    New bike adjustments?

    I think someone else posted here, or somewhere else (FB maybe?) about the B screw on the derailleur? That might be something to check out. Mine came all good from my LBS, but they might have adjusted it already.

    Abus 5750 Frame Lock / Turbo Como frustration

    I went with the 5750L myself, and it fit perfectly on my '22 Vado 4.0. Is that an option for you? I've seen some others that went with the 5755 (L?), which I believe is the updated version of the 5750L that I ordered.

    Vado 5.0 owners: what are you using for a lock?

    I just got my 5750X Abus Cafe lock mounted to my Vado 4.0 tonight. It fits perfectly on the factory mounts/hardware. I'll also run a 6000X Abus folding lock with the bike mount. I'd prefer not to run the folding lock, but it will be handy for when my wife and I want to lock our bikes up...

    Specialized Turbo Vado/Como/Tero/Tero X User Club

    I gave it a whirl tonight. I can confirm the 5750L also fits the 22 Vado 4.0 perfectly with no modifications needed to the lock. I was thinking the screw head might have been too wide, but it was just right.

    2022 Specialized Turbo Vado Help

    I haven't gotten all the way to the end, but I had just got back from vacation so I've missed some posts. Specialized has a snack bag that I'm very interested in picking up. It would also accomodate a water bottle on the main handlebars perfectly...

    2022 Vado 4 Review (after 1000 miles of ownership)

    As a Vado 4 owner, who has only done a 100 or so miles, schedule and weather permitting sadly - I agree with all of the above points. I've also read several reviews about the comparable Trek and Giant brands....I don't find them to be appealing at all. The Bosch motors aren't appealing to me...

    Specialized Turbo Vado/Como/Tero/Tero X User Club

    Are you using both bolt holes without modification? I ordered a 5750L because that was all I could find, but it won't line up with both holes. I do love the 100mm chain with it, it just barely fits my 22' 4.0. I can fit one of the holes, but I love the cafe lock concept. Thanks!

    New Vado 4.0

    Great to hear, I'll probably go that route too and I can supplement them with my hard panniers.

    New Vado 4.0

    Some sites are better at listing them than others. I thought I saw the $160 ish bag had the panniers, while the <$100 bag did not come with them. I might still get that down the road for stuffing a cooler or some other goodies for. I have some koki panniers that are pretty poor quality in size...

    New Vado 4.0

    I love to see all the red colors, the tint isn't done justice unless it's viewed in the sunshine. I picked up mine last Thursday and unfortunately I haven't had a proper ability to put more than 50 or 60 miles on it so far with my schedule. Tomorrow I'm hoping to put a lot more miles on it...

    Got 106 miles on Eco from 2020 Vado 4

    Stefan, I found another post that you and some others had commented on that provided more insight. I don't mean to steal the thread, but I do appreciate everyone's insights. I do need to focus only on my watts only (cadence + gear) will get me there. I will have to pedal at my proper cadence...

    Got 106 miles on Eco from 2020 Vado 4

    Yes, my fingers didn't respond well to my 10-key.

    Got 106 miles on Eco from 2020 Vado 4

    I'm curious how hard he would have to pedal to access that 100% of peak power. This is the explanation I got from a site that specifically talked about the MC app. It makes sense to me in the way they have described it, but I wouldn't expect him to only be at 10% power level if you're pedaling...

    Got 106 miles on Eco from 2020 Vado 4

    There is some great info on Specialized' site about what the peak and support mean. My understanding was that the support level would be the lowest level it would provide, and then the peak would be how much it would kick out. So I set mine up like gears, Eco was 20/35, Sport was 40/65, and then...

    Got 106 miles on Eco from 2020 Vado 4

    Are you saying your peak was 100% and your support was 10%? That's really good battery life, especially for a 2020 that was probably around 500 wH? While I've had my 2022 much higher, I have been tweaking different levels of support, and admittedly....I'm still trying to find the perfect balance...

    Abus Granit Xplus 540 U-lock experiences?

    I've ordered the 100mm chain, I meant to say chain not cable. My apologies. I agree on the convenience. Unless they really want it that bad, most of the time if they are just wanting something...they will find the one with the least amount of resistance. It's always a gamble between the...

    Can One order Garmin Varias on 2022 Turbo Vado 4.0?

    Keep us posted on your experience. I would prefer to do something more natural mounting like on the 5.0, but it's tough to find the perfect spot on my 4.0 with the integrated led tail light. I think I might have to go for a saddle bag to have something to affix it to. I believe you might run...

    Abus Granit Xplus 540 U-lock experiences?

    Thanks for the follow up everyone. I have the Abus Cafe Lock and Chain. I'm going to return the Abus 6500 and go with the Kryptonite, or an Abus U lock. I've also found that I have the opportunity to use some really nice bike lockers at work currently and they are monitored by the city itself...

    Can One order Garmin Varias on 2022 Turbo Vado 4.0?

    I can confirm that the Mastermind TCD allows the connection of a wireless Radar, such as the one rayray posted. The basic one I believe requires wiring/is not wireless, and I'm not sure if there is additional wiring underneath to provide support to it. The Mastermind will also display the dots...

    2022 Turbo Vado 4.0 with Mastermind TCD

    Stephan, I did another ride this morning with the premium eBike Garmin app. It did a much better job of displaying all the data, watts, assist, battery level. I very much love this app. I'm still getting used to the bike and I need to be a bit more casual in my cadence and biking (this was a...
