When life keeps you constantly on the move, juggling tasks and racing against the clock, the Turbo Vado 3.0 Step-Through Electric Bike becomes your ultimate companion. Crafted to seamlessly fit into the bustling rhythm of urban life, this bike embodies Specialized's pioneering pedal-assist technology, catapulting it into the future.

Powered by the integrated Specialized 1.2 E motor, the Turbo Vado emerges as the quintessential city bike. Sharing the hardware of the 1.2 motor, it boasts a tune focused on efficiency, delivering less peak torque but maximum output. Engineered with a near-silent operation and a Custom Rx Street Tune, this motor ensures optimal usability in urban settings. Accelerating swiftly from standstills, it offers a seamless and efficient ride experience, with the belt-driven motor providing smooth, silent propulsion, free from irritating vibrations. It's designed to keep pace with your urban hustle.

Custom-designed for the Turbo Vado 3.0, the Specialized U1-460 battery seamlessly integrates into the frame, offering ample power for daily commutes, grocery runs, or leisurely rides to your favourite café across town. Easily removable for charging and lockable for security, this battery ensures you're never left stranded. For precise range estimates, consult the Specialized Turbo Range Calculator.

Equipped with the new wired Turbo Connect Display (TCD-w), the Turbo Vado provides essential ride metrics and seamlessly integrates with the Mission Control App for an enhanced riding experience. With the app, available for iOS and Android, you can customise motor parameters, control your range, record rides, and diagnose system issues.

Completing the package is a worry-free spec featuring Shimano 9-speed components, hydraulic disc brakes, racks, front and rear lights, and mudguards, ensuring a reliable and enjoyable ride every time.

  • Built on an alloy frame that's lightweight and easy to mount and dismount, the Turbo Vado offers unparalleled convenience and comfort.
  • Driven by the Specialized 1.2 E motor, the Turbo Vado prioritizes efficiency and range, delivering power in response to your pedaling force, all while maintaining a smooth and silent ride.
  • The custom 460 Wh battery, fully integrated into the frame, is easily removable for charging and lockable for security. Communicating seamlessly with the display, it maximises efficiency and range for uninterrupted urban adventures. For precise range estimates, refer to the Specialized Turbo Range Calculator.
