Specialized Levo SL: All About the Frame, Geometry, & Suspension

Product Details

The Levo SL delivers unmatched ride quality and capability, amplified. For the trail rider who craves serpentine singletrack, sending it skyward, and lives for advancing your skills and fitness. Meet your new bike, the Levo SL. You’ll be blown away by it’s unmatched combination of flawless handling, capability, and “2 X You” amplification that gives you the Power to Ride More Trails. Compare it to anything out there, with a motor or without, and we know you’ll agree — Levo SL is THE ULTIMATE TRAIL BIKE.

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 nail big moves. Its dialed geometry, kinematics, and shock tuning leave nothing desired.

THE FRAME OF REFERENCE — Everything starts here. Lively, precise ride feel. Strategic carbon fiber layup provides super-responsive chassis stiffness. We tuned the entire chassis—front end, rear end, and the link that unifies them—as a single unit to minimize lateral flex under pedaling to harness every bit of pedal force.

GEOMETRY OF CONTROL — The cockpit centers you in the bike, optimizing traction and corner control. The low bottom bracket, slack headtube angle, and reduced fork offset keep things stable in the rough while giving you the freedom to destroy the turns. The head angle can be personalized to, 63, 64.25, and 65.5 degrees.

LESS IS MORE – The Levo SL is greyhound lean and telepathically responsive. Its curated component selection is light, yet capable—for true trail riding. Put it all together and you get the benefits of amplification along with benchmark handling.

MIXED WHEEL — A 29” front wheel ensures stability and surefooted performance in the most hectic terrain, while a 27.5” rear wheel allows for a compact 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 — The all new Specialized SL 1.2 motor is whisper quiet, boasts unmatched smoothness, delivers 43% more torque (50Nm), and 33% more power (320 Watts) than its predecessor. Resulting in “2x You” performance

  • All new carbon frame, comes in mixed wheel configuration (compatible to 29 rear with no extra parts needed.) New kinematic with flatter leverage curve which provides more support and playfulness off the top, but plenty of control in rougher conditions. The headtube angle and bottom bracket height are both adjustable.

  • Worried about running out of power? No problem. Turbo Levo SL eats up big miles and long days. And if you’re looking for even more miles, our included range extender boosts your range by another 50 percent. On top of all that, our Specialized app can handle battery management automatically, ensuring your battery will last as long as you need it to.

  • New SRAM XX Eagle transmission

  • New SRAM Code Stealth Ultimate brakes

Closest thing to a real bike feel!

I've owned several e-bikes (all Specialized) a few Levo's and until recently the Kenevo SL 1st gen. The Levo SL gen2 is definitely the best of the bunch, climbs well handles great and comes with very little compromise (if any) on descents. I can match or beat my times on the Kenevo SL on nearly anything. It's spec'ed very well - I got the S-works but IMO overly expensive, the Expert build is the best bang for buck. One thing I will say - this bike does require work. You'll get a lot out of it if you're willing to sweat a little on your ride, as the battery isn't large enough to run Turbo for more than 1.5-2 hrs. You can use extender(s) if you can swing by the car mid-ride, but for long 4+ hr rides you'll be needing a lot of your own watts. That being said I can still get 30-40% more done even in Eco mode.

Best of everything

After owning s-works Stumpjumper and Stumpjumper EVO bikes, my girl and I are now riding S-works Levo SL e-bikes. We are not kids. The e-bike assistance opens up our riding here in the Smokies where the climbs are tough. The handling is as good or better than our previous regular Stumpjumpers. As a result we are riding longer and more often... and enjoying tremendously.

Levo SL S Works

Not much to say beyond wow - Specialized nailed it with this bike. It is an absolute dream. The SRAM components; the crazy quiet motor; the ridiculous lightweight frame. This bike is just amazing. Having the best summer with my wife (on the Levo SL S works) and my daughter (on the kids Levo SL). These bikes enable us to have the most amazing family times and yet still get a great workout. I am on my trusty 15 year old stumpjumper - the tag line ought to be “You, only slower!!!”

S-Works Turbo Levo SL - Gloss Carbon/Fog/Liquid Metal

Mine arrived this week and have only done a couple rides getting used to everything. Unlike most, I ride the bike with little to no motor assistance which is why I chose the SL lightweight model. On my 1st ride I kept the motor off as much as possible and felt absolute Zero drag in the pedals - amazing! On my 2nd ride I used the Battery Friendly Eco mode at 25/25 and based on my pedal pressure and cadence, I averaged 35 motor assisted watts for the entire ride - barely enough to account for the extra motor weight but loved it! The bike is as quiet as can be when descending fast and you quickly forget about the moderate level of motor noise when moving along at slower speeds. Everything about the bike is great but wish there were better color choices - I chose the Gloss Carbon/Fog/Liquid Metal.

Stunning machine

We think this might be the last bike my wife ever buys. It's perfect, and the Chameleon colour is mind boggling. For anyone that thinks the above colours are from different bikes, they aren't. Blue; Teal; Green; Purple highlights; all dependant on angle and light conditions.
