    Having a nose, narrowing it down

    I think you buy a ton of marketing. For range, reliability, intstant power and value Yamaha is tough to beat. If you like long chainstay Giant is worth a test. Haibike should be on your list. Their enduro 2.0 is a steal but not for me too much suspension. They have many models with Yamaha. I...

    Norco sight

    I am in Quebec, Canada and what he described is similar to my Yamaha 2017. There is no suddent lights off more like a dimmer. With a backwind i might sustain 34kms or more but i guess gravity is helping me a bit. Often going to the trails or pedaling my way back i am at 29-31 km/h our legal cut...

    Would you ride it? Turbo Creo SL with all new motor

    Some lazy guy with a car thinks i am fat, injured, old because i recently bought an Ebike. He is not alone. I know Ecars are dumb. Most electricity is not clean so there is 0 improvement. Still traffic jams. Still 1 person/car over 90% of the time. Still parking problems. Still weapons giving a...

    Would you ride it? Turbo Creo SL with all new motor

    Maybe 4 years ago i looked at legal max(i am in Quebec) and i do not remember that. Is it new? In the majority of states? I had in mind that 20mph was quite universal in north america. So even an e-mountain would be legal up to 28 when on road?

    Would you ride it? Turbo Creo SL with all new motor

    Maybe the proper question is when you buy, does it include 1, 2, 3, 4 motors? When in the shop do u get a replacement bike? Is the new cool-aid better? or is it bitter?

    2020 Specialized levo/kenevo rumors?

    I like the look but in Canada i could only use it 7 months so the components are irrelevent. With our taxes it would be allmost 10,000$ and impossible to resell anything close to a decent amount. How much do you think you will be able to get for it in 12 months? 24 months?

    Broke my 2019 Levo motor today

    In many areas around the world selling bikes is a season thing. Shops have problems keeping staff so they do good stuff and other stuff, not realy trustable. Well around Montreal, Quebec i am not the only one, opening my SRAM 11 S shifter they could not put it back so they gave me a free rental...

    2.8in Tyres on the E-Sommet?

    Well over the last 3 years my 3 main bikes have been different but similar. For snow, winter fun 26x4.8 on 90 mm studded, maximum float + maximum grip for maximum hours riding. I was on 29x2.3 and thiny rims for rollover and speed and those 2 fit well for what i do. Last 3 months on 27.5x3.0/2.8...

    2.8in Tyres on the E-Sommet?

    Here in Quebec dry days(i mean the trails) pretty much any decent tire is OK but a set up with better grip can be appreciated for wet roots sometimes just early there is dew. I feel the difference like climbing out of the saddle. Also when i stall/stop i can restart without putting a foot down...

    Yamaha PW Motor won't switch on

    Do you have a removable display? If i remove mine it will not work so maybe try removing it and reinstalling it. If needed clean the receiver and the backside to assure proper contact. If it was resolve, how?

    Yamaha users please help all readers by sharing your feedback

    I feel like you. We just select less assist when we begin using a Yamaha and soon we know what the assist response is. To me i use max assist to pedal to the trails and back. In the trails the next lower level(intermediate). I do not feel the need to play with the assist. Other than that i just...

    Hey, cant chose what brand/model

    If with their Ebikes Specialized is selling a product 70% ready roduct why should i pay 115% ??? It just makes no sense. You want to please Emountain bikers the plan is easy: - reliable - good range - decent price - decent weight - decent noise level the noise just suggest we are behind and we...

    Someone nicked my bike. Help me choose a new one? - I need HUGE (really)

    just pop it up a little to clear obsticles, i am not strong but i would say 10 cm most the times, sometimes 15-20 or by mistake too much to deal with sidewalk, logs, rocks. I demoed shorter ones like Norco and liked it for tight turns. Also my Yamaha has instant power so pushing on any pedal the...

    Someone nicked my bike. Help me choose a new one? - I need HUGE (really)

    It can be surprising. My chain stay is 460 and i can pop my front on demand. Maybe it is due to how i set up my cockpit? But i would not go any longer than 460. Marin offers 2 HT(Shimano) but i love my Yamaha Haibike 120 HT with 40 rims and 3.0/2.8x27.5, lots of grip for climbing.

    Decision time - and the outcome is...

    I was talking to my LBS manager and he told me Giant training was real short. Unbolt that thing and ship it to us. It seems Shimano is similar.
