    Planet3 on Specialized Creo - affecting Wahoo data

    When I pair my Creo to my Wahoo Elemnt Roam I only find Ebike sensor to pair. While initially this is fine this has problems as there seems to be a problem in the Wahoo/Specialized integration. Distance is way off, and it has nothing to do with wheel circumference, and also Auto-Pause does not...

I am considering getting one of those "Solar generators" (basically just a big battery with an inverter) to charge the bike battery, and charge/operate a few other devices.

    Hello. I'm in the process of turning a retro Norco 12-speed road bike into an e-bike. I'm looking for some opinions on drop bar throttles. What's available and what works for you?
