Best Commuter E-Bike | Specialized Vado SL Review

The Vado SL is an urban bike, built for city living, unlike any other. The American manufacturer Specialized built this durable bike to add to generation of super light electric city bikes. Weighing in at just over 30 lbs, the Vado SL electric bike is lighter than many comparable non-electric bikes in its class. The ultralight frame, fork and wheels, plus smart use of materials in the motor and batteries, makes this bike one of a kind!
The Vado SL is built on the Specialized SL mid drive motor, an in-frame performance battery, with optional range extender batteries, console displays and the subscription-free Mission Control smartphone app. Available fully equipped with lights and fenders.

I have the Turbo Vado SL and the battery assistance does not cut off til 28 mph !

[@HALFLIFEVIDEO]

Great to hear that you're loving your Vado!

[@Martin_HD28]

This guy doesn't know his own bike. This is a class 3 ebike and will assist up to 28 mph

[@HALFLIFEVIDEO]

Thank you Martin for the correction!

Much as I hate a slick sales guy, he is terrible! I'm interested in the bike but he just planted more seeds of doubt than convinced me it was the one. Cagey, evasive, distracting, uncertain. E.g. If someone asks you the range, just tell them, tell them with a relateable anecdote, and make it true!
- So whats the range?
- i'm a big guy and i did a 60 mile round trip last weekend, no problem.
- It feels light.
- Sure is. Weighs in under X kilos. Lightest ebike on the floor.
Next question!

[@HALFLIFEVIDEO]

Lol - not sure which of us is the slick sales guy here but I thought I'd add more color. The e-Bikes do provide a range -- however -- it depends materially upon the weight of the rider and the terrain. Hence - the less than definitive answer. That said - we'll continue to try to do better videos. Thank you for your comment and I'm glad the Vado SL has worked out well for you.

The battery only takes 3 hours for a full charge from completely dead !

[@HALFLIFEVIDEO]

Pretty darn good right! Thanks for checking out the video.

@@HALFLIFEVIDEO I have a few videos on my channel of the Vado hitting some gravel

[@billyrock8305]
