    Nyon Upgrade in USA worked out of the box!

    Checking back in with another Thanks to Alaskan and tallpaul. My chain was becoming stretched but now it's replaced. And the Nyon has been installed and seems to be working great. I've downloaded #2 State maps and still have some room. Big ride in Santa Fe next weekend. I have not yet synced it...

    Chain Life

    FullSeven S Pro has an 11 speed cassette. I had to go count cogs to be sure. I think there are a couple other minor differences between the bikes. Thanks for making me double check.

    Chain Life

    Yes, I've read the recommends for the KMC chains. I found a reasonable price on a KMC X11e and established a good contact with a local ebike technician. He had never ridden the CX Performance Speed and was really interested in it. I had him take a ride around the lot and he's a convert like me. lol

    Chain Noise?

    Wow, looks like I just got bit by the chain stretch. Rode it last week and put it up for the weekend. Took it down today and it puttered immediately. Up on the bike rack to find the chain is skipping and not seating on the small cog above the motor. No damage to any teeth but I'm not going to...

    Nyon Upgrade in USA worked out of the box!

    I'm still waiting on the controller, perhaps in another week. @Alaskan Just outstanding in both explanation and detail, thank you! I'm a tad excited after charging the Nyon and getting a feel for it's capabilities.

    Nyon Upgrade in USA worked out of the box!

    Bumpity for this thread. I have purchased a Nyon 1G version and I'm waiting for my controller cable purchased separately to arrive. I'm running Android on a Samsung S7Edge and would like any coaching available. I do have some family in England that can purchase a Google Play card. What steps...

    U-Lock for SDURO Trekking

    Good ideas here so here's my approach. I've got #2 folding locks and #2 locking cables. I park the bike in the most visible spot and use a combination of locks to secure it. A portable grinder makes noise, attracts attention and they'll need to spend time on two locks. If I was really concerned...

    500 powerpack upgrade

    The versatility and additional range are well worth my investment in the 500 Wh battery. Both posts above ^^^ reinforce that. I have a ride from my house that is 11 miles and 3000 ft of elevation gain. I made that ride 5 times and twice ran down the 400 Wh battery to zero. Not healthy for the...

    500 powerpack upgrade

    Sounds like the best deal I've heard of, congrats. It reinforces the idea that retail prices are marked up quite a bit over cost.

    500 powerpack upgrade

    There are discounted batteries available and I have upgraded. Many of us would like a backup battery and it makes sense to upgrade for that purpose. My understanding is that dealer cost on these batteries is in the $600 range so you can find them for a decent price. Talk to the dealer that sold...

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

    This ^^^^^^ is excellent advice. Electrical connections benefit tremendously by some petro based lube. In fact, my retired Aerospace engineer buddy points out that any grease will do. Spray some chain lube around, it works just as well according to him.

    Should bikes with the Bosch 500wh battery and motor have the same approximate range?

    I just spent some time playing with that calculator. Xduro FullSeven S Pro, it was spot on with my Intuvia and my experience over 1350 miles.

    Chain Noise?

    Hmmm, I did a tune/clean up and replaced my tires/tubes. I put on Maxxis Minion DHF 27.5x2.5 tires and they are outstanding. I noticed a significant decrease in drive train noise with the tune and lube. My motor makes some noise but nothing more than when it was new. I'm at 1350 miles now. Good...

    Fullseven XDURO S Pro 2016

    Well, I did it. Went for my first ride with the new 500 Wh battery on Weds. And I kept the 400 Wh battery on the rear rack for a backup. I'm thinking the bike range is now much more than my current physical range. I'm in a mountain region so it's grand to use maximum boost and not worry about...

    Question to Haibike Full Suspension owners

    I'm still on the OEM chain. I took it in for a tune up and software update. A good bike tech is priceless, an ebike tech with upgrades is harder to find. My chain spec'd out with no appreciable stretch/wear and my gearing jumps were easily adjusted away. Sprockets and teeth look good. Just like...

    Question to Haibike Full Suspension owners

    I've got a 2016 FullSeven S Pro with 1300 miles on it now. It has become a bit noisier than when new. I'm not concerned. It rides well and hasn't suffered battery fatigue. I just ran a 2 mile errand and didn't need to fire up a vehicle. This bike is the shizzle and I'm still smitten.

    Bosch - Intuvia (Walk-Assist Mode not working)

    I watched a dealer access the ECU and activate Walk Assist. It took him quite a while. When he attempted to test it, he wasn't successful at engaging it. I played with it for a few minutes and got it to work. From the OP's description, I don't think it's activated in his bikes software, take it...

    Bosch CX software update and chip mods- USA bikes?

    I've had my 2016 FullSeven Xduro S Pro for a year now. I have no reason to want or need to use boost to ride over 28 mph, it's already enough speed to get me in trouble. What I'd really like is a 500 Wh battery that would boost my range, I've sent inquiries to local dealers without success. How...

    Walk Assist + Throttle?

    I was at a dealership with a 2017 Bosch Performance Cx that was being updated to enable the Walk Assist mode. It was a cool feature, particularly on this large fat bike that weighed 65 lb easily. When my 2016 Performance Line Speed was updated, it showed no Walk Assist mode to enable. It's a...
