    Replacing my stolen Vado 5.0 with a Vado SL 4.0?

    Yeah, here we can't even order...just ask to be notified when orders are being taken again. It's a bummer.

    Replacing my stolen Vado 5.0 with a Vado SL 4.0?

    Just want to say I really appreciate this conversation :) Thank you all for the info, too! I'm hoping that an SL shows up at my LBS so I can try it, but it's definitely difficult to find right now. Maybe next spring...

    Replacing my stolen Vado 5.0 with a Vado SL 4.0?

    Thanks @kahn for the info...sounds like you do some nice rides around town. One thing I should've mentioned is that I haven't been able to find any small SLs locally to even try...so I'd probably need to purchase online from Specialized and have it sent to the shop. Such a bummer missing the...

    Looking for my first ebike

    Thanks for the replies! I was thinking a mid drive; I was mostly thinking the big 3 based on ease of maintenance, getting parts, etc., and what's most available nearby.

    Looking for my first ebike

    Hi there! Looking for advice from the experts on my first ebike purchase. I'm looking mainly at the big three, since I'd like to go through a local shop. Test rides are pretty limited at the moment, so I'm hoping to narrow down choices with your input until I can get in to try them out. Here...
