Turbo Levo SL is a new, lightweight breed of eMTB that harnesses the quick and lively ride of our Stumpjumper...and adds just enough power to introduce a whole new dimension of kick ass. The top-shelf S-Works Turbo Levo SL features a carbon chassis mated to FOX Factory-level suspension and SRAM's premier Eagle XX1 AXS drivetrain.

IT'S YOU... JUST GOING FASTER...AND FURTHER

The Turbo Levo SL is effectively a Stumpjumper that lets you embark on ridiculously long adventures with no fear of bonking and helps you snag three laps of your favorite trail instead of just one. Looking for a ton of power and range? Check out our Levo and Kenevo models. Want a bike, on the other hand, that simply feels like you—a faster you, with the power to ride more trails, kind of you? That's Turbo Levo SL.

TUNE IT TO YOUR STYLE

By connecting with our Mission Control App, you can tune the SL 1.1 motor to your riding style, record rides, and monitor the battery. The motor even has a built-in power meter that transmits to any ANT+ head unit. Don't want to connect? No worries—the simple Turbo Connect Unit (TCU) on the top tube gives you all the control you need to just climb on and ride all day.

• Lightweight, carbon Stumpjumper-inspired frame is pure ride quality and control.

• Ultra-smooth and lightweight SL 1.1 motor doubles your pedaling power.

• 150mm of suspension front and rear, courtesy of FOX's Factory 36 fork and DPX2 shock.

  • The Turbo Levo SL looks like a Stumpjumper and, out on the trail, feels like one too. That’s no mistake. We aimed to build a Stumpjumper with a bit more boost to it and that’s exactly what you get—a Sidearm chassis with just the right amount of front-to-rear stiffness and 150mm of smooth, custom-tuned FOX rear suspension. To top it all off, we constructed this Turbo Levo SL chassis entirely from our light-yet-strong FACT 11m carbon.

  • The lightweight SL 1.1 motor doubles your effort with as much as 240 watts of silent and powerful assistance to your pedals. The motor’s responsive torque curve delivers power perfectly in-tune with your normal riding cadence and leaves no resistance when you’re riding without power assistance.

  • Worried about running out of power? No problem. Turbo Levo SL eats up big miles and long days. And if you’re looking for even more miles, our included range extender boosts your range by another 50 percent. On top of all that, our Mission Control App can handle battery management automatically, ensuring your battery will last as long as you need it to.

  • Assist up to 20 mph / 32 km/h

Never tired

With it, you are often surprised : you ride back to home with the half of your bottle, you forget to put the engine, you are not tired and you want return to the forest because you have no ache or injury. Just a problem by comparison with TQ or Bosch, the noise of this very good engine...

Ride longer, further, and more often - you won't want to come home!

I'm coming off a carbon GT Zaskar MTB that I've had for a couple of years. I live close to a canyon, and would climb the canyon as often as possible, but sometimes I didn't have the time OR energy. I'd been thinking about an e-MTB, and did my research. My S-Works Levo SL is probably (no, definitely) the MOST FUN bike I have every owned - so much so, I actually don't want the ride to end.I find I use the assist only when I want or need it, and I've found myself climbing trails I used to walk before now. Power is smooth and solid, and the bike is light enough to make riding without power fun too! I may find myself upgrading some components down the road, but right now I find the bike extremely solid and well built. I highly recommend this ride.

Absolute Banger

Bought my s-works sl in March 2021. My previous e-bike was a big motor/battery bike by another brand which I wanted to change due to weight of the bike, constant range anxiety and it wasn't giving me the fitness workout I wanted. So I bought the sl...what a blast!! Range anxiety gone..the bike is super light for an e-bike, I can set the power assist in each mode so can get as much of a workout as I choose. The bike rides and handles superb, even on steep techy enduro sections....can tackle them at speed with confidence.. Equipment level on the s-works is awesome too 😎

Amazing tech and awesome ride.

I have never ridden as many miles on a mountainbike as I have with this baby. Best mountain bike out there. Solo rides are something you look forward to now not be afraid of going to far and running out of food and water when you explore new trails.

Game Changer!

This bike has made mountain biking fun again. I suffer from an autoimmune disease that has robbed my legs of power. Mountain biking is extremely important to me, but it was no longer fun; it was simply painful. Riding this bike is a game changer! I am able to climb with my friends (instead of them waiting), I still get a solid workout and most important to me, I can ride on consecutive days. It's a blast descending and confidence-inspiring. I can't wait for my next mountain bike vacation!

The right choice!

I like the balance of a great bike and motor assist. This bike allows me to get into shape at a pace that my body can handle at 57. My legs are not spent if I ride daily, back to back rides with 2000' of climb is doable. I can straddle the fence between emtb and mtb at my choosing and not dragging around a anchor as a penalty.

Changes to 2021 version may not be for everybody

Its a great bike, but with the change to 36 fork and Magura DH breaks now its more Enduro focus. I wish there would be a ""Levo SL XC"" instead of this ""Levo SL DH"". Change to SRAM XX1 Eagle AXS is great.
