I made the swap of chainrings between my wife's Como and my Vado. I had the chains stay with the chainrings and the whole process took about an hour with a break from the garage (115 degrees in garage today) mid way through process. It took me about 10 min to make a Missing Link removal tool...

Out bikes are only a couple weeks old. I will have the chains follow their respective chain rings. Thanks for the insights!

I have Vado 4.0 and wife has Como 4.0. She would like lower gearing while I the higher. Has anyone done this swap? I searched but did not find a reference. If so, what issues did you run into? Thank you.

Very nice!

Has anyone wrestled with the cables blocking the front light on a Vado 4.0? Just wondering what creative solutions others may have come up with. Need to maintain enough slack when turning handlebars. Thanks for any insights.

Thank you for the assessment.

Great information, thank you. I have been experimenting on a Turbo Vado 4.0. I rode the SL for a few days and exchanged it for the Turbo Vado. Reason was that the SL, a great bike, was not quite what I wanted for longer rides. The Vado 4.0 gives me something very different from my analog...

Your explanation is very clear, thank you. I will take this information and experiment with tuning to my riding style. I love this feature.

I am trying to better understand how assist ramps up within a range given by support and peak. For instance, if I defined Sport settings as 40 Support and 70 Peak my current understanding is that if I had a cadence of 80 without a lot of effort and switched to Sport mode, I would immediately...

On the Vado SL 4.0, in the early morning with little to no wind I can sustain 24/25 km with no power assist and about 30 km in Eco mode set at 35-35 in Mission Control. On the Turbo Vado 4.0, I just pedal easy on a flat without any power and in Eco mode easily sustain 33 km in Eco on a flat...

I have found your assessments of the Vado SL to be exactly what I have experienced over the first few days of owning a Vado 4.0 SL EQ. Your posts have been very insightful. I have compared several exercise routes that I have taken with my analog road bike with the Vado and found that I...

I am not sure about my needs yet as I just got the bike yesterday and haven't had a chance to test "my battery mileage". I'm hoping to get to it this weekend. Thanks.

How much is the range extender? I haven't looked into them yet. Just getting ready to ride some experimental rides to see if I can establish an efficient symbiotic relationship with the bike.

I wanted to thank everyone that gave me their insights and experiences about the Vado line of e-bikes. It proved to be valuable as I was test riding Turbo Vado 4.0 and Vado 4.0 SL bikes today. My LBS had both on the floor and as they are located not far from my house, I was able to ride both...

Thank you for the feedback. Going to do some test rides in a few hours. It will be interesting.

Will do.

I appreciate your insight. I also was wondering about the smaller chain ring on the 4.0. I suppose I could replace it with a larger 48t if needed and add some chain.

I have a line on one. Hopefully still available to see this week

I just joined the forum after spending quite a bit of time reading the many informative posts. I need some experienced advice and insights! I am a very long time cyclist (72 yrs young now), in very decent shape but getting older. I live in San Diego and love to ride. I have a Marin mountain...
