Specialized Turbo Levo R First Ride | The Missing Link?

Is the Specialized Turbo Levo R the eMTB we didn’t know we needed? Sitting between the Levo SL and the Levo 4, the Turbo Levo R introduces a new take on the full-power trail eMTB. With 130mm of travel and a more precise, rally-inspired ride feel, it aims to blend agility with power in a way that hasn’t quite existed in Specialized’s lineup before. We travelled to the south of Spain to put the Specialized Turbo Levo R to the test. In this first ride, we break down how it performs, where the ride feel sits in the Levo lineup, and what Specialized has done differently with this new machine. Is this the perfect middle ground between lightweight and full-power eMTBs? Here are our first impressions after multiple rides.
