Specialized Turbo Vado 5.0 Step-Through Electric Hybrid Bike in California Sunshine

The Specialized Turbo Vado 5.0 Step-Through is a high-performance electric hybrid bike built around one idea: getting you where you're going with an unmatched combination of speed, reliability, and confidence. Load it up, jump on and go, commute to work, or ride to the gym. The Vado's full power and impressive range will sort the A to B, no fuss.

As a Specialized electric hybrid, the Vado has everything you need for e-powered transport. Balanced handling, superior comfort, and a step-through frame that makes mounting and dismounting effortless in traffic or at the lights. This is a true class leader of its type.

• TURBO - The heart of the Specialized Vado 5.0 e-bike is its Turbo technology, an advanced and fully integrated electric system that delivers an unequalled combination of power, natural feel, anti-theft functions, training tips, and a full-function bike computer.
  
  
• POWERFUL - It's you, just faster. The Turbo Full Power system senses the force you apply to the pedals and naturally quadruples it, making any hill or destination feel manageable. Literally no sweat.
  
  
• COMFORTABLE AND CONFIDENT - Body position and handling are optimised to deliver unsurpassed riding comfort and control. Powerful hydraulic disc brakes rein in your speed, while larger tyres provide maximum traction for turning and stopping.
  
  
• SMOOTH - Stay comfortable in the saddle with an 80mm front suspension fork, higher volume tyres, and a plush suspension seatpost that irons out harsh bumps from A to B.
  
  
• SECURE - The Vado has anti-theft lock built right into the bike. Disable the motor with a press of a button, so nobody can turn it on without your phone connected to the Specialized app or your personalised PIN. The battery locks into the frame or comes out easily when you need it. And if anyone tries to move the bike, an alarm will sound. Beat it, thieves.
  
  
• TURBO FULL POWER 2.2 MOTOR AND 710WH BATTERY - A smooth, seamless, and shockingly quiet amplification of your efforts, up to 28 mph. The integrated controller responds to your pedal inputs with an incredibly natural feel.
  
  
• MASTERMIND AND SPECIALIZED APP - The MasterMind display shows all relevant ride info and lets you tune support levels in real time. It connects seamlessly with the Specialized app for range optimisation, advanced tuning, and on-ride diagnostics.
  
  
• PROVEN SMOOTH EFFICIENCY - Specialized's custom testing mechanism analyses bumps at even the smallest frequency to sharpen comfort and vision. Paired with a suspended seatpost, higher volume tyres, and an 80mm suspension fork, it flattens the road before your eyes.
  
  
• TURBO SYSTEM LOCK - Use the Specialized app to disable the motor and activate the motion sensor alarm. Once locked, only the owner can bring it back to life.
  
  
• GARMIN RADAR - An integrated Garmin Radar sensor alerts you when traffic is approaching from behind, detecting vehicles up to 140 metres away. MasterMind delivers a visual, audible, and haptic alert with each vehicle's relative distance and speed.
  
  
• FULLY INTEGRATED REMOVABLE AND LOCKABLE DOWNTUBE BATTERY - Easy to charge, easy to secure.
  
  
• FULLY EQUIPPED - DRYTECH mudguards, LED front and rear lights, and a 27kg capacity HD rear rack that's compatible with child bike seats. The bike is also rated to pull a thru-axle trailer.
  
  
• LONG RANGE - As a long-range hybrid e-bike, the Vado goes up to 75 miles (120 km) or 5.5 hours on a single charge in eco mode, making it one of the most capable step-through commuter electric bikes on the market for UK riders who cover serious distances day to day.
