    My New Globe Haul ST (2 weeks Old now)

    My MIK came with 4 mounting bolts and 4 spacers. I didn't get any self tapping screws. Here is a YOUTUBE link that shows the mounting. Hope this helps. v/r r

    It's cataract surgery time

    I consider the cataract surgery to be one of the greatest gifts of my lifetime. I was functionally blind in one eye when they did my first surgery when I was 41. It was like trying to look through a shot glass that had been smeared with Vaseline jelly. The military did it for me (I was active...

    My New Globe Haul ST (2 weeks Old now)

    Stefan, I believe the Haul ST resulted from a deliberate set of design choices. I believe that the Specialized "turbo" series bikes has shown their abilities to produce batteries and mid-drive e-bikes. I agree the rear hub motor is not an attractive technology, but mine is just about...

    My New Globe Haul ST (2 weeks Old now)

    My New Globe Haul ST (2 weeks Old now)

    I am going to hold my judgement on "plagued". I really like everything about my ST. If I end up with a single "one point" warranty fix, I will be happy. Everything else seems to be living up to the marketing (in my opinion). This is my first "cargo transport" bike and I am using it as...

    My New Globe Haul ST (2 weeks Old now)

    I traded in a 2018 Expert Carbon Turbo Levo for my new Globe Haul ST. I am 73 years old and the Levo had become too much bike for my riding objectives. I am now Bike and Walking paths and wanted to try to be a bit more "Car-Less" in my daily life. I have run into a controller to bike error...

    My new Globe Haul ST by Specialized

    It is less than two weeks old but I am having issues with two controller error codes. They are the same code but one is the controller side (C 032 Controller, No Communication) and one is the battery side (B 032 Battery, No Communication). I love the bike so far, but I am hoping for a...
