Turbo Vado SL 2 5.0 EQ
Fitness E-Bike · 520Wh · SL 1.2 · Shimano CUES 11spd · Future Shock 3.1

The Turbo Vado SL 2 5.0 EQ hits the sweet spot in the Vado SL 2 lineup — same featherlight SL 1.2 motor and 520Wh battery as the 6.0, with a Shimano CUES 11-speed mechanical drivetrain instead of the carbon 2x. Future Shock 3.1, integrated lighting and display, fenders, and a Turbo SL rack — everything you need for fitness commutes and fast errand-running. At 20.11kg, it's the SL lifestyle with real utility.

  • SL 1.2 Motor: 320W — lightweight, natural-feeling assist, whisper quiet.
  • 520Wh SL2-520 Battery: Fully integrated, up to 5 hours eco range.
  • Future Shock 3.1: 20mm smooth travel, ergo-friendly integrated stem.
  • Shimano CUES 11-speed: RD-U8000 rear derailleur, SL-U8000 shift levers, 11-50t.
  • Integrated Lighting: Lezyne EBike Power STVZO E500+ headlight, Spanninga taillight.
  • Turbo SL Rack + Fenders: MIK HD compatible, 27kg, integrated alloy fenders.
  • Apple Find My + Turbo System Lock: Mastermind H3 with built-in security.
  • 20.11kg (44 lb): ~1.76kg heavier than the 6.0 EQ Carbon.

The 5.0 EQ is the do-everything Vado SL — lighter than a full-power bike, more utility than a pure fitness machine. Future Shock + 700x47c tires + integrated everything.
