Specialized Turbo Vado 5.0 IGH Electric Hybrid Bike

Specialized Turbo Vado 5.0 IGH Electric Hybrid Bike 2023

Utilising a Full Power 2.2 motor and a long-ranging battery, the Specialized Turbo Vado 5.0 IGH Electric Hybrid Bike grants exceptionally smooth and quiet pedalling assistance as the rider tackles the daily commute, fitness-inspired workouts or mixed-terrain weekend adventures. The consistent motor power delivery is complemented by the enviolo AUTOMATiQ Internal Gear Hub (IGH) that changes gear automatically based on preset cadence preferences to afford a fluid and composed riding experience over all topography.

Assistance is provided up to a maximum speed of 15.5 mph / 25 km/h and the motor's power level can be quickly altered via the MasterMind handlebar-mounted controller, with this unit also functioning as a display for on-the-fly ride metrics. The MasterMind device can be paired with the Mission Control app to carry out motor tuning and software updates and activate the Turbo System Lock anti-theft feature. Additionally, a Garmin Radar sensor is integrated into the MasterMind system to alert the rider of traffic approaching from behind.

A light but rugged aluminium frame accommodates the motor and battery within its silhouette and has been designed to afford plush levels of compliance over rough surfaces. The bumps are further tamed by the Rockshox suspension fork, suspension seatpost and big-volume tyres. Strong wheels are reliable, cut down maintenance time and are stopped by powerful hydraulic disc brakes. Included lights and mudguards complete the build, helping the riding continue through all weather conditions.
