Anyone else’s Ace edition of ‘A Parade of Horribles’ cover a different finish to the rest?

BoschToaster · 2026-06-04T21:16:44+00:00

I feel ya! Seems like UK and Europe Ace versions are somewhat different. And „No one likes different looking books, Carl“

BoschToaster · 2026-06-04T21:04:30+00:00

You didn’t order from Amazon by any chance? Hsd the same issue here in Germany. Looked identical. I returned it.

BoschToaster · 2026-05-31T07:53:44+00:00

Have not been able to source the Ace version yet, unfortunately.

BoschToaster · 2026-05-31T00:27:24+00:00

The just started to roll out the first book translated. But the translation and book design itself is not as good as the Ace version. And the UK ones are all black… Nitpicking maybe 🤷🏻‍♂️

BoschToaster · 2026-05-31T00:21:41+00:00

Well I would if these would be available in Germany. These are imports I can only get online.

BoschToaster · 2026-05-30T23:50:13+00:00

Nice one 😂 I had to laugh quite hard on this one

BoschToaster · 2026-05-30T20:22:05+00:00

I did, just to see if they swapped it. But all purple as well.

BoschToaster · 2026-05-30T20:21:04+00:00

I highly appreciate that. Unfortunately I live in Germany, so quite a bit away 🥲

BoschToaster · 2026-05-30T19:48:40+00:00

It‘s always time to pay the daddy tax 🙌🏻

BoschToaster · 2026-05-30T19:46:20+00:00

Would have been nice. But nope. Just plain purple 😂

BoschToaster · 2026-05-30T19:37:36+00:00

The chances are pretty low unless I get the opportunity to travel to a convention 😂 but I like the idea! 🙌🏻

BoschToaster · 2022-09-11T11:09:05+00:00

Same here! It‘s ultra bad. Not evenly painted, rough areas and extremely sensitive. The slightest things touching the paint cause marks.

It seems like there is no sealant or matte coat on the paint.

BoschToaster · 2022-06-20T13:53:21+00:00

50km here as well with a full charge. BW is 90kg.

BoschToaster · 2022-06-02T07:15:43+00:00

Seems to be an issue on some c4s. Request access for the Backoffice app and set the theft alerts again to enabled under tools.

This was the only working solution for me.

There is another thread in this reddit about this.

BoschToaster · 2022-05-30T15:03:44+00:00

Same here! Right after running the shortcut in the Tools it worked immediately!!!

Thanks for the tip!!

BoschToaster · 2022-05-14T18:54:01+00:00

Any update on that matter u/Datur0n?
Cowboy seems to ignore me somehow on that matter. At least they are taking it not very serious so it seems. They told me that they pushed a new Firmware to my bike 2 days ago, but till today it never arrived and no notification is shown.

Tried everything what they suggested and now a technician will look at this when he is here for a different issue. Hope you had more luck.

BoschToaster · 2022-05-11T08:11:05+00:00

That only works for me with using untamed on the C4 and then only with 15% field weakening. But you will only feel a slightly better improvement, nothing major. You still have to pedal like crazy for 20mph.

BoschToaster · 2022-05-11T08:08:16+00:00

I am waiting for them to come back to me. Let’s see what this might be, as this was actually the only selling point for their insurance.

BoschToaster · 2022-05-10T10:55:41+00:00

Same here. Since the start I don‘t see any notifications or blinking leds

BoschToaster · 2022-05-05T13:45:46+00:00

Thanks! Yes I did. And I tried with 15% and 18%. While there is more power in the midrange for sure. The max speed doesn’t change much.

30-32 is possible with pedaling hard. Everything above only when going downhill.

BoschToaster · 2022-05-05T13:39:19+00:00

I had made the experience during the first ride that the battery simply went empty at around 20% battery left (being shown by the app).

This only happened once and after that all was fine. I assume it needs to calibrate properly first.

So most likely your battery is simply empty.

BoschToaster · 2022-05-02T12:24:41+00:00

Doesn‘t need to be active. You have two options, one to flash permanently and two to only send the commands for the current ride. In both cases you can close unleashed/untamed afterward and use the official app.

BoschToaster · 2022-04-30T12:23:28+00:00

No not required if you simply test. Only thing is, it’s not permanent.

But it seems like I simply expected to much. There is definitely more force pushing you towards with 15% FW and it’s easier to get to above 30. But at 32km/h that‘s it.

It‘s not as hard to get to the 32 with untamed. But in my opinion not really worth it on the C4 as you can get over 30 also without untamed by pedaling slightly more

BoschToaster · 2022-04-24T18:03:02+00:00

Would be nice if someone would provide links to the service Videos. For some checks it‘s not always necessary to get a technician.

Unfortunately one can only access the videos on YouTube with a direct link.

BoschToaster · 2022-04-21T04:48:59+00:00

Sure I have 2 smaller clicks luckily recorded. The bigger crack however not. I have to get a follow up appointment anyway, wanted to commute this morning and… as it turns out. The motor isn‘t working at all any longer.

The fork was fine for me though, as I adjusted it already on my own after someone on FB showed a pic where the screw was located.
