Specialized E-Bikes Recalled for Safety Hazard

What is the Problem?

Specialized recalled Vado and Como e-bikes because the bike’s protective chain/belt guard does not cover the belt drive. “Loose clothing can get entrapped in the belt drive, posing a fall hazard.”

The recall involves chain guards on Internal Gear Hub (IGH) e-bikes, including the Specialized Turbo Como IGH, Turbo Como SL IGH, and Turbo Vado IGH e-bikes that were sold between 2021 and 2024.

Where Were They Sold?

The recalled Specialized Vado and Como e-bikes were sold at authorized Specialized Bicycle retailers nationwide and online from March 2021 through November 2024 for between $3,250 and $5,750.
