    Problems derestricting Bosch Smart Motor

    https://www.e-bikeshop.co.uk/products/bosch-ebike-tuning-dongle?variant=42601797255406 as soon as one that works with no errors then imo he will sell them but the only other option atm is the bad ass dongle but even there limited to 25mph these days.

    Problems derestricting Bosch Smart Motor

    you could try a bad ass dongle with the speed sensor adaptor but with these motors and gps tracking means all of them could get a 504 error and put in to limp mode. sell it and get a bafang hd and a 20 quid programming cable :p

    Problems derestricting Bosch Smart Motor

    ...Decided to buy another bike Cube all action, very expensive for what it is with similar performance to older bike. I've tried speedboat 1.0b dongle which worked for about 200 miles then error. I've tried Peartune which error. So I'm now riding bike stock until Volspeed bring out a dongle...

    Help! Can I ride e-bikes in heavy rain?

    ...I suspect I might be out in the rain. Cable connections - the Speedo connector has a two plugs: one for the speedo (which is used for the OSF/dongle side of life) and one for lighting control (which I don't use), thus I've 'blobbed' silicon sealant over the exposed end (there was a post on...

    Bosch 503 Error

    Hoping I've managed to fix this, if only temporarily? Removed the Badass dongle, checked battery and it is still 100% power. Readjusted the magnet and (without dongle fitted) went for a ride, still got the error code. Removed the magnet, waved it past the sensor as fast as I could a few times so...

    Bosch 503 Error

    Haven't tried it without the dongle yet. I was riding home from work when the motor cut off and the error displayed. Had to walk home pushing the bike, as without the motor I couldn't get up the steep hill home. I'll have a play with it later in the week when I have time to experiment, and...

    bosch 400w end of life report

    ...and not get bricked fingers crossed. :p bosch do have a capacity tester but i dont think they have one and will take a full charge cycle out of the batt but not sure how many amps it draws. tbh i am amazed it lasted as long as it did let alone still works and charges with a dongle its hole...

    bosch 400w end of life report

    ...on his warranty so it is different to bosch warranty but there still the same cells and no way that will do a 1000 charge cycles as he uses a dongle as well but has 2 batts. the old motor did still work but the transfer gear needed replacing and a new set of bearings and it was as good as...

    Which ebike insurance too choose

    say you bought a haibike and then used a dongle on it like i do the insurance would be void same as sticking 2 turbo charges to a car and not telling the insurance company.

    eBike for 14yr Old Kid

    OK, thanks for the info. I want to keep this looking legal and don't want him to have the hassle of worrying about gearing so more I think about this I think a 250W rear hub on donor MTB with a controller that can handle 48V and the current draw may be the way to go? I don't want to spend the...

    eBike for 14yr Old Kid

    ...over 30mph with a 500w batt and a bosch cx motor and i get around 25 miles in range tho at times there is 400w coming from my legs but i use a dongle to remove the speed limit. so if you you use lower power modes you wont go as fast but will get more miles rather than hammering it. a 1000w...

    TSDZ2 OSF - Road legal in UK

    well you are wrong as the fact that you can change the settings means it is not road legal none of them are. i dont have this choice with a bosch motor unless i use a dongle and that's the point of law that any ebike diy or not must comply with the law.

    TSDZ2 OSF - Road legal in UK

    Derestriction, ‘off-road’ switches or modes and dongles The Department of Transport say that electric bikes fitted with off-road switches or modes, that enable a bike’s motor to continue assisting to speeds beyond 15.5mph, do not comply with UK EAPC law. The term ‘off-road’ suggests that these...

    TSDZ2 OSF - Road legal in UK

    ...the handlebar display to alter the settings, then one might have a problem, but just having the ability to change settings via software/laptop/dongle etc surely doesn't in itself make the bike illegal? I mean, on my 250w 36v TSDZ2, I could if I wished fit a larger voltage battery and alter...

    Ebikemotion 35+ LCD display on Orbea Vibe

    ...Yours is a more recent bike with both iWoc and the Ant in-built, so this dongle isn't needed of course, but I suggest asking Mahle/Orbea if both iWoc and display can operate at the same time, before spending. Alternatively, you may already have a smartphone with multi-window capabilities so...
