    Chain Line - Turbo Creo

    Will do. The chain is on correctly, the gearing is set up perfectly. It is obviously a less than brilliant design/set up if some people resport to changing their chanring...hey ho....the bike is brilliant apart from that.

    Chain Line - Turbo Creo

    Probably, bought 2nd hand with 132km on it, in the UK last month. I live in rural France, nearest dealer is an hour and 40 miles away

    Chain Line - Turbo Creo

    Cheers. It may be just me but....it seems mad that I'd have to do that (or replace the cassette to get a low enough gear) on what is effectively a brand new £4000 bicycle.

    Chain Line - Turbo Creo

    I should have written it more clearly. The chain drops off the inside of the chainwheel when the bike is in 1st gear. You can see that the chain line in that gear is just too much for the chain (God knows what the campag 1 x 13 looks like!) I'll try a new rear block of 11 - 51 which has the...

    Chain Line - Turbo Creo

    Thanks, I don't want to try to put a 2 x 11....I meant using gears 2 to 11 rather than gear no 1...which causes the issue. (I did a search but obviously not well enough)

    Chain Line - Turbo Creo

    I tried a search for this but failed to find anything. New to me Turbo Creo SL and half the time I put it in first gear, the chain drops off. The chain line doesn't look brilliant (I aren't a fan of 1 x 11!) I'm considering getting a bigger set of sprockets than fitted and just using 2-11...but...

    My apologies....I've edited to show UK/EU... I believe in the USA the motor doesn't cut out at 25kmh...but at 32kmh...20mph, so if I lived in the states...I'd be using more battery when riding on flatter terrain as I seem to ride at 16-18mph here.

    Newbie...an Englishman living in France

    Well, I have had my flabber ghasted.....109.97 miles and 9300 feet of ascent and 7% of battery left. 5 rides...I don't know whether that makes a difference, rather than 1 long ride? I suspect that a UK/EU spec bike battery will last longer as it cuts out at c16mph so most flat sections and all...

    Afternoon all.....I've just got my first e-bike, a lightly used Specialized Turbo Creo. I intend using it in and amongst my old fashioned non e-bike. So far so good. 62 miles with 5200ft of ascending and still have 42% of the 320wh battery left. I'm quite amazed if i'm honest (Mainly in eco with...
