Amen to everything you said. Except sipping bears. Could be dangerous even on SL. :)

Thought I might hear a comment like this one - or not. :) No, I am keenly aware of bike bells, other riders, cars, etc... I'm old, volume of music on low. btw >> Show me one walker on any MUD trail that doesn't have earbuds on? They don't exist. So, do those folks hear me when I say...

Earbuds and music. That's my setup. btw >The hub noise is a lot louder but folks don't seem to mind that - curious thing.

Have considered this - not sure about geometry.

Dear Specy - I would like to see a 2023 S-Works VadoSL version. Carbon everything. Including wheelset, bars and post. Elec groupset. I'll go $10k USD and I'm confident I'm not the only one. Maybe offer some custom paint like Project One. The SL is a beast design. Let's get it to it's apex.

Had a 33FC cell bunk the shell - VDS nearly 30 BGR amps, nearly lost the new SE release from SAS Taiwan. They're the best regulated top shelf batts - Lina RF>>> u no.

What does this mean? I got s deal on s 22F 20Ah triangle pack while at Lina(tic) in early 2016 and hammered it for 3 years on BBSHD builds

My range extender was pretty expensive but has never given me an ounce of trouble and the capacity is great for longer rides and less charging of my main batt. I think it's a good value.

My Brose motor has been perfect through 3500 miles and doesn't even require maintenance. A marvel to me - still.

Ask them why. I would say the chain, based on my own history, is a yes to replace. But I've got 3k miles on my SL and no issues with cassette.

No - nothing like a guitar. It's a bike - it doesn't need an adjective for people to understand what you're talking about.

I just have to say a bike is a bike - not acoustic or anything else. And an eBike is an eBike. That's it.

Thanks for the post. But such confusion with one poster saying the manual says never to turn the chain backwards and the Specy video saying to do just that - I give up.

Hey Rome - Interesting. I've got 3k on my SL4 and on my 3rd chain. Original cassette. I like the gold plated idea for quick find of the link. Questions - Did you replace your cassette for a specific reason like a noise or just as precaution? And - why did you have to replace missing link...

Well, if that's in the manual I don't feel so bad given the guy at the Specialized LBS wasn't sure. :)

Hey Cal - I've always wondered about turning the motor backwards. I do think it makes servicing the chain a lot easier than propping up the back wheel. What does 'suggested that it might not be good'? Can you expand or offer any other comments from your Spec LBS? Anyone else heard an...

You're right. Sorry.

I'm saying - if you have to carry a tube - use a tube.

Or you could use your hand to turn crank and chain at the same time. Get a box of rubber gloves to service dirty bike chains. :)

So really - you might as well not go tubeless. Agree GU
