    Shimano's pitiful rate of innovation and updates...

    You don’t need to downgrade the firmware, just need the license. Only need to downgrade if you want to totally de-restrict.

    Anyone noticed increase in assistance/drop in range in Trail with 4.7/4.71 firmware??

    I updated my motor to the 4.71 firmware before the weekend. Had a session at a regular spot and noticed a tangible increase in the level of assistance in trail mode. Unfortunately it was accompanied by a similarly noticeable drop in range. Usually the bike is on the Explorer preset for that...

    Is trail mode similar to Bosch EMTB mode?

    If you whack it up to 300% it feels just like boost but without the overrun. It is worth playing with the assistance level in smaller increments though.

    Hey @vadII will the update work ok with the latest STEP 4.7.1 release or should we hang off updating?

    STUnlocker iOS App for Shimano motors is available

    If you are on the internet there is no such thing as privacy. All your information is for sale to the highest bidder, you are deluded if you think otherwise. Phones and assistants listen to you and your family constantly, reporting back to big brother, stashing those private thoughts and...

    STUnlocker iOS App for Shimano motors is available

    I’m not sure there is anything other than maybe an expensive watch that shouts one use, first world, needless trinket than an e-mountain bike? I guess in your haste to virtue signal you missed the ‘or even better ask someone with an android phone to do it for you’. So as the alternatives clearly...

    STUnlocker iOS App for Shimano motors is available

    You can buy an Android mini tablet for not very much money (a few under £60 at PC World) or even better get someone with an android phone to do it for you.

    Emax iOS app available

    @Pipo have a question, can I temporarily attach an e8000 display to an e7000 display equipped bike to modify the settings then swap back to the e7000 display and the adjustments remain in place?

    Flat battery

    Yes, yes & yes. My Jam2 runs down ok through all the bars as expected last bar red, then red flashing and drops to eco only. Since the inbuilt battery was replaced recently it works fine on the inbuilt battery but the TEC pack runs down ok to 3 bars then drops to one red for a bit then just...

    Any issues with shimano 8000 motors throwing cranks !

    The caps needing to be installed seems daft. Having said that the only times my cranks have worked their way off is when I have previously taken the cap out to use a crank stand and forgotten to put it back in. Cue crank dropping off yesterday ?

    Emax iOS app available

    EMax has totally variable settings for eco. Shimano has just released an update for the PC software so you can vary the eco settings, I believe three levels. There is a new firmware which accompanied the Shimano PC update which will disable the EMax app. That new firmware does not appear in...

    E-TUBE PC App update to be able to modify eco settings

    Thread title edited to reflect only a PC App update so far??

    E-TUBE PC App update to be able to modify eco settings

    The Instagram post says available from the e-tube website so it is probably only the PC software which is immediately available. I guess the App will have to go through the usual Apple approval process.

    E-TUBE PC App update to be able to modify eco settings

    I need to edit the title as yes it is mainly the app. There is a firmware update too. I may give it a go as I don’t need the other app for this bike.

    E-TUBE PC App update to be able to modify eco settings

    I haven’t yet as have been messing with the other app and I think this update kills it. Interested to know what other improvements there are.
