    One of those rides.

    After todays 34 mile mtb event, the bike needs cleaning again! Write up to follow, but it didn't end well for me, and I was right about the fact that Nyon has no place on an e-mtb. I also now need a new helmet after having the peak torn off in a crash, and other damage to it. I'm now off to bed...

    One of those rides.

    I've been trying to get out at least four evenings/nights a week, plus one day time ride a week, but sadly things haven't quite been going to plan, so it's been more like three times a week. It can be tough trying to motivate yourself to ride after having spent all day working outside, then...

    Stock or Haibike

    They appear to be two very different bike choices. If I'm correct, one being hub drive and road biased, and the other Mid drive and off road biased. Just out of interest, what use do you have in mind for the bike? Perhaps a trekking style might be a better option, and also possibly cheaper...

    Statement from Bosch in relation to Classic line motors

    That has just made my day. Just to clarify Martin, are you saying that you are saying that you are the UK office for Bosch? A yes or no answer will do.

    One of those rides.

    Mountainsport, I don't own a pressure washer, and to be honest I'm not a fan of them for washing bikes. Just done a quick search and have come up with the following two posts. :) http://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/threads/how-many-people-are-using-there-e-bike-off-road.15780/page-20#post-248060...

    One of those rides.

    In a very good way. :) Work fell through again today so rather than waste the day I popped out and put in an unintended 33miles of mainly off road riding. As usual things were very wet and muddy, but the ride looks as though it could have potentially created a couple more e-bike users. I was...

    real off roader?

    Looking back through rose tinted glasses, weren't they also the best. :) Society has really changed for the worse. As kids, we would make an almost daily trip to the local dump/tip to see what if any bikes had been dumped. From there we would just cobble together what ever worked, and it was...

    Sondors bike crowdfunding on indiegogo

    Didn't realise that was still there.:oops: You mean you don't know what PBCT is? Shame on you, it's Professional Battery Combination Technology :D .

    Sondors bike crowdfunding on indiegogo

    Only 20 miles from me door to door, and I've never even heard of them.:oops:

    Tow bar bike carriers

    I'm another who has a Thule 928 Euro Classic G6 LED. I have only just recently bought it from a company that was selling them on Ebay for £220.00 delivered. I haven't used it yet, as we don't even have a tow bar fitted, but figured that at that price it was worth buying. If it helps, this was...

    real off roader?

    I guess that it depends on whether you want a mid drive system or a hub drive system. If it's a mid drive then perhaps the Macina Race plus, as already mentioned. http://www.shop.flidistribution.co.uk/p/2015-ktm-macina-race-plus?pp=12 Or the KTM Macina Action Plus...

    Helmet camera recommendations please

    How many people are using there e-bike off-road?

    Had another very quick play with the SJ4000 this morning. Must remember to check the console display before setting off. The Nyon display is a pain in backside for this. Also need to remember to check the lense whilst riding. The mount height and camera settings still aren't quite there yet...

    Feeling Guilty

    Harsh but fair. ;)

    Regenerative Braking.

    I presume that the system wouldn't have allowed for pedalling in a non assist mode? I have a golf buggy that I use as a wheelbarrow on jobs, and that has an electronic brake. I keep meaning to remove the damn thing as it's a pain in the backside. It over compensates, and acts even harsher as...

    You could have stopped right there. That made me smile, and say's it all. :) Thanks for an enjoyable read. :) .

    Raleigh Motus question re paintwork

    If it is the same as my old 2013 Haibike/Raleigh then it's dreadful. The welding in the bottom bracket area was so rough that there were pockets where the paint hadn't gone into, and the wheel set felt and looked as though there was grit and dust left on the rims prior to being painted. The...

    Haibike Trekking 2015

    Thanks for the enjoyable review Wissy, just a shame that you have had so much seemingly bad luck in one hit. Hopefully that'll be the last of it for you. :) I seem recall your thread about the rear mech hanger, and it's good to hear that you got it sorted. I can imagine that the bridge...

    Cameras and then....?

    Perhaps I'm wrong, but I thought that YouTube gave you the option of keeping the video private etc.
