Specialized Turbo Vado 5.0 Step-Through Electric Hybrid Bike

Specialized Turbo Vado 5.0 Step-Through Electric Hybrid Bike 

Boasting incredible versatility, the Specialized Turbo Vado 5.0 Step-Through Electric Hybrid Bike is an ideal choice for the daily battle against city traffic, helping with a dedicated fitness drive or long mixed-terrain adventures at weekends. The bike's versatility is largely realised thanks to the Turbo Full Power motor and 710Wh battery combination that provide long-lasting, powerful and smooth pedalling assistance up to a maximum speed of 15.5 mph / 25 km/h. The level of motor assistance can be selected on the MasterMind handlebar-mounted unit that doubles up as a detailed display that shows a host of helpful ride metrics. Additionally, the MasterMind system integrates a Garmin Radar sensor that alerts the rider when traffic is approaching from behind.

The Mission Control app wirelessly links to the MasterMind controller to customised the motor's behaviour, run system diagnostics and perform software updates to keep the bike always running smoothly. Additionally, the Turbo System Lock anti-theft device can be activated via the app to disable the motor and turn on the motion sensor alarm.

A light and robust aluminium frame grants compliance over rough riding surfaces and neatly integrates the motor and battery into its silhouette. The step-through design of the frame facilitates quick getting on and off, and its revised geometry guarantees composed handling. A plush Rockshox suspension fork and a suspension seatpost improve comfort, while the robust wheels and high volume tyres ensure reliability and grip. Wide ratioed SRAM 11-speed gears ease passage over any topography, and hydraulic disc brakes perform flawlessly in any weather. The build is completed with included lights, rear rack and mudguards to aid the bike's performance within any riding scenario.
