    [Resolved] BEWARE - SPECIALIZED Full Return Policy not as advertised

    Uggggggh.........the 1st IGH I purchased at the time was only available from a Specialized shop in Mass. in the entire USA and they were willing to sell to me if I paid the shipping cost to NJ LBS to follow Specialized rules about shipping direct to consumer (they said they could not). So I...

    [Resolved] BEWARE - SPECIALIZED Full Return Policy not as advertised

    The "resolve" was that after a credit card dispute to "wake up" those driving the bus, then, and ONLY THEN was there any sort of resolve. I learned a long, long time ago, if you involve money, it gets the attention of the person whose pocketbook it affects. That's why you use the protection...

    Considering a Specialized, got a few questions

    6 pages of conversation about who to choose and why. Each has their own experience. Mine has been documented in these forums. MY opinion is choose your LBS vendor carefully. It's all about their competency. No different than any craftsman in any type of business, Regarding which brand? ME...

    Question re: locking bike and concern for vandalism

    Oh I make stink alright, I get shamed, banned, but there is really minimal acceptance for us bike owners to have a secure place to,leave them without worry. Just another layer of stress to daily life.

    Question re: locking bike and concern for vandalism

    I did that when I went to the doctors office, brought it up to the 3rd floor on the elevator, building maintenance scolded me and warned not to ever do it again. No winning. I used to bring it into the gym, then was told I couldn't. No winning.

    Question re: locking bike and concern for vandalism

    "Now. Would I pedal a 50 lbs e-bike unpowered? I actually did it for 10 miles upwind back in 2019" I did 5 miles last year, not something I'd like to relive.

    Question re: locking bike and concern for vandalism

    No simple easy answer, just putting it out there. Whether using an Abus frame lock, an associated auxiliary cable or chain, or an independent next to impossible locking system (it doesn't exist, I know), because the integrated display is a primary system component to turn on the bike, start it...

    How to order a specific ABUS lock and specific key code?

    Yes, very few US distributors with exception to Propel. I had to order mine from overseas at Hollandbikeshop.com yesterday for the newest model (a supposed 1-size fits-all model), meaning no guesswork if it will fit or not...

    Myth BUSTED: "The Chain Drops On My Specialized E-Bike Because The Chainring Is Praxis WAVE"

    So OK, Stefan seems to have the most experience and knowledge regarding these types of issues. I regard his opinions as the rule to follow, most times. If anyone know things, he seemingly knows a lot from his experimenting and experiences (with the e-bike stuff). That being said, I'll pose...

    Myth BUSTED: "The Chain Drops On My Specialized E-Bike Because The Chainring Is Praxis WAVE"

    I continue to have the same issue with the chain coming off. I put about 6,600 miles on the 2022 Vado 5.0 in 16 months, replaced the chain every 1500-2000 miles, new cassette at the same time and it eventually happens, many, many times. Discussed it with the local bike shop Guru, and he...
