Did some reading on German pages for installation tips (I'm a recovering German) and apparently it can be wired into the DC as it can handle 5-50 Volts. Or hook it up to the headlight wires, in which case it'll only work when the light is on. I'll play around with it. But I wouldn't consider it...

I am getting an IQ-X E too. Had the IQ-X on my previous commuter bike and it was fantastic. I just happened to see the horn on the website but have not found a lot of info on it. Not even on the BUMM.DE website. But it is specific to e-bikes and it appears to be wired into battery somehow. I'll...

I just ordered this one, along with an upgraded front and rear light. I'll write a review here when it arrives and I installed it. Busch + Müller E-Bike Horn - 660CTU35PB

Depends on the model. A few have an option to change the bite point but most don't.

Those are cartridge bearings. The grease and actual moving parts are under those blue rings (do not lift those out). The rust you see likely ran down the tube from higher up when it was raining and is likely not from the actual bearings but from the clamp bolts or something like that. You cannot...

So this happened on my ride to work this morning. In about 2 months I'll see if there is another digit on that odometer when I cross 10k.

I don't know. Saw it mentioned somewhere and thought to myself "why not?" so I just did it. I did keep the spare handy, though. I understand that when a belt fails it is usually not because the teeth are worn out but because it snaps.

Good luck with the shipping! I tried and found out that it is next to impossible for a private party to do because it is considered hazardous goods.

I had a conventional belt drive bike for commuting before I got my e-bike. Was a Spot ACME and I loved that bike. I put about 6500 miles on the belt before I sold the bike. Had already bought a spare but did not need to install it yet. I reversed my belt about 4000 miles in to even out the wear...

I have tried both on my bike and could not see any significant difference between the two.

I have a Bosch Performance CX on my Haibike, chipped for no restriction. I am a Clydesdale at 6'4" and 205(ish) pounds and like to go fast. On my road and mountain bikes I used to easily get about 2-3k miles for a chain but on the Haibike I am at 1000-1500. Completely forgot to check stretch...

Thanks Feliz ! My Haibike is the first ebike for me and I have no experience at all with non-factory drives. I only tested stock bikes with Yamaha, Bosch and Brose drives and did my research for chips to tune those. I can hit the same speeds as on my ebike when I ride my one of my TT or road...

Late to the show but wanted to comment that this bike is now officially on my short list for replacement of my Haibike XDuro Trekking Rx. It is very close to how I would assemble my own ideal commuter bike, which definitely includes an IGH and belt drive. My last conventional commuter bike...

Saw the best bumper sticker on my way to work this morning.

I think what you are looking for is this bracket by B+M https://hammertimecycling.com/merchant-product/3/busch-m-ller-handlebar-mounting-bracket-470lhpb

That’s the thing. The Peartune fakes the speed sensor input so the computer thinks it is only going well below 20mph and the motor doesn’t cut off. It doesn’t tamper with the system itself.

I am aware of the warranty issue and as a recovering German, also aware of the highly regulated nature of e-bikes. I'm just not sure how the system would know. Unless there are now tamper proof connectors to prevent plugging in a speed chip I am not sure how they would detect this.

I have 2017 Haibike XDuro Trekking RX with the CX drive and 20mph restriction. I immediately bought the Peartune MSO chip and installed it to remove the restriction. I was worried when I took the bike to a local dealer for a software update and removed the chip for that purpose but the scan...

I second the SKS option. Have been using it on my XDuro Trekking RX for over a year now.

Started riding my Haibike XDuro Trekking Rx in March of 2018. As of today I have just over 7200 miles.
