see post #10 above, problem solved

It won’t. The charger will deliver power at about the same rate, so it will take about the same time as it would to charge them sequentially. The Y-cable just offers the convenience of not having to return to switch the connector. Disappointing :(

Hey @Oberst - sounds like you have a great LBS! Where in the US are you located?

Specialized’s recommended max tire are widths are conservative, probably to allow for mud clearance. We live in the dry southwest US and have run 50mm wide 650b Soma Cazadero tires (measure a true 50mm on an i30 rim) and 47mm wide Specialized Tracer 700c tires (measure a true 47mm on the i21...

@abercrombie - that's definitely not normal! Which model is it? We have two Creo Comp Carbon EVOs (Praxis cranks) that have seen a lot of rough trail miles, and the chainrings remain rock solid. I can't tell from your video, does the spider move on the shaft? Or, do the spindle and crank arm...

Hey Shakey - I'm close to your size (5'11"/33/33) and ride a LARGE Creo EVO. Fit is perfect. Like you I also ride a Large Levo SL (and Large Levo and Large Stumpjumper), so I would expect a Large Creo to work best for you. I did switch to a 90mm stem on the Large Creo as I ride off-pavement a...

I think the only way you can avoid the drop in power you’re seeing at the end of the RE discharge is to set Mission Control to use both batteries at he same rate. It takes a bit more effort to recharge both, but it’s worth it if you need both. (My understanding is that it’s also a little mote...

I think your Vado 4 came with Trigger Sport 700x47 tires. These are 60tpi, have a wire bead, and weigh ~600g. You might take a look at Specialized's Pathfinder Pro. Thes Pros are 120tpi, are foldable and tubeless ready, and weigh 540g (700x42) or 480g (700x38). Either size is probably OK on...

Similar experience here in the U.S. with my 2018 Vado 6.0 And later, after I purchased a Specialized Creo and listed the Vado for sale, folks were lined up to buy it. Spesh seems to be leading the way...

Worth watching if only for the stunning photography by Claudio von Planta, the cameraman who accompanies Ewan and Charley on a regular motorcycle.

some thoughts - DI2 shifting is sweet, but the GRX group is very nice and I much prefer the feel of the GRX levers to old-school Ultegra levers. YMMV. Carbon wheels, MEH. I require them on my mtb, but they don't seem necessary on a motorized road bike. The R470s are pretty light in any case...

You might try replacing the Praxis wave ring with a standard Narrow-Wide type ring designed for 1x systems. We’ve had good luck with these riding in rough terrain. See posts 62 and 67 in this thread...

Inexpensive and easy to install, 70mm. Do miss the control on the bar at times.

Wyoming winter cold is bad for them. Ship the bike to me in So. Calif. and I’ll keep I charged for ya the next six months. ;)

Look closely, they’re different bikes.

Hey John, It really depends on what type of riding you like. If you lean toward the moto side of things then the more powerful the ebike the better. As Sierratim has pointed out the 250W nominal power bikes actually put out close to 800W peak power which will get you up the hill pretty darn...

Yes, the OEM Praxis chainring is threaded with screws that attach directly so we had to buy standard chainring bolts. We ordered 42t and 44t Founo narrow/wide 110 BCD chainrings on eBay for ~$20 each...

I use it all the time off-road, no issues. That's why it's there. Modern chains can deal with pretty extreme 1X chain lines. (I'm currently using it with a 42t Narrow/Wide chainring, but it was fine with the 46t Praxis.) Just keep your chain clean and lubed, and make sure the B-screw is...
