The Full Scoop on the Specialized Turbo Vado 4.0
Vado is the bike for everything from daily commutes to fast workouts to longer-than-planned adventures—an electric bike for life. The smoothest-riding e-Bike experience yet, Vado is designed to boldly take on the ever-changing landscape you’ll encounter as a daily rider, carry whatever you need it to, and keep you riding more often. The geometry provides the best position for everything from workouts to commutes while comfortably keeping your eyes on busy roads. The Vado encompasses the speed a road rider seeks and the maneuverability a mountain bike rider needs. The rider's position on the Vado instills confidence and, at the same time, optimizes the rider's ability to efficiently get from A to B.
