    Mahle iwoc - can't change levels

    No still there but dealer put a code in enable the iWok one to work, which disables the iWok trio. Don’t think they have improved the iWok trio yet - not good really

    Mahle iwoc - can't change levels

    They gave me the option of removing it and using the iWok One button instead. I have opted to use the app to control the assistance levels, even though it requires a heavy phone holder on the handlebars with a power bank connected to stop my iPhone battery clapping out on me. Not good, but works...

    Orbea Gain variants question

    I wish they would as I am about to get the 4th iWok trio fitted to my 2020 Gain Urban! they just keep failing. Does anyone know if assist levels can be changed using the top tube mounted iWok 1 on flatbar bikes? I have tried and failed to do this.

    Orbea Gain iwok trio

    I have exactly the same problem, my Gain was purchased in 2021 and I am now on my third iWok trio. Did you find a cause or workaround?

    Orbea Gain iWok not changing levels

    Does anyone know why my iWok trio handlebar controller keeps failing? My Orbea Gain Urban is just 4 years old, the controller will switch on / off but has no LED’s showing and will not alter the power level above 1. It is currently on its 3rd controller and that now has also failed. 1) Any way...

    Mahle iwoc - can't change levels

    Did you ever find the cause of the iWok trio not changing power levels? I have had exactly the same problem you describe but I am on my 3rd controller which has now failed again! I can get another new one fitted but should not have to on a 3 year old bike! Any suggestions?

    X35 giving no assistance

    Well pleased to report, got this sorted. Replaced the PAS sensor (that reads speed off the cassette locking ring magnets) The Mahle X35 PAS sensor is easily available on line from several bike shops. Bike had been off the road for several months now with this problem. Orbea, Mahle or my dealer...

    Mahle X35 PAS sensor problem

    I wonder if the problem is coming from the other end of the sensor cable (where it plugs in) that cover is not exactly water tight, mine was full of crap when I removed it

    Mahle X35 PAS sensor problem

    Very interesting, I have an Orbea Gain, that has been off the road now for several months with loss of assistance, 89% charge only 45 charge cycles. Shows zero range but no error code. It has been in and out of the local dealer they spoke to Orbea who said it needs a new battery but agree that...

    Gain D40 - loss of assist

    I have posted a similar thread but just noticed yours, I have had this problem twice now, flashing pink light the first time but not the second. The charge was 95% but range shows zero and 44 charge cycles (the bike can easily do 65+ miles on one charge). I did clean the sensor ring and PAS the...

    X35 giving no assistance

    My Orbea Gain Urban is 3 years old, and has had several problems including 2 new Iwok handlebar controllers. Last week for the second time it lost assistance whilst I was riding it, app showed 95% charge but zero range. Whilst riding it to the dealer (zero assistance) it started working, they...

    Orbea Gain iWok not changing levels

    It does have a frame button, which appears to change it from level 1 to 2 but the Mahle app shows it has not changed. Anyway, I have asked them to fit a new Iwok which I will have to pay for, not happy as this will be the second Iwok it has had and the dealer told me he has replaced others

    Orbea Gain iwok trio

    Having said it has failed again, I am wondering if that is actually what has happened, it powers on/off fine and goes to assist level 1 but won’t advance to assist level 2 or 3. If I try to advance the levels using the main button (top tube) it appears to go to level 2 but the app shows it has...
