You could go that route but dumping current into system to compensate for high gears will affect range and probably longevity of unit.?? .. Its also going beyond "pedelec" definition... But lots do. Good luck. Keep us informed.

I, d agree with above. Using mid drive on single speed is negating choice of mid drive straight away. It's main benefit is giving motor access to same range of gear as rider. On single speed, you may aswell spend less money and fit hub drive.??? Other thing to consider is with TD72 and a decent...

The nut holding the handle bars is first thing to upgrade.I, d start there in video. It's been my experience that most, if not all, types of brakes are adequate if properly maintained. Suspect what we are paying for is feel and progressive braking with high end stuff. Hydraulic disc brakes are...

Might get busy now, I sense an argument starting. I liked his choice.. To which I, d add Breaking Bad (fantastic) Ozark (very good) Peaky Blinders. Superb. Didn't like any of yours but that's life. Avatar was incredibly terrible. IMHO.

Once bikes are powered I, m not convinced a couple of kg is going to be noticed. Yep, pedalling without power will obviously benefit. My current Giant is around 3kg heavier than Haibike, once underway its irrelevant. Only time I notice its heavier is when hanging it on wall after rides, when I...

It's not popular because you can't argue on it. Guerney will disagree of course.

Having used a dongle for a short while (device that slows speed sensor pulses to make bike think it's going slower than it is, and hence give power to much higher speeds) there are a couple of issues besides illegality that put me off "derestricting" bike. Firstly your displayed mileage...

I agree about selling stuff at moment. But wait a while, when new stuff has all gone, old and cheap stuff is worn out. Haibike are only discounted because they aren't selling, and what doesn't sell this year won't be made next. At that point decent, quality second hand stuff will be at a...

Plenty of kids I taught from council estates had had m3s..(for a few days) They just hadn't paid for them. At the height of the car borrowing pandemic (early 90s) I taught one young man who assured me he could get in and start any car in under 20 seconds. Astra GTE, SRi, Escort Turbo, XR3i were...

I agree against £12k levo but not the £3k Haibike.. Don't think the levo is actually any better than the (next up) Haibike. Agree Re M3 aswell.Its good value for money when you actually examine what you are getting for your cash. It isn't cheap but represents good value, which is exactly the...

I, m not sure about that, Windsurf sails broke the £1000 mark a good while ago and many boards are now well in excess of £2k. (for around 6kg of polystyrene, 1kg of epoxy/carbon and and another kg or so of skeg/mast boxes and footstraps.) It's same old story with marketing. Stuff isn't priced...

Yep, I agree with that. Besidesd, I can't see Haibike CF6 ever selling for less than £3k and likewise a CF12 for under £4k whatever happens and no matter how many are sat in Wharehouses. I, d buy one tommorow if they had required size. On a completely different issue.. We keep getting told how...

Fantastic video BTW sound wave. Wonder how many bikes he went through??

I, ve been along to Decathlon and had a good look at their ebikes and popped into my local dealer this morning (to pick up a dropper post) and had a good look at mentioned Haibike. At £3k the one mentioned is best value of the lot. How they are doing it at that price I can't figure. They also...

Really like the bike. Definitely faster than Haibike. Had a great ride today but no readout on display. Used GPS watch for stats. Just tried to load "upgrades" says won't load to app, contact dealer. Phoned dealer, they say try down loading upgrades.. Looks like I, ll be taking it back again. I...

For info... Got Giant back yesterday after yet another front bearing/spindle/hub issue, which seems resolved for the time being. Tried to use bike, Giant Ride App (which you use for display on bike) insisted it needs updating, refuses to upload and won't work without it.. I can use bike, without...

I, d recommend Haibike. Bought a hard 7 five years ago and it's been fantastic. Motor was rebuilt about a year ago (Peter at Performance line bearings) and its as good as new. Bought a Giant Fathom when Haibike was making noises (prior to rebuild) and without doubt that is more powerful (but...

Humpty Dumpty a politician? Along lines of Starmer I guess so.

Starmer in politics?Ever? Are you sure?
