2026 Specialized Turbo Creo SL 2 Expert Shimano GRX Di2 Electric Road Bike

Season:2026

Brand:Specialized

Code:42218065383370

The Specialized Turbo Creo SL 2 Expert is a high-performance lightweight electric road and gravel bike designed to blur the boundaries between endurance road riding, adventure gravel cycling, and long-distance exploration. Built around a premium FACT carbon frame and powered by the advanced Specialized Turbo SL 1.2 Motor System, this cutting-edge e-road bike delivers natural pedal assistance, impressive range, and class-leading versatility for riders who want to go further, faster, and with more confidence across mixed terrain.


At the heart of the Creo SL 2 Expert is the next-generation Turbo SL 1.2 motor, producing 320 watts of peak power and 50Nm of torque, 33% more power and 43% more torque than the previous generation. The result is smooth, quiet and incredibly natural electric assistance, making steep climbs, long endurance rides and challenging gravel routes feel easier while maintaining the authentic ride feel of a premium road bike. With a range of up to five hours, the integrated battery ensures the freedom to ride longer without compromise.

The bike is equipped with Shimano GRX Di2 1x12 Electronic Groupset, delivering fast, reliable electronic shifting specifically designed for gravel and mixed-terrain riding. Combined with wide tyre clearance and progressive endurance geometry, the Creo SL 2 Expert offers exceptional stability, control, and efficiency whether you’re tackling smooth tarmac, rough gravel tracks, or long adventure routes.

Comfort and control are enhanced by Specialized Future Shock 3.0 Suspension System, providing 20mm of handlebar travel that absorbs impacts and reduces rider fatigue. By isolating bumps before they reach the rider, Future Shock increases stability, improves handling, and allows you to stay faster and more comfortable over long distances.

With clearance for 700x50c tyres (or up to 29 x 2.2”), the Turbo Creo SL 2 Expert offers outstanding versatility, allowing riders to switch seamlessly between road endurance rides, gravel adventures, bikepacking trips, and all-day exploration. The progressive endurance geometry places the rider in a comfortable yet performance-focused position, ensuring confident handling on everything from smooth climbs to technical gravel descents.

The bike also features the intelligent Specialized MasterMind TCU, the advanced control unit that connects the motor system, display and the Specialized App. Riders can customise support levels, track ride data, manage range, and receive over-the-air system updates. MicroTune functionality allows precise adjustments to power output in real time, helping optimise efficiency and battery range throughout your ride.

Practical features such as rack compatibility, dropper post capability, and integrated mounting points make the Creo SL 2 Expert equally suited for endurance road riding, gravel racing, commuting, or bikepacking adventures.


The Specialized Turbo Creo SL 2 Expert Shimano GRX Di2 Electric Road Bike delivers the ultimate combination of lightweight e-bike performance, advanced motor technology, endurance comfort and gravel-ready capability, making it one of the most versatile and capable electric road bikes available today.
