    Bull's 4th gen Bosch first ride very limited power uphill.

    Correct, but that only adjusts the displayed speed to correct it when using different size tires. It can be done by anyone using the settings menu on the bike computer. It does not affect the real speed limit. You don't go 5% faster if you lower it 5%, it only displays 5% faster speed. But you...

    Bull's 4th gen Bosch first ride very limited power uphill.

    No dealer can do that. You should know by now. But no worries, looks like most users don't know what the wheel circumferece correction is for and how it works. Edit: Ok, now I understand 😂 That is most likely impossible at 4Mph. @Dinnerfork just ride in the first gear when it is steep. I have...

    Error 640 on Bosch Powertube 500 battery after 1000 hours of use

    It usually does not matter if you leave Bosch batteries stored for 2 years, but this is a little different with your batteries now. If you are not using these worn out batteries over a longer period of time, they can get too far out of balance where they don't accept any charge anymore. So I...

    Error 640 on Bosch Powertube 500 battery after 1000 hours of use

    So we were able to do a remote diagnose (bike connected to a computer in an internet cafe). And - just as expected - we see this error on the batteries: Critical error: Debalance voltage limit exceeded. ⇒ no voltage supply, system shutdown This can happen after over 600 charging cycles. So there...

    After knowing what you know now, would you go with the smart system or not?

    That is just your opinion. That is only true for the popup notification that nobody needs anyway. All other miles and kilometers are displayed correctly.

    Bosch Nyon system abandoned?

    You can also turn the bike on with the power button on the battery. Works best with the frame battery or rack battery as it is hard to get to the button on the power tube. And it is 10 minutes. It dimms the display after 5 minutes and turns off after another 5 minutes if no button is pressed...

    After knowing what you know now, would you go with the smart system or not?

    Ah, like when they say they go 60 miles on a battery, they actually go 60 Mph? Don't know why someone would just skip the most important part of a unit. Does not make sense.

    After knowing what you know now, would you go with the smart system or not?

    There are no 750W or 1250W bikes with a Bosch. They are rated 250W and 350W. I am happy with my 2nd generation Bosch and 4th generation Bosch as they share the same batteries. The smart system has new batteries and chargers that are not compatible with the non-smart system, but if you just start...

    New Bosch Performance Line Gen3 (BDU 385P) 65Nm

    It's like having a battery not attached. Or a wheel. Or a seat. Or pedals.

    Cargoline - Shimano Cues upgrade

    You can read a lot of BS here. Or you misunderstood what he was saying. No dealer can do that. There are exceptions when Bosch or a representative from a bike manufacturer can do this in case there is an issue with the installed software container. They can do this remotely on a dealer's...

    New Bosch Performance Line Gen3 (BDU 385P) 65Nm

    Kinda funny because I got multiple PMs from you and already replied

    Cargoline - Shimano Cues upgrade

    That only was an issue when you created a 1:1 gear ratio 10 years ago - to prevent the "magnet on the crank" tuning. So that was before anyone in the US even heard of "pedal assist".

    Cargoline - Shimano Cues upgrade

    Just don't listen to all the BS you hear. You have no idea what I heard the past 12 years with the Bosch motors. Sometimes you just cannot make things up. It's like there are still people that beleive the earth is flat. Everyone has their own opinion and is free to believe whatever they hear...

    Anyone know what the update did for the Nyon?

    I'm using that same piece of hardware (1GB Nyon Generation 1) for 9 years now. And because it is Bosch, I am confident that I can use it another 9 years with updated maps every now and then.

    Error 640 on Bosch Powertube 500 battery after 1000 hours of use

    No need, happy to help. Wherever you have access to a Windows PC, they should have a micro USB cable, too.

    Error 640 on Bosch Powertube 500 battery after 1000 hours of use

    @Marcparis if you have access to a Windows computer and a micro USB cable and internet connection, send me a PM and we can do a diagnostic report. Then you'll exactly see what the issue is.

    Error 640 on Bosch Powertube 500 battery after 1000 hours of use

    Sounds exactly like at least one block's voltage is drifting away. I've rebuilt a few batteries like that. Too bad you're too far away.

    Torque upgrade on Active Line

    If you could get a brand new US CX motor for 400€ or a 25km/h CX for 600€, you would still get the 25? Hard to believe. The US versions work well with the dongles, too. The only downside of the US motors is, that they are considered S-Pedelecs in the Nyon routing. That sucks because it is...

    Bosch's battery recommendations

    Exactly what I wrote. I know, there are members here that are ok with two charges a year, but I am actually using my ebikes for what they are made for.
