    Bosch Nyon display in USA - Any advice or suggestions?

    I have intentionally avoided updating the firmware on my Nyon--that because I have read many reports of people who did so being unable to get their unit to work without sending it to Bosch. Mine worked fine with the firmware it came with, which is Version 2.5.0.0. I don't know what the update...

    Bosch Nyon display in USA - Any advice or suggestions?

    I purchased a Nyon unit from Europe and it worked perfectly as soon as I plugged it into my Haibike Race S 6.0. I did swap out the controller so I would have the toggle button in the remote controller, but the Intuvia controller did work to change the assistance level. The only challenge comes...

    Nyon Upgrade in USA worked out of the box!

    After over 11 months of waiting I finally got my Haibike Race S 6.0 that I had ordered my Nyon from Europe months ago to use with! Fortunately I have read many posts about issues with the update so I have declined it each time it is suggested. The main reason I wanted the Nyon was for the custom...

    Let's see your best pic of your electric bicycle

    After waiting 11months due to the front fork recall finally picked up my Haibike Race S 6.0. First ride up Marin Headlands over San Francisco Bay. It was worth the wait!

    Class I--15 vs. 20 mph

    I already tried that. They haven't given specific timing of release in the U.S., and won't comment on what the specs will be when (vs. if?) that happens.

    Class I--15 vs. 20 mph

    So would you guess given the power of this motor that even if marketed in the US the max speed limit will remain 25 km/hr? That's the speed stated in the x35 ebikemotion documentation.

    Class I--15 vs. 20 mph

    No I certainly don't need to go faster than 25 km/h uphill but all things equal more flexibility is a good thing--especially if it is just a software issue. For example on my ride today I was on a stretch by the water where there often is, and was today, a brisk headwind. So I was putting out...

    Class I--15 vs. 20 mph

    BTW I have read all the reviews. I think using it like I want to the battery range would likely be fine for me. I rarely ride more than 100 km and again I don't want to use the motor on downhills, flats, and hills of less than 7-8% gradient. I ride my non-electric mountain bike (which weighs...

    Class I--15 vs. 20 mph

    Thanks. Yeah I really only want an assist on steeper hills. What attracts me about this bike is that it is significantly lighter than most, so I would be more able to ride it with motor off most of the time (which is what I want to do). I am 61 and my hip will not let me climb some of the...

    Class I--15 vs. 20 mph

    Thanks for your reply. I ask not because I want to do any funny business, but because in my experience it might be a couple of years before the model I want is brought to the U.S. Manufacturers will say it is coming but the timeline is often open-ended, and one ends up waiting and waiting. If...

    Class I--15 vs. 20 mph

    I am sure this has been discussed but I can't find it by searching. I know there is a difference in upper speed for Class I bikes between Europe and the U.S. as described: "Class 1: Pedal Assist The electric drive system on the ebike can only be activated through a pedaling action and is...

    Nyon Upgrade in USA worked out of the box!

    I had the same problem--stopped by German customs even though others have had no problem in the past. I ended up ordering from Martin at E-Bikeshop in the U.K. Costs a lot more but got it in less than 10 days without a problem. You may be able to find it cheaper elsewhere but at least this...

    Haibike xduro Race

    I am awaiting a 2017 Xduro Race S 6.0 and am very interested in moving the remote switching controller to just under the brake hood. Can you explain more about the "accessory mount" you used? Thanks!
