Specialized Turbo Vado 4.0 IGH 2026

The Turbo Vado is a fast, reliable and safe e-bike that allows you to carry lots of things.

Use it to go to work or to the gym; it will take you wherever you want to go in no time. The speed at which the motor stops assisting may vary depending on the country, in accordance with local legislation. This may affect the range: a higher speed limit will result in a shorter range.

Turbo
Turbo technology is at the heart of the Vado. An advanced, integrated e-bike system that is powerful, provides natural pedalling assistance, has anti-theft features and a multifunctional display.

Powerful
It's you, only faster. The Turbo Full Power system amplifies your pedalling effort fourfold. Climbs will seem to disappear as if by magic.

Comfort and confidence
The riding position and handling ensure unparalleled comfort, perfect control and maximum confidence. Powerful disc brakes allow you to brake even when pedalling at speed, while wide tyres provide maximum traction when cornering. The 80mm travel suspension fork absorbs vibrations and small bumps.

Security
You can disable the motor so that no one can reactivate it without your phone with the Specialised App or your personal PIN. If someone tries to move your bike, an alarm will sound. For added protection, lock the battery to the bike or take it with you.

Features

• 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 Specialized app - The MasterMind display reveals all relevant info about your ride and allows real-time tuning of support levels. MasterMind seamlessly integrates with the Specialized app for range optimization tools, advanced tuning, on-ride diagnostics, and more.
• The stepless shifting enviolo City Internal Gear Hub (IGH) features a specifically designed internal gear hub and matching controller.
