Specialized Turbo Vado SL: An Incredible E-Bike (User Club)

[BritishC]

@BritishC: No worries then.

First of all, BLEvo will work with your Vado SL. I am a prime case of that as I have used BLEvo since the purchase of my Gen 1 Vado in 2021.
Secondly, Specialized App will not block BLEvo but you need to meet two conditions:

• Never ever let Specialized App become the Companion App. If prompted, decline. If you have already allowed that, uninstall Specialized App and re-install it
• BLEvo or Specialized App can only work one at a time.

Specialized App. (I do not use Specialized App for ride recording, hence only 10 rides shown in SA. The actual mileage is well over 16,000 km).

Note: My Vado SL has been in use since 23rd June 2021.

Thanks Stefan.

I have not loaded the Specialized app yet, because I did not want to be lock in to thier software. Good to know I can do a reset, if i want to try it out.

As you advised, I did get BLEvo to work on my bike, no problem.

I note that my screens look a bit different than your example above. I see BLEvo has some upgrades and add ons so this may be the difference.

You are certainly using iPhone; I use Android

As you can see, your battery is as good as new!
