    YosePower eBay kit

    Last weekend I converted a Dawes step-thru bike using a £420 YosePower kit. It was a comprehensive kit, including a front light and an enclosed BB sensor, rather than the magnetic disk type. Due to frame limitations, it came with a rear rack-mounted battery. All in all, it was a simple...

    Oxygen restoration

    I've got an Oxygen MTB that's sitting gathering dust because the electrics gave up the ghost. The motor is fine and the bike was thoroughly serviced before it packed up. It'll need the entire electric system replacing, including the battery. What does the panel recommend? I won't replace with...

    Help! Frame battery without bottle cage screw holes

    I'm helping a mate convert his wife's bike. It's half decent and worth converting, but it has no bottle cage screw holes on its step-through frame. I'm trying to avoid a rack-mounted battery, as it already has a rack. Is there a solution that will safely allow me to mount a 13ah battery on an...

    Spare Wheels for my Haibike

    I realised the other day that my commuter tyres weren't up to the job of keeping me stable on slippery bridleways and towpaths. I felt distinctly unsafe in places. The Fullseven 4 came with knobblies, but I replaced them for smoother treaded ones, as most of my route is on roads. I can't be...

    Yamaha PW-ST Chainring

    I want to increase the gearing on my Haibike that has the Yamaha PW-ST motor. Ideally, I'd like a 42t ring. I can't seem to find a supplier, so does anyone know of a place selling one? I'm aware of the need to lengthen the chain or reduce the largest cassette ring. TIA

    Review EAV Quad Cargo

    I used one at work today. I really wanted to like it, but I'm sorry to say I really didn't. It's not really suitable for the role it'd be used for. Far too big and expensive. It's what happens when you ask for a cargo bike and the upper echelons get involved without consulting the people who...

    Yamaha PW Series ST Settings

    I'm really happy with my Haibike MTB Fullseven 4. However, I seem to have got it set to an automatic power setting that alters power to suit the needs of the terrain. All well and good, if that's your cup of tea, but I prefer to set things myself, as the auto function has it on max power too...

    Just bought a Speedbox 2.0

    My Haibike Fullseven 4 was screaming out for more power, so I treated myself to a Speedbox yesterday and I'm awaiting its arrival. I've replaced the knobblies with Scwalbe Huricanes to add to the speed, hopefully. My potential commute is 17 miles, so I need more than 15.5mph on the long bits of...

    Yamaha PWSeries ST settings

    I was wondering how I can access the settings on my Haibike Fullseven 4's Yamaha system to have a look at the various settings. There's not much online, so does anyone have any ideas?

    Haibike Fullseven 4

    These are my initial thoughts after receiving my bike and a longish ride home on it yesterday. I'll update the thread as I get more experience of it. I paid <£2200 'almost new' from Tredz, which is at least £800 below the new price, but it really is as good as new in appearance, at least. The...

    Tredz Nearly New Sale

    I was thinking of going down the Cyclescheme route at work to get a new bike, but was a little disappointed in the choices available at the 2000 Pound ceiling. At the weekend, whilst researching the options, I looked at the Tredz site and saw a few Cube & Haibikes in their Nearly New sale. I...

    For Sale Bosch Powerpack 300 battery

    Bought off Fleabay as back up for my 500. Has since sat mostly unused. In decent nick, but aesthetically 'interesting'. £175 + p+p.
