Ensuring your eBike operates correctly involves several key settings, and one crucial aspect is the Bike Wheel Size. For Bosch eBike systems, there are specific limitations on adjustments to the wheel circumference settings. If you’re attempting to input a value that deviates more than 5% from the factory default, the system will likely prevent the change. This constraint isn’t arbitrary; it’s in place to safeguard accuracy and highlight potential underlying issues.
This limitation suggests that a significant discrepancy in wheel size settings typically points to a problem beyond simple adjustments. It could indicate an error in the factory programming, the installation of an incorrect tire size, or another mechanical or software-related issue affecting your eBike’s performance readings. If you suspect that your current wheel circumference value is significantly inaccurate, seeking professional assistance is advisable.

Your local Bosch Certified dealer is equipped to diagnose and rectify such discrepancies. They possess the expertise to liaise with your eBike’s manufacturer to correct any factory programming errors. Furthermore, dealers can access diagnostic reports from your Bosch system to pinpoint irregularities in circumference values and determine the appropriate settings for your specific eBike model and tire configuration. It’s possible the initial wheel circumference was incorrectly configured at the factory level, or perhaps a tire specification change occurred during production that wasn’t updated in the system.
These situations, while not frequent, do occur. Bosch and eBike manufacturers have established protocols to address and resolve these issues efficiently. However, resolving them typically necessitates a visit to a Certified Dealer who can perform the necessary diagnostics and adjustments.
To provide more tailored guidance, could you share the model of your eBike? Based on visual cues such as what appears to be a Bontrager logo and a custom Kiox mount in your image, it seems like you might own a Trek eBike. Sharing your model information, and ideally a photo of your setup, would allow us to consult our team and check for any reports from users with the same model concerning wheel circumference settings. While remote assistance has its limits, we are committed to helping you understand the situation better. Ultimately, a certified shop visit remains the most effective course of action, particularly if adjustments to the system values are required.
