    Good new and bad news...

    Thanks, this is a pretty big specialized dealer in San Diego so I am sure they have checked the warehouses but have been coming up empty. They have to find one somewhere though. I will just be patient and wait it out.

    Good new and bad news...

    They told me that they are just not mass producing these things yet so they are hard to find even at other stores in California. And they are the only ones that sell these ebikes in San Diego. They are going to look elsewhere out of state so hopefully they can find one fast.

    Frame size. Need help.

    Anyone out their riding an extra large frame? I am 6' tall and kind of in between frame sizes of a large and extra large. My Specialized Roubaix Comp is an extra large (size 58) that I bought because I got a great deal on it because they had it new laying around for about a year and wanted to...

    Good new and bad news...

    I am a little excited now but a little bummed too. So I just went to my local bike shop to order mine and my wife's Turbo's and come to find out they can't find a Turbo S for me in a large frame anywhere. They said they won't stop looking until they find one. But on the bright side, I got my...

    Changing speeds while riding

    other than maybe going up a hill, is there really a need for more than one speed with an electric bike? I mean I went a took a long test ride again on the new Turbo S that I am getting in a couple weeks, and I was in a flat area so I never really changed gears and just left it in the lowest...

    Bicycle insurance

    Checked with my Farmers renters insurance and they will cover $15000 worth of possessions including our 2 Turbo's for around $200 a year so that's a relief. Didn't want to pay as much as car insurance... :-)

    Bicycle insurance

    Well crap I guess that's probably right then. $800 for a $7500 replacement coverage. Just can't pay that. And my wife is getting a $3000 base turbo too.

    Bicycle insurance

    I am getting a new Specialized Turbo S and thought I would check on some insurance. I got a quote from Velosurance just for theft and damage. Was over $800 a year. Does that seem right? I don't even pay that for my new $40K Jeep. I don't know if I can justify that even though the bike cost $7500.

    ebike insurance is outrageous

    Picking up a new Turbo S and a base Turbo for my wife next week. I was just looking into some insurance and just for the Turbo S was over $800 a year through Velosurance. Sheeesh, I don't even pay that for my brand new Jeep. Anyone have insurance that doesn't cost so much?

    More Turbo Photos

    Thanks good to know. Hey I asked you a while back in another thread about your grips. What size are they and what is that red ring in front of them?

    Will these fenders work on the 2016 Turbo S? And can I also add a Topeak rack on top of the back fender? Not sure if they will bolt down to the same screws.

    Does any suspension fork work on the Turbo or Turbo S?

    Well the 2016 S has the headlight on the handlebars so that's not an issue but I had the X and S side by side and the head tube on the S is an inch or 2 longer than the X so I think it will throw the geometry way off if I throw a standard shock fork on there. Maybe at some point someone will...

    Turbo mode throttle

    I know the 11/12 mph throttle mode on the Turbos is just a little bonus thing, but if you use it for any great length of time or miles at a time does it hurt the bike in any way? Or are you only supposed to use it in little spurts? Whats the longest/farthest anyone has ever used it for?

    Does any suspension fork work on the Turbo or Turbo S?

    Do you think the Turbo X fork would go right on the Turbo S without modifications or any issues?

    Does any suspension fork work on the Turbo or Turbo S?

    Well I plan on doing that too but would like a new front suspension fork also for the front end. I would assume it could be done if the Turbo X has one?

    Does any suspension fork work on the Turbo or Turbo S?
