    Bosch CX Gen5 Motor Clutch clunk/engagement issue AFTER a descent?

    The motor clutch works on a mechanical principle; essentially, it is a one-way freewheel bearing. So there isn’t really much that can go wrong with it. I’m not an electrician, but I was told that oxidation of the connector was causing micro power or communication dropouts during vibrations, and...

    Bosch CX Gen5 Motor Clutch clunk/engagement issue AFTER a descent?

    Bosch CX Gen5 Motor Clutch clunk/engagement issue AFTER a descent?

    I’m having the same issue on my SC Vala. Currently at 2,100 km. The problem occurs after a hard landing or riding through very rough terrain. The first pedal stroke afterwards provides no assistance and is accompanied by a loud noise and a kickback into the pedals. Twice now, I’ve gotten error...
