    Turbo Creo SL - Road Configuration vs. EVO

    I'm considering the differences between the road configuration and the EVO for gravel. I've been e-Biking for four seasons now on a Mountain profile - Bulls E-Stream EVO 2 (hardtail). I slimmed down the wheels from 3" knobby to 2" relatively smooth, in consideration of the fact that I'm riding...

    Turbo Creo SL Comp Carbon - Century Riding

    It says here that the frame incorporates rack mounts. https://www.bespokecycling.com/blog/new-specialized-turbo-creo-sl-comp-evo Rack and mudguard mounts are built in, giving another hint as to Comp's "more than road" capabilities, as does the gravel-friendly "Open Road" geometry, similar to...

    Turbo Creo SL Comp Carbon - Century Riding

    Thanks! How much does the range extender cost and how much does it weigh? It sounds like I'd be comfortable for sure with two extenders. Does the bike have attachment points for a rack over the rear wheel?

    How many miles do you have on your e-bike with a Brose motor?

    Yeah, mine's a Bulls. I worked on the contacts (ROPD - https://www.rosenberger.com/en/products/automotive/ropd.php) all Sunday. I used vinegar, baking soda, lemon juice, and on Tuesday I sprayed battery terminal cleaner which I had ordered from Amazon. No luck. So I brought it by the dealer...

    How many miles do you have on your e-bike with a Brose motor?

    I have 6,000 miles over three seasons on a Brose motor. I don't think I've had any problems with the motor. Recently, I was experiencing some intermittent assist issues and now the bike won't turn on but dealer believes it's somewhere in the electrical system, not the motor. At this point I tend...

    Turbo Creo SL Comp Carbon - Century Riding

    I’m wondering how much battery I'll need to support the long century rides. I’ve been riding a BULLS E-Stream 2 for the past few years. The battery is a beast – 647 wh. The bike is a beast too – 50lb, plus when I do my longer rides I’m packing a spare battery so we’re starting off with 60lb and...

    Can we change the culture?

    So it's a year and a half later, just came across this old post of mine. Since then, I've mounted a GoPro 360 and I've delimited the motor. :-) I actually passed the same guy in the local state park (mountainous) this past summer, but he gave me no problem. If he had any comment he was too far...

    Power Meter Installation

    I'd like to install a power meter so I can monitor how much effort I'm putting into my courses. I'm a little confused though about how to do this. This site here...

    BULLS tire taped to rim?

    Those three inch tires are wicked hard to get off the rims! I've gone down to 2 inches which are a pleasure by comparison. With the plus sized tires I practically broke my thumbs trying to squeeze the bead away from the wheel. I know it's a no-no but I had to take a flat edge screwdriver to pry...

    Can we change the culture?

    What is it about eBiking that enrages some of the less rational, less mature cyclists? I've been eCycling for about a year now and this past Sunday I received my first negative reaction but boy was it a doozy. It's all well and good to talk about just passively cycling past and ignoring...
