    Bosch Smart motor 2022 - walk assist problems

    Mine was delivered with a useless walk mode, so I didn't have the option to not mess it up.

    Bosch Smart motor 2022 - walk assist problems

    Adjusting in the app would be the dream/sensible option. I’ll not hold my breath though!

    Bosch Smart motor 2022 - walk assist problems

    It's not so much that there is fundamental difference between the old and newer versions, it's that there is a glaring technical error seemingly caused by Trek's use of the proprietary speed sensor cable and/or magnet.

    Smart System Walk Mode - pants

    Hey all. Had my first real requirement to use walk mode over the weekend, and I have to say it's beyond useless. Seemingly on and off constantly, when it is moving it's super slow. Back home in the garage and in a work stand with a clamp on the button: I can see it's stop/start the whole time...
