    350w+ mountain bike, upto £5k

    Hi James, Almost certain you are the chap I was emailing yesterday. Totally agree with what Dave said above almost exactly as I said yesterday. Before you rule out a 250w and limit your buying options, why not come and have a go for yourself. That way you can see if it meets your...

    Wissy, When looking from above the yellow line inside the plastic should sit between the 2 yellow lines (ladder) on the cover.. Or in wissy talk - the yellow thingy that moves when you change gear thingy should sit in t middle of the yellow ladder thingy ;) But to me it looks a whole gear out...

    Bocsh service training centre

    If Bosch has more access rights than us dealers then no I cannot guarantee they cannot see it. The fact of the matter is that fitting the dongle technically will invalidate your warranty. This is what both me and Bosch have expressed. Sold as 'off road use' and does state in the instructions...

    Bocsh service training centre

    Hi there, Just to sum up a few things.. The Bosch diagnostics kit is mainly used in the event of a problem. It can obviously store, show and clear error codes. (Makes a problem easy to fix for us dealers) Its also used to update the software, calibration changes etc etc. It can also be...

    Impulse & Panasonic Tuning Dongles!!

    I know, but I like to keep posts to the point.. He has a good heart and after all it does add a little humour to the site I suppose. My reply was written before my morning cuppa anyway, so was a little blunt ;) As for the Tonaro, nothing in the works as of yet, although you could donate yours...

    Impulse & Panasonic Tuning Dongles!!

    Yes this can be wired in fairly easily. Remember though that if it is done by a switch it becomes instantly illegal whenever it is on the road even when turned off. We have actually worked on the Bosch kits to wire into the lighting output allowing the user to turn the dongle on/off by use of...

    Impulse & Panasonic Tuning Dongles!!

    Hi Alex, Right back to useful tech talk now! ;) I understand on the Impulse systems you can change the wheel parameters to technically up the speed cut off. This has to be done with the factory update device each time. This can then allow the bike to reach speeds of around 25mph in doing...

    Impulse & Panasonic Tuning Dongles!!

    Another late night post from hech here. Makes me wonder if a little tipple has played a part! As with other posts you have made here; I feel the negativity from a mile away. I understand your stated views on the 'dongle' subject. But the simple answer is (without getting the thesaurus out...

    Impulse & Panasonic Tuning Dongles!!

    Yes totally agree. Hugh you are a great example and have helped others decide for a dongle having one yourself and expressing your views. I think you'd be surprised how many other users on here have a dongle fitted to their Bosch.. No names mentioned. With legalities it's one of those...

    Downhill not Uphill

    Hi Steve, Dave is right, your Specialized will have a through axle on the front, probably on the rear too! Why not check out Dave's crank drive conversion on his diamondback for ideas? Or Keep the Spesh and nab one of these ;) Regards Martin
