Meet the Vado SL, a super-light e-bike designed for versatility.

This e-bike is perfect for daily commutes through urban landscapes or faster workouts. Weighing 40% less than the full-power Vado, it offers unmatched ride quality, range, and power. Simply get on and go, whether you're going fast, far, or both.

The Vado SL comes equipped with everything needed to start riding immediately. Extra-bright, built-in lights enhance visibility in low-light areas. The MasterMind Turbo Control Unit (TCU) allows easy access to ride info on the go. Pathfinder tires provide excellent grip on or off pavement, and its featherweight status makes it ideal for city commuting and easy to transport.

The Vado SL's Turbo SL technology offers a lightweight, natural feel with anti-theft functions, training tips, and a full-function bike computer. Its Specialized 320Wh downtube battery, with optional Range Extender compatibility, allows for long-range rides. The premium lightweight E5 Aluminum frame and clean internal cable routing add to its sleek design.

Features:

  • Lightweight design for easy transport and nimble riding.
  • Optimized body position and handling for comfort and control.
  • Turbo SL technology for a natural riding feel and advanced features.
  • Specialized 320Wh battery with optional Range Extender for up to 120 miles.
  • Premium hydraulic disk brakes for maximum stopping power.
  • Integrated front and rear lighting for visibility.
