Ahem.. Haibike + Tuning Dongle = Success Full Crank Drive eMTB's starting at £1850! Oooops did I think out loud? ;) Martin

That would be me... Providing you are one of my eBike customers of course :P

Exactly the reason I concentrate my time / service on our existing client base. Thanks Phill :)

& herein lies a problem. I did help out Phill. Shortly after I became inundated with calls from other LBSs who wanted advice & also some who expected me to fix their warranty problems! In fact Scott actually told their dealer base to contact me for any warranty issues arising with Scott eBikes...

Hi Bikesman, Look forward to your call. Never had an issue with warranty with the dongle installed. Can discuss in more detail over the phone - 01252 279 279 I am still working on the Yamaha v Bosch comparison, been writing it all week, probably got a few more hours on it till it goes live...

Hi Bikesman, Just to clarify the 'xDuro' HardSeven uses the Bosch system. Its the 'sDuro' Hardseven that uses the Yamaha system. Why not look at the hardseven here? It fits within your budget, we are able to 'dongle' it and it also available in a range of sizes to suit. I will be doing a...

Hi Rob, I found it to not be a problem, both on and off road.. Heard many say that Eco mode on Bosch does next to nothing before. Although I do disagree with this as I use Eco quite often. The 3 modes are simple. Lets call it 4 modes of course including Off ;) Probably worth giving it a bash...

***WOW THREAD HIJACK ALERT*** Col - Worth removing these and making a new thread for your range? Seeing as the bikes above bear no resemblance to Haibike or Yamaha? Can't remember the last time we hijacked a KTM post.. ;)

Hi, Just to eliterate, in response to your other thread, when riding the prototype Yamaha system 2 weeks ago in germany I found it to cut out at approx 15.5mph but it did fade off to about 17.5mph until the power was noticeably not assisting. It did seem to help keep topping up and just over...

Hi, Yes it is cheaper, it also comes up a lot lighter, has better spec brakes and is of course crank drive over a hub. Can I ask is the sDuro Cross a bike you wish to purchase? Regards Martin

Hi Michael, We won't be doing the Cross. The trekking and eMTB's are far more popular. Its also very similar price to both the Trekking RC and the HardNine RC which are more popular bikes and obviously the Trekking comes equipped for similar money. Martin

Hi Dave, Full Yamaha reviews now live on my blog. Happy reading. Martin

Hi Guys, All the new Haibike sDuro 2015 electric bikes are now live on our site to view the full pricing and specifications. The new sDuro Haibike electric bikes are focussed on the younger generation using the new Yamaha eBike system and come in at a lower price point for more price savvy...

Do not ride this bike with the rear wheel having that much play in it!.. Make sure it is the rear wheel and not the pivot bolts that hold this play, only reason I mention as I know previously that you didn't have them done up correctly and lost a bolt. This needs to be taken to a dealer and...

Don't use copper grease! But there will be enough 'spare' grease built up around the top of the motor pinion pulley to re-use on the floating washer. Martin

Hi, Welcome to the Forum. Although a little over budget, the Raleigh Motus is a strong reliable contender that ticks all the boxes? View it here. If you need any further info please feel free to get in touch, or visit us to discuss the bikes in full. Regards Martin

Hi Gringo, As suggested in the article I will do a full comparison review shortly. Martin

Yes this is very tight! This is what it states in my dealer book. Maybe on decent brand new bolts, but still, very much too tight! "Very tight" is a good way forward ;) Martin
