S-Works Turbo Levo G3

This off-road speed score leans toward efficient rolling, not downhill stability or comfort. It ends up here thanks to typical trail-width tires, wheel momentum that helps it carry speed between pedal strokes, and a high-end drivetrain that tends to feel crisp under load. Together, these choices shape rolling resistance and how lively the bike feels.

On steep roads, it comes in at 2.9/10. Within e-mountain bikes, it lands below average. For hill work, the easiest gear is very tall. In numbers, the low gear is roughly 28.1 gear inches. Compared with similar bikes, this low gear is easier than about ~8% of them. “Gear inches” sounds nerdy, but it’s just a quick way to describe how easy your lowest gear is to turn uphill. Lower usually means easier. The motor support helps you keep rolling when the slope kicks up. This is happiest on flatter terrain; steep stuff will feel demanding. Real-world feel depends on setup and size, and some details aren’t always listed, so this is best seen as a well-informed estimate.

Suspension rating is 8/10 — “High-impact ready”. This level is aimed at repeated impacts and rougher terrain, keeping the bike more settled at speed. With suspension in the front and rear, the bike can stay more settled through repeated bumps. This is meant for rougher terrain where repeated impacts demand stable wheel tracking.

Balanced fit - a versatile position for long rides and faster efforts. This is mainly because the front end is very small, with ~33 mm of saddle-to-bar drop, with a extreme stretch forward at ~653 mm. Plan for roughly 26 degrees of lean. Front-end spacers are estimated around 15 mm.

That is why we tag it Moderately Adjustable. This rating is mainly driven by the parts that affect adjustability: A modular front-end gives more freedom to change stem length or bar width, Internal routing is a mild hit to swap-and-go adjustability. Plus, Seatpost info looks fairly neutral, so most fit change comes from cockpit choices.

Ride comfort is 8.3/10 — on a real ride it feels very smooth. It’s tagged Balanced for Enduro — it feels very smooth overall, but it’s on the firmer end compared with the plushest Enduro builds. The posture is forward, attacking (posture 7/10), which loads the front wheel, which feels great for control but a bit more direct through the bars.

Against comparable bikes, this comes out looking overpriced. The value score is 1–10. Higher means better value for money; lower means the price is high for what you get. Uses MSRP as a baseline; real-world prices can be lower (discounts can change the value). On the spec comparison, it sits roughly 84% above what similar builds typically cost. In its peer group, it’s one of the pricier listings, beating only about 4% of them. Quick reference: €14.000 listed versus about €7.628 for a comparable build. Overall, you can likely find better value elsewhere.

This setup suits steeper, rockier terrain and harder hits. It has about 150 mm of suspension travel (how much it absorbs bumps), which helps on rough, technical trails. Overall, the setup matches this surface range well.
