More omelette! :) (It was almost 1,100 viewers of the "live" mentioned, most being Polish).

Andrew, I'd like to clarify some matters. For me, it doesn't matter what route planner app a person chooses. All major sports trackers work equally well with Wahoo. I plan my routes in Komoot but save my ride recordings to Strava (only that service matters to me) and to RWGPS as well to Komoot...

The most interesting difference between these two system is you pay a one-time flat fee for Komoot Regions and you never need the Premium for almost all Komoot features, PC or smartphone. While you need a subscription for RWGPS to even plan your route on the smartphone. That is why almost...

The Atlas Mountain Race Podium Is Full! 1,432 km and 25,000 m elevation gain unsupported gravel race in Morocco: Winner: Victor Bosoni (France, 24): 4 d 01 h 46 min. 2nd place: Ole Bjørn Smisethjell (Norway, 26): 4 d 03 h 29 min 3rd place: Radosław (Radek) Gołębiewski (Poland, 47): 4d 05...

You can do exactly the same with RWGPS as I can do with Komoot. Wahoo 2 had a way more navigational options than the 3. I think the missing features will come in future software updates.

I said "no" to the Creo 2 role as a bike-packing e-bike (I need to repeat it). It is however, a perfect long distance gravel e-bike. Gravel cyclists don't want to ride heavy (it defeats the sports' style to ride fast). Fenders? Yes, if necessary. A big saddle bag, yes. A huge handlebar bag, yes...

Wahoo ACE is totally autonomous for "Select location on map" or "Saved locations" (where you select a location by tapping on the device map). As long as the GPX fix is available, you can navigate to the location shown on the map or to one of Saved Locations or to a Saved Location created by...

Gravel cyclists often mount water bottle cages on both sides of the fork but not the rack. A gravel racer on a 1,433 Atlas Mountain Race, Morocco, happening right now. Is this bike-packing? No, it isn't. https://amr26.maprogress.com/

Interestingly, 380 W electrical * 0.79 efficiency is 300 W mechanical, which is promised by Specialized as the max power at the cadence of 80 rpm.

While I said "No" to the Creo 2 in the role of a heavily loaded bikepacking e-bike, you seem to be greatly misinformed. We are talking Creo 2, not the older Creo 1. Creo 2 as a gravel e-bike has all the types of mounts you'd expect from a touring bike. You have no service records or even...

No saddle will help if your e-bike is not fit to your body.

You guys devote your attention mostly to road cycling while... https://amr26.maprogress.com/ There is a 1,400+ km long gravel race in Atlas Mountains, Morocco right now. The Polish Radosław Gołębiewski has a great chance for the podium! These people have pit-stops every 350 km at hotels. It is...

Trust me, not only by the British middle class :D

Tommy's Pre-Birthday 2026 Tommy turns 46 on Monday. Because of our friendship, he invited me to the Warsaw PINTA Chmielna craft beer pub. I only used my Vado for the commutes, 12.7 km in total. PINTA is the largest craft brewer of Poland. They own as many as two pubs in Warsaw Midtown. The...

The highest quality Garbaruk chainrings (that is, all of them) are made the way it is just impossible for the chain to drop :) It is like the chain were a glove and the chainring a hand :)

A visit at a Specialized dealer seems to be necessary...

I once replaced the Bridge Sport with something else but returned to the stock saddle soon. It is even better than the expensive Specialized Phenom Expert I use on my other e-bike! Meaning, your Vado SL is very well fit to your body! Besides, I had a chance to ride a Vado SL 2 6.0 EQ. I might...

This is what happens to a wheel that had been regularly overloaded for 3 years :) Yes, that wheel only had 28 spokes. I had to order building a new 32 spoke wheel based on a 150 kg weight limit, ASME class 4, DT Swiss H522 rim, a DT Swiss 350 rear hub and DT Swiss spokes as selected by an...

It is a known glitch feature of all Garmin Edge computers. You can install a Garmin app by name "E-Bike Field" by Jan Capek. There is a configuration text file that allows you mapping the assist mode numbers onto user defined names such as ECO or SPORT. Remember the Vado SL might have these...

I tried many of them (especially the wide and soft Selle Royal). Developed skin issues as the aftermath. After 3 years of suffering I removed stem risers from all my e-bikes. Modified my e-bikes to assume a more forward position. In other words, I could fit my e-bikes myself. I was explained by...
