    Over 50's 2017 XDuro Trekking 4.0 Chronicles

    I put a Badass 4 dongle on my Raleigh Magnum IE just after buying it. It made the Purion fairly useless but the bike is a hoot. FatBike at 25 mph is surprising to other riders to say the least. I really like the EMTB mode for my riding, it increases efficiency and range over the previous choices.

    Bosch Solar Charging

    lol Great discussion with Math explanations. My solar isn't portable but charges my eBikes just fine. 5.94 kW, 330 Watt Panasonic panels, SolarEdge 7.6 kW inverter, rooftop installation. 1:1 exchange with my Power company for 16 more years. Waiting patiently for more battery options. Never...

    5 Bosch Display Choices - Good, Bad and Ugly

    Bosch displays are interesting. I have 3, no Cobi in the barn. Purion is ok on the Fat tire bike, less likely to be damaged in a drop. 2 bikes have Cx S motors so one Nyon, one Intuvia. Big advantage with the Nyon is the ability to get an account and upgrade software myself. Intuvia boots...

    [Tip] Yamaha PW - How to check the number of cycles & absolute battery capacity

    - I was not aware that any dealer would reject an owner with a Bosch motor. That is just bad for business all the way around. So if you/I have a Bosch powered bike, and I relocate to where you live, those dealers will outright reject service?? Makes no sense to me at all! Is this some kind of...

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

    I had a similar issue that I attributed to the drive system. A good professional tune-up with a new chain solved it easily.

    Nyon Upgrade in USA worked out of the box!

    I have Utah and New Mexico loaded on my 1G model and it's out of useful memory. It won't handle another state and there are several I'd like to have available.

    Nyon Upgrade in USA worked out of the box!

    Hmmmm, just got my second ebike. Raleigh Magnus iE which comes with the Purion display. It won't get the cross country use my FullSeven gets so maybe the 1G version on the Raleigh and the 8G version on the FullSeven. Y'all are damaging to my bank account. lol ;)

    Bosch PowerPack 500 Review

    Nice Concise review of why I chose the Bosch system for my first eBike. It came with a 400 wH battery which I upgraded by adding a 500wH. Now that the ebike fleet is 3 bikes, they are all compatible battery wise. And I can teach the new ebiker battery maintenance and habits with the older 400 wH...

    Bosch Performance Line CX Review

    Interesting perspective, mine is the opposite. I have over 2600 miles on my first eBike, 2016 Haibike FullSeven S Pro. It's on it's third chain, just replaced and has the Nyon upgrade. Second set of brake pads are still good to go, just tuned mechanically last week. It does not have EMTB mode. I...

    Theft prevention with Purion

    Thanks, that clears things for me. I don't see many bike thieves carrying a Vise, Nut splitter and socket wrench. He's a bit deceptive imho, on it being an easy target.

    Theft prevention with Purion

    How did he do with this one? It's what I carry for short stops within visual range.

    Bosch Purion Review

    I've now got 2 bikes powered by Bosch. First is a FullSeven S Pro with 2600 miles on it. It started with an Intuvia the first 1200 miles which I thought was pretty good. I replaced it with a 1G Nyon which has made my smiles and miles even better. I appreciate the Bosch portal and have enjoyed...

    Theft prevention with Purion

    His homeowners policy. Don't be scared, I've watched skiis walk off the racks for decades and nobody locks them. Thieves simply suck Cable which was cut. I use the interlinked metal band locks, supposed to be more resistant to that. Lots of thieves are stupid too, they take anything they think...

    Anyone have experience de-restricting class 1 bike?

    Yeah, my buddy who recommended it has Yamaha power, that's why I'm asking here. He's had such a great experience that I've gone for it. My Black Friday FatTire Bike arrived and is in being built. Bosch Performance CX with MTB mode. Badass dongle is ordered and should arrive next week when the...

    Anyone have experience de-restricting class 1 bike?

    Has anyone used the Badass external dongle? I'm thinking it won't set off the Tampering alert. https://www.badassebikes.com/en/badass-box-ebike-tuning/bosch/badassbox-4-bosch/a-147/

    Anyone have experience de-restricting class 1 bike?

    ok, new Fat Tire Bosch Cx bike will be my Holiday present. It's Class 1 after me riding my Class 3 FullSeven S Pro for the past 2 years. It will have the Purion controller and if/when I install the Bikespeed RS are there any issues with the Purion vs Intuvia vs Nyon controllers? TIA for answers.
