TECTORA BikeProtection E-Road Frame Protection Film – STEK PPF Paint Protection for SPECIALIZED / S-WORKS VADO SL

Faster. Further. Protected. Our custom-fit STEK PPF paint protection film shields your SPECIALIZED / S-WORKS VADO SLΒ against cable rub, transport scratches, and rock chips β€” so your e-road bike looks as good after a thousand kilometres as it did on day one.

Fitment & Compatibility

This kit was precision digital-designed and tested for:

  • Model: SPECIALIZED / S-WORKS VADO SL frame (from 2025)
  • Material: Carbon frame
  • Sizes: Available for S, M, L and XL

Coverage & Protection Zones (kit incl. fork)

Targeted protection for the typical weak points of an e-road bike β€” optimised for a clean, factory finish. The kit protects:

  • Impact zones: Down tube & front triangle β€” rock chip protection at 50+ km/h.
  • Frame structure: Top tube, head tube & seat tube.
  • Fork: Dedicated fork coverage β€” often overlooked, often damaged.
  • Cable rub protection: Precision-cut pieces covering critical areas exposed to brake and gear cable abrasion.
  • Battery zone: Dedicated coverage around the integrated battery β€” a unique high-contact zone on every e-road bike.

Pro Installation Tips

  • Preparation: Remove the bottle cages and wheels β€” for clean access to every edge.
  • Positioning: Always work wet. Leave approx. 3 mm gaps between pieces.
  • Bonding: Use a hair dryer on edges β€” especially around cable and strap zones.
  • Important: Do not wash the bike for at least 7 days after installation β€” the adhesive needs time to fully cure.

E-Road Install Tip: Extra care on the battery zone and cable routing

On the SPECIALIZED / S-WORKS VADO SL, the areas around the integrated battery and internal cable routing are especially vulnerable β€” take extra time here for alignment and edges.

What's Included – Full-Frame Set incl. Fork

Everything you need for a clean home installation β€” no professional required:

  1. Pre-cut protection film: 100% precision fit β€” no cutting on the paint required.
  2. Application fluid: Spray bottle with Slip Solution β€” just add water.
  3. Pro squeegee: For a bubble-free, smooth surface.
  4. Microfiber cloth: For pre-installation cleaning and final finish.
  5. Step-by-step instructions: Clear and easy to follow β€” perfect for first-time installers.

Technical Specifications

Film Material

We exclusively use STEK PPF β€” a premium thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) from American manufacturer STEK. Ultra-lightweight, crystal-clear, and engineered specifically for high-performance carbon e-road frames.

Film Thickness

208 microns β€” thin enough for a near-invisible factory look with deep gloss, strong enough for reliable protection in all weather and road conditions.

Self-Healing Properties

The elastic top layer regenerates itself with heat. Swirl marks and light scratches disappear with sunlight, warm water, or a hair dryer β€” effortlessly.

Nano-Ceramic Coating

Factory-applied nano-coating with Lotus Effect: mud and water bead off reliably β€” making post-ride cleaning significantly faster.

Warranty

10-year manufacturer warranty against yellowing and cracking.

Accessories & Frame Protection for your SPECIALIZED / S-WORKS VADO SL

An e-road bike at the level of the SPECIALIZED / S-WORKS VADO SLΒ is a serious investment β€” motor, integrated battery, and carbon frame make it one of the most valuable bikes on the road. A precision-fit frame protection film protects exactly where no other accessory reaches.

What makes this kit essential:

  • Cable rub protection: Prevents the most common e-road damage β€” paint wear at cable-routing and electronic integration points.
  • Transport safety: No more scratches from transport straps, roof racks, or bike boxes.
  • Rock chip protection: Shields the front triangle and fork from high-speed impacts.
  • Resale value: An undamaged carbon frame with intact paint holds its value β€” a scratched one does not.

Film Quality & Material – STEK PPF

Our e-road frame protection film for the SPECIALIZED / S-WORKS VADO SLΒ was developed specifically for this frame β€” every curve, every cable zone, every battery edge fits perfectly. Transparent, self-healing, and so precisely cut that the film is virtually invisible once installed.

This bike frame PPF is engineered specifically for carbon e-road frames with integrated electronics β€” not a generic wrap, but a model-specific protection solution built for speed, range, and long-term aesthetics.

We trust STEK PPF β€” one of the most reliable paint protection films from the USA β€” for long-lasting protection that holds up through thousands of road kilometres.

The best protection is the one you never see β€” but feel on every ride. Ride fast. Ride far. Stay protected.
