I wouldn't worry too much about going in depth on every topic, every time. That's what future discussions are for. For new topics (which all topics in the near future will be relatively new), keeping this shorter is good as it can be used to gauge how much interest there is in a topic. If you...

I've often wondered what would happen if a major city DOT gave $20 million in significant bicycle rebates instead of the same to "add more capacity" to a freeway. They could even make it contingent on using a smartphone app to track that eligible candidates are using their bikes for commuting.

At least around here, Neck Gaiter is the term more commonly used for this type of garment. https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=neck+gaiter With any garment that covers your mouth and nose, glasses or goggles fogging up will be a problem. Products like...

I have Shimao Saints on my Specialized Turbo-X. Their biggest downsides would be the shorter pegs than on many other MTB pedal. This can be increased, as I have done, by removing the washers from each of the pegs. They still fail to grip occasionally on my boots, which have a fairly slippery...

Sorry if it was unclear, I did not write this review.

I have one of those and love it. I got mine back during the early pre-order days when they were much cheaper (I have a $25-off referral code if anyone is interested). The only real downside is the helmet is a bit heavier than a normal helmet. Tho, even with my long skinny neck, I haven't had any...

Hey @Over50 sounds like you're ride gear is coming together nicely. I think anyone is going to be prone towards checking out the pretty flashing lights and you can certainly create a blinding situation if not careful about placement and direction lights are pointed. It sounds to me like drivers...

Have been struggling to find reviews of Specialized's Levo HT Comp Fat Bike. Thought I would post this review I found in case others are interested: Introduction: https://fat-bike.com/2016/10/product-spotlight-2017-specialized-turbo-levo-ht-comp-fat-bike/ Full Review...

Grats @IVAN. Good to know Specialized riders have more than one avenue to get replacement parts like that.

Hey @Runnermann thanks for the feedback. I too have been really impressed with the Turbo in terms of being a reliable means of transportation. Even with the brake problems and minor electrical bug, my confidence that the Turbo will get me there is still in tact. I actually get sad when I have to...

Only problem I see with the RadWagon is it only comes in a 17" frame. May be rather small for someone 6'1". I'm 5'11" and ride a 20" frame most comfortably. If you already have a bike that fits nice, check the measurements compared to the Rad Wagon. (Link Removed - No Longer Exists) If you...

I would think any re-designed fender kits are for the new Turbo Vados coming out this year. If you look at the racks in the Vado photos, it is different design than the standard Turbo line.

Before you give up, check with http://www.rosenberger.com/en/contact/ Specialized Turbos use Rosenberger ROPD M4Z003-000 caps. I didn't see them on their online website, but they may be able to get you one. Product data sheet...

@JRA @Mark Peralta @zap016VOLTAGE Loving the winter pics!

Well, Specialized really stepped up to the plate on this one. My dealer says this is the fastest warranty service they've ever seen on replacement brakes in 25 years. Normally the manufacturer (Formula) want them to send the old brakes back to see if they qualify for warranty service, but since...

I'm in the same boat, so I'm putting off my fat-bike purchase until next season to save up for something I really want. One of my big desires for snow are wider 4.5-4.8" tires. Not all frames/forks can handle tires like that. I also want tires/rims that can go tubeless. Again, lots of research...

25km/h is a pretty slow e-bike in the U.S. Not sure where you are located. Take a look at some of the bikes Luna Cycle builds (https://lunacycle.com/e-bikes/) and you can see how nice a conversion can look. The only concern I'd have is looking at your attached photo, the distance to the bend...

It is a bit above $2,000, but Lunacycle has the Black Friday 4 Season 1k for $2300 https://lunacycle.com/black-friday-4-season-1000-fat-tire-ebike-khs/ If you are bike savvy, you could add a mid-drive to a pedal-only fat bike using a kit. Check the DIY section for help with that. Also there...

Thats great news @bazzapage! I have a pair of Ortliebs and love them.

So upon calling Specialized to get the warranty work done, my dealer learned that Formula has been sold to a new company as of January 1st. This new company doesn't even have any of Formula's inventory in their possession yet and it could be weeks to a month before they could get new brakes sent...
