Product Details

Icon

The Vado S redefines the art of everyday riding as the lightest and most comfortable S-Pedelec in its class. It’s crafted to elevate every errand, every adventure, and every commute in between. Designed with thoughtful innovation and unmatched versatility, the Vado S IGH makes every ride feel natural, effortless—and extraordinary.

What truly sets the Vado S IGH apart is its custom-tuned Specialized 2.2 motor, engineered to deliver an exceptionally natural ride feel while providing powerful assistance when you need it. Specialized Turbo technology amplifies your pedal input for smooth, confident acceleration, making every surge of torque feels supernatural. Connected to the Specialized app, the motor becomes your personalized performance system, tuned precisely to your riding style.

  • Lightest in its class: No other S-Pedelec on the market—equipped with a belt drive, seamless automatic shifting, and suspension—achieves a lighter weight.

  • Unmatched comfort: An optimized body position, suspended seatpost, and high-volume tires combine to turn even the roughest roads into smooth, enjoyable journeys.

  • Commute-ready: Outfitted with a premium display, DRYTECH fenders, a robust rear HD rack, and powerful integrated front (1000-lumen) and rear LED lights, the Vado S ensures you’re ready for every ride. Additional thoughtful touches include a horn button, rear-view mirror, license plate attachment, and special tires designed specifically for S-Pedelec class standards.

  • Smarter, safer riding: The integrated Garmin radar sensor alerts you to approaching vehicles, while the Turbo System Lock protects your bike with advanced anti-theft security. A removable and lockable battery makes charging effortless wherever you are.

  • Performance that adapts to you: Enviolo AUTOMATiQ shifting technology delivers seamless gear transitions, intelligently adjusting cadence to match your preferred pedal pace—so you can simply "set it and forget it."
