    Software update 2013 Bosch gen1 head unit

    Hi Tim, There are for your model, although they are not significant enough for you to need to return to the dealer for diagnostics update. (Slight tweaks, and walk assist upped a little) On a side note I have been playing around with an update for the later performance system, where I can add...

    Hydraulic brake lever not returning. Avid Code lever

    Hi, The washer and seals can expand from the DOT itself. Its likely these will need replacing at some point in the future. They are pennies though. So no issue. DOT 3 will work. Although you should replace with the correct fluid when you redo the seals. The boiling point differs between...

    Just in... New Raleigh Electric Bikes with Shimano STEPS Mid Drive System

    Looks good, I rode the STEPS in Germany a few weeks back and it was a clean simple to use system. Pretty much does what it says on the tin. Feels very similar to the Panasonic drive. I was most impressed with the integrated electronic shifting, it felt like a good all in one system and worked...

    Any Interesting News from Eurobike 2014

    Hi Flecc, Sorry for my late reply, only just spotted this mid post. Its likely just to give more piece of mind for the customers. The later Bosch performance motor is completely sealed. Still I quite like the design, think it looks neat and very integrated.

    Bosch Intuvia charging and battery time

    Not tested exactly but we have spare units go for months without recharging. Depending on how much you use the bike I would suggest to top it up every six months or so for keeps safe. You will know if the internal cell is low as when you remove the Intuvia from the bike the LCD will fade out /...

    Bosch Intuvia charging and battery time

You can manually recharge the internal cell if the bike has not been used in a while by plugging it into a power source (PC, Laptop, TV etc) using a micro...
