That Dji motor will be appearing next in another (and pretty unknown) Chinese brand called Teewing!The Amflow in full song
My wife paid you to say that, didn't she?VERDICT
If someone of you already owns a Vado SL 1 then there is no reason for buying the SL 2.
Are you sure about that boost factor of 1.8 for the 1.2 motor? When I was building my interactive Turbo PAS model, I found a boost of 2.3 in some official Specialized online document pointed out by @Allan47.7339 , I believe. Wish I still had the link.Now, the SL 1.2 has the same max Assist of 1.8x but 320 W maximum motor power.

I've never heard of Teewing Bikes, but this Chinese brand is already teasing a DJI Avinox-equipped full-suspension e-bike - MBR
The Chinese mobility brand, better known for its electric scooters, looks set to be the latest manufacturer to offer an e-bike powered by the much-hyped DJI Avinox motor. A single post on the brand’s totally new instagram account shows a carbon full-suspension bike fitted with what looks to be...www.mbr.co.uk
Sounds like the DJI motor could launch dozens of new Chinese emtb brands a la Chinese cars.
Good for consumers perhaps (lower ££$$€€) but not amazing for established and already feeling battered Western brands.
Aha i thought i recognized the railway museum. Been a while since I was in Warsaw.
This is also related to the wheels (the front one with 24 spokes). Not every commuter is a heavy person... I wouldn't take a risk anyway. Additionally: I ride two good e-bikes; no space for yet another. Besides, I really could not find the structural weight limit for the alloy version in support.specialized.com.Given the abuse carbon road bikes take - look at the way pro sprinters twist them going hell for leather at 50mph, or emtb riders abusing their bikes in the worst terrain with jumps and drop offs, I'm surprised by that fairly low weight limit. Especially as a commuter bike designed to carry things to work etc.
That's why I'm riding my 17 kg Vado SL 1 de-equipped on the gravel group ride in the Military Range today(You should think positively! Spring is in the air! With all the excited riding you'd get on a new steed the weight would come down and the carbon limits would be safe!)
You were reasoning well, of course.Aha i thought i recognized the railway museum. Been a while since I was in Warsaw.
Yes, of course, she didMy wife paid you to say that, didn't she?
You are right Jeremy. It is 2.3x max Assist. Correcting it in the review.Are you sure about that boost factor of 1.8 for the 1.2 motor?

She asked me why I wouldn't sell my two e-bikes to get one. My answer was: "Old e-bikes do not sell well"Perhaps if Stefan hadn't been so enamored with the man's wife he could have sold him his Vado and bought the new one.
Mulezen, where is this? Beautiful!After dealing with ailments (and bad weather) this past winter I've begun riding again. The last few rides with conditioning improving have been very enjoyable

Rear pastures...An energetic weather front came through the other day. Afterwards I looked out and discovered the rainbow...I was actually looking for deer which I failed to notice until later.

I rode this route yesterday...big changes since my last tour in the fall. I've bought round rolls for my stock from this hayfield...that clover...I'd eat it if I were a cow.
My pastures are turning green and thickening, the cardinals redder than the robes that borrowed their name, all kinds of energy making me long for another herd.

I'm only patriotic when good things are made in our country. I recommend DT Swiss wheel rims from Oborniki, Greater Poland, or Garbaruk drivetrain components from Nowa Huta, Kraków, Lesser PolandI can't believe it has taken me so long to realise why Stefan likes Specialized, he thinks they are Polish.
