I’m completely against an e-bike for a young person. If they are healthy they should ride a regular bike. Now if they have some disability or are overweight and an e-bike will help them on their way to getting healthy, that’s a different story. My wife and I bought our first e-bikes when...

A couple days ago my wife and I were riding our Vados on the City‘s dedicated bicycle/walking path. Some idiot on a Surron came flying past us. We were lucky I was able to hear the electric motor screaming so I knew he was going fast and we didn't swerve or try to look behind us. He would...

Another vote for test riding a few before you buy. My LBS takes your drivers license and lets you take a bike for a spin down the street. Doing that won’t give you a real feeling of what it’s like to really ride one, but it’s better than nothing and free. Find a Specialized dealer and look at...

Is there a schedule as to when the updates are sent out? Once a year, etc.?

A small screwdriver can be used to pry out and up on the circlip. Then work it around and off the toothed shaft. Circlip pliers are the best, but if you don’t have any…

To the OP, what saddle is that? I’m looking to replace a couple stock saddles on my bikes.

I’ll look at the eTap also, thx Allen

To be honest with you, I just bought my Creo and aren’t even sure how many gears it’s got. My wife and I went for a ride with some friends and my wife traded bikes for about 10 miles and got to try out a Creo Expert and loves the Di2. She’s never seen that before. We’re looking for a Creo...

How about the stuff you wrap around exposed water pipes and plug in? They stop the pipes from freezing so they should keep the battery slightly warm.

Anyone put a Di2 system on their Creo Comp Carbon? Ballpark cost? Easy or difficult? Is it DIY or would a bike shop have to do it?

I just need to chime in here, and make another vote for the alloy frame. When you crash or drop the bike and it lands on a rock or tree branch, the alloy frame will just dent slightly. The carbon frame will crack and will need to be replaced. There is not much of a weight savings with the...

Alcohol and power tools lol

Yes, I saw that. It was just one sensor, but everything I need came up on the Bolt screen. We’ll see how the mileage looks after I ride it for a few mikes to see if the Auto wheel circumference is accurate.

Ok thanks. I’m doing a 50 miler on Friday so I’ll let you know

Ok I think I got it Stephan, thank you. I used the AUTO prompt for wheel circumference. That gonna work? I‘m mainly looking for Speed, Distance, and Assist Setting showing in the screen on my Bolt. I can’t see the assist setting on the Master Control window on the bike when I’m riding...

Thanks Stephan, I was hoping you’d see my post and respond. It’s early here in California and just having my coffee. When I get motivated I’ll try what you suggested. I paired my Creo to the Specialized app. in my LBS when I bought my bike 2 weeks ago. When you say go to Settings-> SENSORS...

I got my new Bolt yesterday and linked it to my home WiFi and Bluetoothed to my IPhone. I thought my buddy said it will link to my 2022 Creo1 Comp Carbon. What do I need to get or do for it to do that? The instructions talk about sensors?

Your local bike shop could change your front brake to a rear brake fairly easily. As long as you don’t get going very fast, a rear only brake will be okay. Good for you for keeping after it. Your ebike will get you out of the house and having fun.

Let me know what her answer is lol. We’ve got 5 e-bikes and a regular tandem, it’s a sickness. Now I just got my Creo, my wife wants one too.

When you get rid of that tanked water heater, there’s room for another bike.
