2025 Specialized Turbo Kenevo SL 2 Expert Features
Slay more of the biggest trails like never before with the all-new Kenevo SL 2. Elevating the category-defining ride of our award-winning Enduro chassis, the Kenevo SL 2 gets unmatched amplification, class-leading efficiency, and super light weight from our Turbo SL 1.2 system.
ENGINEERED EFFICIENCY: The SL 1.2 is the most efficient e-bike system in the world, unlocking maximum range-to-weight. It delivers 33% more power (320 Watts) than its predecessor with a supernatural feel, while 43% more torque (50Nm) lets you ride more of the trails you crave. Sure, the SL 1.2 system makes a big statement, but you won’t hear it because it’s also the quietest e-bike system in the world.
RIDE DYNAMICS: Kenevo SL 2’s 170mm of Enduro-inspired travel is tuned to keep composure on small bumps to big impacts, yet still offers amazing pedal response and efficient power delivery. A generous cockpit centers you on the bike, above 29” wheels, optimizing traction and corner control. The low bottom bracket, slack head tube angle, and reduced fork offset keep things stable in the rough. With geometry finely tuned over 30 years of making full suspension bikes and proven on the global stage time and time again, you can be confident the feedback in rough terrain will be calm and stable.
GEOMETRY OF CONTROL: Kenevo SL 2’s geometry can be fine-tuned for however you ride. Six distinct geometry settings allow easy adjustment to hone performance in any terrain. Head angle can be set at 62.5, 63.5, or 64.5-degrees. Bottom bracket height can be fine-tuned up or down by 7mm.
MASTERMIND TCU: The MasterMind Turbo Control Unit (TCU) is our class-leading solution that allows you to control how you, your bike, motor, and battery all interact. It seamlessly connects system hardware, the Specialized App, and the rider. Monitor battery consumption and access the bar-mounted MicroTune for real-time power adjustments.
S-SIZING: S-Sizing is based on what matters—rider size and style, not inseam. Four sizes, all with similar headtube lengths and standover, allow you to choose the size that best suits your individual style. Smaller S-Size numbers are going to be nimble and more flickable, while bigger S-Sizes deliver more stability and a roomier ride.
At a Glance
- The Turbo Kenevo Super Light motor/controller system is a full integration of the bike’s SL 1.2 motor and 320Wh battery with a radically advanced and seamlessly integrated controller. The result is massive power delivered, up to 20mph/32kph, to get you to the top of your favorite descent with just half of the effort, and much faster, giving even more of the quality ride you yearn for, and more of it than ever before possible.
- Our next-generation MasterMind TCU is your information hub, with customizable display fields including the exact percentage of battery level, and features our all-new, bar-mounted MicroTune function to adjust power delivery in 10% increments, so you get exactly the support you need to experience precisely the ride you want.
- 29” wheels front and rear deliver a nimble ride that carves circles around other full-power e-MTBs. A generous cockpit centers you on the bike, optimizing traction and corner control. The low bottom bracket, slack headtube angle and reduced fork offset keep things stable in the rough.
