![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() We’ve ridden a few e-road bikes with rear-hub motors that are about the same weight, but none offer the promise of 80 miles of range on a single charge (depending on conditions) as the Creo SL does. One of the most impressive numbers mentioned was the bike’s weight, hitting the scales at just under 27 pounds for the 54cm complete build. The 1x-specific drivetrain uses a Praxis crank, and all the current builds use Shimano shifters, brakes and gearing. This means finding wheels other than those Specialized offers is currently nearly impossible. New to Specialized is the use of what they call “boost road hub spacing” with a 110x12mm front and 148x12mm rear thru-axle. The other three models will be road-oriented, but since they all share the same frameset, you could modify the setup to your liking if you have any cash left, which will be a challenge for most of us.Īll the bikes use the front Future Shock 2.0 fork (with 20mm of travel) that was recently launched on the new Roubaix. The Creo SL is available in four models, one of which is gravel-ready with a dropper post and 38mm tires. The overall geometry is very similar to the Diverge with a low bottom bracket and room to fit up to a 42mm tire. The new Fact 11r carbon Creo SL frame combines much of the knowledge that Specialized acquired from their non-assist road and gravel bikes when it comes to construction and geometry. The Turbo Creo SL EVO is built for gravel and multi-surface riding with 38mm tires stock and a dropper seatpost. ![]()
