    2020 Turbo Vado 3.0: Four-Month Update

    Can someone share where the cadence values are accessed? I don't see this on the Mission Control app. Thank you....

    Seatpost is next! I’m leaning towards that Kinetic. First I need to stop spending money :)

    This is great feedback on the cadence. I never really considered this. I will give it a try!

    2020 Turbo Vado 3.0: Four-Month Update

    Hey guys! Thought I'd drop in with a follow-up after a few months owning this Vado 3.0. Let me just say, when I bought the bike back in February, I had a pretty good idea it was going to be one of the better things I ever did for myself. But I had no idea it would end up a kind of life...

    2020 Turbo Vado - Early Impressions!

    I'll second that opinion - so far my longest ride is about 20 miles, and on a full charge there's maybe 55 or 60% battery left. No issues. I feel like 40 miles is doable - although I have not done it yet, to be honest. But 20 miles is a good bike ride for me! For the record, I love my 3.0 - it...

    2020 Turbo Vado - Early Impressions!

    Hey guys - well, it's been about two weeks since I started this thread, and the only issue I've run into so far is the NJ winter - it has been COLD. Every time the temp gets above 45F, I am on this bike. I love, love, love this thing. Ridden sixty miles total so far, and if it would just...

    Buying from local store vs ordering online

    I will say that I really struggled with the same dilemma. And I was very tempted by some of the online e-bikes, because the cost savings are significant, and there are lots of posts on Facebook, here, and Reddit about people who love them. (You also see a good number of people with problems -...

    2020 Turbo Vado - Early Impressions!

    Well said. The way I look at it is that the 3.0 is the "value" option - good, solid components at a "reasonable" price (if $2700 is reasonable). The 4.0 and higher take a good bike and turn it into a really good one. As someone just starting out, the 3.0 serves my purpose well - rides great...

    Stefan - this is great information and thanks so much for it. You’ve been a huge help! I’m sure I’ll have more questions :)

    2020 Turbo Vado - Early Impressions!

    Yes, fenders - photos attached. It's a stock bike, just like the website, $2700, no negotiating :) Here's a few pics from the weekend.

    2020 Turbo Vado - Early Impressions!

    Rick53 - can confirm, 2020 Vado 3.0 in the US is Class 3. Picture attached. Went for a ride today, got it up to 26, working hard to do it though, in the next to highest gear - however, in a strong (and cold!) wind. Might need to tweak some settings in the Mission Control app down the road. For...

    2020 Turbo Vado - Early Impressions!

    That's great info, RR - and thanks for it! Hope April comes quickly. BTW, I did in fact remove the front wheel to get it the car....still, it wasn't easy. Will be getting a hitch rack for sure. Enjoy.
