Remember he was talking about E mountain bikes, not road/commuter bikes. The current speed limit cut off is pretty irrelevant off road, but power and how it is delivered is relevant on technical steep climbs. Downhill again the cut off speed and even the need for any assistance at all is...

Haibike sDuro HardSeven SL 2015 Yamaha 10 year Update. Taken today with the new transmission and front wheel in evidence. View from the other side Transmission I said in my 9 year update which I posted on March the 29th 2024 that," I fitted a new transmission on the 17th of March 2023...

Commuting on the Road with no big hills would suit a cadence sensor rear hub motored bike. I had both a rear hub Chinese derived bike and a Haibike hardtail Yamaha motored crank drive bike and for road riding the simple rear hub bike was superior. The crank drive mountain bike came in to its...

Sorry, I should have said, Spa is where I got it, and have bought quite a few things from them.

You do not need to spend £35 for a Schwalbe “puncture-proof” tire . When I bought a new one recently {04 10 2024} it cost me £13 plus delivery postage for a Land Cruiser Plus. Just shop around.

My last crash, I've had a few, was on the platform of a railway station. Now retired and armed with my free travel pass after a 12 year last career spell working for The Railway, I am in the habit of catching the train from my Town with no Lidl, to the next bigger Town nearby, doing a circuit...

I have been a bit slow to pick up on your accident soundwave. Sounds quite a fall. I hope you start to feel a bit better soon.

Probably where you bought the bike is the first place to chat to. Mine replaced my Yamaha motor right at the end of the two year warranty. They were very good. Once outside the warranty period Peter at what used to be called Performance Line Bearings is very good, and if he fixes it, it will be...
