    New carbon wheels for Creo?

    Has anyone found a compatible carbon wheel set for the Creo? I bought the model with the dt Swiss wheels thinking I would pick up a pair of the carbon roval’s to swap tire types (gravel and road) but apparently specialized is not offering them with the boost spacing needed, at least at this...

    Specialized Turbo Creo 28mph Electric Road Bike

    Yes, these tires look like a great compromise. But I love the feeling of the super efficiency I get on my Roubaix with carbon Rovals and high pressure road tires. So I am trying to get that on my Creo. For me, this is really the ultimate ebike (I assume, it has been snowy here in northern...

    Specialized Turbo Creo 28mph Electric Road Bike

    I bought a Turbo Creo Comp Carbon a month ago thinking I would put the Evo tires on the included DT wheels, and buy a $1200 set of the upgraded carbon c38 wheels found on the upper range Creos and put my original road tires on them, and disc's. Then I could just swap out wheels for gravel vs...

    Wilier Cento01hy road bike XL size

    Hi, I bought this in the late fall this year and then bought a Creo also. I would like to keep both but really can’t. As new condition. I have only ridden it 3 times. This uses the Ebikemotion system and is pedal assisted to 20 mph. This is similar to the Orbea Gain but I think with better...

    .....

    It was slightly reduced for about an hour, and then back to the same. After a Haibike dealer tightened the bolts it has not made a peep in 700 miles since. The bolts the Haibike dealer tightened are not the ones on the bottom of the bottom bracket. These were elsewhere and not exposed without...

    What new light weight e-bikes are on the horizon?

    I have a Wilier Cento1HY coming tomorrow. Lightweight and gorgeous Italian styling and manufacture. They also have a new Cento10HY coming out. It is supposed to be the lightest e-road bike yet.

    .....

    I have one. Great bike. But when I received it from an online discount seller in Wisconsin the motor had a very noticeable click with each crank rotation. Brought it to a local Trek dealer, which uses the same Bosch system, who charged me $260 and did not fix it. Brought it to a new local...

    Specialized Turbo Creo 28mph Electric Road Bike

    Still waiting for my dealer to get one in... with the carbon wheels and compared to other e-road bikes this is starting to seem like a reasonable price $9k... I just don’t see much available in class 3. I would like to try a class 3 Fazua but no idea if anyone will have one. I am starting to...

    I stopped in my trek dealer yesterday and he showed me a picture of a new Domane+ LT which has a Fazua motor. Not available yet here in US. Is it out in EU?

    Orbea Gain E-Road Bike

    On the M30 carbon frame, is there much flex or is it pretty stiff? I tend to get up out of the saddle on steep hills and a flexible frame drives me nuts. My regular road bike is a Specialized Roubaix carbon. Would this be stiff like that? Of course I would love to try one before buying but I...

    Specialized Turbo Creo 28mph Electric Road Bike

    The elephant in the room here is how much this bike is a step up from the Ebikemotion bikes in the US, while not much of a change in countries with the 15.9 limit. To get this bike with a 28 mph assist is kind of like buying a bit of a hot rod! Not sure I would pay the steep up charge in EU...

    Specialized Turbo Creo 28mph Electric Road Bike

    Anxious to see which of these comes in at a lower price point while including lower spec carbon wheels. They make such a difference and combined with this motor I would definitely be a buyer at something closer to $7k.

    Orbea Gain E-Road Bike

    I know the US version has assist to 20 mph theoretically, but are people finding this to be actual? Just curious because I have had a specialized turbo which was supposed to assist to 28 but actually cut out about 26.5. Does the Gain actually assist to 20 mph?

    Specialized Turbo Creo 28mph Electric Road Bike

    I do plan on riding one when my dealer gets one in August. I am a bit concerned about the 35 nm figure of torque. I thought the 40 nm of the Orbea was low but this is even lower...

    Looking for e-roadbike pedelec

    As a life long bike lover, now 63, I have decided to indulge myself with a new road bike. Looking for a stealth model, 28 mph assist, carbon frame, decently light weight to be able to pedal freely without power. Is the upcoming specialized Creo my only option in a 28 mph model? I really want...
