    2022 Turbo Vado SL 5.0 Garmin 530 power cadence

    Also when you go for a ride, do you start the mission control app and your Garmin? Trying to figure out when I would track my ride via mission control?

    I'm not using any non-garmin ebike multi field thing either.

    2022 Turbo Vado SL 5.0 Garmin 530 power cadence

    I think I saw some threads on here where someone is saying they can get cadence and power using the ebike ant+ sensor pairing with specialized ebikes. I have a turbo vado SL 5.0. I only get cadence and power if I add those as separate sensors in my Garmin. I've tried removing and re-adding...

    Specialized Turbo Vado SL: An Incredible E-Bike (User Club)

    Since I'm waiting around for my bike and thinking about it a lot. Any suggestions on tuning the % support/power? Not sure what the defaults are. Maybe it is already set this way. Also I haven't used the Specialized system. What I think I'm looking for, based on my eMTB (Giant), is: Low...

    Sold

    Bought a little over a year ago from REI for my wife who has a disability. She only rode it about 3-4 times. Bike is in new condition. She is no longer able to ride it. I paid $2800. Great Bike, just no longer able to ride. The great thing about this bike is that it uses an internal 8...

    Specialized Turbo Vado SL: An Incredible E-Bike (User Club)

    I think the 2022 5.0 doesn't come with the TCD, correct? That's what the LBS said anyway. Any reason for me to get it with a Garmin 530? Seems like no. Also anyone have a good lightweight lock that you use attached to frame? One of those cafe wheel locks? Just looking for something if...

    Bike Path Dirt Road Bike Mountains

    Yeah...I don't need a full suspension. I already have one. New Giants are different battery anyway, so no point in staying with Giant. Also..Giant didn't make a bike that really fit what I needed.

    Specialized Turbo Vado SL: An Incredible E-Bike (User Club)

    Seems like the Vado SL 5.0 has a rear light integrated in the seatpost, so maybe it won't be possible without losing the light. I guess I'll try it without first.

    ok...posted my question on what bike to buy in the other forum, but test road a Turbo Vado SL 5.0 this afternoon. Sold. Should be ready in a couple of days. Test road the 4.0 around the parking lot. Feels like my old Cannondale Quick Carbon but with help. Really liked the fact that it was...

    Bike Path Dirt Road Bike Mountains

    Went and tested a Specialized Turbo Vado SL 5.0. Exactly what I was looking for. Found a hill to ride up and it was just enough power to help me. Waiting for mine to be built!! Woohoo. Only wish they some other color choices.

    X35 Extender Battery

    Hi, I don't know where to get the extender, but wondering about your experience with the H30. I'm a bigger guy also. I live in the mountains of Colorado (used to live in flatter terrain). So I was looking for a little help going up hills, but not a full blown ebike. Was wondering if you...

    Who's got a Current?

    Yeah. They did Yeah. They did offer me a small discount but even with that, it's about $700 difference between Shimano via Costco and Eviolo via Priority with coupon.

    Who's got a Current?

    Anyone ridden both Shimano and Enviolo? I was excited and almost pulled the trigger because of the reviews and the Costco discount. Priority sent me the gear inches and I finally decided on getting one with enviolo, because of the better hill climbing for the stuff out here in CO. Sad...
