Martin posted about adopting Haibike on 4th December, and then offered to answer questions about them in another post 2nd January. That second post ran to two web pages containing 63 posts and was on the front page of the forum for over nine days.For weeks I was trying to source a Haibike and day after making final decision you appeared from nowhere....argh!!!!!
never noticed any posts to be honest
Haha....well I suppose it makes a difference from driving paid up forum traders nuts with his excessive free advertising........to each their own irritationsMartin, you're driving me nuts. My pet hate is inappropriate use of the apostrophe, and I know I'm not the only one on this forum.
Your lesson for today:
The Haibikes are coming -correct
The Haibike's are coming - incorrect (and makes you look like an uneducated tw@t).
The apostrophe should only be used in the meaning of pertaining to or belonging to the Haibike as in:
The Haibike's gears are nice - means a particular Haibike has nice gears.
Note that the position of the apostrophe changes when there's more than one Haibike as in:
Haibikes' gears are nice, which means all Haibikes have nice gears.
One other possibility is when you abbreviate the word "is" as in : What's up?
So you could say:
The Haibike's on my driveway.
Sorry to have to point this out. I know we all make mistakes. You can make as many spelling mistakes or other grammatical errors as you like. They don't bother me at all.
It would appear that Just E Bikes took the hint following this thread http://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/electric-bicycles/13702-haibike-2013-models-now-online-justebikes.html#post166335Technically they have been around quite a while Just E Bikes used to be the only sellers and appear to already have had 2013 models since 4 February if their website is correct.
Wow Jesus Dave!Martin, you're driving me nuts. My pet hate is inappropriate use of the apostrophe, and I know I'm not the only one on this forum.

This could be related to following up enquiries we contacted them several times and heard nothing. Did not fill us with confidence so we went elsewhere. Look like nice bikes if spare parts are provided when needed I know one member of this forum had a bit of a nightmare. If I make it to Redbridge may well try one out! Sounds like you have had some fun test riding them.Hi there,
Yes this is how it 'appears' on the website,
However at the time just e-bikes announced this on their website I was in a meeting with the Haibike UK brand manager, who to his amazememt at that point in time had'nt confirmed any 2013 orders with just e-bikes..
I can confirm we are the first to recieve these models.
