My Tero 5.0 also came with 118 links. Have you thought also about changing tires? Personally I like the Ground Controls - even on pavement they are noisy but ok for me. But the thought of doing a daily commute like yours @ Peartune speeds would have me thinking of swapping. 700c x 32 or 38...

Had a flat today. In contrast to the Vado SL, I found removing and reinstalling the standard Ground Control tires on the Tero very easy. No need even for tire irons in either case. Was handy to have a couple velcro straps to use as 3rd and 4th hands to reseat the tire tho.

I've a tero with mastermind. Tried out locking with Mission Control. Moving the bike off its stand was enough to trigger the alarm. Not very loud but the beep is persistent until I unlocked the bike via the app. Could also unlock with the remote controls. I don't anticipate ever using the...

Glad to see you got it working. They really need to add a high quality closeup like yours but showing the correct orientation. I remember when I watched the install video for the first time it looked like they were doing a number of twists and turning of the assembly - but it wasn't clear why...

I ordered thru the company (German) website: https://o-synce-shop.de/ Still appears to be in stock. At the time ordering with the discount code in the Blevo manual would apply a 20% discount. Not sure if that is still valid but can always try.

Also noticed 2 new videos on how to assemble road/gravel bikes and mtn/active bikes. Still didn't see the ship to home option for the Vado SL but maybe it is coming - so LBS could be cut out completely. As mentioned elsewhere, they now add the $15 environmental battery recycle fee. Wasnt...

And to make it more confusing, there is the 4.0 for 2.0, 2.1 and 2.2 motors. Then there is a separate product for 2.2 motors (2021-2022). Neither mention Tero tho.

My recently aquired Tero must have already had the updates installed as both the things you mention were already there. It was funny to see the option for the lock ask for a picture of the receipt. Didn't seem to do any cross check since the lock ability was granted right away. Also noted the...

Wheel circumference for my Tero 5.0 with 29 in 2.3 in ground control tires was set at 84.65 in (2150mm). The Vado 5.0 I demoe'd had 650B pathfinders and Mission Control had set that as 87 inches (2210 mm). Garmin calibrated wheel circumference of my Tero at 2238mm. Interesting that the 87...

Indirectly related I was having trouble with Blevo recognizing my hr sensor and osync remote. I usually was turning on my Garmin first since it takes awhile for it to locate gps. Tried a few times turning on bike, remote, Blevo and the garmin last. Seems to be more reliable sensor pickup for...

More likely that the number of LBS selling Specialized will diminish. Whether they fold or not will depend on how dependent they are on Specialized bikes for sales. There are still dozens of shops in the SF bay area that sell specialized - even after Mike's Bikes 12 stores no longer sell...

I think from the LBS perspective particularly smaller LBS, Specialized is slowly squeezing them out by prioritizing stocking website first and not giving the LBS access to that stock. Right now an LBS is lucky if they have floor models for some bikes available for walk in customers. However...

Although my web order was to pick up at my LBS, my experience was similar. Pointed to it, "there's the bike, there's the door" and out I go. This is the same shop where I have previously bought my Vado SL along with a couple other road bikes over the years. Very different experience. You...

I gave SFBA flex a call to see how after sale service would go. I got an answer on first ring. They indicated they would do the free initial service/check since the LBS I picked up from wouldn't. So I'll schedule that in a month or so. They've also indicated it would be a house call and they...

+1 so far with my experience with Pro's Closet. They were quick to respond with quotes as well as to questions I had. At least in the SF Bay area, they partner with a few LBS. So quotes are highest for Pro Closet credit, 2nd highest for those LBS credit and 3rd is cash. But the big news for...

Although the 4.0 is not available in the US, I looked at the specs from the Canadian website. If the website specs are accurate, 4.0 is pretty much the same as the 5.0 except for derailleur/levers and the motor. 4.0 has same fork and dropper post as 5.0. More importantly for me is that the...

Congrats on the bike and thanks for the nice writeup on SF Flex. Did the rep hang around while you did your test ride? The website service seems to imply service is a drop off/pickup at their will call locations, tho it sounds like they will come to your home for the intial service/check. Did...

I got a Tero 5.0 a couple weeks ago as well. Pretty much agree with you on the above. Having ridden my Levo SL off road up a +20% stretch littered with rocks and ruts or roots and ruts, I can say I am convinced there is no such thing as too much power. The 90 nm 5.0 can be dialed back but...

My garmins automatically detect and ask to connect to the ebike's ant sensors. Makes it very easy to set up with a new bike as I did when doing my demo rides. So that read only data is readily accessible. That raises the question whether an ant enabled phone could then connect to the sensors...

Tero vs Vado standover height is also due to longer fork on the Tero. I think this contribute to the extra steep slope of the Tero top tube. On my Large size Tero, the difference between the low and high points of the top tube is around 10 inches. So standover height really depends on where...
