Quite low I would imagine if it's nylon. Can't a Haibike dealer tell you? Surely a quick phone call or email to your local Raleigh/Haibike dealer should get conclusive responses?

I am becoming les and less inclined to buy a full sus ride. . I tended to assume that the rear would be like the front... just needs the occasional pump up!

Some full sus designs, all be they great to ride, strike me as a little fussy to own.
If you have a team of mechanics behind you that will strip the thing down after a race for instance then great, but your average Joe doesn't. Perhaps I'm missing out by sticking with my single pivot designs and hardtail, but I'm out on the trail, problem free and smiling from ear to ear [emoji3]

like everything with moving parts will need checking now and then just take 10 mins to check and tighten anything that is loose.

Pretty exclusive club, sales policy they've got then. What's that about?
Isn't that tantamount to bribery. Ok, not quite but kinda sucks.

After waiting forever on my Haibike. And poor communication from my dealer I finally got to my senses and bougt me another ebike.

I finally ended up with a Lapierre overvolt fs600. I first was in to Yamaha engine but the new Bosch performance line has really nice "grunt". So the Lapierre fs600 is with Bosch engine. 150mm travel Fox 34 fork and a Fox rear chock.

I have been ridden it about 100km so far and I really love it!! [emoji3]

This is going to be a nice summer [emoji846]

Lovely to see some mud on it already bebbe. Just as it should be. :)

You had more fun that I did today. My day was spent stripping, washing, drying, cleaning and detailing three bikes.

I liked the gull arm swingarm of the previous Overvolt, and wonder why they decided to change it. It offered the best and simplest chain clearance of any brand that uses the Bosch motor system.

Yes, there will be some cleaning[emoji57]

Dont know why they changed the swingarm? But I suppose the new one is a bit stiffer?

The old one is probably more quiet tough.
