So far so good. Grinding feeling is mostly gone, although shifting into smallest gear occasionally still slips/doesn't catch.

That is really good to hear -- I just had to take it in this weekend because the problem got so bad I was afraid I'd get stranded somewhere. The shop changed out the cassette today. After I ride it for a while I'll report back here.

I had that exact thing happen to me once so far: I was pedaling and then it just went into "neutral," I don't know how else to explain it. Like some kind of clutch mechanism skipped or something. I've had the chain skip or clunk when in the highest gear. It also happened to my wife's 3.0 and...

I'd like to know, too. Would love to get a 4.0 here stateside. Also, the description on their website says the 3.0 comes with a light and fenders but the product photo(s) don't show any fenders.

I just noticed that. And I saw a NuVinci logo in there as well!

My wife's bike was similar: starting in kph. A firmware update did not decrease the maximum speed from 26(-ish), but it did remember which speed unit it used (mph). Hers starts in sport mode with the lights on. I wonder if that's a setting somewhere in the firmware? Specialized, if you're...

Looks like they're prepping the website(s): https://www.specialized.com/us/en/bikes/turbo/turbo-como

We'll keep an eye on ours. For now it seems okay but as my wife puts more miles on it she may notice some things. I'll definitely have them get in touch.

No way! I live in Superior! We got my wife's bike at BikeSource down on Colorado Blvd.

Okay, I just went for a 9 mile ride and it didn't seem related to the chainring or the cassette. I couldn't reliably reproduce the issue under a particular set of conditions. I did notice it clunking occasionally when the motor engaged, but it didn't seem related to which gear I was in. It also...

I've noticed something similar when riding my wife's Vado 3.0. It only happens in the highest gear (10th) and maximum assist, and I have to be pushing quite a bit. The bike shop installed a new rear cassette and it appears to have gotten better, but I will take it out for a more extended test...

I know this thread is a bit old, but I'm wondering what the resolution was on this? I had the same problem start on mine today. Only my servo decided to quit working in a high gear (ratio, really) so it was almost impossible to get moving from a stop. Also, I did a firmware update on mine and...

That bag is great, but I'm talking about the rack that supports it, which the 2.0 does not come with. It looks like Specialized is making it difficult for standard aftermarket racks to fit.

I agree, but the 2.0 doesn't come with fenders or the rack.

To clarify: the Tempo Carmel doesn't have H|Sync, but rather a separate basic 3-button controller for the NuVinci with 3 different cadence presets. It feels really cool, though. It's basically slow, medium, and fast, and the change is nearly instantaneous.
