But I can see this on my screen ? Anyway, I've never heard of a 2,8x assistance for my bike. It's really clearer this way... So, I can simulate a Como SL pretty easily, I have just to tune a little bit. Very fun toy ! That pretty much sums up how I feel on the bike! I don't like the "Turbo"...

I don't get this ; I often see something like "Power ratio : 3,6" or even "4" ? So, the "Eco mode" is about 1x assistance. Why ? How do you know that exactly ?

Yes, the bike is still under warranty for 20 months. But I have to go a long way (without a car) to find a store that supports this brand, and they charge a lot for maintenance and checks (and I'll be honest, I didn't like the times I went there). I'm afraid I'll have to “hope the engine breaks”...

Hi, What about the belt not being totally protected ? Should I print something like that ? https://www.printables.com/model/904843-specialized-como-sl-chain-guard-gates-belt

Yeah, great...\o/ I got lots of problems with this bike...Honestly, I wanted reliability, but I wonder if I shouldn't have bought from the big dealers who offer lifetime warranties...

Was it regular? I heard a few “clonks” especially when I was pedaling hard. I “felt” the noise in my foot, as if the pedal had “jumped”; it's done it to me 5 or 6 times so far...

What kind of "noise" does it make ? Because mine 2.0 can make a high-pitched noise in Turbo mode. Should I be worried ? 2200 miles is really not a lot...I want to keep this bike at least 10 years, I didn't spend that much to have a problem after two years...

Hi, I was riding my Como 3 today and was trying to get a “Power Ratio” of 2 (50% power). I was doing this because I can't find a reseller who has a Como SL and I've often read that this bike gives twice the cyclist's power. Is this a more or less reliable way of finding out how much electric...

Yeah, I guess, I don't really know the usual prices.

Hello, A bike mechanic came and changed all the brake pads, cleaned the rear disc and replaced the rear brake fluid. He “glued” (with blue glue) the hose. He told me the pads were worn, I kept the old ones to check but they seem to have the same thickness as the new ones. I paid 210€ (30€ for...

Not really. I may go to a car mechanic ? I know ; could it be that the hose needs changing? It goes through the frame and the engine compartment and they may be afraid of that. Anyway, I don't know, they just told me that they take care of the brands they sell and that they don't sell...

Something like that I guess : They are far away and the one I've called told me they don't repair Specialized E-Bikes (they don't have the software, even if it's not necessary here). It was like "Come with the bike, we'll see". Yeah, thanks...I guess ? I may need to take out the wheel, but...

No, it's really far away and they were not really helpful on phone. :/ I can try elsewhere but I really have to find someone with a big car. So either the caliper is toast, or the hose was simply not screwed in properly? But could it have damager the caliper?

The connector is cross threaded, but just because I've unscrewed (a little bit) it after the leak. I don't know why there was a leak anyway but the connector was almost like this, just a little bit engaged (and straight). I'm gonna fill and bleed the system tomorrow afternoon, thanks. The...

You're absolutely right ; but I have to learn if I want to recognize problems and understand them. I can't rely on a repair store and it looks like I can't rely on a professional dealer either (the bike only has 800 km on it and I have like...five different problems ?). I will try to solve the...
