If you have ever wondered, can I fit a newer Performance Line CX motor into an older Performance Line equipped bike? Especially without up-grading, re-programming, changing wiring or controls! Well, I thought I would try it, and... yes it is possible! Its also easy! If you want to fit your plastic covers on again, you would just need to remove the plastic CX badge on the motor cover.
My Nyon controller had no problem talking to the motor and vice versa.

This is what I would like Bosch make for the future. Make new generation motors that fit and replace for example performance CX without changing the bike ! If Bosch do this, Bosch will continue to be the leader IMO

Maybe we could make adaptor brackets? But the motor covers would not fit and these days they are different for every bike! I guess it's called progress.
