    Bosch Flow / Strava will not Sync

    I turned my Kiox300 off when I got to a cafe - it deleted my entire 19mile ride and drew a straight line from my house to my coffee....! Still carried on logging until I got home, but the first half on the ride looked like I had flown in a plane.

    I totally agree - £120 a night is just crippling. It stops me doing a lot of things these days. I calculated that £120 in 2024 is in fact £95 in 2019 - that's how much everything has risen - except for our wages of course!

    Bosch Flow / Strava will not Sync

    As someone who rides tracks / lanes / roads on their eMTB, I often stop and switch of when I grab a coffee. The fact the app is still recording is also useful, but I think there should be an option for those who want a simple On / Record, Off / Record Off.

    Bosch Flow App - News & Updates

    On Sunday I rode 35miles, taking a break half way through. I checked the ride was recording when I left home. When I got half way, I was at a cafe so I removed the controller from the handlebars. The app was now paused but only showed a distance of 125ft, instead of 17miles! I put the...

    62.74 miles on a Single Battery

    For me, off road riding was never the point of my bike purchase. I live near Dartmoor UK so I’m gearing myself up for some bigger rides. Yesterday I managed a 61.74 miles on my 2023 Cube Stereo 160 Actionteam. It’s the 750w / CX configuration. It was a road / trail ride as I wanted to see how...

    Bosch Flow App - News & Updates

    I had the same issue on a ride yesterday. I cleared it and carried on. The ride recorded and uploaded to Strava / Komoot without an issue.

    Bosch Flow App - News & Updates

    I have a Cube 2023 Actionteam - I have the following modes available. Its a CX Smart System. I was having a lot of issues with pairing the app to Strava, but this latest update seems to fix all the connectivity issues with that, so I am giving that bit a thumbs up. As I mainly ride trails /...

    Bosch Flow App - News & Updates

    I had TURBO / EMTB / AUTO / ECO initialised and there was only 3 miles difference between its predicted distances left for AUTO and ECO. I was using AUTO for considerable uphill stretches on steep rural roads / tracks and it made hardly any difference to the battery consumption (I was...

    Bosch Flow App - News & Updates

    We have the same bike I think - I have the 2023 Actionteam which is blue with orange forks. You can only run four modes at any time. You can go into the Flow app, see all eight and change the ones you want to make available. It will tell you that you can only choose four.

    Bosch Flow App - News & Updates

    Appreciated report. I can imagine AUTO pushing things too hard on slippery ground. I really was surprised at the pickup when pushing up some steep hills this afternoon, it made it incredibly easy. Most of my riding is rural / lanes / tracks and AUTO is really idea for that.

    Bosch Flow App - News & Updates

    I don't really ride off road, I mainly do tracks / trails / lanes unlike most of you on here, but I really appreciate that information.

    Bosch Flow App - News & Updates

    I have the 2023 Cube Stereo 160 Actionteam, and the update works on this bike. I have Auto and I have to say after riding it today on a lane / track ride with steep climbs, I don’t think I need Turbo anymore. It’s a superb mode for varied terrain. With the Auto mode being more power efficient...

    Bosch Flow / Strava will not Sync

    My Flow app completely lost sync with the bike over the weekend. I went on a ride on Friday and it recorded nothing. I tried everything to get it to sync (reboot phone, delete and reconnect bluetooth), but in the end I deleted Flow and reinstalled it. I went for a ride yesterday and I also used...

    Bosch performance line cx - feels like it’s holding me back.

    I tweaked ECO mode by pushing the power up to +3 in the Flow app and that sorted it.

    Cube Actionteam 160 special build

    I’m definitely going to look at the phone adapter. I also dug out an Ergon MTB seat and changed it over for the block of wood that came with the bike. Made a huge difference today, but still not convinced it’s the most comfortable out there, so that’s for the tip.

    Cube Actionteam 160 special build

    I just bought exactly the same bike - I got some orange coloured pedals and thought that was considered pimping it up a little...! Amazing components - your bike looks really good. ***Would you mind letting me know about why you changed any key components? I am not asking for everything (!)...

    Bosch Flow / Strava will not Sync

    Well all was syncing well, then I went for a blast this afternoon and its all gone south. The Flow app didn't pickup the start of my ride. I stopped for a coffee, switched off the bike for 15mins. Turned it on again. It then recorded the last half of the ride. When I got back, switched off the...

    4 days Old - 9 inches of Scratches

    I will seriously look into protecting certain parts of the frame. Luckily the Cube has a large plastic battery downtube coverand also plastic on a lot of other back parts of the frame, that I can't name as I am not that knowledgeable!

    South Devon / Dartmoor - Anyone Interested?

    I am new to eMTB but I would like to ride with anyone interested in any areas of South Devon or Dartmoor in particular? I am in Newton Abbot so easy access to both. Would love to learn more about riding on the moors.
