    2019–2020 R&M Homage : Riders' Impressions

    I finally got mine working after an update, but it hammers the phone battery with the connect app running in the background 24/7

    Bosch Kiox Electric Bike Display Details

    Well try as I might I am still showing no activities. Also on the map page I should see a trail where i have been but it only shows where I am. What am I not doing?

    The problem with that is that it takes away the spontaneous switch on and ride idea. I used to visit the local post office daily and would enable the alarm for obvious reasons.. but when getting back to the bike it was more the case than not that I would have to mess about with it to switch off...

    i havnt used mine for over 6 months now, but I did have connection problems on a few occasions which turned out to be dirt/water/dust getting inbetween the cobi unit and the phone holder. Pulling it appart and cleaning it made it work again. My main gripe with Cobi was reconnecting after a short...

    A second observation of the 2019 Homage Rohloff GX

    With regard to the e-14 buttons. Whatever replacement is used, if there even is one, will still have the lack of feel that all electronic systems have, but, its winter in the uk and I am riding my Supercharger (e-14) in winter gloves which makes any button pushing issues much worse.. On a ride...

    Bosch Kiox Electric Bike Display Details

    Wow. Oh so simple.. thanks! In the olden days everything came with written comprehensive understandable instructions (which of course I never read first) and due to the scarcity of RM dealers in the UK the selling dealer is a 300 miles round trip away so can't just pop in and ask.... So i have...

    Bosch Kiox Electric Bike Display Details

    Ideally Kiox needs to connect with the bosch connect app like Nyon and like it advises onscreen. Also, and I hope to be corrected here.. If someone asked me how many miles I hade done on the RM, I wouldnt know because unlike Nyon and Intuvia, that information isnt available on any of the Kiox...

    Bosch Kiox Electric Bike Display Details

    Not tried. But interestingly in kiox settings I am refered to the bosch connect app, only to find that kiox is not supported (Yet?) Also , I can't connect my garmin hr strap as it appears that ant+ isn't supported either! I am thinking it was a mistake to go with kiox because it's been released...

    Some questions for owners of R&M Supercharger (or Charger, Nevo, etc.).

    the way to test that would be to be climbing hard in emtb and flick to turbo. In my experience if I am pedaling hard there is no difference, but if pedaling not so hard I can feel the change. Similarly when pedaling easy in emtb a switching to tour offers no change.

    Some questions for owners of R&M Supercharger (or Charger, Nevo, etc.).

    I am guessing you don't suffer much bad weather.. unlike us . It's winter here and is generally wet when its dry so am wondering about some sort of bike cover..

    My plan is.. tow bar to be fitted Thursday by mobile fitter.. buy thule easyfold2.. folds up like a dmall suitcase when not on use and will carry my supercharger with ease

    Some questions for owners of R&M Supercharger (or Charger, Nevo, etc.).

    Ha! Didn't notice the frame number... at least I have a record of it. And yes the Audi is my only car.. Which begs the question... how do you transport a supercharger in an Audi A1? Answer is.. fit a tow bar and use a carrier... But Audi want over £1500 to do it.....

    Some questions for owners of R&M Supercharger (or Charger, Nevo, etc.).

    The saddle is from Lidl and was on another bike and happened to be white. The bosch motor allows powered pedalling above 100 rpm so grippy pedals or spd are required if you do this. I will offer some video clips later.
