Broke another spoke yesterday at 5500 km with the bike. It was almost 3500 km since the wheel was replaced for a new one because of this problem. Starting again?... we will see. I just replaced the spoke myself this time.

I don't think you need anything to do that. Just unplug your cable when your 4th light in the battery has started to blink. the 4th light in the battery means that it has at least 75% of charge. If you don't want to keep looking every time, just put a timer the first time to check how long it...

I found this video, very interesting. I knew the fact that not charging the battery to the 100% will make it last longer (of course, with the cost of having 20% less juice on them). According to him, charging it to an 80% you can increase the lifespan of your battery almost 3 times. I think...

If it's an alignment issue, you may check this video: https://www.parktool.com/blog/repair-help/rear-derailleur-hanger-alignment Otherwise, check other Park Tools video tutorials about how to solve derailleur problems. They are the best.

Couldn't you just have your measures using the Diagnosis tool? I think that Levo bike still uses the same port as older Turbo bikes.

Hi, As I posted before when I upgraded the chainring and the bottom bracket, I was gonna do a post about my upgrade of the rear derailleur and the change of my old cassette and chain. For the upgrades I selected the following components: - For the rear derailleur, I chose a Shimano XT M786...

Looks like a city bike, but without the fenders. It costs a little less than the Turbo FLR in it's days, around 3000 pounds, but now you can find this for around 2000 pounds new (at least in some stores here in Sweden). I only see it "sold out" in the UK store...

Is not illegal if you adapt your bike to comply with local regulations (mirror and plate number basically).

With the exact same bike as yours and almost the same upgrades, @Douglas Ruby, I did more than 4000 miles with the bike and I agree in almost everything. I had initial problems with spokes and lcd backlight screen failing of late, but once the wheel was replaced, everything went smooth. I can...

@rede Your phrases say it all "...here I am with a $5500 bike, and no service support." "Buying a $5500 bike from Specialized should have PLATINUM support." Sadly, this happens in most part of the world with Specialized, apparently. It's all about being lucky to find the proper bike shop. Most...

Reluctantly to leave the bike in the dealer and wait for like a month to get a replacement, we agreed that they will send me the new LCD screen so I could replace it myself. Here's the LCD replacement. You just have to remove 2 screws, pop out the old LCD from the metal frame, pop-in the new one...

Hi, If you're sure this break was not your fault (like breaking it in a normal ride and suddenly broke), check it with your bike shop. It should be covered by the warranty. If more spokes keep breaking all of a sudden, then your wheel is faulty and should be replaced for a new one. Since they...

I just wanted to tell my experience after changing the old crankset from this piece of crap and the standard Turbo chainring and crankset and pedals. JESUS! what a difference! I do not understand why I didn't do that before. I guess is because I was not sure about the components that I had to...

There's a better world. But it's more expensive.

I found a good balance myself at Eco60 and using Turbo only when having to pass someone or at high hills. Using the regen wisely will also increase range. With these settings, if not facing strong wind, I could make around 60-70 km / 37-43 miles with a 391 Wa battery. Not bad I think. It will...

As the world moves toward trying to make as less impact as possible to the environment and things more repairable, despite (yet) the opposition of many governments and companies, I think there will be some day, I hope, a way to replace the batteries of your bikes as changing the batteries of a...

No wonder. For less than 1000 grand you get what you've paid. If a super-duper Turbo bike that cost more than 2000 grand have issues, I can't imagine what a cheap bike will have. If I had to buy a cheap bike, I would go to a store, where at least i can throw it back to their faces if anything...

Wow, that's really impressive. I bought 5 pairs of Shimano B01S pads a year ago, and now I am just about to use the last one. I do not recommend them. I have to change them every 1200km /745 miles) in the best case, and I do not consider myself a person who use the breaks too often, except when...

I don't think that's possible, at least not with the Specialized software (with other methods, who knows). I saw many versions of the Diagnostic tool software, and none of them had the option to select beyond 28mph(45km/h). In some versions I saw more speed limits, but always between the...
