I looked through all the information that the store provided on my new GDS and the information on the Bosch display was in a word "lacking". This video answered all my question and I even found out I have a "walk mode" absolutely never mentioned in the Tern manual.

Very good info Just got an Ebike with the Bosch Purion control head and I didn't know half these functions. THANK YOU!

Thanks. I was struggling to understand the controls but you explained it very well. Clear and concise!

A succinct explanation of something that's confused me for over two years. Thanks so much.

Thank you so much for such a clear explanation. I really did not want to go to the local bike shop right now, and this gave me all I needed to know for my new bike.

Thankyou for explaining this !

Spot on! Nice job!

Thanks for the video ;) Do you know if we can charge any external devices, eg. phones, using the micro USB connection on a side? Or is it just for service connection. I've seen people charging their phones from their displays on Brose ebike systems so was wondering if Bosch does it as well. Many thanks! ;)

Fab videos! Had my new e-bike a week. I noticed that the est distance remaining has changed, on full battery, from the first time I rode the bike. I guess the Purion is "clever" and makes the estimate based on my usage. I have also noticed that if I don't use the assist, the est remaining distance goes up. Is this the bike being clever, again, and showing me that it's always thinking?

Thank you- I was having trouble figuring out the walk mode! I have the Action Line Plus. I like the quiet operation, the ability to backpedal, and the sophisticated torque sensing. I want a subtle "wind at my back" feeling, and don't like motors that make themselves known by surging forward, or continuing to propel the bike for a second or more after I let up on the pedals.

Thanks for the video, can you changes from Miles to kilometers?

What, such an excellent video and noone answered the question? I've got the Bosch Performance Speed (gen. 2) and what I like most about it is that it's assisting up to 45 km/h from factory and it does it fairly well. It really made a difference for my 40 miles/day commute, I would not have taking on the task of commuting with a 25 km/h ebike (guess thats even lower than what you call "class 1" in the US).

It's down to the MM and set at the motor, I would argue that your bike will be more accurate due to this than your GPS which is always somewhat a drift :)

Brilliant.

I have the Tern HSD P9 Performance. The bike shop is located in the San Francisco Hills and the shop only carries the Performance model with 500 Wh motor. This bike handles the hills well and I have not used the Sport or Turbo mode on hills. We rode 20 miles for 3 days with hills and I used less than 1 bar on the trip. 99% of the time on this trip, I rode in Eco. This was my first trip.

Tom - the Bosch Purion is an ebike controller and it runs off the ebike battery. It does have a battery but that is only in emergency if you leave it sitting without a charged main e-bike battery for a long time.

Thank You Arrly! I love your teaching technique. I just bought a 2020 Cannondale Tesoro E bike. Still getting used to it. When I bought the bike I didn't have a rack so they had to take off the front wheel to fit into my car. Ever since I put it back on it makes a rubbing sound. The tire is stable but something is rubbing. The metal fender has been ruled out but no one can seem to help me. Any ideas?

@CargoBikeLifecom

4 жыл бұрын

My guess is the brakes are rubbing. Make sure the wheel is in straight, best way to do this is when the bike is standing on two wheels and straight up/down. Then open the quick release and make sure it is straight in. If it is and you still get that noise the brakes may be out of alignment OR the brake lever got squeezed when the wheel was out and now the pads need pushed back in.

Good video. Didn't know about the Walk function. ? Is there a way to disable the bike, other than locking it up, so if someone does cut the lock cable, the motor will not start up? Seems like it should be a no-brainer function to me.

can we replace it ourselves if it goes out-ie, just plug a new one in?

Your shop probably has the light turned on all the time, and not all bikes have the walk function enabled. Ask them next time you get it serviced.
