The specialized.com/au product catalogue still also shows an older 2023-model-year listing (ID 206159) with no live price and local pickup marked unavailable; that is legacy, not the current SKU.

The quick read

Is it for you?

Best suited to

Riders who want a full-power hybrid for a real commute, hills and headwind included, not a leisure cruiser.

Standout strength

710Wh battery and a proper 70Nm mid-drive give it the range and torque to handle loaded, hilly commutes without babying the battery.

The main compromise

At 26.8kg it is not a bike you casually carry up stairs, and the AU tune caps assist at 25km/h same as everything else here, so the drivetrain does the rest of the work above that.
