    Specialized app

    Hello all, having a few issues with the Specialized app. * Frequently I finish a ride and notice it's no longer recording the ride. Last week I happened to be looking when the app crashed with a "no longer responding" message. Any ideas what might cause that? I'm running on an Android phone...

    Considering a Specialized, got a few questions

    I'm bike shopping. Whoo there is a bewildering array of available options. I'm starting to zero in on Specialized, though Trek is not out of the running yet. I definitely want a mid-drive with torque sensor. Concern: I read a lot of comments saying Specialized's service is crap, while Trek...

    Hub, mid, torque sensor

    I'm looking at ebikes, and I went to Lectric to ride the XP3.0 and XPremium. The XP3.0 felt good, decent handling, but I HATE HATE HATE the cadence sensor on the hub drive. I don't like that it suddenly slams into gear and practically dumps you off the back, and I also don't like that the hub...
