January 25, 20179 yr https://www.adrenalinatv.co.uk/shop/maintenance/bosch-xduro-500-mile-service/ 125 quid to plug in your bike and do feck all that looks like to me total rip off even ebike shop is cheaper than that lol
January 25, 20179 yr I see that Adrenaline state that if you don't have your Bosch bike serviced every 500 miles then your warranty is invalid. Is this official Bosch policy.
January 25, 20179 yr No it's not Bosch's policy. After speaking with e-bike shop and a more local e-bike retailer in Kent, they both said there is nothing to service on the electric motor. I've have my bike serviced twice a year with all mechanical components stripped, check and replaced if necessary. The nearest I get to the motor is a good clean, lube crank area and occasionally check there's no play in bottom bracket / crank bearings. I would say that my bike is well cared for, but I do go out all through winter in mud and grit, but ensure I clean and lube afterwards. The motor either works or not.
January 25, 20179 yr Author dealers cant service the motor as it will void the warranty thus 125 quid to plug it in and have a report is a total rip off. id not buy any bike from them if thats how there doing things. warranty is 2 years service or not and as for dongles id not even go there lol

When I first read the , OP here, I was naturally alarmed and I started to look at any documentation I had got with my new Raleigh Motus, I see a 5 year frame guarantee but cannot see any reference to the Bosch Thanks

I still cannot see where it is published by Bosch or in my case by Raleigh
January 26, 20179 yr Author check the manual for the motor as it should be in there Raleigh is haibike
January 26, 20179 yr check the manual for the motor as it should be in there Raleigh is haibike I have a manual from Bosch ref 0276 001 SA I (14.8.13) which in multiple languages provides operational instructions for motor intuvia display and battery and makes a number of references to warranty but does not give any specifics such as your post has given.

January 26, 20179 yr I I did that the day of purchasing... ...... Sorry for being so persistent but I have not yet seen a Raliegh or Bosch published document or website entry stating the information you have quoted. With age comes suspicion and I have enough of both.
January 26, 20179 yr Author id not worry about it as you will have 12 months on parts 2 years on electric/motor and 5 years on the frame as all other uk dealers offer the same. where did you buy the bike from ? it did state that on the bosch web site but since it has changed now states what i posted above.

I purchased it new from a main dealer in Lisburn near Belfast. Mr John Hanna. I have no reason to believe that he is other than an excellent shopowner and decent person.. The text I have in the Raleigh handbook is more or less the same as in your winora handbook but note that neither refer to the motor assembly.

Thanks I will be visiting them shortly for my first complementary service and will discuss it with him then . Thank you for your patience. Incidentally Lisburn is still in the UK.
January 26, 20179 yr Author if you take the manual with you and point out the other dealers warranty then they should honer it as they cant fix the motors anyway as all have to go back to bosch for replacement. my bike is 2014 bosch motor and never had a problem even with a dongle fitted.
January 29, 20179 yr I wondered at first if it was a misunderstanding.. I was offered a 500 mile service with my bosch bike but it was more of a check, cable adjust and tighten with an update thrown in.. all free. I think all bike dealers offer something similar.
