I see what you are saying. I noticed the Narrow/Wide teeth. It is in the proper teeth, but I never checked that before, and it could have been off a link for a while now (prior to today when I reattached the chain to the ring). It is still sticking, unfortunately. EDIT: The chain will not seat...

BTW, I was new when I busted the cog. I realized what had happened and didn't let that happen again. I do agree to replace the chain more than seems necessary. This stuff wears at much higher rates than human powered legs only.

At lunch I was observing and noticed the chain was catching/sticking as it was exiting the front chainring. Seems the old chain wore it's self deep into the ring, causing the new chain to stick. This only happens on full power assist. That was the noise I thought was a chain rub on the...

It seems that I can't get a smooth indexing sequence on my 2020 Vado 3.0 It started when I only had a couple hundred miles. I shifted from 9 to 8 under fully assisted load at a very slow speed. Busted the 11 tooth cog on the low end shimano cassette. I replaced the cassette with a Deore 9...

My thoughts on a hub motor. There is usually a wire tie (zip tie) holding the axle side of the wire/plug to the frame. That needs to be snipped in order to remove the wheel. You do need to snip it and not stretch it while trying to dismount a tire. A toenail clipper will work. You could also...

Hi there! Yes, we are quite spoiled for year-round riding. It gets a bit chilly for casual riding deep into winter, but it is doable if motivated. In the US, you can buy directly from Specialized.com and have it delivered to your dealer of choice for in-servicing. I looked at the Canadian...

Hi all, My wife and I are avid recreational cyclists. We have bikes form various genres. A pair of restored 1970's English Raleigh 3 speeds, modern beach cruisers, hard tail MTB's, a 90's hybrid tandem, and most recently, ebikes! I currently have a 2020 Specialized Turbo Vado 3.0 and my wife...

I haven't had any issues (2 days old) I would definitely take it in for a warranty repair.

I just stumbled upon and purchased my wife this newly released Electra. it's a Class I 250 hub motor with a lot of torque. Weighs about 45lbs (light!) and she beat me up a steep hill. She is 150 lbs and I have a Turbo Vado and weigh 185 lbs. That alone impressed me with this bike. See it HERE

Hi all. I also just purchased a 2020 Vado 3.0. I have 600 miles on it now. I mainly use it for commuting 35+ mi RT each day.
