New Specialized Turbo Creo 2 Comp E5, the most affordable model in the range
Specialized does not forget those who are starting in cycling and are looking for a more affordable bike when defining their range of electric bikes. For those looking for a road ebike with full features but are not willing to take out a loan, Specialized presents its new Specialized Turbo Creo 2 Comp, built on a robust and efficient E5 aluminum frame.
All the power of the Specialized Turbo Creo 2 now with an aluminum frame
Specialized continues to expand the options of its range of road electric bikes and expands its Turbo Creo 2 model, presented a few months ago in its versions with carbon frame, with the addition of its Comp model, with similar dynamic characteristics but built on an E5 aluminum frame.
Let's not forget that E5 aluminum frames are not generic aluminum frames like the ones we usually find in entry-level bikes but are exquisitely crafted frames to achieve the lightest possible bike and great resistance.

This Specialized Turbo Creo 2 Comp E5 does not give up the Future Shock 3.1 suspension system located in the head tube, which, with its 20mm of travel, reduces rider fatigue and offers the highest quality of ride.
Regarding assistance, Specialized relies on its new Turbo SL 1.2 motor for this bike, capable of providing 50 Nm of torque, 43% more than its predecessor, as well as providing a maximum power of 320 W and is accompanied by a 320 Wh battery. A motor that has also improved in its noise level, reducing by 40% the decibels produced during operation.
As usual, we can manage the operation through the TCU MasterMind display located on the top tube or through the Specialized app itself, which also allows you to customize the different operating modes.
This Specialized Turbo Creo 2 Comp E5 is equipped with a reliable SRAM Apex Eagle, which allows the use of a 10-50 cassette to tackle any climb. Following the all-road approach of this type of bikes, it mounts Specialized Pathfinder Pro 38 mm tires ideal for mixed gravel and road use, accepting a maximum tire width of 47 mm for those looking for a gravel ebike with full guarantees.
Also in this line are the multiple threaded inserts located on the frame that allow you to mount racks, fenders, or any other accessory you may need for your bikepacking adventures.
