I can't say I see exactly what @Jeremy McCreary sees, but I have seen loss of sensor data as @jason.flood mentioned within app due to connectivity issues (whether that means bluetooth, app issue, etc...I suspect app issue are not a low level bluetooth issue since all my bluetooth device work...

I treat Specialized rides as a highly featured bike odometer, and I want to it to be very light touch and record everything. This is why it sounds like I would like the Bosch app. And neither Bosch or Specialized prevents me from using additional app(s) in parallel for special rides, which I...

I'm disappointed with the way they implemented distance field. There is no way to have it match Ride distance from Specialized app or just the odometer from first ride (that I found). To me it's very inconsistent & tedious to need to manually reset distance with handlebar controller AND...

Those are all good. Regarding belt tension, have them error on lower vs higher tension. I run mine at ~35 if I recall, which is the low end of spec. You may have a hard time reaching lower cadences if tension is too high. Next step if you have cadence issues is a 22T rear cog (yours may...

We can drift back to big Vado too :) if the goal is comfort on bumpy roads and a sweat free commute. Workout is great too when assist is off (which I do for exercise....I think it's hard to get a good workout on a bike because they are so efficient -- unless you don't need to worry about...

Well I guess you need more motor power! Presumably if you had unlimited motor power at your disposal, you wouldn't always pedal harder at the highest assist because you could easily maintain any speed. But these bikes (especially big vado) tease us by allowing well over 250W power as we surge...

Perhaps carrot effect is an SL phenomenon -- I have a vado 5.0, and generally just match the assist to the speed I want. It's easy to hit >25mph, so no need to try harder for the carrot (I'm happy with that speed). Although I do ride much harder when I have assist off! This would be when I...

That's no fun, hopefully it's something easy. The new firmware self calibrates, so perhaps you are not on the latest (it came out this summer I believe). I don't think everyone is super happy with it though, because apparently some report that it calibrates too often causing user to spin fast...

That's too bad -- that a lot of effort to downgrade to the old firmware. Hopefully Enviolo realizes R48 was a step in the wrong direction and they fix in R49. I don't even understand the value in doing a calibration so often... especially given low rate of calibration when it was a manual...

Hi all, This summer got away from me so just circling back :) Just wanted to see if anyone has any updates on R48 firmware performance -- hopefully issues have worked themselves out!

I had this issue earlier in the week. Like others, I had to to clear cache / storage and even uninstalled a couple times to get it to work again, and it was a challenge to get prompt to connect as a companion device. I did have some instances where app claimed it connected during setup, but...

Wow, does it do this once every time you power up the bike? Or even worse, every time you come to a full stop? Good catch, I hope they take care of it quickly!

That's no fun, bummer. Have either of you played with the starting cadence adjustment? I forgot the setting name in Enviolo app, but it's the one that lets you essentially start from a stop in a higher or lower gear through a slider adjustment. Doing a full calibration every start (or...

I'm not familiar with SL battery, but the big vado battery terminals are recessed and do not output a voltage unless the system power button is pressed. So shorting big vado battery terminals wouldn't cause high current. Perhaps you shorted the charger port? If so, then it's hard to say what...

That's interesting! My cadences are similar at those speeds, but they were even lower when it was slipping. And at the time, I had the 24T rear cog and was able to hit 28mph at <80rpm if I recall...which was VERY unusual for that cog from what I read. So the uncalibrated gear ratio range must...
