Good luck! If it is not up to the "contemporary" level, please try two things:I have an Elemnt from 2018 with the very basic display. I'll see how it pairs.
A very practical approach. I own too many pairs of cross-country skis in various sizes - lengths, widths. Some for very classic nordic, some for just forest roads, some for backcountry and some for telemarking. I think I've counted 15 pairs. Unfortunately, at my age and condition many are covered with dust and unused. I do have three road bikes - two electric and one standard. Two mt bikes - none electric and one with front shocks and one very old which did ride nostalgically in Moab dumping me into a creek.I can afford the e-bike. I do not have space to actually keep it.
There is yet another interesting aspect of owning N+1 e-bikes I learned in the times I owned as many as four e-bikes: usage & loyalty. I'm not a collector and use the things I own. With too many e-bikes, some of them are ridden less and less. Nowadays, each of my two e-bikes provides a totally different experience, and their roles are clearly defined. I ride a Vado SL whenever I can, and the powerful Vado is for special missions like long or mountain rides. I wonder what I would do if I owned a gravel e-bike or e-MTB (Vado SL is far more universal than the Creo is, and the e-MTB would not be used much).
Whenever I only think of yet another e-bike, I ask myself this question: "Will it make me a better cyclist?" and the answer is "No"![]()
Your Creo will let you ride the pavement, gravel, and mild off-road. Three e-bikes in one!but hey, I haven't bought a new bike in five whole years!
I'm perfectly ok with the cable being sold separately. If they included it, they'd just charge more for the package, and then the packages would be different for road vs mountain set-ups. This way, everyone uses the same part number for the battery itself, and then everyone knows they need to get the correct cable.You will need the Y cable if you want to charge the range extender and the bike at the same time.
You will also need the road cable for the range extender. They get you coming and going!
Unsure if you ordered from an LBS but most will offer 15% discount on accessories when purchasing a bike.
Yes, you simply use the same cable for any number of Range Extenders you might own.I'm perfectly ok with the cable being sold separately.
