    Nyon '21 updating maps independently

    I think my nyon heard me... It's now thrown it's toys out the pram totally.. I really hope Bosch pay more attention to their control systems for bigger more dangerous vehicles. As having the bike OS crash whilst riding isn't exactly a great thing from a safety aspect.

    Nyon '21 updating maps independently

    The new '21 nyon doesn't seem to get very much in the way of any updates, and the maps appear to be linked to the firmware, and only get updated when the firmware changes. This seems very poor. Why am I running 2 year old maps on my bike and relying on Bosch to update them? Doesn't feel like...

    Nyon / eBike Connect routing is ignoring OpenStreetMap sections marked "no access" etc

    Intersting that the OSM route planning for bicycle goes a different route.. https://www.openstreetmap.org/directions?engine=fossgis_osrm_bike&route=51.7406%2C-0.4767%3B51.8134%2C-0.7278#map=16/51.7670/-0.5814 I did hear the OSM maps in Bosch are REALLY old, and don't get updated very often...

    Cost of an ebike manufactured in the USA

    It's not exactly German engineering engineering or manufacturing.

    Nyon - Join trips on komoot

    Ok, finally found it, there is a clue in the nyon release notes. It's in ebike connect and only the web portal, not the app. komoot: You decide whether, in addition to individual segments, only the daily summary should be synchronised with your komoot profile. You can control this setting in...

    Cost of an ebike manufactured in the USA

    American manufacturering is high cost, low quality.

    Nyon - Join trips on komoot

    So this is driving me insane. At some point during the setup of my Nyon, I had the option to link up journey segments before uploading to komoot. I selected to not do so. I've changed my mind and would rather it did link them all up. I've been hunting for the setting all evening. Can't find it...

    bosch nyon 2021 release date

    I do find the watch shuts it down after a while to save battery, so the best tip I have, assign the app to one of the physical buttons on the fossil watch (it has 3). It's then easy to start up and connect.

    bosch nyon 2021 release date

    Anyone with an AndroidWear based device, this free app works well. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=lukas.the.coder.heartforbluetooth I used it on Fossil Carlyle HR and it connects to Nyon'21 without any problems.

    Anyone get offered "Topo Range" premium add-on?

    That's mighty confusing. So some premium features are paid extras and other premium features come as standard. Seems like German efficiency has gone out the window once the marketing team take over.

    Bosch Smart System, Kiox 300, PowerTube 750, eBike Flow App

    Any update on this? I don't have very good support network in my area, so if I want to go to the effort and expense of getting components updated, I need to know beforehand that it's going to be worthwhile. Also are releases scheduled? If so how often and when? Nobody wants to hear a bunch of...

    Anyone get offered "Topo Range" premium add-on?

    I have a nyon, and it's not offering this to me (only lock and custom rides). If anyone has bought it, how well do the calculations work? https://www.bosch-ebike.com/en/news/what-is-the-premium-topo-range-function

    Nyon MY21 - Initial Thoughts

    Nyon question on the Lock add-on. I already mentioned, it feels mostly useless, it won't stop your bike being stolen, just gives you a warm fuzzy feeling that you screwed over the thief. Does it also lock the nyon to the motor, and prevent the nyon being used on other bikes? If someonee were...

    Nyon MY21 - Initial Thoughts

    Nyon performed equally well on all, always using cycle paths in preference when they took me to the same destination. The cycle lanes used are about 10 years old, I've not been on anything really new. I'm not in a city, but semi-rural UK town, with a good, well established cycle path network...

    Nyon MY21 - Initial Thoughts

    A few days use of my upgraded Nyon'21 (from Intuvia) and i'm really pleased. Routing works really well for me, once I worked out it had an obsession with wanting to go to within a few metres of the programmed start point, and if you didn't do that, it would forever try and re-route you back to...

    Bosch Smart System, Kiox 300, PowerTube 750, eBike Flow App

    I too would like to know what's changed in motor firmware, I have Gen3 performance line motor, and there is an update for it, but I would like to know the details, before I pay a service centre to apply the update. Latest: 1.3.3.0 Mine: 1.3.0.0 I'm also interested in what training a Bosch...

    Intuvia upgrade to Kiox : anyone done this?

    My only advice. If you are dropping the motor, to change the cables, be very careful about torque settings when tightening back up. Read several horror stories about stripped threads on the motor, which is an expensive problem. The TORX T30 screws should be tightened to 10nm torque. So get...

    Nyon '21 new install, weird problems.

    I tried this and it made no difference. I now always have this ghost ride. Is this a common thing?

    Why do the big bike brands (almost) never use hub motors?

    What benefits? The road legal ones I tried were awful compared to mid drives (Bosch and Yamaha). The latency was very noticeable and riding it didn't feel natural at all. I paid extra for a mid drive and never regretted it.
