Just do it!Don't do it!
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.
We advise members great caution. EMTB Forums accepts no liability for any content or advice given here.

Thats not true,my E8000 motor failed with the EO10 error, Madison the UK importer replaced it and I have been using STUunlocker since it was first releasedA bike dealer can not check if you’ve done anything to derestrict your ebike unless they ride it, but if it needs to go to Shimano for repairs, they will know and void the warranty on your motor.
Don't know where you are but Madison in the UK decide on Shimano warranty claimsI said Shimano and not Madison the UK importer.
Well, call them up and ask themDon't know where you are but Madison in the UK decide on Shimano warranty claims
They did mineWell, call them up and ask them if I use a third party app to derestrict my motor will it void my warranty. Then report back.....
What did they say when you told themThey did mine
Why would you tell them? they replaced the motor without any questions, don't know what you're problem is but I can only go by my experienceWhat did they say when you told them that you use a third party app to derestrict your motor? Or was that something you forgot to mention?
Sorry my mistake....Why would you tell them? they replaced the motor without any questions, don't know what you're problem is but I can only go by my experience
STEPS Unlocker
You can use your Premium licence on any phone with new AppHey Vadll, I've been using STEPS Unlocker for 6 month and it works great on my focus bike. I'm about to change for a new phone and as I understand there STunlocker is your new app. In order to get it to work, do I need to buy a new license or can I somehow use the same one I have today? //Robert
Great, thanks and keep up the good work!You can use your Premium licence on any phone with new App
Riding a tuned or deristricted EMTB is not a trivial offencehi, does changing region affect the shimano warranty? Thanks
Do you personally have any proofs of this?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.
That is, for the US market, Shimano supplies some kind of special motor and battery? Or does a Shimano launch a motor and battery on the US market that will not withstand 32km/h permitted in the US?Deristricting EMTB's can also add increased loads for motors and batteries.
Do you think that Shimano warranty does not apply to bikes which are sold in the USA?hi, does changing region affect the shimano warranty? Thanks
Hello Vadll, I would like to try too, if possible.Yes. PM sent
The App is available in Google Play and AppStore...Hello Vadll, I would like to try too, if possible.
The new version 1.9 is available:
- added the new feature: it's possible to select "Preset" which will be automatically applied after establishing a connection with the bike. It can be canceled. Some customers wanted this feature for a case of Police control...
Hard to imagine a techy policeman demanding you connect ST Unlocker to your bike so they can check your settings. Seems more likely they would just write you a ticket for exceeding the legally-assisted speed limit.
Also, I don't see how tuning could void my warranty as long as I keep it below 300% as 70nm, as Shimano's own app allows these settings.
Licence costs 30 euro excluding VAT.Hi vadll brand new on hear and it seam like your the man to ask I've been reading your post on st unlocker and as other people have stated the 25km limit is a bit annoying i have reset some of the assistance levels in eco and trail threw e max but as you'll know it won't let you adjust the speed limit without the licence code and at £105 its a bit steep just wondering if you could let me know of a cheaper way of setting it to the US speed limit
Hi vadll were do you purchase it from ?Licence costs 30 euro excluding VAT.
I sell it ))Hi vadll were do you purchase it from ?
