Nobody replied, but I thought I would leave a note just in case someobody is searching for the same answer. I contacted Bionx. They told me that I only needed a firmware upgrade. When my dealer replaced my motor, they never did a firmware upgrade (because he does not have the updater device)...

I have a 2010 Trek Valencia+ and just had the motor replaced under warranty. The new motor is showing some behavior that I did not notice with the old motor. First, which is quite nice, I notice that the regen is stronger than the old motor had. I had set the maximum number for regen in the...

Not a bad quality video ... what type of camera are you using. Is it mounted on your helmet or handle bars? It is nice that you can park your bike inside. At my work, we have a secured bicycle room to park our bikes in. As well, we have a gym and showers on site. I have a Bionx, so I...

My wife and I both have Bionx, and she had the exact same problem. Her bike would not power on. I tried her battery on my bike, it worked. I tried my battery on her bike, it did not work. We have the rack mount battery. Turns out that a tab on the rack not not perfectly "bent". The shop...

In Ontario, Canada, the motor is simply not allowed to assist you above 32 km/h (20mph). You can human power the bike as fast as you want above 32 km/h (up to the road speed limit). No license or insurance is required, just like a normal bicycle. I think that is a pretty good deal compared to...

Hello. I was hoping somebody could help me out. I have a PL350. It came with a non-throttle console. I just got my hands on a used throttle console, which works. However, it has been reprogrammed and I find it way too sensitive / powerful. The firmware on the throttle is 3.8, while my...

My wife has a Trek 7200+ which includes the Bionx 350W. We were having trouble with the system rebooting every few minutes when the headlight was on. The dealer replaced the console with one from a floor model and that seemed to solve that problem. A few days later, I noticed the clock was...
