Does the Trek Allant+ 7S have the wireless transmitter to communicate its ebike functionality with the Edge Explore 2? Is there some way I can determine if it can transmit any information by testing it out first with my Garmin Forerunner 245? My watch doesn't pick up anything from the bike thus far — I have no idea it would be expected to or not.
I live in New Zealand. I called Garmin sales support in Australia and spoke with one of their product experts. He was understanding, but he said that Garmin does not have any direct line of communication with Trek so they can determine if the bike is compatible with the Garmin. He also said that the Garmin device may not be returnable if it is not compatible, because technically speaking the product is working to its specifications. It would be up to Garmin management to determine whether they would accept a return.
Interestingly, the power option variant of the Edge Explore 2 is currently unavailable for pre-order in the Australia New Zealand market, and he was unable to provide any information if it ever will be available.
