I have used two 2022 model eBikes that have Dapu Motors and their current standard Display, both bikes built in late 2021.
{currently traveling and do not have display number or Dapu software version data}
Both bikes have similar issues/problems and I'm interested if others are also having issues.
Bike One
Evelo Dash with 350W Dapu motor, motor controller, Dapu display.
Issue - - - reported MPH is not reliable.
Frequently it reported my speed at 50 MPH when I was in a lowww gear, going up a hill, at walking pace.
I did not have this bike long enough to document issue 2 reported on bike two
Bike Two
Evelo Aurora Limited with 750W Dapu motor, motor controller, same Dapu display as Dash.
Issue 1 - - - same as Dash. Reported MPH is not reliable. At first it was randomly reporting zero or 50 MPH. Now at 125+ miles it is reporting zero or 50 MPH nearly all the time; actual real-world MPH is randomly displayed.
Issue 2 - - - Trip Miles is way off.
On one trip Google Maps** says it was 21 miles. The Display read 31 miles.
On a second trip Maps says it was again 21 miles, Display read 16 miles.
The total ODO mileage matches the trip miles . . . ODO increased by 16 not 21
While some error between Google and the bike should be expected - - - this large and wide range is not right IMHO.
So any other folks seeing these types of issues ?
I'm thinking/hoping a software update could resolve these issues - - but have no idea how difficult that might be to obtain/install - - -
P.S.
I owned an older model year Aurora Limited with a different Dapu Display
That bike was also compared to Google Maps and the delta was very minor PLUS it never report my MPH at 50
** I took the time to plot my route in fine detail with several waypoints so the Google miles should be very accurate to my actual travel path - - - the 'automatic' shortest route or whatever was not a factor - - -
