This forum reminded me to check again and I see some Creo 2 models are in stock on Specialized's website.

That's a cool mod. From the description I was skeptical because anything that simply adapted a non-UDH hanger would not be strong enough. But instead they made a bracket to bolt to the axle.

On my bike it was the brake rotors having a harmonic oscillation right at the frequency of the tire knobbles hitting the road at 16-21 mph. Different rotors with different stiffness made it go away.

The Aventure.2 torque sensor is better than the Aventure (1) speed sensor, but not as good as higher end mid-drive bikes with torque sensors. You should try them out to make sure you're getting what you want before spending money on it.

Beware you can only pair the bike to one app at a time. Usually it doesn't matter as long as you only launch one, but I accidentally launched the old one enough that I uninstalled it.

Even with that I added a head mounted lamp for looking around corners and stuff. Used to work in the old app but doesn't anymore. You can still use the app to customize the display on the bike and show HR right on the bike. I only care to judge if my effort is getting too high (or too low) so I...

In hindsight, if I had a Tero X 4.0 instead of a 6.0 I don't think I would have lost any real capability. That's despite the fact that I'm heavy and I live in a hilly area. I never would have drained the battery, and I never would have run out of power. I use TURBO about 1% of the time and TRAIL...

There's a whole thread about it: https://forums.electricbikereview.com/threads/anyone-have-experience-with-sram-eagle-transmission-on-any-specialized-e-bike.53455/ tl;dr It's the next generation MTB derailleur that can shift smoothly under full load.

I think the main think you'll notice is that the bike is very "pointy". It really wants to go where you turn it. It doesn't feel like a long bike unless you're fully stopped and trying to turn around. Compared to having a 29" in back, the 27.5" gives you another 5% in effective gearing, which is...

As far as I know, they never even made white in production. I've never seen one except in the promotional photos on Specialized's webfront.

Go to the bike page, look down along the right edge of the screen until you see "technical specifications". That will pop out a sidebar with lots of details.

Aventon lists it in their specs: 148 Link, 7 Speed. You'll probably have to buy two chains to get that many links.

The first thing I'd check is to make sure that you didn't lose a brake pad during the wheel change. You wouldn't expect the brake bleeding to be affected by removing and replacing the wheel

My Tero X 6.0 has the 90nm motor, so it may not apply to all bikes, but I ride in microtune 10/10 regularly and it's definitely more assist than "off".

If you're talking about Tero 3.0 specifically, they shipped originally as a class 1 (assist up to 20MPH) bike but increased it with a FW update to class 3 (assist up to 28MPH) which would explain particular interest in Tero 3.0 updates. 60-80 miles on a charge is definitely doable if you keep...

Since you're on the extreme end of sizing, and you want "a bike that rides like a bike", I would probably rule out the Soltera.2. Its only real advantage in your requirement list is that it has a throttle (which I think none of the others do) which is very compatible with "don't arrive at work...

It also helps to pedal more. This is why moving the seat back (which sounds backwards) is often recommended for hand numbness. When you're pedaling, the force of your legs is pivoting your weight around your butt, lifting up on the hands. A lot of bike fit guides assume you're pedaling hard the...

Forgot to answer this one in my first reply: It's a lonng bike and it has a very slack headtube, so if you park "nose in" to a rack meant to hold the front wheel, your frame will be quite far from anything lockable. The tire width isn't an issue -- 2.35" isn't really that wide (MTB are mostly...

I really wanted the white one but I didn't want to wait. So now I feel a bit relieved every time I see they still aren't making it. I can't say if it's "overly stiff". The suspension isn't squishy at all, though. I would say hand and wrist comfort has been the toughest thing to get sorted on...

There isn't going to be any one setting like that. Going uphill you'd want power to cancel out the weight. Going flat you'd need a lot less power (and mainly only when you start from a stop). Going downhill the weight is an advantage. I think your main choices are: Go into microtune mode and...
