    Nyon MY21 mapping use problems (+ post April 2022 software updates)

    ok, i will grant you that is weird... when I did that in google, if you click "details" it tells you to walk your bike, which... why does it think that's a good answer? although google did get the actual route i took correct: https://goo.gl/maps/uWq6KCKUPXFszqCx8 whereas Nyon had me take a...

    Nyon MY21 mapping use problems (+ post April 2022 software updates)

    FYI I opened a case with Bosch but haven't gotten anything back but an autoreply... @Stefan Mikes might be dying to say "I told you so" but I'll spare him from having to do that. I read through the threads about Nyon, etc and thought "ah, how bad could it be?" I love everything about my bike...

    Nyon MY21 mapping use problems (+ post April 2022 software updates)

    I ride mostly for transportation, so having to go use a computer to make a route is impractical in a lot of cases, and a pain in the butt in 100% of cases. So, I often know kind of where I'm going but want some guidance for unfamiliar parts. This particular route below, I really could have used...

    Nyon MY21 mapping use problems (+ post April 2022 software updates)

    I'm super disappointed that pretty much every time I try to use my Nyon for navigation it tries to send me the wrong way down a one-way street. It's happened to me 3 times now in completely different places.

    New Features for Nyon2 scheduled april 2022

    I'm missing some rides from earlier in the week and today (and the one that did upload is kind of messed up).

    iZip e3 Dash (2018) / Tranzx M16 DIY repair

    I'm like 95% sure all I need is that gear assembly sitting perpendicular between the two halves of the motor casing at the bottom of the photo (that's what's disassembled in my original picture), but they won't sell it to me :(

    iZip e3 Dash (2018) / Tranzx M16 DIY repair

    Finally talked to a shop last week... $880 for a new drive assembly, installed. I didn't ask them about the price without installation because I assume it comes with a warranty I probably won't get if I install it myself, plus they said some programming needs to be done that I probably don't...

    Nyon MY21 mapping use problems (+ post April 2022 software updates)

    hm, that's actually interesting... i guess, if I were in a car I pretty much always just want the GPS to re-route from the current location to the destination, although I could see cases on a bike where you may not want that, like a section of trail is closed so you want to detour and go back...

    Nyon MY21 mapping use problems (+ post April 2022 software updates)

    wow, i read people talking about nyon routing before i upgraded and thought "how bad could it really be?" well, that was foolish... i used it for the first time today, I looked up a destination on the phone app (not sure if that was the cause of some of the misbehavior?). I was kind of in a...

    iZip e3 Dash (2018) / Tranzx M16 DIY repair

    I took the bike out for a ~10 mile ride, including some steep hills, and it's working ok, but something is still clearly wrong... sometimes it didn't feel like it's providing full boost. I'm worried it will fail again. I had also filed a support case with izip - I didn't hear from them so I...

    Gazelle Ultimate C380+ vs Specialized Turbo Vado 5.0 IGH

    thanks... my N is in constant flux although I recently loaned/gave a few bikes to family members so some space freed up :) I just watched this whole 1+ hour video on the Nyon and I think I'm pretty sold on it, but will definitely read some other threads...

    Abus Chain Lock Transportation

    I just bought one (both the bike and the chain lock!) today - the guy at the bike shop wrapped it around the seatpost... which, I'm not sure about, I do touch it with my legs a bit... but it will be nice to be able to go out without a bag, or u-lock in the pocket or on the handlebars, etc.

    Gazelle Ultimate C380+ vs Specialized Turbo Vado 5.0 IGH

    well, I went to the shop today, took the Gazelle out for a ride, wavered for a while, and ultimately decided to buy it. It's a super nice bike, and ultimately I decided that while the Specialized might be a little nicer, the bigger battery is really the main draw for me, I don't think it will...

    Gazelle Ultimate C380+ vs Specialized Turbo Vado 5.0 IGH

    oh lol, "someone" == you :) so, definitely that's the best case, I will need to be patient... I also noticed one other difference I missed before which is the gazelle has the trekking hub and the vado has the heavy duty... which is interested since the enviolo docs say only the latter is...

    Gazelle Ultimate C380+ vs Specialized Turbo Vado 5.0 IGH

    Was not aware of the Serial 1, it is almost identical to the Specialized (FWIW they do say "Brose Allround LCD color display" on their web site although nothing about the battery)... but the closest dealer is ~50 miles from me. I really want to buy from somewhere local I can ride to for...

    Gazelle Ultimate C380+ vs Specialized Turbo Vado 5.0 IGH

    ah cool, thanks - I didn't consider the possibility of the 530 receiving data from the bike, that's interesting. ideally i'd be able to ditch the garmin - at least on the ebike I mostly use it to record data about passing cars (My Bike Radar), and occasionally for navigation... but sounds like...

    Gazelle Ultimate C380+ vs Specialized Turbo Vado 5.0 IGH

    Minor thing, but I do like how the specialized has separate pannier rails on the rear rack so you can more easily use both panniers and the top of the rack. Any other bigger differences people are aware of? I know the Vado is 650b vs 700c on the Gazelle but that doesn't matter much to me.

    Gazelle Ultimate C380+ vs Specialized Turbo Vado 5.0 IGH

    I'm debating between these two bikes - my LBS has the Gazelle in stock and said Specialized hasn't given them any dates for the Vado - plus it's an extra $750 on top of the unknown wait time. They look really similar, anyone else looking at these and have any thoughts? same enviolo hub, which...

    iZip e3 Dash (2018) / Tranzx M16 DIY repair

    Hey all, my e3 Dash mysteriously stopped boosting last week, and Saturday I tried to diagnose/repair it (successfully for now). I did some tweeting about the disassembly if you want to follow along but the important part is probably what's in the picture - that transfers power from the motor to...
