So , in all honesty it appears this is not possible , which makes me ask the question , why not? Some of you might wonder why I even want to turn off my bluetooth when the bike is on? Well , while not really feeling it is a threat in my instance , this video gave me pause on the subject:


Now while the odds of my bike being "hacked" are astronomically small , it's not hackers that I'm wary of. It's the manufacturers and their obsession with control. Yah Yah , I know , but in these particular days of the control and controllers issues being exposed , well , I'd just like to take back a bit of that control if I can.

Here's an answer I dug up on my own for those that are curious , but I do not have a Garmin and this seemed kinda dumb in that you'd use blutooth to turn off the bluetooth , sooo , yah.. But , not having a Garmin I cannot testify to this.

This is AI's answer:

"To turn off Bluetooth on the Orbea Rise M10, you would typically need to turn off the bike's power system. The Rise M10 does not have a dedicated Bluetooth on/off switch. To effectively disable Bluetooth, follow these steps:

  1. Press and hold the seat tube power button for one second to turn Rise off.
  2. This action will also disconnect any Bluetooth devices, such as the Shimano EW-EN100 junction or the Garmin unit with Orbea RS Toolbox installed.
If you need to manage Bluetooth connections specifically for the Garmin unit, you would need to turn off the Garmin device itself or manage the Bluetooth settings through the Garmin Connect app.

For detailed instructions on pairing and managing Orbea RS Toolbox with your Garmin device, refer to the Orbea RS Toolbox section of the user guide."
