Thank you, I had thought of an adjustable stem as well, but my mechanic was leery of messing with the stock stem on the turbo Vado 4. But apparently it can be done!

I was actually having numbness in my right hand before I switched out the handlebars. And I’m not totally upright, even with the swept back handlebars. My hunch is that my wrists are bent and that’s compressing the ulnar or the medial nerve.

Thanks. I did order those GC1’s, hoping they’ll make a difference with some numbness in my right hand.

Thanks for your comment. Do you happen to remember which version of the Ergon grips are for the pullback handlebars you got?

I know it’s been a while, but I wanted post an update on my Ebike search. I ended up getting a Specialized Vado 4.0, the step-through model. It was on backorder for a good month or so, but I finally got it just over two weeks ago. It’s been a really fun new toy. I was really excited to get it...

Thanks Stefan. I definitely need to take a look at the specialized e-bikes.

Thanks! I’ll be taking a look at the Vado 4.0 today.

Thanks, I’ll check out the Riese & Mueller. The Gazelle Ultimate C8 is step-through and has full suspension I believe, as does the Specialized Vado 4.0 step-through, so I’ll check that out too.

Hello everyone. This site is amazing, a bit overwhelming also. And apologies for questions that have been asked and answered. I’m a recreational biker, and at 68, I’m looking at e-bikes for fun and longer rides than I usually do (20-30 miles around the lake and river trails in Minneapolis/St...
