    What Panniers / Trunk Bags work with the 2018 XDURO Trekking 9.0?

    I ordered an XLC adapter plate and pannier adapter from BikeInn, and it came in about 2 weeks, with very cheap shipping! better order now. Also see my thread here: https://electricbikereview.com/forums/threads/my-bike-urban-plus.24959/ without any adapters you can get common bags to fit. you...

    class 3 commuter bikes that can actually go 28 mph with some luggage?

    According to the cobi app which I can no longer use I was putting out well over 450 watts when I was going for top speed. I put other riders on it as well, who are faster cyclists than I am and same. This was an EX rental bike and I wonder if they had the assist turned down after a certain...

    Trump's tariffs

    I noticed the price increase when I was cargobike shopping. It has also affected SHARS import tooling, machining is sometimes a hobby of mine. Sure, I can buy american made tools for 5X the price, or I just might stop learning machining on my own if it requires new tools :( I'm also not...

    COBI update bricked my bike :( Haibike Urban Plus Cobi Update Bugs, any fixes?

    Half of the problem may be the firmware update to the hub or the software update on the phone. I would try an Iphone if you can, I am assuming there might be significant differences between the two apps

    COBI update bricked my bike :( Haibike Urban Plus Cobi Update Bugs, any fixes?

    that is a display that would interface with the Tranzx motor controller and eliminate the COBI system and thus all of our current problems. Anybody here have older versions of the cobi system or different phones and have no problem?

    Haibike Urban Plus OEM accessories

    Hey guys, I bought my bike used and I was wondering what I'm missing? I basically just got a complete bike. I saw in Court's Electric Bike review there's a usb dongle for this bike and I think he mentions you can change the amperage settings for the motor. I am thinking mine is set lower than...

    COBI update bricked my bike :( Haibike Urban Plus Cobi Update Bugs, any fixes?

    That's what I was updated to. I'm suprised you don't have any issues. It does not work on my LG K20 or MOTO E4. Perhaps it has something to do with the bluetooth chip in both of my phones. That makes sense on their hotline hours now dblhelix, it didn't make sense to me earlier.

    COBI update bricked my bike :( Haibike Urban Plus Cobi Update Bugs, any fixes?

    ok warning: If you have the android app unclick auto update until the next update. Do not allow it to update! Cobi support is closed on weekends and open very little on the week and I suspect it may be a while for a software resolution to this problem. I submitted help tickets to Cobi USA and...

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

    I am not entirely familiar with the workings of this system. It sounds like some wires may be getting electrical interference form the motor drive electronics, or maybe you have a bad connection (unlikely) or perhaps it is a bad component somewhere. You could try adding a ferrite core/ring...

    Changing chainring size? Motor damage?

    yeah it makes no sense really. a larger chain ring shouldn't cause the kindof damage. But what else would help cause that kindof damage? they're probably focusing on the one change. best to bring the drivetrain back to stock before a trip to the dealer.

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

    which is the make model and year of your HaiBike? is the speed shown accurate? or is it falsely showing a higher speed? you could have some road debris messing with the speed sensor, that sounds like a very weird problem. More details would be neccessary for any additional ideas.

    My Bike Urban Plus

    all the bags are ibera, i bought the medium triangle bag and now I almost wish I had gone with the large. But it is a pretty good aesthetic fit I had to modify the locking mechanism for the side bags/panniers for them to fit really good. I took about 4mm off of the locking pieces for them to...

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

    I went all in looking for loose connections but it seems some of them must be made in the motor housing on the urban plus? I couldn't really find any! I tightened up the battery terminals for stronger contact, and put some contact cleaner/corrosion inhibitor what I did notice when I was in...

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

    one issue I seem to have is assist cut out/ reduction over bumps. it seems that the shift sensor believes I have shifted and the assist disappears after a bump then slowly comes back. If I leave it in a lower gear the assist doesn't drop unless the bump is very large. The only other issue...

    Hello from Savannah GA!

    Just picked up a 2017 haibike urban plus and I couldn't be more pleased. That's the only ebike I've gotten hold of this far. My choices came down to this or the specialized turbo, an older model i believe a 2017, it was just the turbo s, no suspension. I really liked the turbo, and almost got...

    I know this is old but I just got my haibike and found the carrymore rack, at first I thought it looked too weak for me to mount my desired luggage. but upon close inspection, there is a hidden steel support bar that goes from the rack to the bike frame. It's hidden under the rear fender...
