    Buying a bike in Europe from overseas

    John, you may have gotten your question answered already, but I wanted to post here just in case. Unfortunately it’s not possible to pick up your bike at the R&M factory so my suggestion would be to purchase the bike from a dealer in Europe.

    Locks and Security Solutions for Electric Bikes

    I posted a separate thread about this in accessories, but since there was a lot of discussion about keyed alike here I figured I would post here as well. The Abus Keyed Alike program has always been popular in our shop and we recently made a video and built a tool to make the program more...

    COBI.Bike with Bosch Performance Speed?

    This is only not supported in Europe. The issue is that the display doesn’t display the speed in certain screens and this is illegal in Europe due to special regulations on speed bikes.

    Abus: their website shows no dealers in the US....

    Not sure what’s up with the dealer locator, but technically any Abus dealer can order keyed alike locks. I’d be happy to help if you shoot us an email on propelbikes.com. We’re also in the process of building a keyed alike ordering page on our website to make this process easier.

    Intermittent non-connection, Bosch Performance Line

    You can test this by putting your bike in a high gear (hard to pedal) and coast at a low speed (5-6 mph) and try to resume pedaling, it’s likely that you won’t have the issue. Keep in mind that the motor works based on your cadence and torque, if the bike doesn’t sense you need the power it...

    Intermittent non-connection, Bosch Performance Line

    I bet Rich C is right. You’re probably in the wrong gear.

    Intermittent non-connection, Bosch Performance Line

    I put together a video about troubleshooting Bosch issues and this is one of the first topics. I think @rich c described a good solution above. I would also recommend getting a software update as the new software decreases the chances of this happening since it can handle a brief period without...

    Bosch gen 4 cx motor.

    Thanks Steve! Same to you my friend. New Yorkers are strong. We’ll get through this.

    Bosch gen 4 cx motor.

    There is little to no resistance in Gen 3 and Gen 4 motors.

    Bosch gen 4 cx motor.

    To be clear, this resistance from the reduction gear is only present on the Gen 2 motors. Gen 3 and 4 don’t have a reduction gear.

    Bosch gen 4 cx motor.

    The Gen 3 Performance Line is ideal for the Ultimate T10 65Nm of torque and a smooth power curve. The Gen 3 Performance Line is a great motor. I can see why some might want the Gen 4 CX, but it wouldn’t be at home on the bike in my opinion. If you want a low step bike with the Gen 4 CX I would...

    Second, third or 4th gen motor info needed please.

    That’s the 2nd Gen motor. The CX motor wasn’t made in a Gen 3, they went right to Gen 4.

    Low Battery Cutout for Bosch Gen4?

    This is not an option at the dealer level at the moment, but it might change in the near future. To my understanding Bosch is working on making this available.
