Vado is the vehicle 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.
Redesigned geometry puts you in the best position for everything from workouts to commutes while comfortably keeping your eyes on busy roads. We took learnings from 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 power from A to B.
- Turbo Full Power 2.0 motor and 710Wh battery offer an unparalleled riding experience, providing a smooth, seamless, and shockingly quiet amplification of your efforts, up to 28 mph. The integrated controller responds to your pedal inputs resulting in intuitive amplification of your efforts with an incredibly natural feel.
- MasterMind and Mission Control - The MasterMind display reveals all relevant info about your ride, allows real-time tuning of support levels, and enables over-the-air updates so that your bike gets better over time. MasterMind seamlessly integrates with the Mission Control app for range optimization tools, advanced tuning, on-ride diagnostics, and more.
- 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 Mission Control 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
This bike features an E5 aluminum frame equipped with a bottom bracket motor mount, a fully integrated and lockable downtube battery, internal cable routing, and mounts for both a lock and a front rack. The fork is an SR Suntour MobieA32 with 80mm of travel, lockout, fender mounts, and an integrated light mount. Steering is handled by a Specialized Flowset stem made of 3D-forged alloy with a 20-degree rise and a 31.8mm clamp, paired with Specialized alloy handlebars that offer a 15-degree backsweep, a 46mm rise, and a 31.8mm diameter. The grips are Specialized Body Geometry Contour lock-ons for added comfort and control.
Braking is managed by SRAM Level hydraulic disc brakes with 2-piston calipers and 180mm 6-bolt rotors both front and rear. Shifting is provided by an SRAM NX 11-speed trigger shifter and derailleur, with power delivered via a KMC e11S 11-speed chain and an SRAM PG-1130 11-speed cassette offering an 11-42t range. The drivetrain includes custom alloy forged crankarms and a Praxis 48T chainring with a 104BCD. Pedals are Specialized Commuter models with grip tape and reflectors.
The wheels consist of 650b double-wall alloy rims with 32 spokes, matched to Specialized alloy disc hubs with sealed cartridge bearings and thru-axles: 15x100mm in the front and 12x148mm in the rear. The bike rolls on Pathfinder Sport Reflect 650Bx2.3 tires with Schrader inner tubes and 40mm valves. Spokes are sourced from DT Swiss Industry for added reliability.
The saddle is a Rivo Sport with steel rails and a 155mm width, mounted on a spring suspension alloy seatpost offering 40mm of travel, a 30.9mm diameter, and a 2-bolt clamp with a 34.9mm sleeve. A bolt-type alloy seat binder secures the post.
Powering the bike is the Specialized 2.0 custom-tuned motor delivering 70Nm of torque and a nominal 250W. The system is managed via the MasterMind TCD with a handlebar remote, featuring a built-in anti-theft function, Bluetooth® connectivity, and customizable display pages. Energy is stored in a Specialized U2-710 battery with an alloy casing and a state of charge display, offering 710Wh capacity. Charging is handled by a custom 42V4A charger with a Rosenberger plug and a 100–240V input range. A custom wiring harness connects the system.
