I would probably get the Salza Cutthroat as a mechanical bike for Tour Divide. The specifications can be compared to see how much the Creo differs from an ideal bike. https://salsacycles.com/bikes/cutthroat/2020_cutthroat_grx_600 Front Wheel WTB Speedterra Hub, WTB ST i23 TCS 2.0 32h...

My 2015 Specialized Diverge has a surprising amount of flex. If you push all of your weight on the frame to bend the bike like a pair of skis, the bike flexes much more than you might expect.

Tire chart for 20mm inner rim width is 30mm to 50mm tire width. https://www.wtb.com/pages/tire-rim-fit-chart#

The inner rim with is 20mm https://www.dtswiss.com/en/components/rims-road/endurance/r-470 I bold faced the features that appealed to me. The specifications read more like a mountain bike than a road bike...

The Turbo Creo SL EVO, and its gravel-ready builds, will take you off the beaten track farther and faster than you ... the Turbo Creo SL was created to make the most of 650b wheels too, with room for massive 47mm tires. The Specialized site is down. Finding the inner rim width is difficult...

I find small amounts of adjustments are much better than larger amounts for bikes. Minimal adjustments generally makes me happiest. Just about any bike can be made to perform some task. The question is how to optimize under certain circumstances. The answer probably lies in inner rim width. I...

I tend to get out of the saddle at every opportunity. When going downhill on a full suspension bike or uphill on a road bike. I like to feel the pressure of my foot on the pedals. I like to feel the tires.

I forget what combination of rim and tire yields greatest air volume. Tire clearance is a crucial factor. I think the bike can be tweaked to cover a surprising amount of overlap. I will have to think about this carefully. The car causes me most concern. We tested the gravel-oriented Turbo Creo...

Maybe a few pairs of rims with different tires will provide enough flexibility to deal with the wide variety of conditions?

Certainly underbiked. I like the removeable battery in the Domaine. The Creo main battery is practically fixed. The Domaine is easier to recharge and lighter when a battery is unnecessary. I will test ride a Domaine. I have tubless tires in my Specialized Diverge. Adjusting tire pressure...

If you read prior posts, your questions will be answered. The "eBike" i am interested in is a Specialized Creo Evo, which are currently sold out in USA. I want to ride the Tour Divide from Canada to Mexico. I need a car with 110VAC inverter to recharge the battery in the Rockies wilderness. I...

I intended the previous post to be my concluding remarks. However, i finally realized how to accurately express my intentions. I consider hybrids and conventional Internal Combustion Engines (ICE) to be the same type of vehicle. I differentiate ICE vehicles by their low (12VDC) or high (300VDC)...

My philosophy is to invest in the electrical system. The charger is most important to me. Having adequate HV battery to recharge eBike battery over a long distance is second in priority. Many related software features are also important, like Battery Hold or to control when engine is...
