On page 9 of the Specialized bicycle manual it states that "all bikes with built in rear mounts" can support up to 55 lbs. of weight. This includes their carbon bikes. Another person in this thread claims to have contacted Specialized directly with this question and was answered with the 5 lb...

Put the Creo on an accurate trainer and you'll get your questions answered.

There's no such thing as an undefined "reasonable offer" since, well, it's parameters are not defined. So, for instance, what is the mileage on the wheels? Can you send me a photo via email (hmiller at optonline dot net). I'm in New York on Long Island.

How much would you sell them for?

Thanks for the confirmation/reply. I actually bought the speed magnet (it was very inexpensive) in anticipation of buying an extra set of wheels some time in the future. No wait for me! ;)

In getting this wheelset ready for your Creo did you also place the speed sensor magnet on the rear wheel too? Isn't that absolutely necessary? Besides that, what other modifications had to be made to work with the Creo?

He wrote, "I did turn off the power (press/hold) the Selector Button when it seemed reasonable with downhills." I interpreted this that he pressed and held the on/off button (electric power as opposed to the power selector) but I may have erred. Kahn will have to verify but it's all just a minor...

Sorry for the long wait in the reply (didn't see it). I got that information both from online somewhere and directly from Specialized help in direct communications. I've noticed that, when starting with a widely different battery charge value, that over time this value difference is reduced...

Kahn, you don't have to completely turn off your power to save energy on the downhills. When you stop peddling downhill there is no power used. If you leave your TCU on there is a bare minimum use of power (put that in stealth mode but, truly, we're talking 1 or 2 watts per hour or so when not...

I realize that, officially, there's the "limp" mode which is supposed to switch on at 20% or so. Fact is, for my system (Creo SL Carbon Comp), this doesn't occur until under 10% and, from what I understand, the limp mode is what was programed for ECO, not sure though. If that's true then one can...

The ride I'm planning is 72 miles. I've tweaked the system to obtain 1-1/2% of battery per mile on level one and 2-1/4% per mile on level 2. Level 3 is 100% and is used only for short times on very steep hills. If I'm VERY assiduous, I can shut the electricity off while going downhill (I have a...

Hi Kahn, No, I didn't learn a thing since my first post here and still have this question standing, without answers, but I changed my ideas about what to do, as follows: As of now, without certainty as to how the Creo SL program would respond, my strategy is to first use the RE [Range Extender]...

Yea, but does this Garmin utility work on the Creo SL, as asked originally?

For the Specialized Creo SL, when using the Range Extender (RE) one can opt to have the batteries used equally. But, when the point I want to reach requires using two REs what may be the best strategy? I think that allowing both batteries to go down and then connecting the full second RE is best...

No, the Terrano units deal with wind noise SUPER well, virtually eliminating it.

Here's one that works. You only have to finagle it a bit to conform to your actual result, after setting it up to as close as you can to what you are dealing with, and thereafter you bookmark it and it will give you pretty accurate results: https://www.bosch-ebike.com/us/service/range-assistant/

I doubt if even one person will be selling their Creo for any alternative currently on the market. The weight difference and top assisted speed is decisive in terms of the market. For those who think that the weight isn't critical, the weight of the bicycle and how its distributed makes a huge...

The Specialized warranty is life on the frame for the original owner and 2 years otherwise. How is that 1/10th the BH warranty? The Creo is about 8-10 lbs. lighter and its frame geometry is perfect for gravel and road. One can opt for a "Range Extender" which adds another 160wH so one has a...

You can hold your breath, the aluminum version is out, now. I have the Creo SL Comp Carbon and it's AMAZING! I haven't had this kind of fun riding with the strong riders in my clubs for almost 40 years!
