The Specialized Turbo Tero 4.0 EQ is a feature-complete hardtail cross country electric mountain bike outfitted with outstanding fenders, rear rack, and integrated lights available in four frame sizes and three trim levels (3.0, 4.0, 5.0). Capable as a commuting platform and light off-road machine thanks to knobby 29er tires and high-end hydraulic brakes. Excellent weight distribution and electronics integration. Lightweight, smooth, responsive Brose motor (custom made with Specialized) offers up 70nm of torque and is highly tunable with Mission Control smartphone app. Internally routed cables stay out of the way and look great. Outstanding battery pack shape and mounting design, there's no need for a separate cover that adds weight and complexity, removal feels safe despite exiting downwards from the downtube. Magnetic charging interface is convenient and durable, fast charger is compact and capable. TCD2 MasterMind color display can be dimmed, beeps and haptics can be disabled, you can even customize readouts or remove screens. Above-average suspension fork with 110mm travel, compression, lockout, preload, and rebound adjustability. High-visibility reflective sticker and integrated lights (which can be turned off) keep you safe. USB-C charging port on display helps maintain portable electronics. Dropper seat post makes the bike approachable and Body Geometry touch points feel great (to me). Pointy kickstand, less immediate power from standstill, front fender that clips curbs and bike racks, high price, limited availability, no equipped models in North America are the drawbacks.

That app is really nice. My friend has a bike that assist 1 is not enough and 2 a bit too much for bike paths but he cant' change each assist level. This could be really handy depending on your riding conditions. That needing to get it going a little before it kicks in would be a deal breaker for me. Rode a Trek Powerfly recently and was so taken by how fast it took off from a stop that a throttle wasn't needed. My current bike is somewhere in the middle .

Same deal with our batteries on the Vado 4s and the Tero3 but you get used to it. I installed 780 mm MTB bars on my Vado which is equipped very similar to the Tero 4.0 but two piston brakes that work great. I installed a dropper and PNW grips XL just like my MTB. These bike are so well built and so fun. Yours looks great, love the color.

So yeah, I only have one non-electric bike now ;) how about you?!

Thank you for this amazing review with all the detailed and thorough information. I was waiting for you to discuss range and was a little surprised that you didn’t even touch on it. I know that range varies a lot depending on riding style but there’s always a way to approach it. I would like to know when purchasing an E bike, what kind of trips can I go on ? How far will the battery take me? Everybody doesn’t just ride their bike to work. Some people go on trips and adventures :-) I would also like to know, how much help am I going to get with Hills? There must be a way to discuss this?

This is the same question I was asking people 3 years ago, and they said: it depends. After riding my Levo for 3 years, I say: it depends. 😅 I did 1500 elevation meters and an 80 km range with the tuned-down eco mode in the summer, or barely a 30 km range and 600 elevation meters with always Turbo mode, low cadence in winter.

6:30 the 'fender' or mud guard as we call them isn't fitted correctly. It should be shifted at LEAST 6" further forward over the front tyre. AS-Is it will barely function in terms of not splattering you with mud.
@ElectricBikeReview
@ElectricBikeReview 2 жыл бұрын
Hmm, I received it this way but did bang the fender on steps when testing it out. Perhaps it could have shifted up, but your assertion that it should be 6” further forward strikes me as incorrect. The fender is designed to route water forward and then out the sides. The rear portion extends very far down (the end part being rubberized plastic and flexible). You could perform a KZfaq search for specialized drytech flextender and watch their official videos to compare with this setup. I honestly think it’s setup correctly here or 95% correct.

I've found that Specialized bikes are more expensive than many other brands when pricing out similar bikes. For less money I'd rather purchase a Giant Stance E+ EX, which comes with a full suspension, rack, fenders, and lights.....and it's cheaper than the bike you're reviewing. I like Specialized products, but I noticed in Canada they've increased their prices again for 2022.

It’s actually incredibly expensive in Vancouver and housing has remains out of reach for a lot of us. I rent a room in someone else’s house and my girlfriend (an engineer with two masters degrees) rents a single room apartment downtown near her job. The most expensive thing I own is a used car that just got totaled by a mail truck this past weekend. It was parked at the time, I think the truck was struggling due to snow and clipped the side and front. Thanks for the props about my appearance, I do try to look professional when doing the review videos! Perhaps you’ve noticed that I wear the same outfits and have the same helmet for many years years. Specialized didn’t pay me for this, nor are they a sponsor, and the bike was a loaner leftover from a photo shoot in Europe. I’m glad they shared it so I could check out their new systems!

I respect your opinion, but I disagree. For me a chain feels tighter and faster. I also prefer a cassette to an internally geared hub or CVT for weight savings and crisp shifting… to me, it’s like driving a light fast car with a manual transmission, and I prefer that for recreational cycling. Since this particular ebike spans utility and sport, I would be happy with either drivetrain, but I wanted to push back and just express how I see it :)

The 3.0 models cost less, I think the higher price reflects the nicer drivetrain, brakes, suspension fork, battery, and motor upgrade. Hardtails can be preferred when using a rear rack because they increase strength and stiffness while keeping weight in check. I personally really like full suspension, but this bike felt good enough for urban with a bit of light trail riding with the 29ers and RockShox fork.

Yeah, there’s a more expensive version with upgraded brakes, drivetrain, suspension, and motor… but also a more affordable one called the 3.0 with a smaller battery and some other downgrades. That one comes in a mid-step frame option as well as high step: this particular bike in the review is their mid tier with the “equipped” accessories: rack, fenders, and lights.

I dont get the whole "not blinding oncoming traffic" worry. As a long time driver I can tell you other cars have bright lights and they care more about seeing than blinding you. I have supernova lights on my bike and I'm certainly not aiming it at the ground to "not blind." I aim my light straight ahead for best visibility. Of course I don't drive with my high beams on, unless it's really dark but normal lights aren't blinding drivers.

I hear you, perhaps it’s a point I can stress less in the future. I have seen it as a sign of quality and safety. Not all cheap lights for bikes are designed this way… like many of the rubber band style lights sold on Amazon with basic LEDs and no lens system. They are cheap but have drawbacks. I’m trying to praise what I see as an improved design here, and I have noticed that it’s a very popular and even regulated thing in Europe for bicycles.

Cost more than both my wife’s cars put together. I’d get killed for this bike where I live.

Yeah, I love the choices they made and appreciate the effort to improve the technology and create something that’s better and more useful and comfortable vs combining existing tech. Sure it’s t’s pricy, but there’s a range of builds and even frame types to suit different needs. Maybe there’s no perfect ebike for everyone, but to me this build does a lot right and I want to celebrate that.

I guess I enjoy all types of ebikes and appreciate the choice of having a throttle… but I don’t seek out one Class when doing reviews. I try to cover a variety of types and appreciate what they offer.

Hi Frankie, this model is sold globally but unfortunately it sounds like only Europe is getting the EQ “equipped” version with fenders, lights, and rear rack. Hopefully Specialized will make those parts available aftermarket in North America, because they’re done so well!
