Thanks, If I knew then what I know now I would have bought the 37-622 tyres! I’ll wait a bit longer to see if the rub is liveable with before another change.

After I got a rear tyre puncture yesterday I decided to change the rear tyre from the original Nimbus II sport ( very difficult to remove from rim by the way!) to Schwalbe Marathon E plus 700 x 38, I immediately noticed a very slight rubbing of the tyre on the mudguard. I thought that both...

Thanks, looks as though I’ll have to shorten the new chain then, what a nuisance!

Hi, I measured the stretch on my chain today and after 1600 miles it’s showing almost 0.5% so I want to put a new chain on my 2022 Turbo Vado SL5, can anyone tell me if the SRAM PC NX Eagle Chain 12 speed 126 Links will need any links to be removed if going onto original set up (SRAM NX Eagle...

I also found the saddle on the SL5 uncomfortable, after a few rides I decided to change it the saddle from one of the bikes that I now ride much less frequently, a Bontrager saddle which I find much more comfortable.

Yes, largest but one, it’s a 12 speed cassette.

It does work! I’ve just tried it out on a 7% hill (there’s not much steeper around this part of Cambridgeshire) in the 11th gear and it seems to work fine. When I’m pressing the walk assist button the back goes forward up the hill with the pedals turning, when I take my finger off the assist...

Thanks Stefan, I am going to try it out again, this time on a hill in a low gear to see if that makes a differenc.

Holding it down continuously.

Hi, I have a couple of questions about the walk assist on my turbo Vardo SL5. If I press the walk assist button with the motor assistance set to off it does not going to walk mode. If I put the motor into eco and press the walk assist button ‘walk‘ comes up on the mastermind display and I can...

I meant mission control app on the smart phone, sorry to confuse you.

I have now completed 1000 miles on my Turbo Vado 5.0 SL EQ. I am very pleased with it, I can ride at whatever level of assistance I require depending on how much exercise I want and usually ride with the motor off if on the flat. The only modifications I made have been to change the saddle and...

I can mount my smartphone on my handlebars and get the information from the mastermind TCU that I want to view from the mastermind app on my phones screen which is really easy to view.

I bought a 2022 turbo Vado Sl 5.0 EQ it had the Mastermind TCU installed, did not come with TCD and I don’t think it is necessary with the Mastermind. I think it’s a great bike for my needs, I love it!

Yes, that works, thanks Stefan.

Hi, Is it possible to delete a single ride or indeed clear the ride history in Mission Control as recorded onto my smartphone? I don’t seem to be able to find any way to do this. Thanks

Yes, it‘s there. Thank you!

The control for assistance level etc.

Hi, I’m thinking of reducing the width of my handlebars or possibly changing the handlebars completely. It’s simple to see how to move the brake and gear leavers as well as the grips which all have Allen key bolts to fix them. But I can’t see any way of tightening or loosening the handlebar...

Yes, that is a possibility, thanks.
