CREO SL vs MT LEMMON

We have a long history of developing the world's highest performing road bikes. Tarmac, Venge, Roubaix, Allez, Diverge—each one dominates their respective category, featuring the best technologies in the industry. And while that's a tough palmarès to follow, the Turbo Creo SL redefines e-road bike performance. It's lightweight, smooth, capable, and lively—all with the power to flatten mountains, laugh at headwinds, and go farther than you ever thought possible. It's you, only faster.

Like all of our S-Works bikes, the S-Works Turbo Creo SL is our pinnacle build. The FACT 11r chassis and Future Shock 2.0 with a hydraulic damper is dressed with a 1x build that includes SRAM Red AXS eTap, a SRAM XX1 Eagle rear derailleur, and a 10-50t cassette for an incredible gear range. It rolls on Roval Terra CLX Disc carbon wheels and 30mm S-Works Turbo tires. And to finish off the build, we've included our S-Works Carbon Hover bars, an S-Works Future Stem, and a Body Geometry S-Works Power saddle. We're throwing in a range extender too, because you're never going to want to stop riding this bike.

  • The Creo SL is the lightest e-bike in its class—literally kilograms lighter than the competition. Not only does the lightweight and stiff FACT 11r carbon frame inspire dancing on the pedals and diving into corners, but it also reduces overall system weight and increases the range.
  • The lightweight SL 1.1 motor doubles your effort with as much as 240 watts of silent and powerful assistance to amplify your ride. The motor’s responsive torque curve delivers power perfectly in-tune with your normal riding cadence and leaves no resistance when riding unassisted.
  • Battery anxiety? Not on the Creo SL. With up to 80 miles of range from the internal battery, the Creo SL eats up big miles and long days. Our included range extender provides up to 40 additional miles of mountain-flattening power.
  • By connecting with our Mission Control App, you're able to tune the SL 1.1 motor to your riding style, record rides, and monitor the battery. The app can handle battery management automatically too, ensuring the battery will last as long as you need it to. The motor even has a built-in power meter that transmits to any ANT+ head unit. Don’t want to connect? No worries— the Turbo Connect Unit (TCU) on the top tube gives you all the control you need to ride.
  • With the Future Shock 2.0, you'll feel a reduction in fatigue and an increase in speed, no matter the terrain. The 2.0 iteration gives you more control via a knob atop the stem. This knob adjusts compression from fully-open to stiff, while hydraulically-damped internals control rebound. The new Smooth Boot, top cap, and Future Stem also enhance the aesthetic, so you get a clean transition from head tube to stem.
  • We’ve learned there can be more difference between two male cyclists than between a male and female. Gender alone doesn’t provide enough data to specialize. It means that separating bikes as male or female is arbitrary and outdated. With this in mind, we've developed a geometry that's best-fit for all riders—one that's comfortable, snappy, and handles like a dream.

Super flexible racing machine

I’ve now had my SWorks Creo for over a month, after riding a SWorks Tarmac SL6 for few years. The Creo is an amazing piece of kit, well integrated, smooth and runs flawlessly. I do about 300-400km a week on it weather permitting in mountainous coastal Spain. It has enabled me to cycle up to any level. My capability on the Tarmac means I’m a reasonable club level cyclist averaging about 26kmph in the mountains and 30+ on the flat. With the Creo on level 1 I can ride with top club cyclists, on 2 with elite level and on 3 give MVP a run for his money on local KOMs. The range is extensive, up to 200km taking it reasonably conservatively with the range extender. I was concerned about peer group reaction, but so far it’s been positive. The biggest positive I can say is it makes you smile every time you ride it, it’s like your best day ever on the bike every day and that means for me it’s made cycling with anyone always very enjoyable; and isn’t that the point?

Time machine

I know there is no fountain of youth. But the S-Works Turbo Creo SL is the closest thing I have found. You can ride with your friends and leave the electric motor off and get the same workout as everyone else. But if you you are in your 60’s like me then you may occasionally find yourself at the end of the peloton with the risk of getting dropped. This new bike purchased this year has transformed my life. It has removed all anxiety that occurs with an approaching climb. The is no fear of lagging behind anymore. There are three levels to choose from. The lowest (eco) makes you feel 5 years younger. The middle level makes you feel 10 years younger and the highest level (turbo) makes you feel 20 years younger. A Time Machine.

Like being 20 years younger again

I am a 66 year old ~5000 mile a year rider. My lowering power output with age became much more noticeable in my sixties. This made some of my longer mountainous rides much less enjoyable and out of reach. The Creo makes it possible again to do these rides again in even better times. I ride with the same intensity on or off the Creo but the faster pace possible even in ECO mode tends to invigorate me to ride even harder.

2021 S-Works Turbo Creo SL - Amazing

Purchased S-Works Turbo Creo SL from Palm Springs Cyclery in September, 2020. I am in awe of the 2021 S-Works Turbo Creo SL. An amazingly well crafted engineering marvel. I cannot say enough superlatives about the staff at Palm Springs Cyclery, especially Matt, Scott and Tyler. They are professional, competent, and timely responsive. Matt is the best mechanic of the many bike shops I've utilized around the USA over several decades. Thank you, Chris (Owner) for putting together such a dream team.
