    Vado SL 5.0 -- It's Here!

    Man.. the Vado SL would be a perfect XC bike with slight rear suspension and a lightweight fork..

    2022 Vado IGH - No Thread?

    Thanks! I'll study hard and report back on any tips and tricks! RE the Weight, its not really noticeable in use imo, seems a bit heavier than the allant +8. I test rode a Vado SL as well and that is a fun, quick, super light bike; Specialized should probably keep the SL motors for commuters/road...

    2022 Vado IGH - No Thread?

    Just picked up a 2022 Vado 5.0 IGH thanks to the wonderful insight and INSISTENCE 😂 of Mr. Stefan Mikes! He was correct though.. these Vado's are just fantastic! At first, the IGH was kind of throwing me off because the gearing doesn't.. I guess bite down, like a normal shifting bike.. ie at the...

    Levo SL - De-restrict?

    Lol I'm just learning about the different bikes available and how they function. Brose and Levo vs SL vs Bosch vs Fauza vs Shimano RS etc. The weights, geometrys, motors etc all seem to matter in what makes the overall of the bike

    Levo SL - De-restrict?

    Ahh maybe im thinking of how the full motor bikes have a "cutoff" and you notice right away

    Levo SL - De-restrict?

    This would be my reasoning as well. It makes more sense imo, to manage the level of assist in an app, vs at the pedal, since the app method seems like it would be smoother than the motor just stopping abruptly

    Levo SL - De-restrict?

    This is actually really good info; I also found a similar thread here that provided perspective on RPM cadence and attributed bike speeds: https://electricbikereview.com/forums/threads/help-my-emtb-go-faster-tech-says-it-cant.28468/ @Timpo helped a ton in that one too! Thank you so much all for...

    Levo SL - De-restrict?

    Just somewhat curious if it could be made to be a psuedo XC bike, as not many exist.. Really its only the Orbea rise right now

    Levo SL - De-restrict?

    I'm curious.. has anyone derestricted an Levo SL (if its even possible)? If so, do you get any pedal "spinout" above 20mph? ie the Pedals not really engaging the gears at higher speeds? Also, what does your range look like after destricting?

    My updated Trek Domane +HP review - now with 4565 miles on it

    Interesting.. Thanks! Trek support pointed me to the ALR model if a rear rack was needed, so clearly incorrect information

    My updated Trek Domane +HP review - now with 4565 miles on it

    Per Trek, they dont recommend Rear rack on the Domane +Hp due to the carbon frame, has anyone had issues with their frame and the racks?
