BEST EBIKE
Specialized Turbo Vado SL Equipped
When I had to return this electric bike (9/10, WIRED Recommends),
I almost cried. The tiny, but powerful, custom motor and slim battery
are integrated into the frame, so it doesn't even look like an ebike.
The XS frame weighs 33 pounds, only a few more than a regular steel
bike. It has a hybrid frame with flat handlebars that make it easy to
maneuver on a variety of surfaces, whether you're scooting along at 28
miles per hour or bumping through trees at your local park.
Specialized's
Smart Control system means you don't have to adjust assistance while
you're riding, or worry about having enough battery to get home. A
hidden shock in the head tube cushions the blow from any unexpected
potholes. Even the accessories are top-notch, like long, flexible custom
fenders that sluice water down and away from you in the rain. I put 40
miles on it in three days. It was so fun that it was hard to hop off.

I did a scan of eBike offerings from Trek and Giant. Specialized is at least a year ahead of everyone. My only concern is this eBike outclasses everyone else by such a significant margin that it may be too good to be true. Tom
