- Demonstrating the Bosch Kiox and eBikeConnect app, how to connect a heart rate monitor, save a ride, upload it to the Bosch ebike-connect website and from there how to transfer the ride to Strava.
Hi, great video bye the way. I noticed you mentioned you'd like to change the screen view on your favourite screen. This is easy to do. Find the "settings" screen then choose, screens. This gives you a list of screens. Select the screen you'd like to modify and you can see you can add or remove the number of tiles as well as choose what is on each tile. I'm sure once you've found that, you'll be able to figure out how to configure it? Hope that's helpful. 👍
what a desire to pedal you made me after this beautiful description :))
Great video, thanks ! While I agree that the Kiox is safer at this place then your phone, bear in mind that replacing the Kiox is way more cheaper than your phone...
Thanks for making the video in English :)
No problem! :-)
Hi great video, what phone mount is that please?
Great informative video . Can I ask what iPhone bracket you used to attach to bike ?
Hi, thanks. I use the Topeak RideCase.
Cheers!
Nice explanation, but we can't see the Kiox. Question; where did you order the cable and is it the micro USB type C? to Lightning
thats a beautifull bike mate
Hi loving your videos, keep up the good work 👍 which charger do you get with the bike
gavin george hi, the bike comes with the Bosch 36V - 4A charger.
Can you tell me brand of connector for iPhone? Thanks
Hi Martyn, it's the Topeak RideCase. I have several and it works great. I highly recommend it.
Cheers!
Also, my ebikeConnect does not record my activities. Do you need use map and set destination in order to record your activities? I registered and also my phone synchronized whit Kiox.. Already did 400km in a week, but shows Overall: 0km :/ I just using Strava and Komoot. (Maybe your know, if I need Premium komoot account in order to syn..)
Thanks
wolkuz you don’t need to set a destination nor to use third party apps.
Keep the eBikeConnect app always working in the background. Make sure Bluetooth is always on. Check the page where it says the bike is connected to the bike via Bluetooth.
If all of that works then eBikeConnect should record automatically.
Hello, where did You buy the cable? Micro usb "A" ?
I bought it a ebiketuning (dot) com. It's a german online shop.
The cable is a Micro USB B to Lightning cable from iprotect.
I bought a couple of them. The first got a bit loose because of the way I manipulated it. It was nice to have the second one on hand.
Cheers!
@@ruirodtube Thank You. Neither did I also find Micro usb "A" , so I ordered "B" too.
Hi, your videos are brilliant. I wanted to ask, the cable to connect the kiox to your smartphone... Is it a Micro B (Kiox connector) to Micro C (for Samsung) or Lightning (Apple). I assume you have a Samsung phone as your other comment linked to a cable for Micro C?
Or you have an adapter for C to Lighnting? You said in the video you have an iphone...
Hi Anis, thanks!
I use an iPhone.
I ordered a Micro-USB to Lightning cable from ebiketuningshop and it works great. I looked for it again today and it seems unavailable from that website unfortunately.
I had previously used an adaptor cable Micro-USB to normal USB to which I attached the iPhone USB to Lightning cable. It also worked great but it was long and bulky.
I use a Micro-USB to Lightning cable.
I used for a while an Micro-USB to USB adaptor to which I connected the USB to Lightning standard cable supplied with the iPhone.
I'm sure all connector combinations are available online these days.
Great info, what’s the iPhone mount you’re using?
It’s a Topeak with the iPhone 8 case. I love it.
You can see it better on the extra equipment video I also posted.
Cheers
Are you using the Apple Watch for heart rate? Mine connects but send incorrect data, not a valid rate.
Hi Rich, I don't use the Apple Watch. I don't trust the accuracy of a wrist electronic. IMO it's not precise enough for sports.
I use a hr monitor from Bontranger.
Doesn't work with smart watches
Hi, have you gotten a 504 error, after changing the wheel size diameter? ive heard this can put the bike into limp mode for 15km of riding then resets to normal.
Hi Tony, I never had that problem and I’ve changed wheel diameter on three bikes already; one with Gen 3 motor and two with the Gen 4 motor.
Hello, is-it possible to connect Apple Watch to Kiox ? I don't see any option to connect any cardio frequency to Kiox ? Thanks.
Hi, I don't know about the Apple watch but in the settings you find the menus to connect a cardio frequence meter. Cheers!
Having problems connecting my heart rate monitor, any ideas how to do it?
cambike I recorded a tutorial specifically to answer your question th-cam.com/video/qIUDQgIjRwI/w-d-xo.html
Enjoy!
Hiya mate I'm very interested in putting a kiox on my haibike ,could you tell me if I can change from km to miles ? Thanks very much
Yes you can!
Cheers!
Is it possible to export workout data in Garmin Connect?
Andrea Biancucci I’m not sure but there seems to be no direct interface option available.
The export options available in the EbikeConnect website are:
1. Strava
2. GPX
3. CSV
4. TCX
5. Facebook (😂)
Maybe if you export the workout to GPX you could then import it to Garmin Connect?
@@ruirodtube hopefully they will update the platform.....
Hello !! I have the same HPC 140 SL irridium green :) What do you use to have your phone on handlebar? Are you happy with it, not afraid it fails with rocks and vibrations?
elno5 it’s a great e-bike. I use the TOPEAK Ridecase Mount and Ridecase for iPhone 8.
I’m very happy with it.
It bolts onto the headset and replaces the headset cap and bolt. The metal is of very good quality. The ridecase is held very tightly and secure. It never slipped out.
I can place the phone in portrait mode or turn it left or right onto the landscape position. The pivot point in located on the middle.
You can also chose the tilt by unscrewing the headset bolt and then screwing it back on but once you found the tilt I recommend not messing too much with the headset bolts otherwise it might start causing annoying cracking noises while riding.
I own several mounts which I bought throughout the years, (one for each of my bikes and even for my home trainer) and as I changed iPhones (from 4 to 5 to 8) I just bought the new case which remains compatible with the old mounts.
Cheers!
I'm only part way through this video yet and it looks very good. However, if you want us to see the screens please ensure the camera is at a better angle; currently it is too angled and too far away for me to view the screen. Thankyou for this video. Regards, Gary.
Hi Gary, it's amateur stuff. I strap a GoPro to my chest and sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't :-)
@@ruirodtube thanks anyway. I'm trying gopro filming myself. It's not easy. One question...... I had my 1st ride today and tried loading it from the Kiox, through Ebike Connect to Strava. But no success. Is it doable or do I need to load another program?
Gary O'Neill you need to login to the Bosch Ebikeconnect website, select activities tab at the top, select the activity you want to upload to Strava and from the dropdown menu of the activity select “Export to Strava”.
But first make sure you’ve entered (in your Bosch ebikeconnect profile) the username and password you use to access Strava.
Let me know if it worked.
Cheers!
@@ruirodtube Thankyou. I've done those things but the only option highlight is Facebook; Strava remains "faded". I'll keep at it. There has to be something I missed. Cheers, Gary.
@@ruirodtube no joy. Strava can see Kiox and Kiox can see Strava but they won't connect. I have another friend here with same issue.
Can you please make a video on the initial set up of the app and the bike? The bike shop should have told me - they told me nothing.
Hi Kathleen, I could indeed do that. I’ll need some time but once I’m done I’ll post the link to the video here.
Cheers!
Hi
I have the ap but for some reason it shows everything in kph even though my Kiox is showing mph. Any ideas how I change kph to mph?
Its in the settings under imperial
@@phantombigballs8165 I’m in settings but can’t see imperial.
@@billywiz1307 it's in there I'm on MpH now
Hello I really like your video,
I see that you connect Kiox to the iPhone you could give me the pages where you bought the cable for the phone and also the phone holder.
Thank you very much.
Vincent
Hi Vicente, thanks.
I bought the cable at ebiketuning (dot) com. It's a german online shop.
The cable is a Micro USB B to Lightning cable from iprotect.
I bought a couple of them. The first got a bit loose because of the way I manipulated it. It was nice to have the second one on hand.
The phone holder is the TOPEAK RideCase. It's a great product that I've installed on all my bikes for the last 10 years and they are all still as new.
Cheers!
Link the cable you buy from. Its not simple micro USB right? type B...
wolkuz www.ebiketuning.com/shop/tools/ladekabel-micro-usb-b-micro-usb-c.html
@@ruirodtube Maybe wrong link? Was looking same cable that your have, with angle connectors :)
wolkuz I ordered that product and received the angled connectors. A case of the product not matching the picture.
Great video. What kind of phone mount do you have?
Hi Ethan, thanks.
I use the Topeak Ridecase. I have it on all my bikes and I love it.
@@ruirodtube Thanks so much. I'll check it out. I also like your cellphone charger setup, but am having a hard time finding it here in the US, but I'll keep looking. Keep riding!
This app has a 2.7 stars rating on play store, read the store reviews, they say it all...
I have the same bike ActionTeam version, it's amazing but they need to fix the app
Hi, indeed. Bosch has been improving the app but initially it was buggy, especially when saving the ride.
Are you enjoying your bike?
Cheers!
