Jeremy McGrath Rides Specialized Turbo Levo

Share


One year ago, Jeremy McGrath had knee replacement surgery to address a long, nagging injury that was leftover from his highly decorated racing career. During his recovery process, McGrath relied heavily on his Specialized Turbo Levo and Turbo Levo SL mountain bikes to help him gain both strength and range of motion back. Make no mistake, however, as The King doesn’t use his pedal-assist MTBs only for rehab; he smashes them on a regular basis both before and after his surgery. Though pedal-assist mountain bikes are rapidly gaining popularity and acceptance, there still remains a misconception that riding one only involves twisting a throttle. As MC will explain, that couldn’t be further from the truth! We recently took an incredible trip with McGrath to Moab, Utah, where a large group of us all enjoyed the scenery and each other’s company while getting a great workout on Specialized Turbo Levos.
