    Nyon Retrofit

    Again, the Alaskan will be able to help I believe. He has two R&M bikes, one that uses the Nuvinci shifter and the other with the Rohloff shifter (which he really likes!) I test drove one the other day and the Rohloff hub shifter was quite nice, and has 14 speeds! Eliminating the derailleur...

    Nyon Retrofit

    BTW, I agree with the Alaskan's comment about getting a Nyon just for the battery percentage. It is nice to see occasionally. But I have had my bike for around a year and a half with over 3000 miles on it. I just charge it up after my rides and do not worry about the percentage. There has been...

    Nyon Retrofit

    If you have the Intuvia on your bike already then all you'll need in addition to the the Nyon is the Nyon specific remote controller that will connect to the bottom of the Intuvia mount with its 4 teeny little screws replacing the Intuvias remote connector. Then you should be ready to go. The...

    Nyon Retrofit

    The Alaskan is the leading expert on the conversion, and very generous with his knowledge. If you search here for Nyon you will find several step by step instructions from the Alaskan that are really all you'll need. He (and I as well) went from the Intuvia so you'll have to add in the base and...

    Nyon Retrofit

    Alaskan replied "The Nyon does not attach to the Intuvia base unit." I think it was a typo. Actually the Nyon does attach to the Intuvia base. But you'll need the Nyon remote and the wiring to connect to the motor

    Chain Life

    Saru9999, are you serious regarding the mileage you get out of your chains? I ask as I am on my 3rd chain in 2600 miles and am disappointed in how long they last. And this is with 95% street riding. After the Shimano chain (went about 1200 miles) I replaced it with the X10e, lasted about the...

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

    Glad to hear that. That's how it should be considering the price level, but sadly that isn't always so. Especially smart when you are in a relatively new business, at least here in the US,of bikes with new models coming out almost daily that this will add to your credibility of a quality product!

    Bosch CX Range Determined

    What a beautiful Trail. Just what i have been looking for down here in San Diego. Maybe someday I'll load the bike up and head north! Glad to see you loving' the R&M. 44 miles on one battery is good! I see that it was 40% of your body power that helped get you to that stat. Gotta love the Nyon...

    Casette recommendations

    Thanks Nova. Is there a particular reason why you recommend this cassette?

    Casette recommendations

    I think it is time to replace the Shimano 10 speed cassette with about 2400 miles on it on my Haibike Full Seven mtb. Getting set to replace chain, I get about 1200 miles before they start to get noisy. Is there one brand or model that stands out? Smooth shifting, quiet and durability are...

    Bosch shift detection - what does it do?

    I have noticed the shift sensing on my Bosch Performance drive. it happens subtly and quickly. I assume that backing off the power when shifting puts less strain on all drivetrain components, especially the chain. Speaking of chains, is there a clear "best" chain that anyone knows of for our...

    Question to Haibike Full Suspension owners

    Sweetwater, the mileage that your chain went for is about the same as I experienced. How were you able to connect the chain without a master link, assuming you got the KMC as opposed to the Shimano which I believe does not use a master link?

    Nyon Upgrade in USA worked out of the box!

    Sweetwater, looks great! I thought that was my bike for a second, new chain and all. What chain did you wind up with? I found that MucOff C3 Ceramic chain lube was the the best of three leading types of chain lube. Just swapped out the Maxxis Ikon+'s for the Schwalbe Super Moto X tires, both...

    Electric Bike Lights

    I use a Nip800 alongside a Tuck on the handlebars, and a Tuck at the rear (see pic's above on this thread). They pulse, not strobe, and I think that a strobe would be more visible then the pulse, which is a slow ramp up and down. I wish there was a way to change them to the strobe. But the...

    Dmitri, The KMC X10e is ebike specific. Also I think Shimano now has one as well.
