    Clacking noise - Kalkhoff Impulse 2 motor

    Haibike xduro 2015 27.5 buy, any good?

    the 2016 500 wh battery has 25% more range not more power,the motor on the haibike urban is powerful enough and i ride mainly on the road with a little towpath and smooth trails,it has rigid forks.

    chain or belt drive?

    riding the integrale s11 with the carbon belt drive was a surreal experience after only ever having chain drives,silent transmission of power with almost no motor noise and it was in the highest power mode,maybe in the future more and more e-bikes will be fitted with belts or even shaft drive.
