Does anyone know where to find a USB Micro-A to USB C cord? (beehaw.org)

I wish this was a joke. Bosch used USB Micro-A on some of their e-bike motors to connect to a phone, which is USB C. The only one I've been able to find is the one Bosch made that's like 3 inches long and basically useless.

They're super easy to get online.

You can also get an adapter. I did that the other day. $8 from BestBuy and it comes with 2 of 'em. Either C to A or A to C. Whichever you need.

Micro A, not standard A, bottom left of this image.

Those exist, too. Look for USB-C Male to MicroA USB male adapter. Might have to go to one of those custom cable makers if it is actually micro-a and not the more common micro-b.
