Just noticed that the saddle came a few centimeters down while I was riding. There is only one screw but even when undone, the saddle cannot be pulled up. I guess this takes some force as it is carbon? Don't wan't to break something...

Hmm mot sure I understand what you mean. What are blowers gears? The gear shifts on this bike work very smooth , as does the front derailleur

Got the bike back from the local shop today and after work went for my first ride. Still struggeling witht gettting in and out the cleat pedals (I am a newbie to race cycling) but all went very well. Wow this bike is fast! With my commuter e-hybrid from Specialized I do usually around the 22-26...

Yes and no. It arrived on Friday but I gave it to the local shop as I needed help with adjusting the SRAM gear / derailleur (for whatever reason they did not set this part up in the German shop before shipping it to Denmark). I'll get it back tomorrow I hope. Can't wait to try it out :-)

Still waiting for my eride 20 bike to ship but it's getting close now :) Regarding PulsarOne, what's the advantage over the Garmin 830 that I already own? The Garmin should get also all information as long as ANT+ protocols are supported

Interesting that Specialized goes for a hub engine here ;)

Probably wise to narrow down your search on lightweight / hybrid bikes as any bike >20 kg will due to their weight not be much fun to ride without engine assitance, even if the engine does decouple. I own a Vado SL 4.0 EQ ( a bit below 17 KG ) and as described previously, the motor decouples...

That's not very kind of you - especially when considering that I would have liked to buy this one in a local store but it is virtually impossible. Btw this was the reason I bought the Vado 4.0 two years ago although I wanted the 5.0 with suspension - they simply hadn't the 5.0, nor had any other...

Would indeed be ideal but finding a store where they have several models of those lighter weight ebikes is at least in Denmark virtually impossible. Went yesterday to the "countries biggest showroom" where they state they have 5000 bikes on display (doubt that, was more like 400) and the only...

Yes, the battery is smaller and I am curious on how much that will reduce my miles coverage when getting the new Scott Addict Eride compared to my current Vado SL. However battery is also a weight tradeoff. When the distance is not that large and you can recharge at arrival, then going for a...

Thanks ikell for the nice summary and video (really good as there are close to none videos on the new bikes out there) . I ordered my Addict Eride yesterday evening, Will get it delivered within 1-2 weeks. It's the 20 model . Really looking forward to it.

Has the app any purpose on automatic ride adjustment , especially when working with the torque sensor? Otherwise I tend to agree that you can just ignore it. On my Specialized e-bike I rarely use their app as all intel is also displayed on my Garmin Edge. Guess this works the same way here too...

It's the total weight of the bike for the same price point. E.g. a Creo SL Expert weights around 13 KG and costs almost 9000 Euro while the Scott Addict Eride 20 or 30 weight less than KG and cost 2-3000 Euro less and in constrast to the Creo, their engine is only really visible when you look...

That's interesting. Where did you hear about this? Couldn't find any forum post that reported this issue. Instead I just read this in an Italian forum (Google translated):

Really wondering what Specialized will do about the motor. The X20 from Mahle seems to be lighter and with the new sensor potentially as responsive as the Specialized/Mahle 1.1. mid motor. Torque wise, Mahle even claims the real impact of the X20 to be higher as it is rear wheel based. Will...

I am considering to buy one (probably the 20, difficult to get hold of any in Europe anyway). @ikell What is your experience with the torque sensor? Is it working fine? Which click pedals have you mounted? I am currently riding a Specialized Vado SL from 2020 and while I really enjoy thids...
