Tern has other bikes with 20" wheel bikes that come with Schwalbe Big Ben and Big Apple tires. I've had good success with these. I guess the bigger question is whether they fit the GSD rims. And if your GSD came with Super Moto X, I'm not sure you can do better in 20 inch wheel size. The Super...

@Ravi Kempaiah is correct about my experience with Nuvinci (Enviolo) and the R&M Charger - it was a struggle to cruise at 25 mph. 23 mph was a more realistic cruising speed. When I upgraded to a Charger with Rohloff, hitting 28 mph was not a problem. I could cruise comfortably at 26 mph in Sport...

Nice color options on the new GSD (just 4 of 8 below): Some good upgrades to lighting, suspension fork and optional drivetrains. Top model the Rohloff - I don't see a price yet - but has to be over $6K?

Anyone noticed a tube shortage? When I ordered my Schwalbe tires last week from their website, they were out of tubes. When I picked up my Specialized a couple of weeks ago, I purchased the last tube on the shelf at the LBS. The Specialized website shows out of stock on every tube size:

I had good experience w BikeInn but that was pre-covid. I ordered Schwalbes directly from their website last week. Arrived in about 5 days. They were out of stock on alot of items. Testing my new tires today.

Hi @Court or others. Dumb question here perhaps but does the forum currently have functionality for User Groups? For instance if I want to ask a question of @TrekAllant9.9sOwners (just for example) is there a user group I can create and we can join? If not, I'd suggest a process where we submit...

They used to have a touring bike which I owned - the Eclipse S18. Non-electric of course. The seatpost doubled as an air pump and it had a dynamo hub and a front rack for low-riders. They did tell me that 24 inch wheels were not a very popular choice for a folding bike so perhaps that is why it...

I mounted the Marathon E-Plus tires yesterday. Made a couple of amateur mistakes in the process but overall it was pretty simple. I only did a couple of miles around the block with 70 psi. I think 85 psi is max. The tires roll nicely. I felt they are more rigid versus the stock tires and as I...

I did a 40 mile ride to my office on Friday under good weather conditions. Just a 5-7 mile wind that was headwind for some of the trip. I charged the 625WH to 97% and estimated range at outset was 65 miles. I did not use a second battery and I didn't power my phone from the Cobi. I'd guestimate...

Yes, Rohloff E-14. I'm thinking it will be electric because of the weight. With Rohloff, suspension fork, and if they are promoting a kickstand then it must be something heavy duty? But Tern currently does not have a non-electric cargo option so maybe that is a possibility.

I will hazard a guess at an updated GSD. Gen 4 Bosch. Belt. Atlas kickstand. Brakelight. Is Is Bosch's ABS ready yet?

Schwalbe Marathon Plus:

Belt drive?

It has a brake light and a suspension fork - that's about all I got:

One thing I can empathize with in the plight of @GuruUno is the difficulty of communication with the Specialized dealer. Yes, for brands with a dealer model, the dealer should be the first tier of tech and customer support. But my recent experience with purchasing my Vado SL showed that the...

What is it? Will it be e-powered? Hammer smashes light bulb - not electric?

I ordered the GP3s. I've had them before and I didn't use the horns very much probably because I live in flatlands. But I looked around at various sites and didn't find a better alternative. I did one 15 mile ride on the weekend with the range extender. And toggled-on the Mission Control...
