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.

Capability
Category-Smashing Capability

Capability

Make impossible rides possible with the absurdly capable Creo 2. Get up to 120 miles of range, progressive geometry, and tire size options that suit anything from fast road to rugged gravel. Load up racks for the long haul, and get low and in control with a spec’d dropper post.

Compliance
Unmatched Compliance

Compliance

Experience the next level of comfort and control of Creo 2 with the all-new Future Shock 3.0 and huge tire clearance. Future Shock 3.0’s next-level tunability and durability provide confident, all-day control, while up to 2.2“ tires soak up rough roads without any speed penalty.

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.

Le rendement de ce vélo est tellement extraordinaire que la plupart du temps on roule sans assistance (OFF) Autant d'aide que nécessaire mais aussi peu que possible (cette maxime est empruntée à la S.E.P.) ...

Great Bike

Similar to another reviewer, I'm 72 and have health issues, specifically a knee that's been replaced twice and can no longer handle the steeper hills in Vermont where I live. I was riding my previous bike, a Diverge, less often and limiting myself to flatter courses. The Turbo Creo 2 Expert has given me the freedom to ride anywhere again. I've put about 800 miles on the bike in the last eight weeks and loved every minute. It's fast, even without the assist. Of course the range depends on how often you use the assist. For perspective, today I rode a little over 20 miles with an elevation gain of 1,279 feet and used about 35% of the battery. The only negative I can list has nothing to do with the bike but rather with the manual and app. The display is incredibly versatile, but the manual/app do not make it easy to understand how to access all of its capabilities. A call to Specialized customer service gave me the information I needed.

Keeps me on the road

At 72, after decades of road cycling, but in declining health, I was riding less as I was faltering on tougher climbs and frankly fearful of not finishing a ride if my symptoms began to flair up. The Turbo Creo 2 is the perfect fit for my needs. Even without battery assist, it's a very smooth ride and doesn't feel like 31 pounds. A few tweaks and 38c tires give it more of a road vs. gravel bike feel. Shifting, braking, cornering and overall handling are huge improvments over my old Roubaix and Diverge. Plus, the clean silhouette and battery hidden in a relatively thin downtube make this a great looking road machine, not a bulky, wonky "E-bike." I'm back to riding daily, enjoying the thrill, and with a new measurement of performance: using less and less battery power from ride to ride. It's great to be improving, and comforting to know help is there if I need it. I feel like a cyclist again, not just a man on a bike.

Wonderful Bike

Just perfect; a versatile and relatively light bike where everything works as expected. Great on the road with the tubeless 38s. Solid & steady on light gravel. Seamless operation with a very quiet and powerful motor. Looking for years of enjoyment from this addition to our collection of bikes. Plus, it looks fantastic in white. Added a Tubus rack to expand on the utility of this fine machine. So far, after about 200 miles the range is in line with what was advertised.

Very nice

Great bike. Now give us an eroadbike. Plenty of egravelbikes out there. I don’t need clearance for mountain bike tires, or need a shock in my steering tube on my road bike. See Pinarello Nytro E7. Hint hint. I know Specialized can do it

Creo2 SL Expert

...hey, hey – mit dem Creo2 ist es Specialized gelungen ein an sich perfektes Rad nochmals zu perfektionieren. Auch wenn man beim 2er hier und da den „Rotstift“ erkennt, überwiegen die Verbesserungen beim Fahrverhalten, Reifenfreiheit, Future-Shock System, Kettenführung, Q-Faktor… Das der Motor nun auch deutlich leiser ist und auch subjektiv harmonischer arbeitet, erleichtert die Kaufentscheidung. Es fährt sich deutlich spielerischer, präziser und intuitiver als mein Creo1, zaubert dem Fahrer ein noch fetteres Grinsen ins Gesicht und lässt den Anschaffungspreis leichter vergessen… Ride on Markus

The Assist Never Gets Old

I’ve been enjoying my Creo Turbo for the past 3 seasons. It looks like some of the new features have improved the bike, which was already awesome. As the riding season in New England wanes, my cycling mates still tease me about the pedal-assist. Yeah, 3 years later and they still comment on it. Maybe it will stop when they finally upgrade.
