    Hello Turbo Vado friends everywhere / 2019 Range / Missing App!!

    Thanks RodJets! I have a really stupid question with respect to cleaning the chain. When I clean the chain on my Trek road bike, I spin the crank backwards to move the chain. On the Vado, the crank is free wheeling when spinning the crank backwards; the chain doesn't move. Are you raising...

    Vado 3.0 Trip Info

    I was under the impression that each time I powered on to ride, the trip mileage and time reset to zero. This is not happening for me. Both miles and hours continue to accumulate. How do I reset to zero? Thanks Chuck

    Hello everyone, Chuck here living retired life in Lewes DE, about six miles from the beaches. I’ve been riding a 2013 carbon Trek Madone for the past four years. I’ve been slowing down a bit due in part to age (75) and increasing weight, (chocolate and pasta freak.). Still averaging about 50...
