Again, those are the terms of anything used that is "premium". It isn't always costly to fix stuff on a bosch bike, and it should be easier to find a dealer that you like with bosch since they have arguably the largest network of deales in the UK compared to other ebike motors. Yes, only dealers can exchange motors. If the electronics develop a fault the bikes aren't scrap as everything is replaceable by a dealer or serviced by a dealer. All bosch dealers are fully supported by bosch to fix any problems that the bike may have. So then it wouldn't matter what the price I put it at, because it will always be too expensive to fix.

Perhaps my wording is wrong, but the follow up to that is I don't ride it as much. I didn't mean to say the bike is a good condition, in fact I point out all the flaws of the bike. For me, damage is structural, I don't consider scratches to impact the way it rides. But again, I'm not hiding the condition of the bike. He didn't point that out. And sure I would have changed it had he said that. I will definitely rethink my sale.

Fair enough, he doesn't come off as an experienced bike owner. His mannerism is very troll like. I would question his knowledge on bosch ebikes as he can't seem to tell the difference between the active line and performance cx line. He also seem to have comapred a full suspension trek non-ebike to mine. I'll excuse the fact he picked a womens powerfly sport as the other link he provided, but I would also argue that his valuation is off, he said under £1k but the one example he showed went for closer to what I'm asking. I don't really understand what you mea. By warranties bosch dongle bikes?

Thats true, but those are the consequences for buying used unfortunately. Which is why its a lot cheaper than a new one spec wise. Its also cheaper than the one currently on sale on ebay that again isn't arguably as well speced. Then SW linked one trek powerfly sport that went for 1300, that was considerably worse spec. SW also linked the cube that is brand new but again is worse spec. So I fail to see his point. The bike I'm selling is used, I think it is quite fairly priced compared to what is on sale currently on ebay and what has been previously sold. He is also really rude which just sucks, not really the experience you would want from a community.

You're a troll and dumb. The first went for nearly £1300, is worse spec, and proves that you can't value my bike..... And the second is not a ebike.... Mate

Okie dokie. You're either pretty bad at valuation, a troll, or just a mean person? The market value seems to be on my side, here is a similare used bike to my bike for anyone else who is wondering if I'm selling it for to much: https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F283704917534 I hope you cheer up for Christmas!

Which one? You put a link to one that would be several spec below. So I assume you're not referring to that one? And why are you such a miserable person?

I mean, it isnt an equivalent to the one I'm selling? That is a second battery that is available for sale. Just to clarify for anyone wondering, I also have a second ebike that I daily commute on. This is slightly better drivetrain than mine with an XT set up, and a 500wh battery: https://m.bikester.co.uk/cube-reaction-hybrid-race-500-blackred-1065752.html Quite a rude aren't you? Have your grinch mode on?

Selling my unused Trek powerfly, bought earlier in the year and I just don't use it that much compared to my other bikes unfortunately. Specs are as follows: - Large Trek Powerfly Sport Grey (it has been used, so it isn't in perfect condition, but no damage to the frame apart from some scratches) - Deore drive train 10sp 42T (the switch to turn on the clutch has some damage but can still be turned on or off) - Tektro brakes - RSP dropper seat post - Rockshox Judy air fork - Halo front hub boost - Bontrager rear hub boost - Bontrager pro stem - Lighter tioga handlebars - 400wh battery (around 70 cycles at the moment) - Bosch CX pro motor at just under 600 miles - 2amp charger - 2 keys extras that are included: - Full mudguard set (the front mudguard won't work without adapters) - Extra set of conti tyres that are good for commuting - Pannier rack with a folding lock that is silver rated - Flat pedals Looking for £1500 ovno The bike is in London, can bet delivered locally, or at a cost depending on distance Second 400wh battery is available at an extra £250, however this one is around 130 cycles Changed my mind, not selling it on here anylonger. However, happy to continue the discussion.

Just wondering, was your bike still under warranty? and if so, did you remove the seals on the torx screws to get to the bearings?

We have it set up for the first two free services (the first free after a month of purchase, and second free six months from purchase) for our customers. Then every 3 months or so. It's nice to see the bike come back in and we do a quick check to make sure it is running fine (pumping tyres, lube etc) and update the software. Since they bought the bike from us it is all free anyways and helps build the relationship. It is a really useful tool for dealers I think. The most recent case for me, the customer has been running with pretty much no pads in the brake and started to damage his rotors! Not all people who ride ebikes are enthusiast like people on here and just use it for a mode of transport, which means they don't take as good care of their bike as they should.

The only reason I have ever had anyone justify that ebikes are cheating is because cycling is meant to be hard work. For me, my ebike replaced my car in London, it isn't a training bike where I'm trying actively to get fit. It is my mode of transport, I'm not racing in the morning to work against all the road bikers who has the be first at the lights. Look at the Dutch, they don't justify riding a ebike like we have to here.

This is how all bike manufactures operate unfortunately. Madison is in charge of all shimano warranties in the UK, and at times they can be really slow. Merida themselves don't deal with any warranties that isn't their own frame or proprietary parts. I think the bike shop did a good job for you as well, and they were only at the mercy of the supplier.

Looks like you're meant to run the outer cable from the shifter all the way to that stopping point shown in the picture for the front mech. Likewise for the rear mech, it looks as if it just meant to be one long piece of outer cable.

I have an electra townie with a bosch motor. The step through model, been a lot of fun commuting with it in the last 10 months
