    Haibike sDuro HardSeven 5.0 2019 Yamaha (delimited) vs QWIC MD11 PERFORMANCE 28MPH SPEED PEDELEC

    The Haibike would have a 250w Yamaha motor but I would delimit its speed limit of 15.5 mph. I am comparing it to aQWIC MD11 bike with a 540w Brose mid mounted engine. This one VS This one Just wondering what people would think is a better ride? Is a more powerful motor going to confer...

    Which dongle tuner would you recommend for the Yamaha Haibike?

    That is perfect. Thnx! How is this? Apparently they are popular bikes fitted with motors that can go up to 28mph or even 40mph. I'm going to get my CBT, as all it requires is attending a course. Do you think it would be better to get one of these beasts with a 500w motor, that can go up to...

    Have you ever heard of pedalease? seems pretty good I didn't realise you run a bike shop. Maybe I could come down to it sometime on the weekend. The pedalease bikes can be put into UK road mode or private mode, to go extra fast.

    Do you know if the battery can be disconnected? I am just wondering if I want that feature to charge it in the office, if I need to.

    Yeah, I believe I am going to get a Haibike. Probably one of the hybrid ones or EMBs. They look fantastic. Pretty excited about it!

    Tried 4 ebikes recently - Van Moof, Haibike, Lime e bike, Uber e bike - only liked one

    Most people commuting are riding ebikes to make the journey easier and faster. Not only for hills or difficult parts. I think a casual glance at the internet confirms this. I think common sense would also say this. Same goes for the thousands upon thousands of ebike riders in London, where...

    YOure probably right. I want something better. I am looking at haibikes. Their mountain bikes looks awesome. That is a seriously sweet bike. The new XDuro line is really nice.

    It might be crap, but it was also fast. Much faster than the Lime e bike and Van Moof. The haibike not sure, that was pretty good too. But this cheap chinese bike was zippy and fast. It felt very light as well.

    Yeah, I wanna dongle it. I won't do anything crazy, but I think I might need just a bit of an extra kick after test riding some bikes. Will test drive some eMTBs to see if they can do the job of a commute.

    This bike does seem awesome. Love how it looks as well. The best looking bikes are mostly MTBs. So are these bikes cool to commute with? How will this be for the commute? my commute is mostly flat, and mostly roads.

    Yea man thats the one. It felt light and mauneverable. Its very fast and gives you a big kick. Its purely assisted you can't change how much juice it gives you, but it was really great, imo. I have only ridden 4 e bikes, and it was the best ride of them all. I'll have to call tomorrow to find...

    I actually do. Like otherwise you really can't use it can you? Like if I wanted to bike down to central london to catch a movie, it just would be a terrible idea to use your electric bike right? Its a shame one can't use it that freely even if you lock it down. I have test rode some bikes...

    Tried 4 ebikes recently - Van Moof, Haibike, Lime e bike, Uber e bike - only liked one

    So recently I test drove two e bikes from stores the Van Moff and a Haibike. I also have tried two dockless e bikes you can rent. I only was impressed by one of the, the one that has made me want to get an ebike. The Uber e bike, Jump Bike. The Van Moof was not impressive. Didn't feel...

    Won't a 350w motor pull one up hills far better? Possible to get that in a uk bike, but obvs with the speed limiter?

    Very confused - Looking for an electric bike

    I don't know why I got it in my head, that a 350w motor with a speed limit of 20mph would be a much better thing. But I guess its not really necessary. Is it a dumb idea to buy a EMTB for commuting in London? Those look very nice. Nice, i may pick one of them up.

    Oh wow. I see Haibike or Bosch can be tuned. I just want to tune it to be a bit faster. Does tuning work well and easily? The shipping cost from America would actually not be that bad. The tuning stuff would only be a bit more expensive. But if it works well, that may solve my issues. Are...

    Ahhh, okay, but do they actually care if you order one from America? What is massively overspecced then? Which bikes I mean. I would love a light bike, that also has a powerful fast motor. If I did order it from America, would anyone check that? My commute is quite flat.
