Bosch App for Rail 7?

[idave]

Hi there - just doing a bit of research for a new ebike. Is there an App (iPhone) for the Bosch motor in the Rail 7? If so is there any customisation that you can do?

Thanks

No , there are no apps for bosch motor on Rail.

Ok thanks.

I would say you are wrong, there is a bosch app for your phone, that gives you different things to view, heart rate etc. But nothing in the app for adjusting power settings.

Only with the Kiox display not the Purion one on the Rail 7

I think Trek (and others) are lacking in this area - their offer is confusing with overlapping products, forced display upgrades and no motor tweaking for a start.
Security is an area nearly all manufacturers could improve on with electronic and mechanical immobilisers.

You correct fella, I had forgotten that you cant use it with the purion. One of the reasons I have the kiox retrofitted to mine

Exactly! It would be so easy to incorporate an immobiliser of some kind. And even though I think the Bosch is the best motor atm, the lack of a decent app with motor tweaking is disappointing

I thought I’d read somewhere there is a security feature with the later Kiox displays and once set and the screen was removed the bike is just a very heavy clockwork bike. I’m sure someone will enlighten us all or tell me I’ve dreamt it.

Kiox lock function

Hi everyone, I've had a new Stereo Hybrid 140 TM for 4wks now and am absolutely loving it so far. Has anybody activated the new lock function with the Kiox display? Would like to know how secure the magnetic holder is for the display, as wouldn't want it bouncing out on a downhill section of...

Yes, but not everyone can afford either the bikes that have kiox, or the relatively expensive upgrade. Would be nice to see some kind of immobiliser technology on the cheaper models too.
