOU’RE IN CONTROL: Our most advanced and intuitive e-bike control unit. Connecting the bike, the Turbo OS, the Specialized App, and the rider, all in a protected and easily visible display. With MicroTune, fine-tuning power output levels in real-time is at your fingertips, optimizing your range management and performance.

  • MASTERMIND TCU:  The MasterMind TCU is the brain of the bike. Displaying all relevant info about your ride, it allows real-time tuning of support levels, enables over-the-air updates so that your bike gets better over time, and seamlessly integrates with the Specialized app for advanced tuning, on-trail diagnostics, customizable display, and more.

  • ALL-NEW SPECIALIZED APP: The Creo 2 integrates fully with our Specialized App and lets you personalize your motor characteristics. You can record your rides, personalize your screens, track your data, sync with other apps, and even thwart would-be thieves with Turbo System Auto-Lock.

Even better than the first Creo 2!

My second Turbo Creo. Upgraded from a Specialized to S-Works. Love the new controller. 98% of my rides are without battery assist, and bike is responsive and much lighter than my previous bike. Love love love!

Creo SL SW Carbon first impression

Mid Aug/24 I received my Creo SL SW Carbon after 8 months waiting for it and I love it. It helps me at age 90 to keep up with my much younger friends and I don't have to worry about hills yet still exercising at the same lever as with my 2015 S-Works Venge. I had drafted a detailed first impression review including results after two test rides each of over 100 km, but it exceeded the review length limit. So all I can say here is that I recommend this e-bike for those who still love to exercise but have power/stamina problems or medical issues both of which apply to me.

S-Works Creo

I purchased the previous S-Works Creo and really enjoy it. I’ve spent a lot of time trying to figure out where to mount the power assist buttons for the most ergonomic position. After several setups, I settled on them being on the inside of the brake hoods. Once I decided where, I popped a 1/2” hole through the inside of the brake hoods with a hole cutting tool used for leather and other soft materials, then slipped the buttons under the hoods and into those holes. One problem I have is trying to depress those buttons with gloves on. I wish we had a selection of 2 or 3 different types of buttons to use. If the current buttons didn’t have such a stiff spring, they would be fine…maybe more like the SRAM blip buttons. If the blip buttons had the same plug-in connector, we would have more options. These are just things I’ve been thinking about as I’ve been going through this process! It’s quite the bike for sure, I love it!
