    Ebike Garmin apps ~ UPDATE: new multi battery support

    I downloaded the ebike field for my Specialized Creo SL. It'd be perfect for me except for the fact that it only displays the percentage of battery remaining for the main battery, not taking into account the additional percentage that should be added when using the Range Extender battery. It...

    Actually, it's all road riding. Average amount of climbing (1800 feet/45 miles).

    When should l replace my chain?

    I think WD40 is terrible for chains. It's more solvent than lube and does the opposite of what you'd want it to do.

    When should l replace my chain?

    I would replace at 5 but find a way to slow chain wear, as follows: For me, though, my experience has been amazing in this regard. I use Rock and Roll Gold and fully apply and wipe clean every 150 miles. My chain, with now over 4,000 miles on it has only experience stretch by 1/100th of an...

    What is your reply to people commenting about you riding an assisted bike?

    Back in the very early 80's I was the third person on Long Island to don a hard shell helmet (A white Bell, remember?). I received lots of comments and questions. Now you can't officially participate in any sanctioned rides without any of the numerous helmets available. By the mid 80's I...

    DIY: Range extender for Levo (and Kenevo)

    Amazing, completely! The only thing I'm not quite sure of is if it's worth it (strictly from a financial angle) to spend all the time, effort and money to do this, only to save a couple of hundred dollars or less.

    Would you ride it? Turbo Creo SL with all new motor

    Depending on the model of Creo you refer to, the official weight is from 26 1/2 lbs. to about 29 lbs. (multiply by 2.2 to get the kilogram equivalent), with the battery. For most people that weight is well within the confines of "normal" acoustic weight. As to comparison, while the electric...

    Would you ride it? Turbo Creo SL with all new motor

    Sorry if what I address here has been addressed otherwise, but... I have experimented sufficiently with the Creo and found that, for me, I've observed the following: When riding in "Sport" mode which I've programmed to assist from 40-100% of the motor's output (240 watts) depending on my pedal...

    Would you ride it? Turbo Creo SL with all new motor

    Note that the US version which is what I got has a Assisted speed to 28 miles an hour which is 45 km per hour.

    Would you ride it? Turbo Creo SL with all new motor

    I own the Creo SL Comp Carbon. I absolutely LOVE this pedelec (isn't that what it actually is?). I'm in good shape, been "seriously" riding for 40 years (age 69). I love speed and, though I'm putting out my usual wattages, this baby handles speed, turns, descents and road bumps beautifully (I'm...

    Mission Control app let's ride feature

    Can the BLevo app be used on the Specialized Creo SL line? I'm having issues with the Mission Control losing its connection and then regaining it...every 20 seconds!

    Levo - range extender or upgrade to 700 WH battery?

    I have a Specialized Creo SL Comp Carbon (what a ridiculously long name, eh?) and I've been getting 45-50 miles while riding with the "B" group of a local bicycle club. I ride about 35% of it in Eco mode, the rest in Sport mode. The battery is 320 watt hours and, as of yet, I don't use a range...

    Would you ride it? Turbo Creo SL with all new motor

    The main advantage for me is fun. It's fun to go fast under most conditions as long as safety is kept in mind. The nice thing about this bike is its Seamless integration with peddling motion. I still get the work out I would normally do. But I go faster and that makes the difference for me. It's...
