That‘s what have her bike is running at, the listed minimum, but on the stock Pathfinders which seem stiffer. She’s about 125 lbs so could maybe she could run lower…. For me 5 psi makes a huge difference on my lower pressure (30-40) psi, unassisted, even fully suspended mountain and XC bikes...

Nice. That’s an awesome area to ride. I want to get my wife more comfortable on gravel and may try softer 42s for her and it looked like they fit well on your bike. Where we live summers in New England there are so many more gravel and fire road options than safe road options. But alas, she...

BTW, Been meaning to ask from the pic of your bike. Did you change tires and wheels, why and how do you like them?

Finito for now. Nothing novel or different on mounting using the Topeak SS straps cut to size with hose clamps and the M-Wave seat collar, but it looks OK and seems solid. I do like the lower profile RackTime ShineEvo rack on this small size bike but its not as narrow. Seems to be enough...

Yep. I was actually thinking about something like this. Used these clamps in the past a bit for mounting fenders on a bike I used to commute on in Seattle. If I do use those clamps I may just use the old standby stainless Topeak rack straps like others have but I’d maybe black paint or rubber...

That Cane Creek thud buster seat post doesn’t articulate much so I don’t think that will be an issue. I’m mostly not clear on how to attach the mounting bars (or tubes) to the rack? If I had gotten the non IMM version and angled mount tubes. I have just been looking for RackTime mounting...

So you can see what I’m dealing with using the ShineEvo 29” my wife‘s small Turbo Vado SL step thru. Here are some pics or the rack semi mounted without attaching up front to the seat post clamp or using the IMM mudguard it came with where there wasn’t enough clearance. There has to be a way...

Your setup looks good. Which RackTime Rack is that? Is it the Boostit with their hardware and a longer bolt on the standard seatpost collar? Agree, the RackTime site is very good for comparisons and schematics. I wanted the IMM mudguard to work more for the look and function wiithout a...

Mudguard to Top of the tire. No clearance with the mudguard under the rack and very very close mudguard clearance where screwed into the center of the seat stay bridge. Also the mudguard seemed more shaped for 26” wheels than 700c or 29. I am wondering if the rack could work without the...

Yes its frustrating and Specialized online orders doesn’t make returns easy if you can get them on the phone. Lots of stonewalling there, But maybe, if I can get another one from a local shop for a trip we are planning if not I will likely open this one up and DIY which is why I was asking...

Yep. Good point if stuffing is needed in the down tube to keep cables from rattling when the battery is removed. It its possible the rear hydraulic cable on my wife's Turbo Vado SL was not straight when the battery and motor were installed and is jammed. It makes no sense that the rear...

Thanks I have seen that video. Before I do that, preferably I’d like a more detailed mechanical drawing and to see if there are specific cable channels in the down-tube or what? The sales manager said its “tricky” to get it all back in there but said there may be cable slack in there. I am...

So removing the fork is no different than any other threadless headset bike. Done plenty of that. I just don‘t see where something in the head tube would impinge or take up cable slack based on the picture from the manual or outward appearance on where and the angle at which cables come out...

Thus far I have been unable to find something more shop technically oriented than the Specialized owner manual provided with the bike. Can anyone point me in the right direction to get that. I would like to see more on the internal cable routing thru the battery and motor bottom bracket...

I may explore that steering head tube sleeve you mention and see if any slack can be freed up. But it seems improbable to me since the cables come out of the down tube before the head tube. Is there any diagram of this? Does the headset have to be removed? I don’t want to replace these brakes...

I just got one of these and tried it. No dice. Not enough clearance.

Thanks, I wish I could just buy the bracket unless this light provided a flashing option.

I would like to move the light on my wife‘s Turbo Vado SL 4 to the using that threaded hole in the fork crown to clear up space. Is there an easy off the shelf GoPro mount solution for that?

Thanks. Love your logo BTW. I still have an old steel bike with 753.
