Ok that makes sense because all those values were correct. So something’s up with the motor then. Thanks!

Got a Druid CorE with M1, only ridden about ten times. Motor stopped providing assist. Everything seems to work. Screen shows all the values and modes. Able to cycle thru assist modes but no power. There is a gear indicator in the top right corner that used to show which gear the Transmission...

I was told that gen 5 CX will begin thermal protection as low as 35 C, and fully shut down at 60 C. Now I don’t know which part exactly has to hit 35 degrees but it definitely seems pretty low! In this context, increasing power and torque doesn’t seem to make a lot of sense. Most of us ride...

My thread title got renamed with the word “rumour” added to it. I guess I should’ve mentioned I got all this information from a Bosch representative in an official, formal setting. None of this is rumours. But I do, like many people on here, enjoy the rumours of new products more than the new...

All I was told that it’s meant to compete with the power and torque values of Avinox and Specialized. No actual numbers though.

Any chance the speed sensor itself (not the disc on the rotor) got damaged or moved somehow? Also, did you change wheel size? 27.5 to 29? And if so, is there a setting in Avinox for that? I know on other systems it can be changed but can also be left unchanged, the bike mostly performs the same...

Dumb question, but did you swap over the speed sensor disc on the rotor?

Some of you in the industry may have already learned this, but today I got some cool, new info: - power/torque firmware update coming for CX and CXR in May to get ‘em on par with Avinox and Specialized - fast charger is coming this year, 12amp. Current ones are either 4amp or 2amp - new...

I’ve recently received hints from OEMs who currently produce TQ bikes that a bigger motor is coming.

Thanks for the update. Hope third time’s the charm. In my riding group there are three guys with gen 5 CX, all got them about a year ago when it first came out. All three are extremely hard, advanced riders. Two of them had the issues you describe, and both at about 1100km had the motors...

There are two common reasons why 2021 to 2025 Grip2 36’s and 38’s knock. 1. Bushing play. Some forks developed bushing play pretty much right out of the box. It was such a common problem that Fox specced new bushings in 2025 around the same time as GripX and GripX2 dampers got released. The new...

Nice! I’ve been keeping an eye on this. Really curious about this bike. I’ve been a long time Intense fan, had a couple of their bikes back in the day. They’ve made some weird moves over the years though but now it looks like they’re on a good path! This, the M1, the new Spider are all looking...

Would be sick but it’s gonna be Bosch CX gen 5, which is also sick!

Are you accounting for the shock (and spring)?

Yes but that’s what Orbea has been doing with the Wild for the past three years: Bosch Gen 4 frame modified to fit Gen 5 but no room for the new 800Wh so still using 750Wh as an option. And now, less than a year later, a whole new Wild with Avinox is in the works. The Slash was completely...
