Nothing delivers more power, speed, and range at such lightweight than Turbo Vado SL 2 Carbon. It’s a premium, performance machine carefully engineered to make fitness fun, and your commute electric. With a carbon frame inspired by the best bike racers in the world, Future Shock for an ultra-smooth ride, an ergonomic position for telepathic handling, and a super light electric motor with supernatural power, the bike you’ve been dreaming about is here.

We took everything learned engineering the highest performing bikes in the world and created the Vado SL 2 Carbon LTD. It’s stunning graphic represents 50 years of innovation.
