    Help !!! Cant get my rear wheel back on

    Have you tried it with the bike in an upright position, thereby keeping some weight on the wheel while tightening?

    Using 1Up Super Duty with Turbo Como (or Vado) with Wheel Stop accessory, or other options

    One downside to the Thule Easy Fold is the 2 trays are rather close to each other. My Creo and my wife’s Rad Mini wouldn’t both fit on it without making contact, no matter how I positioned them. I no longer recall the exact dimensions, but I bought a Kuat Piston Pro to gain about 1.5-2.0 inches...

    Specialized Turbo Vado/Como/Tero/Tero X User Club

    it uses Bluetooth, not WiFi. I’ve had one for several months, and have had zero problems. If it isn’t connecting, it’s likely in sleep mode. Pressing a button on the remote wakes it, and it then connects with BLEvo just fine. I believe Bluetooth range is about 30 feet, so as long as you’re...

    Using a Thule EasyFold rack with a swing away attachment

    I have no actual experience with this, but I have a Kuat Pivot Pro rack and considered purchasing a swing away unit. I see no reason the swing away should be considered to be brand-specific. The only thing I’d point out is how far the rack extends from the vehicle when this is added. If I’m...

    Riding Clothes - In Praise of Clown Suits

    Yeah, but that’d be a tough position on a bike. 😊 Maybe this should be in the Throttle thread.

    Specialized Turbo Vado/Como/Tero/Tero X User Club

    Well, as I said (though perhaps not clearly), you don’t need to use your phone to change the assistance via BLEvo. You can purchase the O-Synce remote (about $75 USD) to control BLEvo, and step the assistance up or down while leaving your phone in your pocket or bag. The phone will even audibly...

    Specialized Turbo Vado/Como/Tero/Tero X User Club

    My bike is. Creo, but AFAIK, you can’t change the assistance mid-ride on a 2020 model without a) using Mission Control, or b) using the BLEvo app. Nice thing about the BLEvo app is you can purchase a remote (link to seller’s site from within the app) that will allow you to change the...

    Tour de Whidbey next weekend!

    Next year I’m hoping to get my wife to join in. For this go-round our 3 month old puppy isn’t fully vaccinated yet, so we can’t board her and she’ll eat the patio furniture if we don’t keep an eye on her! 😵‍💫

    Tour de Whidbey next weekend!

    Yeah, same here. It looks like a fun ride, but without a partner I might as well ride closer to home (Pierce County). The weather is going to be perfect too! 😩

    No throttle and no way home today... :(

    Unsubscribed. When people get so upset that there are wishes of death or other insults, it’s no longer worth the time spent reading or considering the comments.

    Wheel Not Turning Evenly

    Yep, and the best way to get it seated fully is with the bike upright.

    Getting What You Need From a Cycling GPS

    The Wahoo Element units do support Varia radar. I have an Element, and it works perfectly, showing it vertically on the left side of the screen. If I’m not mistaken, the Bolt shows it horizontally on the top of the screen……I think.

    Getting What You Need From a Cycling GPS

    I don’t know how to fix your speed readings with Wahoo units, but if your Creo is a 2021 or earlier model I believe you could use the BLEvo app to get GPS speed readings.

    No throttle and no way home today... :(

    Jumping on a bike with a throttle may be difficult for some at first, but I think a little instruction goes a long way toward avoiding disaster. My wife and my grandson both had no trouble with their Class 2 bikes, and I think that’s what made the difference. On the other hand, I let a friend...

    That’s a post I can agree with.

    Response from Specialized re- Ride App Functionality

    I’ve had only one interaction with Specialized Rider Care…. My Creo is a 2021, in which year they painted the top bar with a clear finish. As a result, the carbon fiber is visible. I guess somebody thought that was a cool look, but I personally think it looks rather awful. I contacted them to...

    Specialized Creo (all models) - Longest Rides/Biggest Climbs

    I’m confused by your statement “Eco mode will give 10 miles or so of range of normal riding”. Eco provides far more range than 10 miles. Perhaps you mean that’s your personal range, based on physical ability, rather than battery range(?). That I could relate to…at least some days. Or perhaps my...
