    Specialized Turbo Vado SL 5.0 EQ-My 2 cents

    I’m surprised that shops have inventory. All I keep hearing is that everything is sold out

    Como vs Vado- HELP!

    Thank you. Generally good reception where I ride, and my AAA covers up to 3 service calls per year for a bicycle. If I have more than 3 flats a year, I probably have a bigger problem! ;)

    Como vs Vado- HELP!

    I know my strengths (few) and weaknesses (alas, many). One of the latter is my mechanical ability. If I get a flat, I am calling AAA. :)

    Como vs Vado- HELP!

    I’ll try to find some tools (yes, I know that I need them!) and take it off and measure. From what I recall it is set as low as it will go.

    That is the correct dia but not sure about which Kinect length is right. I’m thinking the smaller one

    Como vs Vado- HELP!

    I think i am going to use (most of) it to mentally defray the cost since I o era lent my bike budget by quite a bit to get the Vado. Maybe a new saddle and/or seatpost though. I don’t feel a need for another battery as i don’t see myself doing any rides. Time will tell, I suppose.

    Larger a chain Ring for Vado

    If one is busy, they are all busy. I have no need to rush it- I was just disappointed in their lack of interest in helping me. There are probably a dozen dealers within 15 miles of my house so finding dealers isn't an issue.

    Al All correct---problem is that my LBS doesn't seem to be very excited about doing this for me, not helpful in identifying parts, giving me a price, etc....

    Larger a chain Ring for Vado

    Scroll up to my original post. I find that I am almost always in the top 3 gears and keep wanting one or two higher since more of my riding is flat and moderate hills vs SF/Seattle type hills. :)

    Great tip. I got on my bike and took off yesterday while forgetting to drop it to 1/Eco I was shocked at how fast I was moving and kept wondering what I ate that day that made me that much stronger. Then I lookeD down and saw that I was still in 2. ;(
