I live in Charlotte and none of the Specialized dealers had the 5.0 IGH, but the website directed me to a dealer in Pittsburgh...Pro Bike Run. They had it..I traded my Vado 6 in via pro closet and drove 7 hours to pick it up. So glad I did. It's the best e-bike I've owned, (Super73 OG, Yamaha...

3000 miles in and loving every minute! Just put on a new chain, Pirelli Cinturato 40s, Brooks saddle, bag, rear light and bar tape.

I think I am going to buy a 2nd one so I can swap batteries and still be covered. Until it arrives I definitely want to use the 500wH, tomorrow will be the first run.

New 500wH battery received today! It may be possible to swap the green cover to the 500 wh battery but it is not a simple task. After removing the screws on the ends and the tab it wouldn’t budge. Looks like a set of clips on the side that snap-in. The bike shop says it’s tricky but they can do...

I couldn’t find this but will weigh them both.

I have ordered the 500Wh battery for mine. After taking my battery out for the first time today it seems the cover can be swapped to the new battery via a few screws. My current battery is just enough for my current daily ride but I would also like to lengthen the ride some at times. The current...

I did a little digging and found the specs of the 375 to be the exact same size-wise as the 500. It seems they crammed in 10 additional cells. SPECIFICATIONS 375: Dimension (L x W x H): 435 x 77.5 x 67mm; Cells: 30 /18650 (375 Wh), 40 /18650 (500 Wh); Capacity: 375, 500 Wh; Maximum charging...

That’s great news. Would the green cover simply mount on the new 500wh battery? Or is it ordered as an assembly in the revolt color?

Mine is a 100mm 6 degrees rise..if I remember correctly. I think the stock stem is 75mm

I'm 51 years old and today I rode my daily 17.5-mile loop over fairly hilly terrain with 1000 ft of elevation gain. which is a mix of good roads, bad roads, and a small amount of gravel trail. The bike after 1300 miles, is better than new. I had the dealer switch to a tubeless setup and rotate...

Picked up from the shop...they said firmware changes needed to be made. When I start the bike it comes up in auto mode? Not sure what that is about..anyway first test ride coming up.

Mine is in the shop after 1300 miles. Was not experiencing cut off however was getting the service indicator and battery showing only 95% health. Bike at the shop for 12 days still waiting for Giant to respond to the warranty claim. this sucks as I ride this bike 20 miles a day every day.

Just a few pics from today's road/trail ride... 300 miles in two weeks zero disappointments

Today I had to drop off my Como 5 at the shop after 320 miles and 5 weeks of ownership. The motor drive belt is toast. The shop, Bike Source in Charlotte, is going to see what they can do to expedite the new motor from Specialized/Brose. They said normally this is 2-3 week ordeal to get the bike...

Absolutely love the color of the bike!
