Warning!!

Riding a tuned or deristricted EMTB is not a trivial offence and can have serious legal consequences. Also, many manufacturers can detect the use of a tuning device or deristricting method and may decline a repair under warranty if it was modified from the intended original specification. Deristricting EMTB's can also add increased loads for motors and batteries. Riding above the local law limit may reclassify the bike as a low-powered bike, requiring insurance, registration and a number plate.

Be aware of your local country laws. Many laws prohibit use of modified EMTB's. It is your responsibility to check local laws. Ignoring it, has potential implications to trail access, and risk of prosecution in the event of an accident.

Has anyone used a planet bike derestricter device on a bosch gen 4 bike?

Has it been successful for many number of miles?

My understanding from the website is it a mechanical derestricter and tricks the computer into its going slower than it is, does the bosch system have any other way of reading the speed that may ping up a fault or problem?
