    Vado Front Sprocket Change 40T to 48 Tooth Who has done this ?

    I’ll post a list of parts, tools used and snap some photos. The only question right now will be the exact number of chain links. Also still debating which guard or perhaps none. Gear ratios appear to shift everything ~one gear: curious how that will translate to ‘feel’ while riding.

    Vado Front Sprocket Change 40T to 48 Tooth Who has done this ?

    I should be finished tomorrow. My new chainring isn’t tapped, so I had to order new bolts, which are two piece without replacing the guard, at least not yet. I should snap some photos of the old cassette (which I replaced) you can see I only rode on the smallest 2 sprockets as most of my...

    Chain ring tooth selection

    I just purchased a 48tooth chainring, new cassette and longer chain. I’ll make the upgrade this weekend when the chain gets here. This is at just over 1000miles this year: I’ve been riding my Vado around town like I stole it, which has resulted in quite a bit of tooth wear: hence the...

    Vado 4 Battery Charger :

    The problem with much faster charging would be cooling the battery. I don’t believe they make any other charger or battery made for faster charging.

    VADO 1.0 5% battery - motor cuts off - then returns at 4%

    Yes, all batteries at those low levels will not perform the same as those in the say: 20 to 80% range.

    Como 4 battery won't lock in

    This sounds very odd, if there is any ‘unreasonable’ resistance, try turning the key as the locking mechanism could be in the way. I drop the bottom end in first and sort of rotate it into place and there is a nice ‘click’ with little resistance. Then wiggle to make certain it’s fully...

    front chain ring question for Vado 4

    There’s another thread on this with tables...I’ll find and link. The short answer is: yes 38 will be noticeable. Personally I’d rather go up as I like to ride fast and rarely climbing steep hills with the lower stock gears.

    New bikes transport to home!

    I would lay them down and use moving blankets. Unless you can strap them upright where they won’t contact each other, that would be better....not sure what options and equipment you have for this move. If nothing else assume they’re going to get bounced around unless welll secured/protected....

    Connecting Vado 5.0 with Garmin

    I’m connecting the watch to strava, then setup biking on the watch. Strava has whatever you name your bike, ‘Vado’, if you use the same name ‘Vado’ on the watch Strava combines all the data regardless of source..meaning either from the watch or from the specialized app. The watch offers a...

    Connecting Vado 5.0 with Garmin

    Yes, I use the VivoActive 4 with my Vado. Lots of data. At the moment none of it is working on the Garmin side as they are in the middle of a ransomware attack.

    Mission Control Stats, Data, Rides, etc.

    Not really something that will have a simple set of steps.

    Mission Control Stats, Data, Rides, etc.

    You could download all the rides as XML files and compile your own stats to your liking, without any outside app.

    Mission Control Stats, Data, Rides, etc.

    You can access all your rides from the app without the bike being actively paired. That said, the data is only each ride, not a dashboard with overall statistics compiled. Depending on what you want to see you may either want to pair it with something like Strava or use another device like...

    Vado headlight flashing

    Yes, it’s night and day different and an easy fix....shame so many bike shops don’t check that straight away: at least where legal.

    Vado headlight flashing

    If they did a rebuild, make certain they change from the 25kmh limit (which is on most likely) to off.

    It’s a coded message: write down the number of flashes for the year and we’ll decode this winter.

    Turbo Como 5.0 Low Entry attachment points on battery cover

    I can say: I tried putting the Abus Bordo folding lock on here; too tight. I've been thinking of adding some brackets to effectively change the orientation from the top to the side mount. (The issue would be potential leg interference).
