Ye absolutely, Good luck with that Eddie, wishing you well ;)

So, please forgive me, but that was not easy to follow, but if I've understood you properly. It should be possible to install previous software versions if: You can find a Bosch dealer, who has saved a copy of the update, preceding the E-mtb update, direct to a folder on his drive. Sounds...

Hey Steve a voice of reason should always be listened too :D And I couldn't agree more, polite and friendly debate would be my first choice every time. Your being clear, did not come out too well there but I think I get the jist...... not an upgrade just an update, is what you were eluding...

Eddie, Firstly glad you moderated your tone from your first draft. Secondly "I fail" to see what my post had got to do with you personally! I really could not care less if you and whoever else wish to lock yourselves into the past and preclude yourselves from this and therefore all future...

You are most welcome, assuming you want the Emtb upgrade then your supplying dealer should be able to make sure it's installed before delivery. My mate has a Cube very nice bike.

Yes Chris it certainly should come pre installed. Unless its an old model of course. All CX production from July this year onwards will leave the factory with this upgraded software. :)

From people who really know what they are talking about :D

For those wishing to remove the update, bad news "Update Not Revertible" Please note that the update is not revertible. Sport Mode will permanently be replaced by eMTB Mode on all CX Drive bikes that are updated with new software and standard on all newly manufactured CX Drive bikes. What...

Ye Absolutely :)

I prefer to be in full control of the power settings, battery consumption, and not have control taken away from me in respect of sport mode. Effectively you still have full control. Eco, Tour, and Turbo are exactly the same the new Emtb mode simply has a wider range of support than the old...

Not sure why you would want to remove it, but I am pretty certain, that once installed there is no way back. At least that is what the dealer told me before I had the update installed.

Hey Trevor, I was completely unaware of the new Active Line drive unit for 2018. Thanks for the heads up. If this tech does find its way to a new CX drive unit for 2019 then that would indeed offer major improvements and a possible reason for me to stay with Bosch. I really like the current...

A lot of the new 2018 models do look very tempting, love the battery integration and the direction that frame geometry is moving, Shimano E8000 motor looks very neat and tidy, but TBH I am still very happy with what I have now and until someone produce's a real game changer, like a higher...

Tubeless every time, for me. Must have had at least a dozen punctures that have resealed themselves and that is only the ones I am aware of as they often seal up very quickly. But best of all, the bike really does accelerate a lot faster without tubes and has amazing grip, from being able to...

You will have done absolutely no damage what so ever :) Lithium Ion batteries do not suffer from the dreaded Memory Effect that plagued the old Ni Cd and Nimh batteries, that required you to fully charge and fully drain before each recharge cycle. Thankfully Lithium Ion batteries are much...
