Who is to know, quite frankly, there is a lot of stagnant/dead-wood, know nothing associates, so if they get rid of those....we'll all be much better off.

Hopefully, one of the positive aspects is that maybe they will fire that A-Hole Nathan in "Rider-I-Don't-Care"....life will be so much better without him! :)

Out of curiosity, what is to be gained from the reset by performing the action as specified if you are the original owner vs. if you are a 2nd owner of the bike? What type of info is it that is retained that is being reset?

Saw this, and sharing, (on a Facebook group) Mastermind TCD goes crazy........ I was out for a ride on my Turbo Vado 5.0 with IGH over the weekend when the bike went loopy. Not sure what I did, but for some reason, the fastest I could go was 6MPH (10KPH). Didn't matter what assist level was...

I just hit 3,000 miles since I got my Vado 5.0 on June 4th this year and it is running like a Swiss watch!

On my Vado 5.0, I usually set Mission Control'Smart' setting to anywhere between 25 to 50 miles, and never worry about having enough to ride. Very rarely do I ever need to use Turbo.

So, being a fussy perfectionist, I asked the LBS to research the serial number of the acquired Vado 4.0. The spec sheet shows: Specialized TCD-W w/ handlebar remote & built-in anti-theft feature, Bluetooth® connectivity, 5 available display pages So....I should be golden!! The...

Awsome!. Now that I see the process, even though I could do it, I'd rather pay the dealer to do it. Now, all I have to do is get the bike to the LBS down there and hopefully have it done by March 1st. Thank you for the link, fantastic find.

I also, recently got a 2019 Vado 4.0 to use in Florida while on vacation(s). 147 miles, $1,400, flawless condition. Being sight unseen, I may (or most likely will not) be in for any surprises. But to be proactive, I did pickup the BLOKS to TCD-w conversion kit, so in the event, it is needed, I...

Ugggh...maybe, just maybe, they could offer an offset to apply to a new 2022 or 2023 Vado? It might be worth the effort.

Looks like an absolute killer bike! Good luck. I do see it is sold with the carbon belt and Rohloff hub....you did not get that one?

Have we been apprised of the brand/type of bike you have chosen?

So, do you get a 2022 frame?

So, as a follow-up specific to this thread...I've done several rides since the new firmware was installed (well over 100+ miles) and the "feelings" have either been absorbed by my brain or are non-existent as initially described. If anything, very similar or maybe a tad better than before...

"My bike shop said upfront that they don’t and never intend to carry this model in stock" Almost identical words from several LBS shops here also.....

I am 100% in agreement with 'dynamic'. Spot on. Having had 2 Vado 5.0 IGH's and returned them both within 30 days, and having had nightmare experiences, I too agree it's way too early to put these IGH models in service. Regardless of the parts being around for a while, in use by other...

So, I've not addressed this with the LBS as of yet, I will very soon, however, as having been faced with an identical issue (of the nature of those "push" buttons), this YouTube video shows a similar 'fix' for a button/switch (similar to the handlebar switch having the issue). To jump around...

So first, these are the 'fixes': MOTOR FIRMWARE RELEASES Bike: Vado MY20-22 / Como MY20-22 / Tero MY22 Motor Firmware 8.1.5 (Specialized 2.2) Release date: 15/11/2022 Replaces: 7.4.1/2 Features No additional features Fixes Bug fix for mis-triggered over current error causing the bike to...
