    Tero X Fender Trim to Use on 1UP Hitch Rack

    I have been using a 1UP rack to carry two Como's with fenders and did not have to trim the rear fender. I simply lowered the spacer on the arm that supports the rear wheel. I also added 2" wide velcro straps to add additional stabilization on the front and rear wheels. I don't think you had to...

    New : Turbo Vado 5.0 IGH Belt Drive

    I carry two Como 5's on a 1up rack and have lowered the spacers on the arm that secures the rear tire so that I don't need the foam pads under the fenders. It works just fine.

    New : Turbo Vado 5.0 IGH Belt Drive

    I use a 1Up rack to carry two 2021 Como 5's with fenders. I adjusted the cross bars on one arm so that it still puts secure pressure on the tires, not the fenders. Works great with no problems.

    New Como design may cause some problems. Solutions?

    What about damage to the finish where the clamp holds the frame? I would think over time the paint would get damaged from vibration. Nothing touches the bike frame on my 1Up rack.

    Picking up new Como this week - what's my checklist?

    My 2021 Specialized warranty does not state that registering the bike is required nor is a 6 month warranty service required to maintain the warranty.

    I've heard that concern in some youtube videos on chain maintenance. I use compressed air to blow water off my chain after a wet clean and haven't noticed any problems so far.

    Questions on current Como 4

    We went with the GCS-3 Large purchased from this Ebay seller. About $20 cheaper than Amazon: https://www.ebay.com/itm/202810351014 So far very happy with them.

    Questions on current Como 4

    My wife rides a 2021 Como 4 and I have a 2021 Como 5. I don't notice a difference between the two in most situations. The Como 5 is easier to maintain top speed than the 4 because of the additional gears. I prefer the larger capacity battery on the 5 over the Como 4.

    2020 COMO 3.0 MPH Derestricted with Planet3

    I used Planet 3's on our class 1 2019 Como 2.0's and decided that we liked the extra speed so we ended up buying class 3 Como's to get the larger capacity batteries and more powerful motors. I much prefer the feel of the class 3 bikes over the derestricted version.

    2020 COMO 3.0 MPH Derestricted with Planet3

    The Planet 3 works great however your speedometer and distance travelled will not be recorded properly by the bike.
