My feeling is that R&M will continue to treat the UK line mainland Europe. It will add complexity to their supply chain otherwise. The UK might eventually change the regulations, but working in government myself I can tell you nothing happens very quickly.

I had a follow up email from R&M "The update for HS-models cannot be done because of the regulations. It means if you have had a non-HS model, the update may have been done."

I can confirm that there is NO UPDATE for the HS models in Europe. Riese and Muller told me today: Dear Mr Johnson, Thank you for choosing Riese & Müller. Your dealer is right. For HS models, which have been produced for the European market, this software update cannot be done, we are afraid...

I took my Superdelite HS 2020 in for an update and the engineers at FUllychgarged in London confirmed that there’s no motor update for the high speed model. There’s just an update for the Kiox controller.

The Tinker has a frame lock which is okay to stop anyone from just jumping on and cycling off. The superdelite weighs 32.5Kg so nobody will easily carry it off. I think the Bordo is a poor lock choice; It's not strong enough (silver rating) to use as the main lock and it's a heavy cafe lock...

As a new rider and a nerd, I use both Komoot (pro) and eBike connect. I create routes in Komoot then view the navigation on my Kiox. This is the best solution if you need to save your phone's battery power. However, the Kiox only shows a single line and is slow-ish tracking so it's quite poor...

Please post links to videos of guidance on how to remove the rear wheel with the Rohloff gear. The front is easy to remove, but in the field, on a bike that weighs 32Kg, I have no idea how I'm going to change a rear wheel tube.

I can confirm that the Kiox provides sufficient current to the iPhone X. I cycled for five hours with the iPhone on the brightest setting using Komoot navigation and Geotag Photos Pro – photo GPS tracker. The phone's battery stayed at 100%.

I used the new navigation system yesterday on a 75k ride. I eventually switched back to Komoot on my smartphone for the following reasons: The screen map display lags, especially when going fast. I missed so many turns because the directions on screen didn't keep up Crashing Bosch Connect app...

Here's an update on my Restrap Rando Bag. I did a 75km trip yesterday from London to the countryside. I was on hills, roads, dirt tracks and I frequently stopped and took my bag with me. It's hardly a three-year world tour, but it's enough to identify some of the pros and cons. Pros Maximum...

The Bosch cable works. I just received it today. https://electricbikereview.com/forums/threads/komoot-and-the-new-bosch-kiox-navigation.35497/post-300668

I can confirm the official Bosch charge cable passes a charge to the iPhone. I can’t say how well the charge keeps up with the phone’s screen

They need to release a UK version which replaces calories with pints of beer used. Then I know how many to order when I get to the pub.

You can charge your external devices from the Kiox. The manual states: The USB port can be used to operate or charge most devices that can be powered via USB (e.g. various mobile phones). Charging requires the on-board computer to be mounted and a sufficiently charged battery to be inserted in...

I read that it should be possible to customise the Kiox with the new version 3. I'll give it a go tomorrow

I've had a breakthrough! I can see all my Komoot and e-bike connect saved routes in the Bosch Connect app now. The list is accessed through the map compass icon! It wasn't obvious at all.

Thanks for the tip. However, in practice, I'll be out riding somewhere when I need to plan a route to my next destination in Komoot. It's a pity that it won't be a seamless connection between Kommot and the Boshe Connect app. I found this caveat on the Komoot website Komoot website Connection...

@dblhelix how did you override the settings? Is there a setting somewhere that I might have missed?

Update I talked to the technicians at fully charged in London. They said that they can't access the Bosch software to allow me to override the light setting. The only solution would be to hard-wire a switch in the cable.
