    Juiced Closing Up Shop?

    Bummer, my wife loves her Juiced CCS. We now both have unserviced bikes we love (mine is a Haibike).

    SDURO Trekking 6.0- Getting to know it

    I forgot my battery one day last week and ended up doing a 16 miles ride on a very heavy bike :-) I was good exercise and glad to know that on a relatively flat landscape I could get somewhere with a dead battery.

    SDURO Trekking 6.0- Getting to know it

    Well, coming up to 5 year anniversary of buying my Haibike. During that time, my fleet has narrowed as I have ridden the ebike more and more over time. Have used it for a multiday bike tour, commuting, countless loops rides, and drug it with me to many national parks, forests, and BLM lands. So...

    Haibike PW-ST not working.

    Sheepish confession, I forgot to start with the simplest explanation again. I got back from a a multiday camping and biking trip and on the way home drove through hard rain with my bike on hitch mounted rack. Yesterday I went out to ride and the display flashed on and off and drive did nor work...

    Known Issues & Problems with Haibike Products + Help, Solutions & Fixes

    Three years in and the only issue that I have come across is the weak wiring setup to the rear light. I am going to take it off when I put my bike up for the winter and either come up with a new idea to permanently fix it or get a new light. I have been pleased with the overall ride and the...

    Taking Your eBike RVing

    Security Options 1.) it you use a hitch mounted bike rack made for ebikes you can get a locking one. Our Hollywood came with a long cable bike lock. Transport without the battery attached for a couple of reasons but an ebike without a battery has lower steal appeal. You can leave them locked on...

    Welcome to Ebike Touring & Travel Forum!

    Ebike tour of Natchez Trace Parkway, April 2021 We hit a weather window between spring storms and had a nice outing. This was touring-lite, we were looking to stop and look around often and have a fun outing rather than put the hammer down. As it turns out, it might have been as easy or easier...

    Wow! My Head Hurts. Feeling discouraged.

    Both of the bikes that you referenced will get a 150 lb person up the type of hills that you are describing. For me, I would buy the one from the LBS as you will have a relationship there if you have any issues.

    Biktrix Swift Stepthru vs Juiced Crosscurrent S2

    My wife has three years on her Juiced CC and loves it. I can't speak to customer service as nothing has gone wrong yet. The videos for assembling and changing a flat tire were helpful. A flat on the rear is a bit of a production with hub drives.

    Trekking for Touring?

    FWIW, I ended up using my Haibike for the Natchez Trace Parkway. It came with 400w battery and that proved to be a limitation. Shortly before the trip I looked into getting a backup battery but delivery time and cost made that not work out. The bike was comfortable for the length that I could...

    SDURO Trekking 6.0 Spokes

    2018 All of the SDURO Trekking bikes are 28in wheels I learned from calling Haibike that the wheels are not standard, so this question is now moot. Someone with the same bike might know :)

    SDURO Trekking 6.0 Spokes

    HI: Does anyone know the spoke length for the wheels on this bike? I found reference to 14ga but no length in the documents that came with the bike. I need to order some and do not have easy access to my bike right now.

    Trekking for Touring?

    Anyone have experience using their Trekking (Yamaha) for touring? We are prepping to ride Natchez Trace and I am deciding between by hybrid and my Haibike. Any pros/cons or tips from touring experience?

    I did pull it out for one more ride but I ride starting at 7200' and go up from there so we are into winter.

    2018 Haibike trekking 6.0... 500mi. report

    Just put my bike up for the winter, another pleasurable summer on the Haibike. Going to stop using it on challenging roads/trails in the future due to wear on wheels and general frame. Going to get a tune up over the winter to be ready in the spring. Any ideas how I can get a pile of...

    2018 Haibike trekking 6.0... 500mi. report

    Popped my first spoke at about 2000 miles. As a big rider that is pretty good. If I pop another one I will look at a wheel rebuild over the winter. Anyone have a source for replacing the spokes with OEM or heavier duty spokes?

    2018 Haibike trekking 6.0... 500mi. report

    At about 1800 miles the smoke has pretty much shut down riding for me so I have time for a quick update. Battery is doing fine. The bike overall has not had any problems. It is due for a tune soon. I had been a little hard on it on forest roads but no single track, it is holding up okay but is...
