It’s way crowded now a days and then in the middle of that either fast ebike 30+ mph or a pack of racers go past me similar to how cars go past on roads. Burke + Sammamish seems staple Tolt pipeline is pretty clean but big hills one after the other. Redmond powerline however is pretty rough...

The slight upright position of Vado gives an aggressive vibe. I had thought of Como but it seemed too relaxed to take on gravel/light mountain. However I do get pain in upper back / shoulders area so heading to LBS to do bike fit well using saddle position, reach and stem height/angle. Feel bit...

And I did miss suspension; mostly seatpost and a few times at the stem. However futureshock did wonders most of the times. The route changed from road to gravel which wasn’t much noticeable except for speed and noise of those pesky gravels flying away from tires. Lose accumulated gravel spots...

Has anyone put tape to hold onto handlebar middle or close to middle spots? I tend to feel good holding hands could of inches away from stem/midpoint on handlebar all the times. So far here are the hand spots: - Default grips - Bar ends GP2/3/4/5 - Innerbarends

@Stefan Mikes Do you have link to the stem riser on Amazon?

Can I get a full pic to see how far apart the inner bar ends are?

I find that 2022SL5 is ready to drive without any changes given it has lock+alarm, futureshock, pathfinders (road+gravel), good grips. Just came from 35mile drive across the lake mostly in off, echo with one hill needing sport and has 25% battery left so I am sure I can do 45-50mile rides...

By offset forward you mean attaching the seatpost towards backend of the saddle such that entire saddle moves forward? And horizontal means the top of the saddle is leveled?

I am finding the 2022 VadoSL5 grips are really nice so didn't feel need to get Ergon GP1/GP2 yet. However, those innerbarends that Stefan has; could work well for me given I tend to put my hands towards the middle of handlebar all the time when I get tired holding on the grips on wider side.

May I know make/model of that horns setup? A link would be great.

What groupset is that?

Vado SL 5.0 non-EQ Kickstand was not included Computer stem mount not included Just finished first ride: - Can lock/unlock bike using phone - Smart ride mode is really good. Can ride for hours without changing power mode or gears; just pedal - Auto upload to Strava was nice - Love the...

About time the left remote gets replaced with grip autotune and right one with grip shift :) . Oh well IGH solves half so now only AutoTune with manual override

Should I add kickstand to the list? It will mostly be in garage at home, bike stand at work or riding.

New owner of Vado SL 5.0 (Brushed Aluminum). Debated a lot between v4 and v5. Definitely wanted front suspension, more upright, better TCU, and better gearing to tackle Seattle hills so $1k overspent to land v5. Going to use as is before doing any mods. List I have gathered so far: - Saddle to...
