Having said all of the above, there is a newly opened rail trail between Lake Placid and Saranac Lake, soon to be extended to Tupper Lake, in the nearby Adirondacks that is specifically restricted to Class One bikes, and cyclists in Lake Placid tend to be a little fussy. When I get up there to...

Don’t know about tattoos… NYC was a bit tough on ebikes for years, but I think they’ve backed off in the last year. Fortunately we are 200 miles north of there and around here there are some pretty fancy ebikes all over the place and I have never heard of any issues. I rode across the whole...

Well, Salsa as a brand certainly knows a few things about riding in Vermont… that new one might be a strong contender. Maybe a Canyon Grail: On, or whatever it’s called, but then you run into the whole who services it when it throws a fit? My Giant Toughroad put in a lot of very happy miles next...

Useful to me, so thanks! I just went over 6600 miles on my 2 1/2 yr old Creo and I’m still on the original chain and cassette. Getting ready to put on an 11/46 cassette if I can find one, already had three different chain rings at 46, 42 and 40. Currently on the 42, since while I liked the 40...

Swipe down from the map page and the return to start feature is first on the nav list. I just sync all my rides to RWGPS which has the personal heat map feature. After seven years of ebiking, there’s lot of purple lines on the map around here!

In support of the good old USA, I present the Big Dog: “Aluminum”

That guy hasn’t been seen since he posted the first entry in this extravaganza over a year ago. Stefan actually was first out of the gate with a reference to the new Creo, PedalUma basically said the same thing, Stefan bit and it was off to the races! This thread has been a terrific carnival...

Downtube shifters! Love it. And that Scott is a pretty nice looking setup as well. My only experience with hub drives was my first ebike back in 2016, a very basic cadence sensor. It was quite different from my Cannondale touring bike, that’s for sure, but you were basically a passenger. Assist...

I haven’t seen the red/blue line thing, but two days ago and today my Garmin lost the sensor connections from the bike during the ride. Is that what’s going on here?

You can watch any stage that’s already finished anytime you want, and if you turn it on during a stage you can back it up to the start or any other point. Today was sort of ride, ride, ride and then all of a sudden Tadej took off like a shot and the game was on! Great stuff. Seems like the live...

Bill, that’s a great looking Lego (my Creo is the same color scheme) and an excellent looking dog!

Epic ride, epic scenery, epic tribute to your dad with a lot of time for you to reflect on all of it. Super impressive. If your dad got to live in such a beautiful place for 93 years he was certainly ahead of the game.

I ran into the non power on, intermittent shutoff thing as well a couple of years ago on my 2018 Giant Toughroad, similar to your Road E. New display fixed the problem, bike is still going strong under my son’s command. That era Giant ebike was a damn good piece of equipment.

That titanium frame is gonna look and feel great. Love that stuff!

On the website page for the bike is a “Notify Me” button for when it becomes available. https://www.specialized.com/us/en/turbo-creo-2-comp-e5/p/275636?color=433056-275636&searchText=98124-5056U

Hey, I don’t mind, this is all very exciting! Going back to the beginning, you’re more of a road person than a gravel one though, am I right on that? This is partially about keeping up with if not blasting by your husband’s Emonda, I recall. The Trek Domane stuff doesn’t fit either?

The chain is coming off at the large cassette on the wheel and not on the crank (pedals area)? That’s a pretty easy adjustment of the limit screw… there’s a million YouTube videos about that, including some particularly good ones from the ParkTool people

Gravel people have been putting 650Bs on Creos for some time, for the opposite reason: to put larger tires on them. Don’t see why the reverse shoudn’t be true, with the one question about lowering the bottom bracket height and maybe using shorter crank arms?

I saw a picture of Keith Urban with his TALL wife Nicole Kidman today… he’s wearing shoes with what’s gotta be two inches of lift! That would do it nicely as well! (No disrespect intended, Keith, we’re just trying to solve a problem here)

Yes, they’re a bit fragile. I broke the plastic (really?) connector ring while locking it down one fine day.
