Hi DaveyWavey, I've been using mine on-road and I find I can cruise at 24-25mph with very little effort on my part. I'd like to get to 30mph but I think my legs would give out before I got there, on the level straight anway. I took it off-road too but I find it's a bit too fast as I spend all my time looking out for tree roots!
I ordered the Badass dongle from the German ebay sight which arrived on Saturday morning. It is really easy to fit and just clips around the existing speed sensor. It took me a while to realise the extra two screws that came with it were to replace the existing one fitted to the bike which has a flat head screw. This is so you can remove the dongle and put it back to factory state really quickly.
I am amazed at the increase in performance, I can easily get 24-25 mph on the flat with little effort. So I am well chuffed! Thanks for yhe advice everyone.
Thanks Gentlemen for the replies.
It is the first Bosch system that I own so fooling it by putting a magnet on the pedal seems like my first port of call.
I'm not looking to go crazy just to get to around 22mph would be good as my commute involves long stretches in open countryside. It gets a bit boring sat at 15mph all the time.
Thanks
Mark
Good morning everyone!
I would like to squeeze a few more mph out of my bosch bike (generation 1 classic line). I've read on the forum of the dongle that requires slight modification to the bike as well as one which doesn't.
Does anyone have any experience of both and could advise me which is better. Is the end result the same? What is the maximum speed you can achieve on the flat? Some sites seem to imply you can reach 30mph, is that realistic or is it more like 22-23mph?
Thanks for any replies.
Mark
