    Oh that’s all mud! Nice little mockup of what tan walls might look like. Running the stock 47s and very satisfied with them so far even for road riding.

    Yikes! Did not know that.

    I've found my future ebike

    I just love to see bikes like this. It's great that the market is heading towards lightweight, stylish, stealthy city e-bikes. Canyon just released a Grizl:On gravel bike that I believe has an equipped version in Europe with fenders/rack/lights.

    Little impromptu adventure yesterday. With the Creo every "oh I wonder what's over there..." becomes "well, might as well find out!" Wiggly like a worm in the mud :D And in case you were wondering what tan walls might look like on the Gold Harvest colorway.. I'd say, pretty dang good!

    Turbo Vado SL5 vs Skitch Flatbar! And the winner is...

    Yeah, I have the opposite issue (more hand issues than butt). Always have to remember to engage the core, bend at the elbow and life off of the seat over bumps, switch hand positions, etc. It's becoming second nature and really helping. I agree, oddly! I've done a ton of gravel trail and...

    I've found my future ebike

    Heard it described as middle of the road compared to other motors. Quieter than CX, louder than the standard Performance Line.

    Does that include comprehensive coverage of the bike? I already crashed my week old Creo (lol). Bike and myself were 100% unscathed that time since it happened in a grassy field.

    Turbo Vado SL5 vs Skitch Flatbar! And the winner is...

    Caveat is I used pedal cages for a long time, so I'm used to feeling for the right side of the pedal. Downsides are clipping in when you don't want to. I hear you though, and might actually throw flats on the Creo for fun someday. The Roval Terra seatpost is MUCH more compliant than the...

    Turbo Vado SL5 vs Skitch Flatbar! And the winner is...

    Congrats! I rode the Skitch twice and hate to say that the second time I really didn't feel it at all, let alone for $6k. Creo 2 is just the far more exciting bike for me, and it's clear that they're taking a more holistic approach to building e-bikes with in-house software, future-shock, etc...

    Let’s see who can beat this. Proof or it didn’t happen.

    Good question on whether or not the S-Works remote buttons are bluetooth. Of course, they randomly decided to photograph all of the Creo 2s without the included remotes...

    Ergonomic adjustment / suspension stem for Gazelle bike?

    Been riding my wife’s size small a bit more. I would go so far as to say it’s a better fit my for arms than the large - at 6’ 1”. I bet a smaller frame would have solved a lot of my issues. For reference, my wingspan is about 2” shorter than my height. If in your relaxed position your arms are...

    Is this company legit

    If you want to shop from a low-credibility random online site and deal with the potentially time consuming fallout of submitting chargebacks, by all means. With almost unlimited choice of established legitimate online stores, I don’t see the point…

    Are all Bosch mid-drive systems Class 1 only and... is that good or bad?

    I used to want a throttle, and a huge battery, and tons of power. Those were all key to me when I joined the forum. Now, I just don’t see the point for that on a bicycle, though for mopeds it makes perfect sense. And yes, it does smooth out the ride from 0-5 mph if you’re not in the right...

    That looks like a good location, but I could see how 10 mm in a different direction could be annoying. Seems like no two Creos have the buttons in the exact same spot :)

    Can One order Garmin Varias on 2022 Turbo Vado 4.0?

    The wired version is a headache. My wife and I have two wired versions, and later I added a battery version. You can only add ONE Varia on the app. If you ride multiple bikes and want to use the Varia with them the wired version is useless. Would have saved a lot of time and money by just...

    So I have been unplugging it after 80%. The manual said to unplug after charging. If you let it sit without being plugged does it always start back at the same %? Edit: today it’s at 80! Probably just balancing out the battery over the first few cycles.

    Total e-bike ban after a fatality in Key Biscayne, FLA

    They don’t. But in my town all the kids want surrons and many 12-14 year olds have them. It’s really nuts.

    Saddle pressure, numbness, and maintaining sexual health at 59

    Just had one myself and wholeheartedly recommend it. There are so many adjustments to improve comfort, and it’s a fraction of the cost of a bike.
