    Heavy E Bike hitch rack with ramp?

    If you’ve had or know anybody that has had shoulder surgery, those are very good Velcro straps on harness (unfortunately I have 2)…. It’s what I use to secure my bike inside the Rv against the bench at three points, so far it has worked

    Vado 4.0. Change seat post due to short legs.

    Tip toes is good,, it will give you better leg extension, less fatigue if you ride more than 25 miles or so, I’m 5’6 with a medium Vado and my toes barely touch, do you have the seat post that came with it? It’s basically useless,I have the redshift seat post, it’s the smallest of the good seat...

    Vado 5 IGH - Squeaking Noise

    Should not be any back to front movement, but you can rock it towards you, it’s good as long as the 9 lobes are locked behind the teeth,

    Best replacement tires for NCM Moscow for urban settings?

    I installed the Schwalbe marathon plus tour 27.5x2.35 on my Vado, great tire not cheap, runs silent extra puncture protection, excellent grip, first thing I noticed very hard to lock rear wheel when braking, little hard to mount, I think they also are available in mtb

    Hello Everyone. Just getting back to biking after several decades busy raising children and running an electrical contracting business.

    We love having our 2 grandkids with us in the summer in our Rv (14-12) my grandson and I do bike rides and kayak trips. The experience cannot be replaced and only lasts awhile, but there is a lot of difference between doing it in our 70’s than our 30’s, good luck and God bless for what you’re doing

    Turbo Vado 4.0 2022 LHS Crank Removal problem

    I’m a specialized idiot and loving it…. Don’t know about the op… I have 140mm cranks on my Vado, because of leg injuries I can only bend my leg 90 degrees, a must to keep my foot on, this has very little effect on the speed or cadence…. Hmmm maybe a specialized idiot is smarter than a normal idiot

    Hybrid bike choice

    My Vado 5.0 has been flawless, had it since 2022 for full price, if you could find it used one sold here for 2500 bucks, I had a Cube in 2019, had quality issues with mine , could not get anybody on the phone, LBS is very important to me
