In this video I cover the rationale behind why I purchased a (second-hand) Specialized Turbo Vado 4.0 in 2024 – after all there is newer (better?) technology available!
I will be happy to answer questions that you leave in the comments section. To make me happy, add a Cake emoji into the comment. My answerer will not contingent on a piece of cake, but it will help sustain me. If you want to donate real cake, use the https://www.buymeacoffee.com/fiveminutevelo link.

About the 5MV channel
————————————–
My name is Terry and I love cycling. I have named my channel “Five Minute Velo” (5MV). I have called it 5MV because the videos I upload will (mostly) last no longer than five minutes. Each video will cover just one subject that is described in the title. Although the channel is mainly about cycling on the road, I will also cover some light (gravel) off road riding and cycle touring from time to time. No matter what, much of the advice will be pertinent to many branches of the sport/pastime.
I am new to posting videos on YouTube (May 2020) and I have much to learn, particularly in terms of presentation style and production quality. As such I welcome constructive comments that will help me improve the videos that I produce and upload.
There may be some dry humor in some of the videos, so dry it may not always be obvious :-).

I have simular problems to yourself. I had a very large stroke & so I am not strong. I purchased the Trek Allant 7 + It was expensive 4049€ but they gave me 1500€ for my Orbea Gain, which was a wonderful bike but as I am 66 I found the seating position to be uncomfortable. I have kept my Trek Domane AL4 for the days I feel stronger. Overall I am very happy with my choice. I look forward to a detailed description of your Vado. Thank you for the video
Good vid!! And a great bargain! If you’re not on a rush to buy and have done some research I agree eBay is a great way to get a good deal … I’ve certainly used it to buy the likes of power meter and bike computer … happy touring!
Enjoyed this video! Looking forward to your detailed review as mentioned.
