Yeah, that's what I suspected, aligns with my thoughts. Thanks.

My brother dug a motorcycle half helmet out of the dumpster. Is that budget enough?

Anybody find the need or desire to change the brake fluid? Believe mine uses mineral oil. Any degradation or what not? The oil is cheap, the parts not so much.

Really liking this kickstand. Well worth the $24 usd.

Re my above posts about the battery, I have not had any problems after I looked at it. I believe expanding the female contacts in the battery that contact the male on the bike have resolved the blackout issue. I did replace the kickstands on the Vado and Como 5. One had the plastic portion...

My como kickstand took a dump. Hauling groceries, guess it couldn't take the heat. The info on this thread helped me find one and order through amazon. Here is a pick of the original and broke piece. If Spec is going to charge top notch prices, they need to use top notch pieces. Hollow...

I've done it. I'd say noticeable to lots.

“Never put into your body that which is harmful, which you know is harmful. Anything that causes the lack of oxygen flow to your brain causes the cells to perish in great numbers and they will never be again, for the brain lacks the ability to reproduce its cells. When your brain cells are...

I think I bought mine from someone in the US, and don't remember any issues with breaking. The one issue I had was the extender with the left hand threads, the die was wearing to the point the spacer was difficult to thread into the crank arm. Figured the machinist didn't want to trade it out...

I opened the battery up to take a look. Inside was clean and dry. Nothing out of the ordinary. Whoever takes on the job of fixing ebike batteries could probably write their own ticket. The only thing I could see was the contacts, the female portion might have relaxed so I attempted to move...

Possibly, though the display was working just fine. With electric, anything is possible:)

Well, got to experience a blackout on the Como 5 a couple times. About a week ago the power cut out although the display was still operable. Today, another power outage, the display was normal except the percentage of the battery was blank and the blocks on the right side to indicate level...

All my bikes have pedal spacers. I was hitting my heel on the chain stay on one of the bikes, size 13 shoe and I ride with the balls of my feet on the pedals, and the spacers put the pedals in a more normal place for my feet. I have a pretty athletic build and was a sprinter. With the pedals...

For straight bees wax, the wax temp has to be just above solidifying temp to prevent voids and do a slow pour. And heating temp is supposed to be non too excessive or it messes up the wax somehow (not my experience, just what Ive read). After it’s all melted I let it cool to 146f and start...

When I first purchased my vado and como about the same time I changed the rotors out for 200mm units. One of the best upgrades along with changing the 48t ring out for the 36t. Thanks for the detailed report. How many miles total?

Those little tires give the sensation of power, and require the larger front chainring to compensate.

You ever ride a ubco? I thought about one of those if I could get away with not having to register or insure it. Maybe put some pseudo pedals on it:) Those R&M's are nice but pricey. They're like the bmw. In the real world stuff happens and in my world there better be a dealer around to...

I bought a milwaukee cordless tire inflator. Pretty sweet. https://www.milwaukeetool.com/Products/2848-20

This guy liked the Tern and Globe which were real close on his metrics and eventually picked the Tern. Goat watching is a bonus. I'll have to look at the new Tern. I like the Globe being torque sensing and having a local dealer. I may have to do some studded tires sometime just for the...
