They do it only to irritate you.

Probalby because on a technical side the new power tube is longer than the existing 500wh one, so if they where going to bring out a larger power pack, it may not fit in the existing mounting system.

I think we will see new external batteries in the future, but only when viable to fit better cells into the existing housings/dimensions.

Interesting.... they also claim (on other sites) that it's German-made. Could find no info on which cells they use though, which -to me- would be a need-to-know. Also, weight could be a concern - can the frame/mounts cope with that?
Some other shops list them at EUR 865

Ah, found manufacturer website... strangely enough, they don't show Bosch CX- powerpacks on their onw site.
Cells, they claim, are Panasonic or Samsung.

Time for a bit of CAD (Cardboard Aided Design) I think.

It's a lot of money though, nearly twice the price of a second Bosch battery.

and its only 20.7ah whereas you would have 26.8ah if you carried a spare 500

Yes, but then I'd be carrying a battery in my backpack. Do you think that's a good idea, given how often I part company with the bike?
