Hi, a quick update from me. I purchased the 8260 kit and fitted it today to my Gen 4 bike. The instal went very well. I have not yet had chance to do a lot of testing but I can confirm the the current gear number is showing on the ride screen of the flow app. Within the shimano app, I can get it...
I have been exchanging messages with the guy who did the video above. He has confirmed that the bike he fitted it to was a 2022 Gen 4 as @Joecrow has mentioned above. My bike is a 2022 Gen 4. I have also asked him if the wire is 2 or 4 wires and he has yet to answer. Also, there is a great...
So, I think I will still wait for a little bit more info before proceeding with the M8260. I have decided not to fit the M8250 as its just too much grief.
I have a theory here, so, let me know what you think of this given that Bosch have told me its not compatible with my Gen 4.
I have no...
Guys, I am trying to change the cassette on my bike. I have removed the cassette leaving just the free hub on the hub with the wheel.
I simply cannot get the free hub off the hub. The problem I have is that the locknut that the free hub is held on by will not come off. There are two little...
Op, the stand you have purchased, how stable is the bike when on it please as there does not appear to be anything stopping it fall over? Have I hot it wrong? Thanks
My LBS did a few "Config Change Requests" for me and from what they were saying it was quite simple to do. That's how I managed to get the PowerMore 250 to work on my bike.
Regarding those that are managing to get the Di2 working on their ebikes, I can only assume they have Gen 5 motors.
I...
Thanks. There is another thing that is specific to the Gen 5, ie the power increase. It won't work on the Gen 4, even though it's part of the smart system? Can you explain what you mean by "feature toggle" please @crisillo ?
I agree. I have been getting some vague answers from them. I have the HPP already enabled as I am using it to feed another accessory, which would require a rethink if I did proceed with the M8260 (which I am not going to do)
Please bare in mind that the reply from Bosch was specific to the Ten 4 motor.
Bosch say its not compatible.
A specialist YouTuber has said its not compatible.
Nobody has managed to fit it yet.
That's enough for me to back away from the M8260 kit for my bike. However, what I am now planning to...
So, this is the reply I got from Bosch. I don't think it helps us at all. What do you guys make of the reply?
Very important - even though the eShift may be compatible, it is not meant to be retrofitted to the Bosch system. This is because you would require completely different software from...
