Thanks again @William - Bosch Team . Excellent info. Thanks for the tip on the Torx-Plus TP40. I just ordered a 3/8 socket in this size so I can put it on my torque wrench! I'm not inclined to tinker with anything on the bike that I don't need to. Removing the mounting plates would not...

Thanks @William - Bosch Team , I have this system all installed and working using individual wires for the front and rear light connected to separate ports on the motor. I sourced the connectors on ebay (they were Supernova Bosch light install kits). I did a careful job of soldering the...

Hey @William - Bosch Team , I was able to get the front light installed last night. A couple of interesting tidbits you might be interested in... The Trek light system (front and rear) was all wired into the same port on the motor. I believe this was done because of their proprietary 'high...

Well, That $10 25.4mm adapter I bought on Amazon worked a treat. At first I was a bit put off by the tilt/angle of the buttons, but once I got it snugged up against the Kiox mount, and trimmed the 25.4mm tube down to the minimum length I needed to mount it securely, it actually works really...

Thanks again @William - Bosch Team , I opened the packaging for my NIP and TUCK lights, and there are no 'connectors' for the connection to the motor. Just bare tinned wires. There literally NO instructions, other than how to strap the light to your seatpost and handlebars. I checked...

Thanks @William - Bosch Team , I found something similar to that on Amazon and ordered one just to get the bike going. I checked in on Trek's twitter askind them if dropping the motor to remove the OEM lights and replace them with the L&M would void my warranty. They said it wouldn't but of...

@William - Bosch Team , @Stephen - Bosch Team and all, Well I have some big news to update this thread. I was finally able to source one of the Acid Kiox mounts from an eBay seller in Germany. I saw it listed (complete with a Kiox controller and mount as a set), and messaged him asking if he...

Well, strike 2 on the Acid Mount Bracket for the Kiox. I emailed the local Mustache and Cube dealers. Apparently the "Acid" brand is Cubes accessories brand (at least that's what I'm being told), and the Acid accessories are not available in the US - at least not yet. I guess I need to make...

I agree @Saratoga Dave . Having the Bosch reps here is a huge plus for me. There is a lot of trepidation involved with spending big money on an eBike. One of the reasons I chose the Trek was Bosch' reputation for quality and durability. Having participation from their support team here on...

@Ebiker01 , You need to be careful about dispensing this kind of advice here. I just looked at this charger on Amazon, and in the reviews/question and answers section, Grin themselves says this won't work with Bosch systems without 'hacking' the system...

Thanks @Ebiker01 , I appreciate the info, but I really want to stick with integrated lights (not have to deal with separate cells to charge/replace), and just keep the system as simple and clean as possible. I'm either going to go with either the L&M NIP/Tuck system, which will more than serve...

Unfortunately, It's going to be a bit before I can attend to the Trek. I had to leave town to deal with a family situation, and not sure when I'll be home and able to ride. I'm still scouring the interwebs looking for a source for that Acid mount (I think they are used on some Cube bikes...

Thanks @William - Bosch Team . I don't think it's worth the downgrade to the older display unit. I actually like the Kiox display. I just want slightly different light functionality than the stock Trek setup allows, and to hopefully disengage the fixed Light/Kiox mount system.

Hey @Ebiker01 , According to the Bosch folks in this thread, the Seca wouldn't work, which is why I went with the NIP800 (yet to attempt to install it). As far as carrying the second battery (i.e having additional range option beyond the single battery), it's just something i wanted to have...

Thanks @Stephen - Bosch Team , I really appreciate you guys chiming in here. I've still not been able to find of the Acid Kiox Mount Brackets anywhere. I've found a few sources, but they are all in Europe, and those that aren't out of stock, don't ship to the US. I'll keep an eye on Ebay...

It seems I've found a source for the mount shown on Moustache Bikes website at bike-discount.de. They call it the Acid Bosch Kiox Bracket. Unfortunately, they don't even list the US as a delivery destination (American Samoa and Puerto Rico are listed along with most other countries - but I...

Thanks @William - Bosch Team , This is super helpful! That color is actually a Trek Project 1 "Brushed Metal" finish. Probably not many of them floating around. I'm not too fussed about colors, but the three defaults were pretty terrible, so I went with the P1 option. That picture was taken...

THANK YOU SO MUCH @William - Bosch Team !! This kind of customer service is one of the reasons customers become loyal to brands! Your explanation of the light modes is great, but there is one piece I dont fully understand. You said that the Kiox should be able to turn the lights off and on...

Hi all, This is a difficult question to ask, as the issue is somewhat complicated and difficult to describe. I have a Trek Domane+ HP7 with the Bosch Performance Speed Motor, and an integrated proprietary mount (Blendr type thing) that is clamped to the handlebar between the stem bolts. I...
