    Specialized support

    I had your problem a couple of years ago on my Vado SL 4 and Specialized replaced the whole motor after a complaint by my LBS. It arrived a week later and was fitted. Apparently Specialized then discovered it could be tightened up!🤣

    Winter is coming: how do I protect the battery?

    Same here, also my primary transport. Can't see battery removal possible as it's quite a complicated procedure!

    Winter is coming: how do I protect the battery?

    I live in North Wales and keep my Vado SL in a concrete detached garage. In winter the inside of the window has ice on it. I ride all year around. For three years the bike has survived unprotected. You can buy one of these if you so wish...

    SL 4 crank wobble/ grinding noise

    My SL4 developed play on the crankshaft at 6 months old. My LBS filed a complaint on my behalf to Specialized and they replaced the motor under warranty. I was in the LBS last week and they informed me that Specialized have discovered that the crank could be adjusted up and that motor...

    New Vado SL 4.0 - harsh ride!

    I have heard this from you previously so I tried adding an elastomer but it made it harsh again! I guess I ride more upright than you. So I reverted back to one. Much better. But that's why they make it adjustable.

    Firmware update for charging limit

    I too was using the mission control right up to the end as I hate everything about the new app. I have difficulty reading the figures, mission control was much better with the black background. The new app has far too much detail for me with watts and stuff! I just want simple things like speed...

    Mission control no longer supported?

    So this flashes up now every time i log on. Does this mean it will stop functioning soon? I see that the app has disappeared from the Google play list. I did try the new app but hated it as I couldn't read the text whilst riding. So i re installed mission control as i preferred it and couldn't...
