    Specialized Mission Control App Details & Settings

    I had these problems mentioned above. I just ignored them and after a couple weeks everything works now. However I can’t locate the tcd brightness settings in the app or the display. My screen isn’t as bright as it was before the update. Has anyone else experienced this?

    2022 Vado: Turbo Basket and Tailwind Panniers

    I concur regarding heel strikes however for me i slid them back .75” and it’s fine now. After a few hundred miles and getting used to pedaling with the panniers moved back…. I moved them forward and i am not getting heel strikes. My pedaling technique/foot position changed. Not saying this...

    New Como 5.0 Rock Shock fork not working

    This is extraordinary. A business wants to pay you to go away. Wrap your mind around this... a business wants to pay you to go away. And even if you think that they will pay you what you paid... they aren't breaking even... they have had to spend even more money to deal with you. They are...

    Routing a New Shifter Cable

    *Maybe* but likely yes if the ferals and housing are not damaged. No breaks in the housing/casing. If you have to replace everything then tape the new cable/housing to the front of the old housing so it is the same diameter and pull it through the frame. Look and think before you do this.

    2022 Vado 4.0 My Opinion after the first 1000 miles

    The bike is perfect. I have never had an issue however I am a competent bicycle mechanic and I have common sense. When you turn the bike on make sure you don't move it until the headlight and taillights come on. When the bike first turns on it calibrates itself, therefore, moving the wheels or...

    New Como 5.0 Rock Shock fork not working

    Wow, this is amazing! I've had my 2022 Vado 4.0 since April with zero issues... logged almost 1000 miles. And I mean zero issues. Maybe I am lucky?

    My 1st 50 miles on the new Como 5.0

    Maybe when he is riding or sitting on the bike the front fork compresses enough to drop the bb into the danger zone. I have the same bike (4.0 actually), weigh 200 and my fork easily compresses an inch or more just sitting on the bike. I don't have issues with pedal strikes but that is because...

    Coasting with new Turbo Vado 4.0 Sl eq

    The simple answer is no. How fast do you go downhill coasting? Are you riding into a headwind? I have coasted up to 40 mph coming down mountains. Normal hill should get you over 20mph easy just coasting.

    2022 Vado: Turbo Basket and Tailwind Panniers

    Yes overall. The panniers are well suited for commuting... extra clothes, a laptop. Perfect!

    2022 Vado: Turbo Basket and Tailwind Panniers

    I got a chance to get out and ride over the weekend with the turbo basket and tailwind panniers. They fit perfectly and I had no problems carrying roughly 60 pounds of groceries between the basket and panniers.

    Hooray for New Bike Day: Vado 4.0 2022

    I appreciate the info. The mirror I am using does not have a long enough arm to go below or above the bars. It's rather small, to begin with.

    Hooray for New Bike Day: Vado 4.0 2022

    Actually, I was wrong each bag doesn't fit a case of canned beer but each bag does fit a 15 pack of canned beer.

    Hooray for New Bike Day: Vado 4.0 2022

    Ya basically just under 4 hours and yes I hit the road at 5:30am. I am still hyperactive even at 53. I was even riding BMX, racing, riding ramps up until my son got cancer when I was 47. I'd probably still be riding ramps if I didn't have to stop (lived in the pediatric oncology ward for a few...

    Turbo Vado Front Rack

    True but it is essentially inadequate. The bike isn't hard to ride at all with the engine off. The beeping sounds more like a stove timer than it does an actual alarm.
