I wonder if it is possible to replace the cumbersome LED Remote with the new Mini Remote? Or is it required to have the "System Controller" installed?

Seems like every bosch update is not compatible with the previous, that is pretty annoying.Also interested in this... Would have thought buying into the smart system would allow some ability to retrofit new upgrades. Unfortunately it's looking like you are only going to get the new toys by buying a new bike.
That's exactly how I also understand it.I would suspect that the mini remote only works with the top tube display as the electronics need to go somewhere. Though I might be wrong.
Sadly your wrong. This has been covered before, on the link you posted the first line statesThe info on this site seems like the mini remote should be compatible with the Smart System: Bosch Mini Remote control unit for Smart System
I'm assuming bluetooth is available for Smart System bikes so it can communicate with the eBike Flow app?
yes it is part of the Bosch Smart System but it is only a switch and needs to work with its designated controller. That controller is designed to fit in the top tube so you would need also to buy that controller and find a way to fit it to the bike. You would also need to delete your pairing to the existing LED Remote and then pair to the new controller ( you can only pair Flow to one bike...and the bike is defined by the controller.......so change the controller and it is in effect a different bike.The info on this site seems like the mini remote should be compatible with the Smart System: Bosch Mini Remote control unit for Smart System

Yes, but I believe Bosch has locked down the mini remote to only work with the system controllerDoesn’t your Kiox communicate with your phone via Bluetooth?
I don’t doubt that. But Bluetooth functionality is there even with my “old” Series 4 2020/21 trek rail. There are some clever folk out there (not me by the way) I’m surprised no one has created something after market as yet….maybe one dayYes, but I believe Bosch has locked down the mini remote to only work with the system controller
Hi mate , today i conected mini remote to LED Remote over Flow app , all is ok.I wonder if it is possible to replace the cumbersome LED Remote with the new Mini Remote? Or is it required to have the "System Controller" installed?
So do you still have the LED remote on the bars?Hi mate , today i conected mini remote to LED Remote over Flow app , all is ok.
That's cool. I'm trying to get rid of all the clutter. Can you put the led wired remote in the frame and just use the mini without the ungodly kiox? So the the only thing visible is my mini
my intention was to get ergonomic control, which the LED remote carried, the proximity of the brake and the seatpost control did not make it possible. in the future I want to change the control remote to a mini remote.If the Mini Remote is communicating with the LED Remote via blutooth that would likely not work with the LED Remote inside the frame ( and not sure how you would get it in there anyway!!!).
Not sure what has been gained here. The LED Remote is still needed as the system controller so has to be retained and there are few places it can be positioned other than on the bars.
I would think the blue tooth could easily communicate through the frame. I'd put it above my battery. There is plenty of room in my bike. But, alas, no power button access.If the Mini Remote is communicating with the LED Remote via blutooth that would likely not work with the LED Remote inside the frame ( and not sure how you would get it in there anyway!!!).

Yeah thats the kicker....I would think the blue tooth could easily communicate through the frame. I'd put it above my battery. There is plenty of room in my bike. But, alas, no power button access.

there is no LED remote, there is no connection to the motor, come up with something elseI also want to hide the Led box.
For when I'm tyred, so people don't see anymore when I put the bike in Turbo
