well i,m impressed Eddie , if you can ride down the terrian shown in your photos at any sort of speed on your hardtail emtb without any issues then you are a far better mountain biker than i am. fair play to you. if i could do that i would stick with the hardtail emtb and save spending money...

Thanks for the replies I certainly hope things will get better as time goes on as folks have suggested As for hardtack emtbs I stand by my comments as far as the type of off road riding I do For non electric hard tails I am a big fan especially the new breed of plus bikes There is a big...

thanks for your reply Pete, You are correct my bike would be repaired out of warranty . the problem as you say is the cost. the point i,m making is that if something fairly minor and cheap to replace goes faulty inside the crank drive motor then the bike shops have not been given the...

i agree with you mike, e cycling is taking off but the general masses are going to dictate which direction its going in. if the crank drive european manufacturers don,t get something in place soon then these kind of bikes will only be for the folks who can afford to buy a new motor if anything...

spot on Flecc, this industry is still in its infancy regarding this issue

so i started this subject a while back . i haven,t been on here recently. i have however been researching full suspension e mtbs. i have a hardtail at the moment but for the weight etc of an emtb i think full sus is more suitable for any rough offroad. however in this research that involved demo...

that is a very nice bike Eddie i have also got a plus sized hardtail (non electric) it is amazing what these bikes can do , even compared to my old full susser 26 inch wheeled. the haibike got me back into mtb and i still use it but the plus bike is also loads of fun. cleaning the non e bike is...

thanks. it was dirt on the connections . it is now working. this forum has been invaluable yet again as i could not find info on the error codes when i did a search

Thank you Chris. Unfortunately I don't have a manual so this info is very useful. I will check this out.

last september my haibike sduro with yamaha motor had a complete power failure which resulted in having to replace the motor. it has happened again with a slight difference. this time the code Er 15 flashed on the screen and the bike stopped working . then the screen switched off. when i...

With Bosch middrive, most LBS should be able replace motor easily enough plus Bosch provide diagnostic tools. Parts are easily to come by, its only drive, speed sensor, display and assist button module (combined in case of Purion). i am still not sure if this means a total motor replacement...

thanks Trevormonty i did not know that any bosch LBS supporting bosch drive can fix your bike. So that should speed up the time to get a bike fixed in the case of bosch. If the LBS diagnosed the fault as being in the controller or some other component which is within the motor unit would...

thanks everyone looks like there is a good choice of bikes and kits that are suitable. it is good when the solution to a problem is not the most expensive one !

those folks who have read my posts about out of warranty ebikes and the time it may take to resolve a fault will understand my question, which is ; does anyone know of an ebike that, can used for everyday transport ...

well thats something else that i didn,t know. getting too complex now when something goes wrong. i get asked by workmates and friends about my bikes. some are seriously interested in getting one but i don,t know what to recommend now. i suppose this is a question i should ask in the relevant...

i am sorry to hear you also have a problem Trampus. it is a real problem with some ebikes that the controller is in with the motor. i was thinking about upgrading my hardtail to a full sus but i have now changed my mind. i am reluctant to spend thousands on a product that may cost me a lot of...

i am not sure which bike you have but on the yamaha if you turn the front chainring (sprocket) backwards by hand then the chain will move . not as easy as turning the cranks i,ll admit but it does work..

the shop i bought my bike from did all they could to resolve the problem so i,m not blaming them in any way. the point is they have not been trained to do as much as i,m sure they would have liked. i now understand that the policy on warranty motors is just to swap them if they have a...

thanks woosh, this kind of sums it up. all your eggs are in one basket with my type of bike. it does make sense to have all components separate. i would gladly have paid £50 to have my bike sorted . if this was the case with my bike then it was a VERY expensive fix. please don,t take offence...

that is very impressive that ktm would have a very quick turn around (48 hours). It seems that if the warranty runs out there is still a problem. In my case there was a complete failure of the system. This was diagnosed as coming from the motor. It could have been something very simple and...
