    Mystery screws on XDuro Trekking frame

    So, I have had my 2016 XDuro Trekking RX for a while now and these screws have bothered me from the beginning. I just could not figure out what they are for and so I decided to poll the collective knowledge of the forum. #1, marked in green, is a single screw on the inside of the drive-side...

    Bosch spare parts

    Is there a source for uncommon Bosch (or compatible) spare parts? I got my battery replaced on warranty earlier this year. Bosch did not want the old battery back and the only thing wrong with it is a bad connector. I'd like to keep it as a backup and am looking for a source that sells the...

    Brand new Bosch PowerPack 400

    This may seem like deja vu from a post below but is actually a separate sale. Same story though. I received a warranty replacement for a failing battery on my Haibike from Bosch. Brand new, never even unpacked it. I already upgraded to a Powerpack 500 and want to recoup some of my costs by...

    Almost a year of commuting on the XDuro Trekking RX

    So I got my 2016 XDuro Trekking RX in February and have commuted on it almost every day since. As you can see below, I just crossed the 5000 mile mark and, weather permitting, I will hit 6k when 2019 rolls around. This was my first e-bike after decades of commuting and recreational riding on...

    Different setting after firmware update. Sport vs. eMTB.

    I had my Haibike XDuro Trekking RX at the LBS for a firmware update this week. During the first ride after I got it back I noticed that the function for what used to be "Sport" had changed (the third highest setting). Instead of providing a stead, higher level of support it seemed to be...

    Charged halfway and now unresponsive. Help!

    After my ride home Friday I plugged in my charger as usual and all seemed well. The indicator on the Intuvia and the lights on the battery blinked and it said "charging". But when I came in the next morning, the Intuvia still showed "charging" but the battery indicator and LEDs were only up to...

    Battery not charging all the way?

    Today was the fourth time it happened to me and I wanted to see if anybody had an idea of what could be wrong (if anything) and what to do about it. Sometimes, like today, the bike (2016 Haibike XDuro Trekking RX) charged overnight and when I start my ride the display is off and the charger is...

    Bosch sprocket/lockring upgrade

    New Haibike owner here. Despite being a longtime bike mechanic I ran into the mid-drive Bosch trap and neglected to change my chain early. I got a total of 2500 miles out of the drivetrain before noises and loose feel had me swap the chain and, sure enough, it was too late and the sprocket and...

    Frame compatibility Bosch vs. Yamaha

    Just curious. Does anybody know if the frame is the same for XDuro vs. SDuro models? In other words: would it be possible to switch from Bosch to Yamaha drive or the other way around?

    Bosch dual battery retrofit

    Sorry if this has been covered here before but I am new and wasn't able to find anything definitive here or elsewhere. I am relatively new to the ebike world, bought a Haibike XDuro Trekking RX in January and love it. However, it only has the 400Wh battery and on my 18 mile commute I need to...

    Greetings from southern California

    Hi everybody, After commuting by conventional bikes for decades and making fun of friends with "mopeds" I finally got an e-bike myself in January. I still have this feeling of guilt most days but it only lasts a couple of seconds after I hit the road. I shaved about 30 minutes off my 18...
