I know a guy, who knew a guy with a haibike and yamaha motor that had it chipped. He uses the EXPW 80nm mode flat out for 3 hours straight (2 x 500wh batteries) and had no issues at all. He's been doing that a few times a month for over a year and not even a slight hiccup apparently. He's gone...
Reading this story I'm thinking YT are due a rebranding to just Y.
Y advertise something that isn't true (Shimano Service Centre comment)
Y not have a decent customer service process like other brands
Y build a bike brand and then trash it with this kind of customer experience
I'm sorry for...
Hi Folks,
I thought I'd just share my experience and possibly save someone some time and money.
I have a 2018 AllMTN 8.0 (yamaha & standard 2 x 10 Speed XT gearset with sunrace Cassette)
After about 300 miles I started to get grinding on steep climbs and just general noise and a larger clunk...
Hi Sparky,
I have use the method in this video for 3 years now and it works superbly for free.
I tweaked it slightly so instead of taping the magnet to the crank arm.
I bought a pack of 6mm x 3mm Cylinder Fridge Magnets of amazon and stuck one to end of the pedal spindle. This gives enough...
AllMTN 8.0 2018 getting pretty lairy. I snapped my previous 2016 Full FatSix last year and Haibike couldn't get a replacement rocker so they sent me a brand new bike. They also loaned me a bike whilst I was deciding. That's what I call service.
I reckon that would work too to be fair although I'm not sure oil would get past the wipers to lube the seals. Also I don't have the space or forward planning nature to turn my bike over an hour before a ride. The lube definitely sucks gunk out when you cycle the forks, and this stuff would just...
Get well soon Nick. You're a tough cookie by the sound of it. I dislocated my shoulder last year and was riding alone. Fortunately, it was a trail centre so loads of good Samaritans around to help. As I'm also a back country ski tourer, I spend a lot of time thinking about and trying to mitigate...
I use it on dropper, Forks and shock too. Just before loading the bike on the car. As well as lubing the chain. I cycle them few times, then when I get to the trail wipe it off. I find it helps draw the crap out of the seals from the previous ride and softens them, so less stiction. It might be...
There is a low light setting I noticed. Did you try that? Failing that, enable pro tools and increase the exposure a little. Not too much though as it will end up very blurry.
Just as an aside folks. If you're adding your location to the map I wouldn't place it directly on your street. A few years ago bike thieves were using mapmyride to locate where people lived and using ride pics to target bikes. Maybe just place it far enough away to make targeting pointless
The engineers should have gone to 'Spec' Savers. I'm stunned by this. I was toying with a Levo or Kenevo, but I think I'll stick to my Haibike. At least on the Haibike's the vent is on the front of the guard and any crud sits at the bottom of the guard away from the motor. Saying that I reckon a...
Glad you got it sorted Dirk. These expensive things we learn along the way. I carry a spare hanger now for my Haibike but two years later an no issue. No doubt it'll be something else I don't have a spare of next time.
A slight over reaction I feel. I've been meaning to donate but was a bit lazy to setup a patreon account. This just triggered me to do it. So a bit of a nudge is all it is. Or wait until next week as Rob says.
Yes thanks Gary. I forgot to mention I'd used copious amounts of threadlock to solve the problem. Surprised at how little threadlock is used on new bikes. I've also had to do the stem, some brake disc bolts and even a pivot bolt.
Also, on my new Haibike I've had to tighten the hanger mount bolt 4 times since new, because torquey vibration changing gear has a habit of loosening it. Is it still tight? I'd say it got caught in/knocked into the spoke. I went through 3 derailleurs in two weeks this way once to find that the...
Sorry to dip out folks. The weather is just a bit too grim for me. :cry:Annoying as it was pretty nice yesterday. I hope you all still have a good day regardless.
