I just got my new Range Extender. It shows one level of power. Is there anything special to do on the initial charge? Should it be topped off? Should it not be topped off? Thanks for your advice!

From an engineering standpoint - why? If the unit was bulky and required an *expansion* of the stem size, that I'd get. But a *reduction* in diameter? Why is that necessary? The shim that I found in there doesn't bring the diameter up to 1 1/8. If there's another shim that's needed for that, it...

I see. Do you mind posting the link to the shim again? Trying to figure this out - 1 3/8 in??? Eleven eighths of an inch??? One and one eighth. Duh :-)

And what did you do with regard to the height of the clamp? 45mm vs 40mm. How did you deal with that?

The 30deg Ritchey has a 45mm stack as I am just finding out! :-\

So I ran into a bit of trouble with this. I got the Specialized stem off no problem. I loosened up the bolts and rotated the stem on the steerer counterclockwise. The friction against the cosmetic cap started turning that cap and it unscrewed very smoothly. No issues there. When I got the cap...

It says here that it "electronically locks the motor support for the bike". https://support.specialized.com/home/missioncontrol/en/turbo-system-lock-for-bikes-with-mastermind-displays My dealer told me explicitly that it can still be pedaled, but I don't see that documented online one way or...

Hi Stefan, I watched the video. I think he omitted one class of thru-axles - a thru-axle WITH a cam. I'm new to Specialized so I don't know if they're using this on any of their bikes, but this is what I have on my Bulls E-Stream Turbo, front axle. Those "wings" are spring loaded, they compress...

I see, thanks! Great video. Everything I need to know.

Yes, absolutely. So what is Specialized thinking. We all have torque sensors built into our thumbs? I'll have to pay more attention to that. Not what I expected. I've ridden QR for decades and it's always been the cam action which creates the clamp. This is different. Not sure why.

Yes, I see that in the manual - 15mm spacers max. Interesting. I purchased from a Specialized dealer. I'll ask him next time I'm in the shop. From my perspective, all I can say is it feels fine. So far I've taken this up to 44mph on a wicked downhill and everything felt just fine! :)

No prob. Do you have any experience with FS 1.5? Any idea how I pop that cap off? Thanks!

My Creo does not have a cam. It's different than any Quick Release I've ever had. I'm wondering whether it is in fact a true QR or whether it is simply a bolt with a lever that allows it to be manipulated without an Allen wrench. Hmm... Wouldn't the rotation of the axle at least work in favor...

I'm surprised to hear this. The axles on the Creo are billed as "quick release". Meaning they're supposed to come off by hand and remount by hand. I'd do this in any number of situations; a field repair of a flat, or taking the wheel off to pop the bike into the back of my SUV and then inserting...

I think your instructions are for an adjustable Future Shock? Mine is not adjustable. Just a flat cap, pretty much flush with the top of the stem mount. I'm not sure I understand figure 10.10. Is this finger-loosened after the stem is loosened? And then finger-tightened before the stem is...

But I think it must be shimmed because I measured the circumference of the stem mount with a caliper; 31.98mm which is exactly the same as my other bike - it's a Motobecane with a standard stem. It's not 100% proof positive because the Specialized stem mount might have thicker walls, but that...

I see. It's here. But out of stock online. :-\ https://www.performancebike.com/specialized-future-shock-1.5-2.0-stem-shim-black-11-8-stem-s199900023/p1142753

Oops! Thank you for posting. I had no idea. I thought it was going to be standard. I will look for that shim. Where can I get that shim if I will need it? Also, how do I get the compression cap (is that what it's called?) off the top of the steering tube? The last time I did this with a...

So Mission Control for Creo doesn't have a lock function, but I thought of something creative. Here's a tip. Create a profile called Locked. Then set each turbo assist level to 0% - 10%. When you duck in for a Gatorade, set the Mission Control profile to Locked. No one is going to get very far...
