    Experience Thread: A noobie getting into a specialized vado 5.0 IGH

    The IGH is more expensive so it must be a better bike. Really quite the oddity wanting clipped pedals for an IGH. I guess it’s the option that allows you to spend the most money? 🤷‍♂️

    Is it possible to even buy a Turbo Vado 5.0 Medium

    I live in Houston and can’t seem to find a Medium Turbo Vado 5.0 anywhere near me. Is there a way I can secure the 2023 model when it comes out?

    Turbo Vado 5.0 Availability in the US

    Good point. I like the Vado 5 on paper but can’t find one to test ride. I need to find a Vado 4 to test ride and go from there. LBS only had an Allant+ 7S and loved the speed but the clicking was loud AF. I hope Specialized rides better.
