    Let's see your best pic of your electric bicycle

    A little further west than I thought. I have never ridden in that part of GE. It must have been a very nice ride and its a really nice photo.

    I-rack for Sduro Trekking

    I remember well the hills around Lausanne and yes, the prices too :-) I bought a nice Peugeot bike in Thonon les Bains and saved myself at least 40% over the price in Lausanne and even took a VD plaque de velo with me for the boat back from Evian. I used to like to ride from La...

    I-rack for Sduro Trekking

    I have ordered a Kolo trunk bag from Ebay USA which has good reviews and is fairly cheap, to experiment with. Importing stuff into CH is always tricky as the Swiss post office always want you to pay duty. Where in la Suisse Romande are you? I lived 8 years in Lausanne, Penthaz...

    I-rack for Sduro Trekking

    It looks as if the larger hooks will fit a larger tubing diameter of rack. I will be interested to see them fitted in place. If its what you wanted I glad you were able to get them ! I emailed Haibike USA about the Carrymore I-rack system and for reply he said the parts and bags...

    I-rack for Sduro Trekking

    Danke fur die Ubersetzung LOL . Ich habe auch in die Schweiz gewohnt (Franzosich Seite) und auch in Baden Wurtenburg. Mein Muttersprache ist jedenfalls English. I am coming to the conclusion that this adapter plate "c'est introuvable" and I might just have to make my own from 10mm...

    I-rack for Sduro Trekking

    What is shown on the pedelec forum above is the exact rack that I have on my Sduro Trekking SL The XLC adaptor plate on it or something just like it is what I want. I keep finding sites where it is no longer available so I will probably have to buy it from an overseas source which often...

    I-rack for Sduro Trekking

    My bike is Sduro Trekking SL and the rack I have resembles more the second picture labelled Xduro 5.0. The brand is Carrymore and has a traditional European rack spring and also attachments for I-rack or Vip-fix bags used in Germany, NL etc. See also...

    I-rack for Sduro Trekking

    I have subsequently found a supplier, Lee's in Summit Mo, which might carry some of this stuff. http://bikekc.com/product/cannondale-carrymore-qr-adapter-plate-224975-1.htm

    I-rack for Sduro Trekking

    I have no panniers or bag as this time as I have only had the bike a few days but I would like to find places where stuff for these bikes can be found. Your experiences are helpful. German stuff is typically hard to find and probably not easily interchangeable.

    I-rack for Sduro Trekking

    The trekking carrier has a big spring but I have seen underneath it some attachment places and a pushbutton. These seem to work for the I-rack stuff and I have seen an adaptor on German Ebay which permits several different types of bags, trunks, panniers etc from being fitted quickly and...

    I-rack for Sduro Trekking

    I have a new Sduro Trekking. I really like the build quality. I am about 2 hours drive from a dealer and I would like to buy I-rack parts to fit the Carrymore carrier. I have seen them on Ebay Germany but is there someway I can get them in USA ? An online stockist perhaps ...

    Thanks Will for your reply. I was completely unfamiliar with Cube bikes and they do sound very nicely engineered. Quite a detailed description thanks !! You summed up what I am looking for pretty well. I found Courts review you alluded to as well. I have to...

    need help choosing right size

    Thanks for your clarification Chris. The lo step frame looks a bit like a woman's bike, hence my questions. I'm looking at the Cross or the Hardseven mostly for cost reasons. I'm a retired engineer and I like the German design but I have to be careful on the price. I'm...

    need help choosing right size

    Thanks for the comments and suggestions guys. I confess I am a little confused on the sizing. Why are there 52 cm lo step and 52 hi step haibike frames ? I assume the hi step top tube ties into the seat tube higher than the lo step does with the opposite happening to the...

    I am looking at getting a Haibike sduro cross. Nearest dealer is about 2 1/2 hours drive away so I am thinking about buying online, perhaps Amazon. I am 70, 6ft, inside leg 32" a little handicapped from accident (tbi) and have trouble swinging my leg over high saddle. My MTB is...
