Creo SL Comp Carbon Evo Specialized 2023 White Sage/Smoke

Why is gravel so appealing? Is it the break from city streets and cars? Is it the audible crunch of rocks under your tyres? Or maybe it's just the feeling of adventure? Whatever it is, the Turbo Creo SL EVO is here to give you assistance in the woods, on the gravel track or on your next adventure.

It features the same motor, battery and frame as its road-going cousin, but with a larger tyre clearance and adds some adventure-ready components that will take you wherever your heart desires to be. It's you, only faster.

The Turbo Creo SL Comp Carbon EVO features a Fact 11r carbon frame, which is the same as on the S-Works model, and also mounts a Future Shock 2.0. For the set-up, we've included a Shimano GRX 1x groupset to take over shifting and braking duties, while DT R470 Boost™ wheels are fitted with 38mm Pathfinder Pro wide tyres so you can ride fast and free on tarmac or dirt. And for the saddle, you'll find our fan-favourite Body Geometry Power Sport saddle offers plenty of comfort, while the X-Fusion Manic telescopic seatpost comes in handy when the descents get a little uglier.

• The Creo SL is the lightest e-bike in its class, literally a few pounds lighter than the competition. The light and stiff FACT 11r carbon frame not only inspires dancing on the pedals and having fun in the corners, but also reduces overall weight and increases range.

• The lightweight SL 1.1 motor doubles your effort with up to 240 watts of powerful, quiet assistance to extend your ride. The motor's response curve delivers power perfectly in tune with your normal riding cadence and without resistance when riding unassisted.

• Stressing about the battery? Not on the Creo SL. With a range of up to 130 kilometres on its internal battery, the Creo SL eats up the miles and long days. Our optional range extender provides up to 65 additional kilometres of mountain-packing power.

• By connecting with our Mission Control app, you can adjust the SL 1.1 motor to your riding style, record rides and view battery status. The app can also manage the battery automatically, ensuring the battery will last as long as you need it to. The engine even has a built-in power meter that transmits power to any unit via ANT+. Don't want to connect? No worries: the Turbo Connect Unit (TCU) on the top tube gives you all the control you need to ride.

• With Future Shock 2.0, it not only offers a smoother, more comfortable ride, but also reduces fatigue and increases speed on rough terrain. With the 2.0 format, you'll find a power adjustment dial to turn FutureShock on and off. The new Smooth Boot and Future Stem, meanwhile, improve aesthetics with a clean transition from head tube to stem.

• We've learned that there can be more difference between two riders of the same gender than between a man and a woman. Gender alone does not provide enough data to specialise. It means that separating male or female bikes is arbitrary and outdated. With this concept in mind, we have developed a geometry that is best suited to all riders. One that is comfortable and agile on the road, but includes all the attributes you'd want from a gravel bike: long wheelbase, fork with accessory threads and a low bottom bracket that keeps the Turbo Creo SL EVO stable at high speeds and gives you full control in corners.
