    Turbo Vado Tubeless?

    Wife and I have 2019 Vado 3.0’s, with tubes. We just got new Levos and paid $20-ish each to have them converted to tubeless. Can our Vados be changed to tubeless? If so, ballpark price? It’s sure easy to pull out a thorn and spin the tire instead of sitting on the side of the roadway with...

    Pre-sales advice: Vado 4.0 for Seattle hills?

    My wife and I are 60 years old, but in fairly good shape for that age. Two years ago we bought Vados, I think they are the 3.0’s. You will have no problem climbing any hill, if you shift to 1st gear and use the highest motor assist. We ride around Ventura, CA and there is a very steep hill...

    Pannier for Vado

    I just bought a set of Ortlieb panniers for my Vado and my wife's. They clip on in just a couple of seconds and fit well. They are very well made and waterproof. Well worth the money if they will work for you.

    Changing kph to mph on 2020 Turbo Vado 3.0

    I posted this in the main part of this forum, but thought I'd have better luck here. Anyone know how to make the screen read mph instead of kph? I went into Mission Control, but that didn't help.

    Does the Como have a headlight and taillight? I don't think it does. I picked the Vado for this reason, in case I'm late getting back from a ride, I'll have lights.

    The Ultimate Mid-Drive Chain Care Thread

    Anyone tried Brake Cleaner for a car, to clean their bicycle chain? You'd need to take the chain off the bike because brake cleaner destroys paint. It is $5 a can, aerosol, and comes with a spray tube. It will leave the chain squeaky clean and ready for your favorite lube.
