Specialized Turbo Vado 3.0 Electric Hybrid Bike in Storm Grey

It's made to accommodate busy lives that are always in movement which is why they took the award-winning pedal-assist technology and accelerated it well into the future.

Beginning with the integrated Specialized 1.2 e motor the turbo vado proves itself as the ultimate city bike. The 1.2 e uses the same hardware as the 1.2 motor but it features a tune that prioritizes efficiency.

This means less peak torque and maximum output. Of course it still features a near-silent operating design with the custom rx street tune that takes the output and makes it the most usable for an urban environment.

Think of it this way: the more power you put out, the more power the motor puts out, and this makes accelerations from a standstill at say a traffic light both quick and efficient. The belt driven motor is also smooth silent and free of annoying vibrations.

And the max speed? 28mph.

For the vado 3.0 they've developed a custom Specialized u1-460 battery that seamlessly integrates into the frame, is lockable, and easily removable for simplified charging. In other words there's plenty of juice to take you to and from work, a trip to the grocery store, or even to that new cafe on the other side of the city.

The new wired turbo connect display (tcd-w) is the best way to view data on your turbo. It not only displays important ride metrics (speed, cadence, rider power, distance, battery level, time etc.) it also allows you to connect the latest version of the mission control app for an enhanced turbo experience. With the free app for ios and android phones you easily customize motor parameters control your range record/upload rides and perform basic system diagnosis.

To top off all of the innovative features, they've chosen a worry-free spec that features Shimano 9-speed components, hydraulic disc brakes, front/rear lights, and fender & rack mounts.

Key Features:

• The Turbo Vado features a lightweight alloy frame that’s been designed with our Fitness/Transportation Geometry.
• The Turbo Vado’s Specialized 1.2 E motor emphasizes efficiency and range. We also fully integrated it with the frame, and it's been custom-tuned for city riding. It intuitively reacts to the force of your pedaling, so the harder you pedal, the more power it delivers. And with an internal belt drive design, it does this without added vibration for the smoothest and most silent ride possible.
• We made the custom 460 Wh battery to be fully integrated with the frame, removable for easy charging, and lockable for added security. It communicates with the display and has multiple modes to maximize the overall efficiency and range. For range estimates based upon a variety of variables, please refer to our Turbo Range Calculator.
