Specialized has always supported bicycle commuting, and with the Turbo Vado, they saw an opportunity to include some serious fun into your daily ride. With its award-winning pedal-assist technology, Specialized provides you with enough assistance to melt climbs, cruise with ease, and navigate stop-and-go streets without breaking a sweat. Add in their rack system, lights, and the smoothest power delivery on the market, and you have a pedal-assist bike that is far more than just a commuter.
The Turbo Vado SL is the top-of-the-line commuter from Specialized. It features a massive 320 Wh battery that gives you enough range to fearlessly ride in turbo mode all the time. Of course, you can dial it back and extend your range even farther if you have a longer commute. The Specialized SL 1.1 lightweight motor is incredibly efficient.
