We Fix Cowboy Bikes — The Right Way

Cowboy bikes require specific tools, parts, and experience.
Most issues cannot be properly repaired in standard bike shops.

We use professional diagnostics and real system data to identify faults accurately.

The Components Behind Most Cowboy Issues

Most recurring problems are linked to one of these components.

Torque Sensor

The torque sensor measures how hard you push on the pedals and sends this information to the controller.
The controller then adjusts the motor assistance in real time to match your effort.

Controller

The controller acts as the brain of the bike.
It manages power delivery from the battery to the motor and processes signals from the sensors.

Comm Module

The communication module connects the bike to the Cowboy app via Bluetooth.
It handles firmware updates, connectivity and diagnostic communication.

Motor

The motor is located in the rear hub and provides electric assistance while you pedal.
It relies on data from the sensors and commands from the controller to operate correctly.
