    Do You Wear A Cap Underneath Your Bicycle Helmet?

    I remember that music / biking thread. I did not contribute, I just play it by ear, my music taste widely varies greatly and I can quickly just change, if not working for my mood, thanks to Spotify. MTB trail rides the music is usually very mellow, vs road rides. I have a small collection music...

    Do You Wear A Cap Underneath Your Bicycle Helmet?

    I just saw this thread for the first time this morning… I wear two different caps under my helmets: 1. Headsweats cap, without brim, for colder weather riding under my road and MTB helmets. 2. Because I like the sun blocking benefit of the visor on my Fox Speedframe Pro MTB helmet, I picked...

    2026 - Our Rides in Words, Photos, Maps and Videos

    This morning I rode Old La Honda Road, one the default roadie climbs in this area usually connected to 3 more for crazy long rides. This was my first time on the Creo. This was a scoping ride, since I want to ride on my other bike this summer, not sure if I can, so I will try a couple of more...

    Turbo Creo 2 Comp E5

    MikeyP, An easy search with the same question you posted shows you will get a 440mm wide bar and 100 stem length. If buying at a Specialized dealer, they should be able to provide a swap, as needed, if you have oddball body dimensions like me. But my 54 Creo 2 didn't need any swaps, unlike my...

    The coast was about 20 degrees cooler than the rest of the Bay Area...mid 80s. Half Moon Bay was slightly overcast, but nice and mild. Started on the MUP, Coastal Trail then crossed over to the Higgins Canyon Road climb and Purisima Creek Rd, then back over to the Coastal Trail. 26 miles and...

    How Often And How Long Are Class 3 E-Bikes Traveling At More Than 20 MPH?

    As meschwett states above you to get to the 28mph speed, with an ebike providing pedal assist, the cyclist needs to put out a decent amount of wattage to the pedals for the bike to provide a minimum of approximately twice the wattage. But my Class 3 Creo 2 only has 320W maximum. I know I have...

    Ravemen FR160 or 300

    I use a FR300 on a out front Garmin mount on the lower mount on my Creo. It works very well as a "be seen" light. it has side visibility that many lights do not have. I would recommend it to others. It is a poor night riding light since it is only 300 lumens, and the angle of light projection is...

    How Often And How Long Are Class 3 E-Bikes Traveling At More Than 20 MPH?

    I have been wondering about the current 3-Class eBike classification system too. I have seen some interesting new classification systems being bounced around. Currently, there are variety of legitimate Class 3 ebikes, which, as we know, have a motor assist cut-off at 28mph while pedaling only. I...

    How Often And How Long Are Class 3 E-Bikes Traveling At More Than 20 MPH?

    My average speed on paved road routes, that I ride near my house, ranges from 15-18mph. On these routes, here are a few intersections, and traffic signals before I reach the fun, good roads, I usually ride in 20-40% boost on my Creo 2 Class 3. My highest assist setting is set to 70%, which is...

    Garmin RearVue 820 Radar Light impressions

    A quick update, not sure when the update happened, but I have not used my Creo for a week or so, was on my MTB. I see they reversed the Split Screen view background from black to white, maybe there was a choice before, though I cannot find it. But the interesting change was the removal of the...
