    Thats great you have those saddle(s) on order. Just a heads up though...it takes a certain clamp to mount those seats on...your current one will NOT work as the shape is slightly different. I still have the instructions and even the clamp package...its called Anodized Clamp 7+9mm Part No...

    General Creo questions

    So hey I noticed you and mschwett on a creo "neck problem" thread...well ahh...having neck issues of my own sorry to say. Seeing a chiropractor right now and he recommended a bike fitting for my Creo on August 30th. Kinda wondering what solution you finally ended up with. Curious about those...

    General Creo questions

    Yeah Honestly though even with the lighter Creo's you'd be having difficulties (I think the aluminum version is 5 pounds heavier than my carbon version). The Creo is a great bike but massive hills and hauling extra weight is not its strong point. Truthfully it's a bit underpowered and the...

    It doesn't feel squishy at all. As a matter of fact I don't feel a noticeable difference getting on the saddle. I do feel a big difference during and after my rides however. No soreness! I don't have to adjust my butt during the ride anymore either. I do 30-50 mile rides too so there is...

    General Creo questions

    So do you have a Creo? I find that I get amazing battery longevity on my Creo Expert...probably due to my fitness level, weight (myself and the bike), flats...I even ride it on sport and turbo quite a bit and never seem to worry about my battery level whatsoever. A battery extender would be nice...

    Even with the Creo you need to be pretty fit to do a lot of big hills. Truthfully if I lived around massive hills I probably would have went with the Trek Domane+ HP 7. But for my age and the flats in my environment the Creo is perfect!

    General Creo questions

    Same for me...generally. I need at least eco mode mostly but just for the fun of maintaining a certain speed. I did ride it with no power here and there and last time I did it was actually enjoyable! That's what is fun about the Creo is a customized workout.

    That makes sense. I guess as far as cost I'll probably only find that out when the moment arises.

    General Creo questions

    Ok new Creo expert owner here...out of curiosity anyone have any info on where to buy and cost to replace the SL1-320 battery that comes internally in the bike? I read it has a 500 charge cycle life so was just thinking down the road...My wife has a Como 3.0 and there is plenty of info on...

    Yeah but you are pushing yourself regardless...to the max...either max human power or electric power 😅

    The e-bike under exercising myth.

    Good for you! My gf never liked to work out before I get her an ebike (Como 3)...Now she's a biking addict and dropping all kinds of weight

    My heart rate monitor tells me I'm working out...plus my sweaty clothes 🥵

    The e-bike under exercising myth.

    Really it's everything ebike riders are saying...plus more. Riding a ebike now (creo expert) I find I can ride when I want more...meaning less down time recouping...more enjoyment level translating to more effort level. The fact is the more you enjoy biking the more you want to do it. Ebike or...

    Happy Specialized Creo Expert Owner in CO

    Creo expert owner here...Totally concur with your sentiments. I like riding faster and cutting though headwinds as well. Honestly these advantages plus others kind of make me more mentally engaged in the ride. Puts a whole new spin on this biking thing

    No longer using the Creo for road riding

    Yep totally get that. Truth be told there are times I've thought about having my Roubaix back. The lightness and more fluid gearing was definitely superior to the Creo. The Aethos would be nice to have as well. Thats a heck of a two bike combo.

    No longer using the Creo for road riding

    Captain, Fellow creo owner here and sort of get where you are coming from. The battery and motor do add weight..something my old 'lighter' Roubaix didn't have. But man...been getting a lot of headwinds lately...an occasional hill to contend with...Sometimes I need to catch up with my gf on her...

    Domane+ HP v Creo SL

    May be a good value bike but not digging how it looks. The battery looks slapped on and the color is so basic black and white.

    Trek Domane +HP 2021

    Creo 'expert' owner here.... I totally appreciate many aspects about the Domane+ HP 7. I havnt ridden it but done much reading and it seems like a very well rounded versatile bike. I have a little fascination over the HP...seems to me a few 'Trek' posters feel the same about the Creo...ha. It...
