haibikes to Riese and muller

[theloafer]

not long back from York, https://www.electricbikesales.co.uk/ went to try a riese and muller stepthrough for Karon....as the Haibike that I got for her back in Jan .. she just was not comfortable and was not really enjoying her riding. despite getting the small xs model.
she loved the Riese & Muller Nevo https://www.r-m.de/en-gb/models/nevo-gt/ it was so much better for her ...also come`s in 43cm and 26 wheel which is a plus, to dam wet for a test run but going back in the new year for that, just need to choose between cassette & derailleur and chain .. which I am used to (In case of problems on the road) or the Nuvinci a belt drive

also while she was looking I think I have fallen in love with their charger ....poss could end up a very expensive day out .. lol

Great to hear that you loved the bikes and the new Nevo with an internal battery has been a real hit worldwide. The Nuvinci (or Enviolo as it is now called) is a really great no maintenance bike, one you can ride in any weather an just stick in the garage without having to clean and lubricate the chain. I have a big test fleet in the UK in you want to see or try any other bikes in the range (and if I don't have it sure I can point you to a dealer that does). Happy riding.

finally got back down to York https://www.electricbikesales.co.uk/ for our test rides ... for me it was the Supercharger GX rohloff midnight blue ....and for my partner after her problems with her haibikes(getting on and off) she picked the Nevo GH vario red and with 26" wheels and also the dual battery ....here poss the middle-end march.... expensive day out but still cant wait ...my partner is still in shock

Ohh, how I envy you the Supercharger I'm drooling on the same bike, dual battery with Nyon, into the gravel forest road with a tent and a fishing rod. Sadly the price is a bit high. In Norway, converted to GBP- 6835.
But should it become a reality, what size did you choose, with your height and inseam length?

The Supercharger is great, just be sure to test ride the size that you're looking at buying rather than relying on R&M's size recommendations.
