    Charging the como

    I am not an expert on these battery matters - there is a lot of info on this forum from people more knowledgeable than me. But for me, when I charge the battery, I bring it up to 100% knowing that I will be using the bike within two to three days. I normally wait to charge when I get down to...

    Como 4.0 -- what speed are you riding at?

    I have a 2020 Como 4.0. Blackdog7 mirrors my experience. When pedaling comfortably in full battery assist, I am in the 22 to 24 mph range. Love the bike and am very happy with my purchase.

    Send us pics of your ebike... loaded with groceries!

    Is that a Topeak MTX bag on the back of your Como 6.0? Are you happy with it? Just purchased a Como 4.0 and added the Specialized rear rack and am in the market for a bag/pannier. The one on your bike looks interesting.

    Step over or step through for men?

    As a 74-year-old male in pretty good shape, I am venturing into e-bikes. I have pretty much made up my mind on a Specialized Como 4.0. But, I am having a hard time deciding if I want a step-through frame or the step over frame. The step-through makes a lot of sense to me, (especially long...
