General; Differentiators - Specialized Turbo COMO SL Manual

MODEL OVERVIEW

GENERAL

Knowing the key Rider Benefits helps sales staff to lead targeted customer conversations with potential Como SL riders.
It enables everyone to:
• Tell a compelling product story in a short amount of time
• Quickly summarize the unique sales propositions (USPs)
• Choose and emphasize particular WHAT/HOW aspects, based on rider interest and motivation
Once you know what matters most to the individual rider, you can always go into detail, using the deeper layers of product
knowledge as laid out here.
• Family features Como SL 5.0 and 4.0 models with identical aluminum frames in frame sizes S, M and L
• Como SL geometry puts Riders in a relaxed position to maximize comfort and control
• All Como SLs are fully equipped models (front & rear rack, fenders, lights, kickstand)
• Both models feature internal gear hubs
• 3 color options per model (market-specific)
• All Como SL bikes feature the identical Turbo SL Technology system
• No model features a wired remote (modes are switched via TCU)
Notes: the technical reason is that the remote connector does not fit through the handlebar/stem unit;
also, the intention is to keep the bike as simple as possible, start the bike and ride
• All models come stock with a TCD mount, but only 5.0 models ship with the TCD itself
• Range Extender is compatible (Road cable required: 98920-5655: RE-CABLE 220MM)
