Right. I think Giant is okay with this particular model, but when you own several e-bikes simultaneously, it lends itself to real world testing/evaluation. Giant as a company have been very responsive to my inquiries, but it is hard to ignore that two manufacturers (Trek and Specialized) have...

As I have done with my other ebikes, I am going to review my 2022 Giant Fastroad E+ EX Pro frame size large. Currently, I have a little over 1200 miles on this bike. First, I love the looks of this bike, call me crazy, but the matte black just looks good. I did add Schwalbe Super Moto X tires...

I missed the Cube thing also.....go with the new bike and the warranty. Happy riding....

Okay, got it....for the money, get the gen4 motor, it is awesome in my opinion. Over 2200 miles on it, with NO ISSUES...none. Hope that helps.

Honestly, I own a Trek Allant 8s, and for what you are trying to do, I would probably go with the Trek 7s for roughly 4k US dollars. Now, the 8s is $450 more, and with that you get a bigger batter, and better display and Cobi app. The Bosch gen 4 motor is GREAT....noisy at times, but man is it...

Noticed today on Giant's website in the US, the Road E and Revolt E no longer are showing up. I wonder if they are being discontinued????

Very very nice.....looks great. Happy riding my friend.....

I have a 2022 Fastroad also, and you are correct.....its just a redistributed '21 model. I don't own the Vado 5 IGH, but have a '22 Vado 4. I typically ride 3 distinct paved trails, and I have taken both bikes out on these numerous times. From my observation and from the Garmin app, the Vado...

In addition, I would like to add, that I owned a Giant Roam and Giant Explorer E+4, and never had any issues with sudden shutdowns or charging problems. Zero issues with those ebikes.

I have a Giant Fastroad EX Pro purchased new in 2022. I also had to deal with the dreaded sudden shutoff. To me, this is an obvious issue with Giant electrical systems and the battery management engineering. Supposedly a firmware upgrade fixed the issue, as stated by my LBS. What has worked...

The gremlins in my 2022 Giant Fastroad Ex Pro disappeared after 500 miles. When it would shut off randomly, I would just unlock the battery and re-seat it. It would power back on, and I would continue my ride. In the last 500 miles, no issues with random shutoffs...crossing my fingers. I...

My range based on riding in ALL ECO mode for each bike….riding the same route over many months: 2022 Trek Allant 8s (625w) = 66 miles (32% battery left) 2022 Giant Fastroad Ex Pro (500w) = 56 miles (25% battery left) ** ECO mode was at 50% not the default 100% 2022 Specialized Vado 4 (710w) =...

On my Vado 4 when I take my normal routes (40 miles round trip), with hills, folks on the path, etc....I average 17 to 18mph at cadences from 80 to 85rpm's.

You are correct. In the US, the Vado's are Class 3 with support up to 28mph. The power/motor seems to taper off as you approach 28mph.....but I can easily keep this beast (2022 Vado 4.0) rolling at 28mph in Sport mode.

Uh, responding to this...... Mastermind TCD goes crazy........ I was out for a ride on my Turbo Vado 5.0 with IGH over the weekend when the bike went loopy. Not sure what I did, but for some reason, the fastest I could go was 6MPH (10KPH). Didn't matter what assist level was selected, nor the...

Good information and will probably be useful for some in the future.

I may play around with that setting. It is a great feature offered by Specialized, something that continues to set them apart from other ebike manufacturers.

Interesting post. I have a 2022 Vado 4.0, with about 2,000 miles on it, and not one issue. Nothing. Like another blogger has stated, I ride at a cadence of 80 to 85 rpm's constantly, and rarely ever use Turbo. I find that 35/35 (Eco) to be plenty, and if I get tired, I boost it up to 40/100...

oh okay, gotcha......

Chain guard? I missed that one?
