The Turbo Vado 4.0 IGH Step-Through suits commuters and everyday riders who want an easy-access frame and full-power assist for daily trips between Kelowna neighbourhoods, errands, or hauling groceries and gear.

Yes — with 650b x 2.3" tyres, an 80mm suspension fork, and a long-range 710Wh battery, the Vado 4.0 IGH ST handles both daily commuting between Kelowna neighbourhoods and longer rides on mixed-surface routes like the Okanagan Rail Trail comfortably.

Specialized rates the Vado 4.0's 710Wh battery for up to 90 miles (145 km) or 6.5 hours in eco mode. Actual range depends on your assist level, rider weight, terrain, wind, and temperature — our team can walk you through the Specialized App's range optimization tools to help you plan longer rides.
