    2018 Powerfly 8 LT

    That bike sounds nice! I'm curious as to how it looks ;) The bosch system is awesome indeed, and like you i'm not afraid of the bearing problem. Quick tip, get a crank puller, a bosch spider tool and a bearing service kit. Change out the grease regularly based on use, should last a long time.

    Uncorking the Turbo Levo motor.

    Yeah, the thing is you can tell yourself you are only gonna do it sometimes, or 25 km/h is fast enough but the truth is now you know how your, and every other ebike, should feel, riding with the limiter on is never gonna feel the same. :)

    Creaky Praxis cranks on 2017 Levo comp

    Last ditch attempt, change out all the offending nuts and bolts, maybe the threads are just slightly damaged allowing for movement.

    Haibike HardSeven/Nine Carbon 8.0 for €2.600?

    If you want a full suspension in the future i would go for it now, you will only lose money trying to sell a secondhand bike later. For me 90% of riding is commuting or biking around town, to me that is where a hardtail really shines. I run a second set of wheels with Schwalbe G-One Speed tires...

    Comparing mid drive motors - Bosch vs Panasonic vs Shimano

    Very cool vid! Nice to see some testing done. So it seems Bosch CX is the most powerfull but a bit uncivilised (maybe thats why i like it so much) Shimano is definetely the smoothest and Panasonic a good allrounder. Seems to comply with most of the reviews i've read. Keep up the good work!

    Which dropper post?

    XLC i've read less favorable reports on. They do come stock on some bikes but do not seem to last from what i've read.

    E MTB as only bike

    Mine is my do it all bike, i got a second set of wheels with smooth tires for commuting, makes a lot of difference. EMTB's can be really comfy on the road and with the motor assist it is just so much fun.

    Hard tail vs Full suspension EMTB?

    And besides it really does not matter wether or not we think a hardtail or fully is better, this thread is about Knobby and his new bike, so again, good looking bike Knobby! Have fun with it!

    Haibike Sduro Full Fat Six Riding Reports

    It is normal for cables to stretch a little during their first few times of operation, perhaps they need a turn tighter. And like eFat says, battery's just have decreasing capacity over time. Heavely dependant on use. Do you always drain your battery fully until the bike shuts off, park it in...

    Haibike Sduro Full Fat Six Riding Reports

    It looks like the outer cable is slighly damaged. You, or a local bike shop could just shorten it a little bit and you will be fine. No worries.

    Shorter Crank Arms on Levo / Kenevo?

    I'm just wondering how shorter cranks cause higher cadence? Because the shorter arm transfers less power so you need a lower gear? If the gear stays the same cadence should stay the same.

    My 2018 Haibike Hardnine 7.0

    I found your thread, love the colors on your bike man! Really nice color scheme. The fender is attached to the original mudguard, i took some cube fenders, sliced them in two, and attached them to the mini mudguard that came with the bike. In that way i could use the original mounting points...

    The haters!!!!

    I have read claims by people that emtb riders knocked other people of their bikes to get them out of the way because they were faster. Those same people simultainiously complained emtb riders have no skill. It seems people are grasping at straws to find reasons to dislike ebikes. I'm just...
