@Rich W. thank you for your candour regarding what would suit me better. I absolutely agree there are more prudent options. Confession - I started looking at the 5.0 based on colour(!). The 4.0 EQ (far more suitable) colours were either too sensible or too bold - for me! The Tero 5.0 fast...

That’s a super helpful list of things to consider - areas to consider when purchasing the Tero 5.0 as is. BTW how is the PNW dropper susp post?

@dynamic thanks for that summary. Could you please clarify if you are warning against all belt drives or just the ones with automatic gearbox? I haven’t crossed off the Como 4.0 Igh with twist shift. I rode the turbo Vado SL and was blown away by the nimble and responsive ride. But alas the...

this takes me nicely to another question i have been meaning to ask - there are some pretty sizeable discounts on certain turbo and non-turbo specialized lines in the UK - not sure if same elsewhere in the world. Being new in the game can those more seasoned let me know if this is an annual...

@Rich W. like you, I expected to be changing the dropper post on the Tero. But during my test ride in the city traffic I ended up using it more than expected at stop and start sections and on getting on/off. May also handy on mounting with a childseat insitu. @Stefan Mikes - completely...

Thanks @Rich W. Really good to have a Tero owner’s perspective - duely noted!

Thanks @rarobo - it’s nice to hear positive things about the 5.0 Igh because the negatives usually get amplified (human nature). My aim is to ride whatever bike I get without assist most of the time so it helps improve fitness. What is the Igh auto like without power? Too heavy?

Think you’ve got the nail on the head - my search started with belt drive as a low maintenance primary objective, then I found and rode the Tero 5.0 - my mistake. Now my head and my heart are choosing different options. The Vado 6.0 is definitely not in my shopping list. Sounds like a beast...

Being part of a group, riding around forests looks idyllic 👍🏽 Nice break from the everyday!

Thanks Stefan- I was pretty sure you would have an early impact on my thread. Yes, the Tero 4.0 EQ is what I meant - not IGH. -Commute distance - 3miles 😅 round trip to daycare and then work 6miles -Hills - short run at 10% then longer run .5 miles on 5% incline (done with Tero 3.0 and felt...

Hello all, ‘Hat in hand’ to re-introduce this age old discussion. A brief intro - I’m a new joiner to this group but have been reading the threads for a short while. I’m looking to a bike to solve my short commute (sometimes with a 3/4yr old) and address fitness needs (mid-forties, sedentary...

Hi @MrMackyB How are you finding the tero 5.0 since you took delivery? I may be following you down the same path.
