Haha. He calls it Kinetic vs Kinekt.

I found that most of my bike kits, clothing, accessories, and gears are Specialized. I do own POC helmet and goggles. I used to wear a lot of pearl izumi stuff. curious to see if you find the quality of Specialized clothing superior. I realize you can go really fancy on bike clothing and kits.

Not sure about this fact but I think during my research I found that Kinekt is one of the only suspension seat posts which does not have for and aft (Forward) movement when extending and compressing (up and down). I own Kinekt for my Vado 5 and very happy so far.

Fully agree. My Kinekt Suspension seat post along with Ergon saddle actually are doing a good job of providing comfortable ride. The ride comfort was reduced when switching from Trigger Sport tires to Shwalbe Maeathin E+.

Thanks @Stefan Mikes . I see it clearly now. Still wondering if it is not redundant. Having both.

@Stefan Mikes my concern is to install suspension stem to my bike which already has suspension fork. What do you think?

I am using Kinekt 2.1 suspension seat post with my Specialized Vado 5. Easy instal no modification needed. It has improved the ride quality specially since I moved to Shwalbe Marathon E+ tires which are much stiffer and heavier than Trigger Sport tires which came with bike. I was considering...

Is it redundant to have suspension fork and suspension stem?

Does your bike have suspension fork?

What kind of bike do you have, suspension fork?

Same thing happened to my 2020 Vado 5 after the last firmware update. it was fine before that.

I tried to buy few items from Specialized just to keep in case. They don’t sell some of the parts to consumers and dealers need to order for you (chain ring,...)

Must add that some parts are on back order. I had to wait few weeks for chain ring. There is no third party parts available for some of Vado parts.

Curious to know how this works with conjunction to your fork.

I just scheduled an appointment with my LBS for one year checkup/tune up, firmware update, and motor error message that I had couple of weeks ago (has not happened again). This is for my 2020 Vado 5 which I purchased in Sept 2019 with almost 2,000 miles now (second motor in March 2020 and first...

thanks for posting. I have been looking for any video I can find for Vado and haven’t been able to find many.

First motor error and not responding after 1,900 miles on the new motor. Vado 5 stoped responding, display showed flashing “motor error” and “no battery” message. did SOP turning the bike off and then on after 30 seconds or so. No improvement after three try. activated Mission Controls which...

I have taken my V5 on gravel. Does well. Not well on sand with Marathon E+. Also not well in muddy road as the mud sticks to tires and then under the fenders. This prevents wheels to turn freely and need to be cleaned constantly to ride.
