The quick read

Is it for you?

Best suited to

Experienced enduro riders who want a genuine 170mm-travel bike that still feels light and lively on the way back up.

Standout strength

Full S-Works carbon build with SRAM's XX Eagle Transmission and 220/200mm Code Stealth brakes, it's a no-compromise enduro chassis with an SL motor bolted in.

The main compromise

It's S-Works-only pricing (from roughly $15.5k) for what used to be available in cheaper Comp/Expert trims, and the platform hasn't been refreshed since 2023.

NoThrottle

Confirmed on the live specialized.com/au product page: 'EN15194 compliant (250W Cont, 25km/h) as required on NSW roads and road related areas.' Specialized's own marketing copy elsewhere describes this motor delivering 'up to 20mph/32kph' assist, which is the US/unrestricted-region tune; the AU page explicitly claims the 25km/h EN15194 figure instead. Pedelec only, no throttle. Enduro eMTB intended for off-road use; speed limit is a road/road-related-area requirement.

Specialized

One of the world's major bike brands. Specialized's Turbo lineup is anchored by the ultra-light SL motor system that has redefined what a commuter e-bike can weigh.
