    Specialized Vado SL derestricted

    Anyone have any experience or recommendations derestricting a Vado SL? Mostly leaning towards the magnet trick were you move the sensor back and tape the magnet onto the crank itself. I live in Canada and our max speed of 32km is just a little low for me when I’m commuting to work.

    Alright after a few more rides on my Vado SL 4.0 I have come to a conclusion regarding the drag I have been experiencing when the power is off. When I first start a ride without power I don’t notice anything, bikes rides smooth without any noticeable drag when I pedal. However if I turn the...

    i'm 5'11 and ride a medium i have shorter legs i think so i went with that instead of the large just so i have enough clearance on the top tune when standing. i'll give it another shot tomorrow and try riding around without any power.

    Specialized’s ultra-light 120-mile range e-bike - Turbo Vado SL

    found out how to turn the lights off and yes I did read the part about turning off the bike before charging. Looks like the lights turn on and stay on whenever you plug in the bike even when the bike is turned off, what I had to do to turn the lights off was to push the power button after...
