If you can characterize your life as on-the-go busy or not having enough time we made a bike for you—the Turbo Vado 3.0. It's made to accommodate busy lives that are always in movement which is why we took our award-winning pedal-assist technology and accelerated it well into the future. Beginning with the integrated Specialized 1.2 E motor the Turbo Vado proves itself as the ultimate city bike. The 1.2 E uses the same hardware as our 1.2 motor but it features a tune that prioritizes efficiency. This means less peak torque and maximum output. Of course it still features a near-silent operating design with our Custom Rx Street Tune that takes the output and makes it the most usable for an urban environment. Think of it this way: The more power you put out the more power the motor puts out and this makes accelerations from a standstill at say a traffic light both quick and efficient. The belt driven motor is also smooth silent and free of annoying vibrations. For the Vado 3.0 we developed a custom Specialized U1-460 battery that seamlessly integrates into the frame is lockable and easily removable for simplified charging. In other words there's plenty of juice to take you to and from work a trip to the grocery store or even to that new café on the other side of the city. If you wish to see exactly how far you can go on a charge have a look at our Turbo Range Calculator for more exact estimates. The new Turbo Connect Display (TCD) is the best way to view data on your Turbo. It not only displays basic ride metrics (speed cadence power battery level and time) but it also lets you toggle between modes. Its design meanwhile is rugged and clean and it has multiple mounting options for either road or mountain setups. As for the latest version of the Mission Control App you’ll find that it now has more features and is even more intuitive to use. It lets you custom-tune nearly every aspect of the bike with ease monitor your power usage control your range perform basic system diagnoses and record/upload rides. To top off all of the innovative features we chose a worry-free spec that features Shimano 9-speed components hydraulic disc brakes front/rear lights and fender & rack mounts. The Turbo Vado features a lightweight alloy frame that’s been designed with our Fitness/Transportation Geometry. The Turbo Vado’s Specialized 1.2 E motor emphasizes efficiency and range. We also fully integrated it with the frame and it's been custom-tuned for city riding. It intuitively reacts to the force of your pedaling so the harder you pedal the more power it delivers. And with an internal belt drive design it does this without added vibration for the smoothest and most silent ride possible. We made the custom 460 Wh battery to be fully integrated with the frame removable for easy charging and lockable for added security. It communicates with the display and has multiple modes to maximize the overall efficiency and range. For range estimates based upon a variety of variables please refer to our Turbo Range Calculator.
