Introducing the Specialized Turbo Vado 3.0 IGH Active Electric Bike – your ticket to turbocharged transportation with a side of exhilaration! Imagine this as your trusty steed, fueled by lightning bolts and ready to whisk you away with a dash of flair, a sprinkle of reliability, and a hearty dose of confidence. Whether you're packing your gear or taking a spontaneous leap onto the saddle, the Vado is your magical carpet to work, the gym, or wherever 'point B' calls you. This bike’s got the mojo to turn 'point A' to 'point B' in record time!
Now, let's talk gear shifting – because the Vado's stepless shifting enviolo City Internal Gear Hub is basically your personal DJ for the ride. It's like tweaking the radio volume, only instead, you're dialing in the perfect gear harmony. This way, you can savor the sights and conquer traffic without playing gear-guessing games.
Comfort and coolness? Oh, the Vado's got that in spades! Picture yourself gliding on an 80mm front suspension fork, cushioned by cushy suspension tires and a seat post that smoothens bumps as if they were mere whispers. You'll feel like royalty on a cloud – or, well, at least the king or queen of your commute.
Now, brace yourself for the "Zoom Zoom" part – Turbo technology, the heartthrob of the Vado's ride. It's like having a turbo booster, but for your bike. With the Turbo Full Power system, it's like multiplying yourself by four (yes, you read that right) to conquer hills without breaking a sweat – unless it's from sheer excitement.
And let's talk security, shall we? The Vado’s not just a bike; it's a fortress on wheels. You've got an anti-theft lock baked right into it. Sneaky thieves won't stand a chance as you effortlessly lock down the motor with a tap on your phone, and an alarm that shouts, "Nice try!" if anyone even thinks about tampering with your two-wheeled treasure.
Remember, though, speed demons, the motor's dance moves might be dictated by local laws, so keep that in mind if you're feeling the need for speed. But no worries – less speed might just mean more miles to enjoy the ride.
The Specialized Turbo Vado 3.0 IGH Active Electric Bike – the chariot of champions, the turbocharger of commutes, and your golden ticket to ride in style. Get ready to pedal-smash your way through cityscapes, turning heads and setting trends as you go!
Features:
- Turbo Full Power 2.0E motor and 530Wh battery offer an unparalleled riding experience, providing a smooth, seamless, and shockingly quiet amplification of your efforts, up to 20 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.
- The stepless shifting enviolo City Internal Gear Hub (IGH) features a specifically designed internal gear hub and matching controller. The manual stepless technology is as simple as adjusting the volume on a radio. This allows riders to focus on the important aspects of a bike ride such as traffic or scenery.
- 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 bike’s motor and activate the motion sensor alarm. Once locked, the motor cannot be enabled again except by the owner.
- 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.
- Long-Range - With a ride-anywhere range, go up to 56 miles (90 km) or 4 hours on a single charge (eco mode).
