    Bosch - Intuvia (Walk-Assist Mode not working)

    Same issue here, 2017 haibike trekking S 5.0. Walk-assist button does nothing. Does the dealer need the entire bike to perform the update? Or can the software be patched if I simply bring in the display? --EDIT Scratch that, it works! Just needed to press walk assist, and then the (+)...

    2017 Sduro Fullnine 6.0

    I am in southern California. Perhaps a short vacation out west is in order :) - Put a deposit on the fullnine 6.0 today - will be picking it up later this week. Got it for $2200+tax

    Bosch Intuvia won't switch from off to eco

    Mine also does that occasionally. Sometimes need to power off and then back on. Anyone know what this is about? Some sort of boot-up test that is failing? (wheel moving? etc?)

    Considering same two bikes, 215lbs here. 2017 sduro full nine 6.0 vs 2017 sdruro allmtn 5.0. full nine 6.0 has 29" wheels w/ rock shox components, allmtn 5.0 has 27.5 wheels w/ suntour components. I am finding both bikes for similar 2017 closeout pricing (~$2500 vs ~$2300) Rode them both...

    2017 commuter ebike - izip e3 dash vs haibike trekking 4.0

    Fit is pretty good. I am 5'8" and ended up with a Medium 52cm. With the seat close to the lowest it will go, the fit is just about perfect. I think there is still 4-5" left if you chop the seat post (it seems to be hitting the bend in the lower frame) My commute from home to work is 3.2...

    2017 commuter ebike - izip e3 dash vs haibike trekking 4.0

    Finally picked up the bike! I was a bit unlucky with the bike order/delivery coinciding with a move. Mostly unpacked now, so I visited the shop today to pick up the haibike. It is very nice :) Power is very smooth and quite noticeable on turbo. Takes the hills completely out of the...

    2017 commuter ebike - izip e3 dash vs haibike trekking 4.0

    Ha - no worries. I really wanted a trekking bike, but was hoping for a bosch power system over the yamaha. Would have been just as happy with a bosch CX 20mph motor, but the 28mph speed motor should be quite nice :). Was a bit hesitant to chip the bike to remove the speed limiter. Will...

    2017 commuter ebike - izip e3 dash vs haibike trekking 4.0

    Happy to share which local shop got me the deal. It may be more of a YMMV type situation... According to the LBS - this bike was sent to them due to an error by haibike/distributor. Rather than go through the return process and ship it back, they were able to take a discount on their cost if...

    2017 commuter ebike - izip e3 dash vs haibike trekking 4.0

    Awesome - thanks for the incredible write up. You've convinced me to steer clear of the yamaha drives for the time being. Which of course means that I would need to step up to a Xduro treekking for significant more money. Local dealer just called and offered a 2017 Haibiki Xduro Trekking S...

    2017 commuter ebike - izip e3 dash vs haibike trekking 4.0

    Yeah exactly - doing just that. I think finding a deal is more important than getting a specific brand/model to me. First e-bike, so once I test the waters a bit, I figure I could always upgrade 2-3 years down the line.

    2017 commuter ebike - izip e3 dash vs haibike trekking 4.0

    Perfect - appreciate that data point. Best I can find for the Sduro trekking 4.0 is $1999, so $700 more for the Xduro seems reasonable. Still need to do a bit more searching around re. best pricing. I am down in SD.

    Hmm ... Sounds like the Yamaha Sduro is out then!? IZIP vs Xduro? :)

    Second time I’ve seen that. Thanks for the tip.

    2017 commuter ebike - izip e3 dash vs haibike trekking 4.0

    Yes sorry all. I was refering to the Sduro Trekking 4.0 with Yamaha PW not the Bosch powered Xduro. Everything I read says to go Bosch and it seems like you all echo that :). Will have to call for pricing but I have a feeling the Xduro trekking may be closer to 3k? In that case is it worth the...

    2017 commuter ebike - izip e3 dash vs haibike trekking 4.0

    Hi All, I've recently moved, and now have the opportunity to bike commute (previously I lived 0.5 miles from work, so I walked) New commute is 4.5miles each way, with a large hill in the middle. Looking for a well-built commuter bike that can be used daily and or taken on local paths, to...
