This is my 3rd e-bike and by far the best. I've owned a Stromer ST5 and a Stromer ST2, and as fast and powerful as they were, they were heavy and because they had a limited number dealers in Toronto, getting any service done or getting parts for them was nightmarish. I sold both and went with the Specialized Turbo Vado SL 5.0 because it delivered everything I needed, a fast lightweight e-bike that still made me put in some effort and yet had the battery range for my type of riding. Plus, since its Specialized, the quality is top notch and the ability to get service and parts is easy. Highly recommended.

I love my e-bike. It is just what I need. I have heart issues and have a hard time getting up hills, with the e-bike I can get up it without putting stress on my heart.

I have owned 7 eBikes, this is my go to bike for everything. Lightweight, versatile and beautiful to look at. Very stealth. Easy to ride. I have 3,500 miles on my bike and nothing has gone wrong with minimal maintenance. (I also own the Creo and a non electric road bike). I recommend this bike to anyone looking for an all round great bike for roads and gravel paths. Top class build, great styling.

Great and friendly service.. my bike was deliver in time. Your customer service should be the norm. I'm a bike mechanic. Many people come to me asking me what bike they should get. I feel confident recommending Specialized to every one. I think the quality of your product and your service is superior.

Recently $ my turbo Vado sl @ Kinetic Cycle. Fell in love with the brassy yellow frame while in showroom floor. I just after the first few strides knew in my riders heart that this was the one. It has speed and for a heavy rider was surprisingly smooth and did not endure any jarring on my joy ride. Every component to this point makes solid sense. The shifting was quick and decisive no matter ranging up or down. I do wish the peddle quality was better, however I feel they do this as most not unlike myself has a preference and will switch them out. I am geeking out on all the well thought out components they chose. This of course might give pause, correction or create feelings otherwise....only time and miles will define the truth of my decision to invest.
