    Specialized Mission Control App Details & Settings

    I get the same "trying to get location" message just after I complete a ride. As you say, it's good in Strava or Komoot and also appears in the Specialized "Ride" app in the activity feed. After a while (not sure how long) the ride appears in the Mission Control App.

    Turbo Vado SL 5.0 2022 - MasterMind TCU/TCD

    Thanks. I’ll start with Mission Control on my phone as I have the phone case and mount already so no additional expense. I may switch to using a Garmin since my phone’s battery is showing it’s age.

    Turbo Vado SL 5.0 2022 - MasterMind TCU/TCD

    After weeks of research, I'm about to purchase a Turbo Vado SL 5.0 2022 and I have a couple of questions: Will it have the MasterMind TCU installed? Does it come with the TCD, or is that only with the Equipped version? If it doesn't have the TCD, Should I purchase it, get an alternative like...
