PRODUCT DETAILS

PRODUCT DETAILS

Consider Vado your high-performance transportation bike, getting you where you’re going with an unmatched combination of speed, reliability, and confidence. Whether you load it up with your stuff, or jump on and go, commute to work, or ride to the gym, Vado’s full power and huge range will get you from ‘point A’ to ‘point B’ ASAP. The Specialized Vado has everything you need for e-powered transport. It brings a balanced nature to the way it handles and superior levels of comfort. This is a true class leader of its type. TURBO: The heart of the Vado is its Turbo technology, an advanced and integrated electric bike system that delivers an unequaled combination of power, natural feel, anti-theft functions, training tips, and a full-function bike computer. POWERFUL: It’s you, just faster — it’s 4x You. The Turbo Full Power system senses the force you apply to the pedals and naturally quadruples it for an experience that makes getting up any hill or to any destination no sweat. Literally. COMFORTABLE AND CONFIDENT: Body position and handling are optimized to deliver unsurpassed riding comfort, confidence, and control. Powerful hydraulic disc brakes reign in your speed, while larger tires provide maximum traction for turning and stopping. SMOOTH: Stay comfortable in the saddle with an 80mm front suspension fork, higher volume tires, and a plush suspension seat post that smooths harsh bumps from points A to B. SECURE: Vado has anti-theft lock built right into the bike. Prevent would-be bike thieves by disabling the motor with a press of a button so no one can turn on the motor without your phone connected to the Specialized app or your personalized pin. The Vado’s battery locks in the bike or can be easily taken with you. And if anyone tries to move your bike an alarm will sound. Beat it, thieves.

  • Turbo Full Power 2.2 motor and 710Wh battery offer an unparalleled riding experience, providing a smooth, seamless, and shockingly quiet amplification of your efforts, up to 28 mph. The integrated controller responds to your pedal inputs resulting in intuitive amplification of your efforts with an incredibly natural feel.
  • MasterMind and Specialized app - The MasterMind display reveals all relevant info about your ride and allows real-time tuning of support levels. MasterMind seamlessly integrates with the Specialized app for range optimization tools, advanced tuning, on-ride diagnostics, and more.
  • Proven Smooth Efficiency - We designed a custom testing mechanism to analyze bumps at even the smallest frequency to increase comfort and vision. That precision, paired with a suspended seatpost, higher volume tires, and an 80 mm suspension fork, will flatten roads before your eyes.
  • Turbo System Lock - Use the Specialized app to disable your bikes motor and activate the motion sensor alarm. Once locked, the motor cannot be enabled again except by the owner.
  • Garmin Radar - An integrated Garmin Radar sensor lets you know when traffic is coming up behind you. Garmins Radar technology can detect cars up to 140 meters away. MasterMind will give riders a visual, audible, and haptic alert of an approaching vehicles relative distance and rate of speed.
  • Fully Integrated Removable and Lockable Downtube Battery - Easy to charge, easy to secure.
  • Equipped with DRYTECH Fenders, LED front and rear lights, and 27kg capacity rear HD Rack. The rear rack is compatible with child bike seats, and the bike is also rated to pull a thru-axle trailer.

BATTERY SIZE:

710 Wh

Battery size is measured in Watt-Hours (Wh). A higher number means more battery capacity which, in general, will increase range!

TOP SPEED:

28 Mph

In the US, eBikes have a top motor speed of either 20mph or 28mph, depending on the model, before cutting out and relying entirely on rider input.

BATTERY RANGE:

75 Miles

The range of an eBike depends on many factors, including battery size, motor power, current assist mode, weather, terrain, and rider/cargo weight. Given all these factors, manufacturers tend to give the best possible range reading in ideal conditions like a warm day on a flat, paved surface with an “average” rider in the lowest assist mode. Actual milage may vary.

MOTOR POWER:

250 Watts
MOTOR POWER

Motor wattage is a measure of the amount of power the motor can output in normal operating conditions. This is almost always a 'nominal' or 'sustained' reading while the 'peak' output can be higher in short bursts.

EBIKE CLASSIFICATION:

Class 1

Pedal assist only, top speed of 20mph.

Class 2

Pedal assist and throttle, top speed of 20mph.

Class 3

Pedal assist only, top speed of 28mph OR pedal assist with a top speed of 28mph and a throttle with a top speed of 20mph.
