A lightweight e-road bike with a strong assist when the road tilts uphill, the Specialised Turbo Creo SL Expert is made to provide a natural ride sensation. Long rides are handled calmly and comfortably thanks to its carbon frame and Future Shock suspension, which smooth out uneven roads. Without altering the ride's essence, the quiet, responsive motor offers smooth support that increases your effort rather than overwhelming it, making hills seem simpler. The Turbo Creo SL Expert combines road-bike performance with intelligent electric assistance, making it ideal for riders seeking increased range, comfort throughout the day, and the ability to ride farther and faster.

The Turbo Creo SL Expert is built around a philosophy of "you, only faster," and its key features are all in service of that goal .

• Ultra-Lightweight FACT 11r Carbon Frame: It utilizes the same top-tier FACT 11r carbon fiber frame as the flagship S-Works model . This "Open Road Geometry" chassis is incredibly light (the bike weighs approximately 29.7 lbs / 13.5 kg), stiff for efficient power transfer, and compliant for a comfortable ride .

• Powerful & Efficient SL 1.1 Motor: At its heart is Specialized's custom-built SL 1.1 motor. It provides a smooth and natural-feeling assist, effectively doubling your effort with up to 240 watts of power . A key engineering feat is its near-zero magnetic resistance when you're riding unassisted or above the assist limit, making it feel like a standard road bike .

• Future Shock 2.0 Suspension: The fork integrates Specialized's Future Shock 2.0, a hydraulic damper with 20mm of travel. A knob atop the stem allows you to adjust compression on the fly, smoothing out rough pavement and light gravel to reduce fatigue and increase speed .

• Integrated 320Wh Battery: The battery is fully concealed inside the downtube for a clean aesthetic and improved aerodynamics . It provides up to 80 miles (approx. 130 km) of range, with the option to add a 160Wh Range Extender (in a water bottle form) for up to 120 total miles (approx. 195 km) .

• Smart System & App Integration: The bike features a Turbo Connect Unit (TCU) on the top tube for easy mode switching and battery checks . It connects to Specialized's Mission Control app, allowing you to tune motor characteristics, record rides, and manage battery settings. The motor also functions as an integrated ANT+ power meter .
