    Nyon or Kiox retrofit?

    Interesting development, I took the plastic housing off to see what the job looks like, and to my untrained eye, I don't need to even touch the motor mounts, I can access the holes the wires come out of, in-situ, in my Haibike. Anyone confirm?

    Torque settings for Bosch CX motor?

    Sorry for bumping an old thread. I'm pondering doing a nyon upgrade on my Performance Line Bosch based ebike (haibike Sduro 3.0 2020), as all my local bike shops are incapable of even basic things like answering emails, let alone bike servicing. I've not looked in detail at how the motor is...

    Nyon or Kiox retrofit?

    Turned up today. There was indeed £55 Brexit charges, and £12 customs charges. So about £320 on total. Not fitted it yet, but charged it up, updated firmware and had a tinker. So far impressed. Very responsive and comprehensive.

    Nyon or Kiox retrofit?

    Bit the bullet, ordered a 2021 Nyon retrofit kit from Germany, which is on eBay for €310 euros (£265, plus £14 shipping and possibly another £50 brexit fees on-top). 2 available, now 1 left...

    Do you have to pay extra for the lock feature? I see "restore purchase" mentioned.

    Nyon or Kiox retrofit?

    So I have send other videos, where the motor can be dropped out, without removing the pedals, I also have a regular crank on mine (gen 3 performance line), not the small cog on the one seen here.

    Nyon or Kiox retrofit?

    Yes, and the 2 out of 2 responses are very disappointing.. I do live in a semi-rural area, not a city, but it's still poor. It feels I am perhaps better doing this myself. I at least have an idea of the complexity of the task, after some youtube vids, and have access to torque wrench, it...

    Nyon or Kiox retrofit?

    Be keen to hear how it goes. I phoned 2 local Bosch ebike centres, first is no longer trading, the the only other local Bosch service centre had no idea what I was asking, and "certainly didn't have the tools or knowledge" to do such an upgrade. Clearly there is a very low bar to becoming a...

    Nyon or Kiox retrofit?

    Sorry for bumping old thread, but it was the most appropriate. I'm looking to upgrade from Intuvia on my Haibike Sduro 3 2020 with Performance Line Gen3 motor. There appear to be 4 options. Kiox Original Nyon New Nyon Smartphone Hub They all need the motor dropping and a cable running down...

    Not a great start with e-bikes. Chain continually jumps off the front sprocket.

    As with everything, it's likely to very hugely from store to store. The one I used they were really thorough, and would definitely recommend them.

    Not a great start with e-bikes. Chain continually jumps off the front sprocket.

    So I think have closure on this. The chain was indeed too long, Halfords agreed (the missus didnt buy this from Halfords, just using them for a government free service voucher), they took a link out and played with the B tension screw, and now there is ALOT more tension, everything is working...

    Help! The Pedelec Law has got me thinking .

    Never said it did. I said it's a giveaway for a homebuild that is almost certainly illegal.

    Help! The Pedelec Law has got me thinking .

    Indeed, nothing will happen until something bad happens, someone on a petrol powered bycycle seriously injures someone on a pavement and the press run with illegal pushbike insured pedestrian. Already seeing this happening in my area, an influx of cheap Chinese e-scooters with no max limit, fat...

    Not a great start with e-bikes. Chain continually jumps off the front sprocket.

    Appears like too long a chain, got s government voucher, so it's booked in for a service at the local bikeshop, will mention the issue of the chain jumping, and the apparent lack of chain tension and see why conclusion they come to. Hopefully it's as simple as just removing a link. If so...

    Help! The Pedelec Law has got me thinking .

    Yes, if I was plod, it would be an easy spot. Wires cable ties to the frame, check, random brackets check... It's probably got Bafang on the motor casing...

    Help! The Pedelec Law has got me thinking .

    The police won't be randomly stopping rogue ebikes, they will have a targeted purge, a taskforce, along with PR for the press for future deterrent. They will be fully prepared will all the relevant regulations and information on how to check. Stickers won't fool them for a minute, they will know...

    Not a great start with e-bikes. Chain continually jumps off the front sprocket.

    Finally got round to measuring this today, and it's WAY out, measured at 4-5 links. (Shimano) How reliable/trusted is this method of measurement? Does it suit all models of bikes and ebikes across this board?

    That's their job. Innocent until proven guilty. Tell them where it is, and if they want to inspect it, they can do so. It's absolutely not your job to prove innocence. Avoid eBay stickers, if anything suggests guilt, it's these.
