Our current bikes are both Specialized and have extended front fenders. However, on my old Specialized Pitch 650b and my wife's Cannondale F9 I used Planet Bike Grunge Boards mounted on the down tubes in front of the pedals. They were very effective acting as a "fender extension" and keeping our...

I have a Burley Travoy which I had mounted to my seat post on my Specialized Pitch 650b. With the addition of a plastic crate, it was very effective for beach excursions (chairs, cooler, umbrella, etc.). When I switched to a Turbo Tero with 29" wheels the trailer was too close. They sold an...

I bought the Power Stance Bicycle Kickstand through Amazon. They have it is either black or silver. I bought the black for my wife's Como and the silver for my Tero. The black version costs more for whatever reason. The stock Como kickstand has an allen screw on the back but it looks like it is...

Replaced my wife's Como kickstand with a Portland Design Works kickstand. Her bike has a front rack installed which makes the front end a little unstable when parked. The kickstand swap made it much more stable.

My wife's Como 3 has the same tire. They are Specialized Pathfinder tires.

Has anyone had a problem with the new app only recording part of the ride? I thought I saw it mentioned on a thread a while ago but my search attempts ended with blanks. On my daily ride, the first 4 miles and last 4 miles are the same just in opposite directions with about a 7-mile loop in...

I had a similar problem with the OEM seat on my Turbo Tero 3. I switched to a Selle Royal which provided some relief. I looked at noseless saddles but could not make the jump. My wife bought a Como 3 which came with a 200 mm body geometry seat. I finally took the time to measure what I needed...

Does this count. We use this at our summer home to get around town. At least it charges on 115 Vac. Unfortunately we are limited to streets that are 35 mph or less. Also, the trip there is too far to make an EV practical but at least we save gas while we are there.

I spend some of my time on the trails and mounting the mirror outward was definitely a problem. Underneath and inward is the best set up for me on a Turbo Tero. It provides a clear rearward view under my arm. Obviously, this depends on your seating position. My wife's Como has a very upright...

Not that this suggestion will be worth much.... I am 68 and my wife is 55 and we both bought Specialized Turbos. Mine is a Tero and hers is a Como 3. She had elbow surgery last year and needed an upright seating position and not a lot of weight on her arms. The bike is very comfortable for her...

Looks like a common theme for us old guys. My cancer diag was one of the reasons I switched from my Pitch 650b to an electric. I thought it would help me get more riding time. Only on hormones for 6 months but I did get the hot flashes, start crying at the movies my wife was watching, and...

I have had good luck with my 515 as well. The range is definitely over 100 yards and it seems to accurately distinguish multiple vehicles. The light blinking when vehicles approach also makes you more noticeable. Although I mount my phone to the handlebars, I can easily feel the vibration alerts...

Although I split time on my Tero 3 between trails and the street, I did purchase a Garmin radar for when I am in traffic (long story for another time about being hit twice, riding on the wrong side, arguments with real cyclists, and finally caving). However, I noticed an issue with the new...

I did clean the battery connection as recommended. However, although I ride my Tero every day or two, she has only ridden her Como 1 or 2 times since the December ride. I might start riding hers instead to get a better handle on the status (I will remove the front dog carrier...lol). When the...

Just curious if there was ever a resolution of this issue. Also, has anyone verified if the latest Specialized App (which replaces Mission Control) resolves it?

Wife's Como. Cable ties are just for backup since I am not totally comfortable with O-ring mounts, especially on bumpy trails.

Late to the party but wondering if you ever got an ABUS lock for your Como. I installed a 4750 XL on my wife's 2022 Como. I also bought an ABUS 5850/5650/4960 Cable 12/100, Black, 100 cm. I bought both on Amazon. The package arrived and one of the keys was bent. ABUS mailed me a set of...

That is certainly good advice, especially if the economy sours this coming year. I did pay in advance for a Swytch Kit for my son's Rockhopper. They required a deposit up front and then the balance when the final order was locked in. They were pretty clear on the site that the units were made...

I will take the battery out and clean all the contacts. Since it has only happened twice in over 1 1/2 years, I may never really know if I fixed it. More importantly, I will know how to better react if my wife says it is happening.

Has anyone had this issue lately or have any more info on it? My wife's 2022 Como 3.0 had this issue twice. Once last summer (2022) and again a week ago. When starting off the bike does not assist at all. Simply turning off the power and turning it back on fixes the issue. The display indicates...
