E-bikes are convenient but often heavy. The Turbo Vado SL series significantly changed that perception.

The first thing that surprises you when you straddle it is the lightness of the bike. The handling is so natural you forget it has an assist unit and battery, and it's very nimble even when stationary.

Furthermore, this bike includes a genuine range extender, which costs over 50,000 yen new. This makes for a very attractive package, even for long-distance rides and touring.

If a regular cross bike isn't enough, but you want to avoid models that are as heavy as full-fledged e-bikes, this highly refined Specialized bike is strongly recommended.
