That's interesting? What made you dislike the Superdelite - compared to the Homage?If I didn't already own one, I'd buy that. It's such an amazing bike. Much better than the SuperDelite (which I've ridden for a few weeks and did not like... so impractical when compared to the Homage, and has "please steal me" written all over it)
How do you get to the weather screen? Is is displayed on the Nyon itself or on a phone running eBike connect?What type of seat is on your Homage?
Yes, I agree, an inbuilt ambient temperature display would be useful.
The lack of it is partially compensated for by the weather screen.
To be able to know what the immediate ambient temperature is, I attached a cheap ($13) digital display temperature probe to the handlebar. It works well but doesn't have back lighting for night-time viewing.

Did you know Richard that Garmin Edge and Wahoo ELEMNT bike GPS computers had the thermometer in them? Just saying.this is a nice bike thermometer that takes up little handlebar space

What is your point? No device is 100% complete and every device lacks something found on others. The device makers play leap frog with product features, software and development. None of the devices you mentioned offers complete information integration with an ebike drive system.Did you know Richard that Garmin Edge and Wahoo ELEMNT bike GPS computers had the thermometer in them?

(You once said you trusted integrated hardware solution. Here's one of them!)
The screen is selected via one of the screens/tiles setup options on the Nyon. I'm not near the unit at the moment so I currently can't detail the actual selection procedure.How do you get to the weather screen? Is is displayed on the Nyon itself or on a phone running eBike connect?
True for Garmin and Wahoo as long as the brands are Giant or Specialized Any newer e-bike from these brands supports the full LEV ANT+ protocol. Just to let you know. Additionally, Garmin and Wahoo provide GPS navigation to the level the Nyon is unable to match. (You do not need to buy a temperature sensor, either).Note: With Nyon you get cadence without having to buy and add another sensor, not true for Garmin Wahoo
Following an imported GPX works fine in the Nyon navigation function. That's my preferred use regardless of the current Nyon navigation issues. If I remember correctly, you import GPX files created in RideWithGPS into your Wahoo?True for Garmin and Wahoo as long as the brands are Giant or Specialized Any newer e-bike from these brands supports the full LEV ANT+ protocol.

Karoo 2 is not LEV ANT+ compatible.
I often use the RWGPS with my Wahoo, true. The process is very easy because it is like "sharing" a route (you do not think in the GPX terms there); same for Garmin. However, I use the native feature of Wahoo called "Take me to..." as often. You just enter a street address or point at a map location in the ELEMNT Companion App, and the new route is being transferred to the device. No smartphone with you or no mobile internet coverage? Just use the "Pan & Scroll" feature on the device to get to your destination point. (I can hear touchscreen Garmins are even better in this respect).If I remember correctly, you import GPX files created in RideWithGPS into your Wahoo?
Not for Wahoo. That is, you cannot plan your "Take me to..." route on a PC, for instance.Are there online versions of the Wahoo and Garmin bicycle route planning systems?

There is yet another remark. Both RWGPS and Wahoo are cycling related. Therefore, these will select bike-friendly routes, using bike paths whenever available. But you know the problem related to HS e-bikes well, Peter (my Vado is a 45 km/h e-bike). Technically speaking, you cannot ride a HS e-bike on bike paths in Europe (Denmark is the only exception). Therefore, whatever route planning system you have chosen, you won't be allowed on a road if an alternative bike friendly path exists. That causes some trouble for me as I know I am allowed to ride with the traffic but the app or the device are not aware of that...

The segment marked blue is where HS e-bikes are allowed to travel. Bike route planners specifically disallow you riding there.
Wahoo does not indicate the source of their maps. Or, I could not locate that information.Interestingly it seems that most systems I've come across or use are based on OpenStreetMaps which have very detailed and comprehensive cycle related data sets. This, as far as I know, includes Garmin. Is this also the case with Wahoo?
Okay. Thanks.Wahoo does not indicate the source of their maps. Or, I could not locate that information.
Bosch use OSM.Wahoo does not indicate the source of their maps. Or, I could not locate that information.
Updated?Bosch use OSM.

As far as I know the latest Nyon map update was last October. Not good enough in these times of rapidly expanding cycle path infrastructure.Updated?
JV: purchased a new Homage in July and I am experiencing a Suntour rear shock that won’t maintain pressure. Tried a new valve but no luck. Before I start paying for labor to attempt to fix the Suntour, are there other rear shocks that would be an upgrade that would fit and not throw off the carbon belt set up? Any specific suggestions would be appreciated.They changed this in 2021 - Our Homages have been showing up with SR Suntour shocks (whooo!)
Have not seen a Marzocchi yet, but yes, I can verify that the switch is due to a lack of inventory on Suntour's part. Most of there supply seems to be out of stock in general.
