We've hired a Dacia Sandero, a Romanian car, the brand owned by Renault. A nice simple car with only a small bunch of modern features. I love that car and think I could buy one myself! Not sure if I said it before but I plan our routes in RideWithGPS (car activity) and navigate with my Wahoo...

Kerry Holiday Day 2: Slea Head Drive There is a touristy ring route from Dingle around West Kerry. It includes Brandon Mountain, Brandon Creek, Ballyferitter Village, Blasket Islands view, Slea Head and many more. Irish roads are all made of perfect quality asphalt but are very narrow, winding...

In my case, a Range Extender is good for some 15 miles.

I don't think it is possible. The current Euro S-Pedelec is Vado S IGH. Specialized uses a whole kit: fenders , rear rack (including the tail-light and the number support plate you need), handlebar remote, a type rated display, Supernova headlight and the horn button. The kit only works with the...

Try riding in a lower gear at a lower assistance? Your SL 2 has Microtune. You can set the assistance in 10% decrements as you ride to fall back to the speed of the group. Seriously!

Kerry Holiday Day 1: Dingle Peninsula (North) A view from Fahamore near Castlegregory. Later on the day, I took my first swim in the Atlantic Ocean ever! A view onto the Conor Pass from the above. A hidden mountain lake above the Conor Pass Waterfall. @Brix climbed a rocky hiking trail...

@Brix and I send you greetings from the amazing Co. Kerry in Ireland. We are at approximately 10 degree W. It is our Day 0, and more is to come! (This photo was taken by our B&B in Castlemaine, 14 km from Kerry Airport).

You are right, Charlie. Torque figure alone is of no meaning. You also need to know the rpm.

Especially for @Chargeride :) or

The colourful display with the ribbon is only available on some flat handlebar Specialized e-bikes such as the full power Vado or Tero or Como.

There are closed captions available 😊

And no helmet :D

Well, I'm doing well with my mechanical Deore XT with no gear indicator. Electronic drivetrains (AXS, Di2) can report the current gear and even the gear ratio to a smartphone or a cycling computer. I have a Di2 XTR on my Vado SL. The knowledge of the current gear is yet another distraction...

Thank you Stomp!

A small issue here is the chart ends at 20 mph :) The other is the chart refers to a specific cassette. Not applicable for another cassette. Also, the whole purpose of the drivetrain is to help the rider to maintain a proper cadence, so I'm not sure whether the chart would be practical on the...

An old thread but now I can contribute a little. My friend and a riding mate for two year now, Tommy, is totally deaf. Yes, he has an implant in his head. To communicate, he needs to attach a receiver to his skull and hang the electronics on his ear. The two years of riding together was a...

@2wheelsgood: I need to rectify the matter as a single thing I said before was indeed wrong! Of course, there is no danger to the motor at your low pedaling cadence when the motor is cut off. Sorry for that. With the 44T chainring and the 11T cassette cog you would hit 45 km/h at the cadence of...

I have tried the calculator i mentioned before. Wheels 38-622 Chainring 44T The smallest cassette cog 11T You will hit 35 km/h at the cadence of 67. Now, if you replace the chainring with a 46T one, the cadence will further drop to 64. Are you aware it is mashing and it is bad both for you and...

Yes, Tomasz/Tomek prefers being Tommy (he can speak English). His last name of Mazurek means "a Mazovian" or "a Masur", very Polish. We even have a cake by that name! As I said, I don't like the direction taken by the brand. Levos are good. Creo 2 is good. Apart, the e-bikes have become...

The Friendship Pond When my friend Jerzy was alive, we found our Friendship Square, which was equidistant (20 km) from our homes. Now, I've known Tommy for over 2 years now and we've become close friends. So we have designated another equidistant meeting point (14 km): The Friendship Pond in...
