Kiox:- Selected Gear Display Improvement? The new Kiox update has many excellent features including custom displays. For those with eshift it is now possible to include the current gear selected as a clearly visible data display on a custom screen with other data such as speed, cadence and trip...

Hi Steve. My update does not appear to have changed my start gear selection. I had originally set to 6th gear and still reverts to 6th gear after update. Have you tried resetting since update in case your dealer changed the setting then. Cheers

I have now customised the screen displays for my updated Kiox. Options available via the "Settings" screen when the Kiox is installed on the bike. You can configure the number of zones per display up to 4 zones and then then select the data to be displayed in each zone. The power graphic can...

Hi Steve, I have started a thread in the Bosch forum specifically to suggest improvements to Bosch. You may wish to reference there and copy to the Bosch thread. https://electricbikereview.com/forums/threads/product-improvement-feedback-to-bosch.35566/ Regards Stephen

Hi Alan, I have started a thread in the Bosch forum specifically to suggest improvements to Bosch. You may wish to post there. https://electricbikereview.com/forums/threads/product-improvement-feedback-to-bosch.35566/ Regards Stephen

Some manufacturers now have representatives making helpful contributions to this forum. Bosch is one example. If forum members have our own product improvement suggestions perhaps one option is to add any suggestions to this thread with a specific subject line clearing identifying the suggestion...

I now have the latest Gen4 update on my R&M Delite courtesy of my LBS. While I was happy with the original Gen4 motor the new update is a noticeable improvement. Not quite a Tesla upgrade that enables you to summon your car from the carpark but really good that Bosch supports their products in...

Now have the latest firmware upgrade for my Kiox (3.0.1.0) and the first obvious improvement to me is that the Kiox automatically syncs after you turn off it off but before powering down. Previously it seemed I had to cycle the Kiox to start a new trip before it would recognise the previous...

Hi William, Thanks you for your latest post which I do interpret that 0% would mean all your "available" battery capacity has been used and that anything remaining is that which is required to ensure that the battery is not damaged by excessive discharge. I think all those participating in...

Hi William, Thanks for your all your responses on this subject. Much appreciated. Yes I did indicate that for my R&M model the loss of power from the motor is at 10% on my Kiox display. Other Bosch models may be different. My R&M configured light power appears to be set at 11w so the...

Hi Mike, Certainly would be helpful if William is able to establish how the 10% battery level relates to the minimum safe discharge level. If it is 10% above the safe minimum discharge level then it might be possible to use some remaining capacity for a limp home mode. If the safe minimum...

The Kiox has a number of screen display options and certainly the power graphics screen shows which gear is selected all the time but in a small size font as per my comment above. Another screen option just momentarily displays the gear selected as you change which is similar to what you...

Hello William, Good to see your contribution to the forum as technical information on behalf of the manufacturer is much appreciated. Some points:- a) Is the light power selection a user option or requires dealer input. b) I have been doing some range calculations on a standard route based on...

I would hope Bosch would welcome all your suggestions whether viable or not. Very beneficial for a company to have input from someone having first hand knowledge of a large customer/user base and no doubt you can do this without being their FB friend.☺☺☺☺

Just thinking this could perhaps be considered as a future software upgrade. Even having an extra 5% in eco might get you home. Cheers

Hi Chris, Thanks for the video on the Bosch Gen4 Software upgrades coming. Do you know if this upgrade includes a limp home mode so perhaps motor will run to 5% battery charge. Perhaps in conjunction when battery gets to 1%-2% rohloff gear selection defaults to that gear specified as starting...

Interesting that the he Bosch website does not seem to list a hub gear option for the Gen4 HS version but Steve has that version. I will do some more searching for a Gen4 power curve as new motor does have more power than the earlier versions. Cheers

Hi Alaskan, Have you seen a power curve posted anywhere for the Gen4 Bosch Motors?? PS Are you OK to travel to Sitka this season or do you have travel restrictions. ? We are expecting there may be travel allowed between Australia and New Zealand soon but borders closed to elsewhere. Stay Safe...

Hi Steve, Not sure if the power curve I have used applies to your motor but if so you will be better off in a higher gear than 10 or 11 so maybe see how you go in 12th or 13th gear at 28 mph. At 110 cadence you are dropping down the power curve and I think you will get more torque using a gear...

Hi Steve, What gear were you in at 28 mph??
