Thanks for the response.....leaning towards having this done this week.

Has anyone removed the fenders from their Trek 8s or 9.9s? If so, were there any issues? I don't commute at all, and NEVER ride in the rain, so fenders are not necessary, and I hate the rear rack on this bike anyway. Thoughts?

Thanks....it rides great also....just a high quality product.

Awesome....looks great 👍 👌

I picked up my 2022 Specialized Vado 4 the other day, and was immediately stunned by the color. The red shown on the website does not do it justice. It is just a beautiful bike. I am not a fan of reflective (visible white line) stripping on the stock tires, so I had the LBS swap the stock tires...

I agree, for a total package, Specialized is HARD to beat. I love my Trek 8s with the Bosch Gen 4 motor.....but the Vado 4.0 and Vado 4.0 SL are complete packages. The Mission Control app is pure genius in my opinion...no offense to the Giant (I've owned 3) folks, as I loved the latest...

Very nicely done....thank you for the picture. Take care.

Has anyone figured out a way to mount a trunk bag on the 8s rack? I am going to ask the LBS if they have any suggestions....not a real fan of panniers, I don't commute enough to justify them.

Wow.....very unfortunate.

I agree....for such a nice bike, the display offered is a huge let down. Maybe for some it is not a big deal, but every time I would get on the bike, and have to place a second phone in there (I refuse to put my daily Samsung on that bracket), just feels odd. I power on my Specialized Vado or...

I did...was the only option at the time. Take the refund on a Giant Fastroad EX Pro....or try the Trek.

For the past 3 months using the Cobi app with the Smartphone Hub has left me very unsatisfied. After owning Giant e-bikes and Specialized, I think Trek and Bosch missed the boat when it comes to this display. First of all, when I get on my bike and go for a ride, I should NOT have to add a phone...

Sorry to hear about your woes. I use to own a Giant FastRoad EX Pro 2021 model year. I Purchased it back in February of 2022. For the initial 300 miles, it was great….torque was awesome, smooth ride, and my first 650b wheelset. Yet at around 300 miles or so the bike starting shutting off without...

Understood....my legs (59) are rapidly approaching 60....and I can tell you, more torque is better, especially for hills. In my experience, even in turbo mode, the SL could barely get up a steep hill on my normal 60 mile ride loop. Every bike I've owned gets tested on that loop, and the more...

Greetings….first off, they are both great bikes and products. The only advantage of having the SL would be if you live in an apartment and need to carry it up stairs. The SL really is light, nimble, and relatively fast on the flats. For my riding still, which is mostly paved bike trails and...

I owned a 2021 Vado 4 SL....loved the bike, but not enough torque for tough hills. Just ordered the 2022 Vado 4 in red.....should arrive soon. Thanks...

Nice bike.....thinking hard about purchasing the Vado 4.0......

I use the Ergon GP1.....for me, its perfect, even for long rides. I do use the GP5's on my Giant Explore E+2

Elkman....very well said and I agree. The more people out riding, improving their health, and forcing changes to cycle lanes, etc....it will make for a better environment for all. Thanks...

I agree. I am rapidly approaching 60, and I am an avid cyclist. Before I purchased my first ebike in July of 2021 (Giant Roam E+), I owned at that time 4 analog bikes....Trek 7.5FX, Raleigh Willard 2, Giant Escape 1 Disc, and a Cannondale Synapse 6. With any of those bikes, I could ride 30 to...
