I have a new Vado SL 5.0 Equip. The TCD display is not lit so I can’t see my speed and power level at night. Pressing the left button turns on the light, but only momentarily. How do I get it to stay on?

I have emailed Specialized and, very unusually, got no response. I have ordered a Vado 5.0 SL EQ and I understand why my order is delayed. But, I would like some word from Specialized letting me know when I could expect it, or even that they can’t commit, but, going silent is not helpful or...

Thanks for your excellent review of the 4.0. I know that you alluded to the 5.0 in that review, but, I would like to see you do a separate review of the Vado 5.0 EQ.

I have seen your excellent review of the Vado SL 4.0. You apparently have not yet reviewed the 5.0. Do you feel that the two bikes are similar enough that a review of the 5.0 is not warranted, or you just have not yet had the opportunity to do so? I would like to see a review of the 6.0 if you...

Specialized Vado 1.0 with $500 in upgrades.

It’s a men’s medium. I am 5’8” if that helps. I added fenders, a rack, Ortleib panniers, Nightlight lights front and back, a $150.00 “Loud” brand horn, and a $240 Body Float seat post shock absorber. The battery should be good, if you can trust the reviews, for another 19,000 miles. I would not...

I want to put forth the notion of "one bike": A bike for commuting, as well as mountain biking. Riese Moeller makes a commuter bike with mountain bike suspension and dual batteries. The problem is that it costs ten thousand dollars, making it cost prohibitive for many folks, including me. I...

I bought a Vado 1.0 several months ago and I have put almost 2,000 miles on the bike. I sold my car a few weeks ago and enjoy the savings as well as the bike. Keeping in mind that I am almost 76 years old, my first choice was a full suspension commuter bike with fenders and a rack, but, the...

I am 75 years old and I live in the desert, and I ride up until 109 degrees. So, after viewing videos for a years, I bought a Vado 1.0. I bought the 1.0 because I had great lights and horn and rack, which the bike store transferred for me. I love the bike. By not using assist when on a mild...
