I left mine plugged in and when I woke up the Green light was on so I plugged in the battery and it charged! Amazing, but now I bought a new one and found a used one on eBay for $120. So with three chargers, I can place one in the front of the house, the garage, and one indoors. I'm all set to go.I have a spare charging brick. That’s the benefit of having you first Vado stolen

One of the benefits of buying three Bosch-powered ebikes is a trio of chargers. I have two of them I’ve not taken out of the box yet.

You might find it interesting chargers for Vado/Como (36 V) are not the same as ones for SL e-bikes (48 V).One of the benefits of buying three Bosch-powered ebikes is a trio of chargers. I have two of them I’ve not taken out of the box yet.

Well, the chargers for the Allants are 4 amp and the charger for the Rail is a 2 amp (compact).

At least the voltage is the same.

Finally got my seat post and installed it over lunch. So far, it's pretty amazing. I'll see how it fairs on a longer ride tomorrow morning. Impressed by how much it absorbs.
Should get the Redshift Shockstop stem this week too. Pretty sure I'll need new spacers and a cap for that though. Wasn't thinking when I ordered it. Figure the LBS has some though.

that blows but you have to email them to get it . want the code ? Maybe they will do something for you . The code changes each month . Redshift is open about their 10% Kinekt stays silent unless you ask . which kinda sucks IMO

I'll give it a shot...it was through Amazon but I think it was through their Amazon "Store".
Anyone have an opinion on Pedals? Thinking either the Specialized Bennies or Crank Brothers Stamp 1. Feet slip off way too easy on the stock pedals on the Como.

Isn't it
Highly recommended. Race Face Chesters are equally good. If you need something easier on your shins and calves, go for Race Face Ride.
Nothing wrong about Bennies, only Specialized are not pedal experts.

No cover is need . If it gets dusty when you do your bike cleaning spray it off and then blast some compressed air. when I got mine that cover they sell was included as a promotion . I ended up tossing it . Plus it takes away from the cool look of the stem . At least IMO It's like having covers for your golf irons . It's a gimmick to get you to spend money

If flats, Bubbly Pedals from SimWorks are incredible. Beautiful, spins like Teflon on ice, comfortable grippy platform. Made by renown Japanese bike company MKS to SimWorks specifications.

It really is. My wife is excited to know how well it works and if I like it, i'll be ordering her one this week.Isn't it
Awesome...I know the Crank Bros are readily available locally....might get them today. I'll keep any eye out for the Race Face Chesters when I go...Luckily I have 4 places close by to check.

They are definitely sharp looking..maybe wont dig the shins as bad either...assume they hold the feet really well in place?

I've used CB Stamp 1 & 7 on three different e-bikes, and RF Chesters on the fourth one. I install RF Ride when a lady is expected to ride my e-bike. Their beautiful legs deserve no damage!

They are very grippy. I haven’t had pedals dig into my shins since the 1990s, but I rode differently back then. The platform is large and grippy. Your foot will not slip.
Unfortunately Bubbly Pedals are made out of unobtanium. They are always sold out, but they come back in stock in a few weeks. If you’re interested, get on the notification list. SimWorks will let you know 24 hours in advance.
I‘ve never experienced a pedal that spins as freely as these. Just a flick of your finger and it spins and spins. I still can’t believe the watts I was throwing away with all of my previous pedals.
