2018 Men's Turbo Vado 4.0

I really enjoy my Vado, but unfortunately there were lots of issues. Specialized seems not so interested if there are problems with a bike (the excuse was: we never haf this issue before). For this amount of money, the service is horrible. My Vado ( I use it almost daily and I need it for work) wasn't working anymore, so i haf to bring it to my retailer. There it was for 1 month! Just after 2 months riding. No sorry, nothing. No replacement, so I had to borrow a car and pay gas for 20 days. That's not how service works. However there is also no app for the vado models yet, which is, regarding the regular updates of the levo-app, embarrassing. Well, at least it rides again and so far without problems. But if there are problems and you are dependant on the bike- you're lost.

Only 4 weeks into ownership but more than enough miles covered now to know what I think. The bike is just a joy to ride and when it comes to nearing the end of a journey, I just want to keep going. Sadly the main disadvantages to ownership have been down to Specialized themselves. No app after all this time is ridiculous. There has been a change in spec too and the rear light built into the pannier has been removed and replaced by a cluster of LED lights on the rear mudguard. Nothing to reflect this change online and Specialized had a ""so what"" attitude when I called to ask. It cant be that hard to update the website and when spending more than 3 thousand on a bike its nice to know exactly what you are getting. But it hasn't otherwise spoiled my enjoyment of what is a brilliant bit of engineering. Was caught out last weekend and had to walk up a huge flight of stairs pushing the bike alongside the stairs and there is even a ""walking mode"" where it pushes itself along at walking speeds, they think of everything! Just hurry up with the App...!!

I've had the bike for 11 months and it's not been a pleasant ride! I really like to ride the bike when it works. There have been a number of issues, like it turns off when it rains, really? Yes! Some of the glitches has been corrected, one with a small addition where the bloks display is connected. Another when much of the cables to the motor was replaced. Still I've had several issues while riding when suddenly the motor stops helping. After powering on/off a number of times it might work again. Finally the issue with the mission control app - first being promised early fall (when I had had the bike 3 months) and then later postponed until winter and now being promised later 2018, really? When the bike works it's the best - but so far it's been a very bumpy ride and I don't think I would buy the bike again.

I can't fault the design and quality of the bike and it's colour really stands out from other bikes. The only problem I have had is loss of power every now and again and that was due to to the controller not being fully seated into place. My fault really and since then it has been faultless. The only downside has been the continuing lack of thecumbria uk 🇬🇧 acumbrpp which was promised when I bought the bike a year ago....is it ever going to appear?

while riding the Vado 4 it started to rain,the bike lost power and since then it has not performed as it should. Also the Mission Control App does not work with this bike

this bike is amazing The only downside is that there is no app as the one that is available does not work
