    Using Heart rate with Mission Control, Smart Control

    Forget Apple for this kind of need. Apple Watch are unable to connect on a Specialized bike or even the app. Tried to focus on watches that have ANT+ connectivity like Garmin watches. I have a Garmin Venu 3 and I was able to connect it on my Turbo Tero X.

    Turbo Tero X - Steange behavior from the anti thief option

    Hi everyone ! Today I rode my Turbo Tero X and everything was fine. After my ride, I parked my e-bike at my home, turned it off and didn’t remove the battery. After a while, I decided to put my e-bike in the garage so I moved it without powered it and the alarm went on. Normal behavior as I...

    Stromer ST1 vs ST2 in 2024

    In the US, the ST1 motor has a power of 670W with a torque of 35NM and the ST2 had a power of 750W with a torque of 40NM but the gear range is better on the ST1 (398% vs 295%)

    Stromer ST1 vs ST2 in 2024

    Pinion seems great. Cleaner than derailleur and sometimes an oil changing. You can change gears at stop but not under load. So a little bit less sporty than derailleur. Maybe the fact that you need to turn the shifter may be a little bit strange at the beginning. If you have the possibility...

    Cruise control

    My comprehension about Cruise Control on the Stromer is a sort of recuperation mode that is allowing you maintaining a chosen speed on downhill. While the classic recup mode just slow you down depending on the amount you choose.

    Hypotheticals - would you replace your R&M with another R&M??

    Yes. It’s great that Switzerland had a good law for high speed e-bikes. That means this type of transportation is a real alternative to cars. We can use bike lanes but we need to cut the motor off on those who are forbidden for mopeds.

    Tires recommandations for R&M Roadster Touring HS

    Thanks @Stefan Mikes ! In my country the reflective strip is required. If the tires don’t have it, we need to put some orange reflective stuff on the wheel. Black reflective strip will be totally ok 👌🏻!

    Hypotheticals - would you replace your R&M with another R&M??

    Certainly yes but with another model. Maybe the Charger4 GT Rolhoff HS with the PowerMore. I tried a 2017 Stromer ST2 and it was a beast despite his weak condition (cracking bottom bracket, strange handlebar orientation, strange font fork behavior during braking). The Stromer I need for my daily...

    Tires recommandations for R&M Roadster Touring HS

    Hi there, Hope you're all doing well. I'm the owner of a R&M Roadster Touring HS (speed bike) and I'm looking for tires recommandations. The stock tires are Schwalbe G-One Allround (700x40c) with reflective side. Great tires but I needed to change them after just one year. My bike shop changed...

    Spotted an older R&M in Switzerland

    Lausanne want to be a big bike friendly city and a lot of things are made to promote the bike itself : Help with the purchase, make the city center less attractive for cars and the government that promotes soft mobility. Parents understood that they could save a lot of time by bringing their...

    Spotted an older R&M in Switzerland

    I’m a little bit late but I hope you enjoyed your stay in Switzerland and Lausanne. I’m from Switzerland and I work in Lausanne. I travelled three times in New Zealand and I love it. Each time it was time to flight back in Switzerland I cried. I suspect that the old R&M is a 2016’s Roadster

    I am a Turbo Tero X 5.0 owner

    Oh, I forgot to share with you a little bug that I encountered with the Specialized App. One day, after several days not using my bike, I decided to take it for my daily commute. I started it and after a little while I realized that I no longer had any assistance. Nothing. I tried to remove...

    I am a Turbo Tero X 5.0 owner

    I’m so used with the Supernova mini-Pro with it’s 1600 lumens that I’m now worried that the upgrade will not be enough. Well I will see and if needed I will add a rechargeable front light. Thanks for sharing this with me.

    I am a Turbo Tero X 5.0 owner

    I’m from Switzerland, the French part 😀 Thanks Stefan for your input. The reason I want the HRM with my Turbo Tero X is for the possibility to adjust the assistance based on the HR. I tried yesterday to adjust the assistance on the HR but I never found the option in the Specialized App. Maybe...

    I am a Turbo Tero X 5.0 owner

    Hello everyone ! At the end of October 2023, I bought the Turbo Tero X 5.0 in the Oak Green color (absolutely gorgeous color by the way). I wanted this kind of e-bike for my commute to work as my route is very hilly and mostly with very bad asphalt and a lot of potholes and bumps. I was used...
