E-TUBE RIDE APP

[stiv674]

Has anyone got this app and successfully connected it to their bike?

 

[Andy A]

Yes I have

 

[stiv674]

Yes I have

Thanks, is it just basically a display for the ride information?

 

[Andy A]

I don't use it all I did was set trail to medium instead of low and I left boost on high and I haven't looked since

Yes I have

Hi Andy,
I’ve tried on my iPhone without any success with the E8000.

I thought it only worked on the E6000 system?

Sorry just re read the earlier post again and I can get the E-Tube app to work but not the ride app.

I did notice there was a system update for the etube app today and a couple of updates for the motor and DI2 shifters.

Didn’t notice any advantages post updates.

Ah sorry I'm referring to a different app, thanks though

I was just watching a video on embn about motors and I noticed a different shimano app on there so had a look, maybe it doesn't work with the E8000 then.

Thanks

I have the E-Tube ride app, it is designed to work want he EN100 module that eliminates the display - the app is basically a way of using your phone as the display for the bike, and not much more.

Thanks, not really worth worrying about then.

The e-ride app actually works with any Shimano controller/display EXCEPT the e8000 colour display. You could use the EN100 or even try the monochrome e7000 display on your e8000 motor. The e-ride app works with either of these.

Not a big fan of the Shimano display accuracy on my Focus Jam2. Compared to the GPS data on my Garmin Edge 1000 there is a 9% error in the speed and distance data metrics. In reality it means my speed restriction limit is more like 22.75 kph not the 25 kph legal limit for on-road use.

Mine is the same. Approx ~10% difference. I am using emax software to change the wheel circumference to make up the difference.

It is also worth noting that low tyre pressures used off-road will reduce the wheel circumference and you will find the difference will be greater off-road than onroad as Result

Did you manage to correct the speed error by changing the wheel circumference?

Shaun, did you test my app ? it helps you to go over this limit 25/26 kph. check the site speed plus.nl

Is this a pc based software app which requires the PCE Shimano interface to use?

Shaun, you need to have the SM-PCE1 or 2 to do this ; yes
