Welcome Buzze! Lots of information on here as I am sure you already know.

I bought my Specialized Como used as well. I was able to get it at more than half price a month and a half ago. It came with some warranty as well.

Ah yes 1littlekim, I am all too familiar with those! Had two of them. I own a Specialized Como 2.0. It allows for upright seating. Depending on your friend's budget, I would start with a local bike shop.

Hello and Welcome Curt. I use to live in NorCal unit five months ago, now in SoCal. Recently brought my ebike too in October. You'll enjoy your ebike!!

I had a conversation with Paolo as well, he said he has not had time to test on Como or Vado but looks like you already have. There is a posting on here from Planet 3 about a workaround. I believe it involves adding a couple of their speed governor removers and changing your unit of measure to...

1500 miles on mine and no issues whatsoever.

Mine was 3 weeks. I started by doing a lot of reading, watching YouTube videos. I settled on what I wanted which was the Rad. I did not want it to be shipped so I went to my LBS to check some e bikes out. I saw the Como and Vado lines, did some more research, found Como at a great price and...

Welcome to the forums! I have learnt a lot from the youngsters on here too.

Welcome, I share Angela M's sentiments. There is a lot of knowledge on this forum!

Congrats Type952. You've chosen a great bike! Just make sure the lbs fits you properly and do a demo with you.

As someone who just bought a Como 2.0, once I get used to it, I will remove the speed governor. I have read on here about Planet3. Do a search and see if this is applicable to your Como 3.0

Welcome Dirtbikerick! I agree with you in some of the outrageous prices that I could not justify. I looked at Rads myself before finding my Specialized Como. Enjoy the site!

Welcome Lord Polymath! As a new member myself and new to ebikes, this is the place to be.

Rick53, your analysis is not too far off! I purchased a 2019 2.0 and right in line with 40 something % discount.

As one recently was shopping for ebike, I would try and get if for sub $2K, my max would probably be $2.2K

Finally took possession of my 2019 Como 2.0

As a person who's suffered a disability all my life, I am glad you posted and this would be a sticky. I am new member and I just recently purchased my ebike. When I tell my friends, they say what, a ebike? They do not want anything to do with it! A lot of misconception out there still about...

I was in the same boat as you Sharkbait! I did not want to spend $3K plus on a bike. I knew what I wanted though. In situations like this, patience is really a virtue. I ended up buying a bike from my lbs, they give bike tours and turn over their inventory every six months or so. It was...

Thanks Mtl_Biker. I was fortunate enough to find a great deal with San Diego Fly Riders. They rent these bikes out and renew their inventory every six months or so they say! I got a 2019 Specialized Como 2.0. I will pick the bike up this weekend as they had to transport it to their store in LA.

Hello Zak, I remember Pacifica and the salt water!! I lived in Daly City for a couple of years. I remember the fog too! I just left the Bay Area to move to Los Angeles and do miss the bike lanes in the East Bay and SF! I just joined and welcome! Hope everything works out healthwise!
