Turbo Vado SL 2 5.0 Step-Through EQ
Turbo Vado SL 2 5.0 Step-Through EQ
Fitness E-Bike · Step-Through · 520Wh · SL 1.2 · Shimano CUES 11spd

The Turbo Vado SL 2 5.0 Step-Through EQ is the same high-performance fitness machine as the standard 5.0 EQ, but in a step-through frame that makes mounting and dismounting effortless. Same SL 1.2 motor, same 520Wh battery, same Future Shock 3.1, integrated lighting, and full urban kit — everything you need for fast, confident commutes and fitness rides.

  • SL 1.2 Motor: 320W — lightweight, natural-feeling assist, whisper quiet.
  • 520Wh SL2-520 Battery: Fully integrated, up to 5 hours eco range.
  • Step-Through Frame: Easy on/off — perfect for stop-and-go city riding.
  • 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.
  • 20.3kg (44 lb): ~190g heavier than the standard 5.0 EQ due to step-through frame.

Same do-everything Vado SL formula as the 5.0 EQ, but accessible to all riders with the step-through design. Commute, fitness, explore — without compromise.
