@Mr. Coffee is right in pointing out that it is hard to find sturdy racks and panniers that work well with full suspension bikes and wide tires (i.e. more than 2 inches wide). The best sturdy racks use the axle as the main point of support, and this usually requires replacing the axle with a...

Stem raisers or spacers. Obviously, the steering tube (which fits inside the stem) has to be long enough, which was the case.

I have the Jones H-bar with 2.5-inch rise and Ergon grips with palm rests. It's a great combination. I did not have to get new cables or wire harness even while using stem spacers with the Jones H-bar, they were long enough. You should verify that the bike you want to buy has long-enough cables...

I agree that the Jones H-Bars are da bomb! I use the Jones H-Bar with 2.5-inch rise. Together with a couple of stem spacers it allows me to ride comfortably upright. The 45-degree sweep places your wrists in a more natural and comfortable position than a flat bar, and the Jones H-Bar allows for...

I bought the Jones H-bar direct; the Haibike from a local dealer.

I ride a 2016 Haibike Allmtn Plus with full suspension (Yamaha motor and 3-inch tires). I ride upright by raising the handlebar with spacers. I also replaced the handlebar with a Jones H-bar with 2.5-inch rise. The Jones H-bar sweeps back at 45 degrees, aiding in riding upright and positioning...

Attached is the Yamaha PW service manual. On page 2-39 it says in reference to Er 15, "Replace the display unit assembly." Since you've already done that, perhaps it is incorrectly installed. Have you tried contacting your dealer or the Haibike distributor?

I agree with @rich c. I ride a 2016 Haibike SDURO Full Seven Plus. It has a Yamaha motor, full suspension, 27.5 inch wheels, and plus-sized tires (3-inch). It checks all your requirements except I don't hose it off. I give it a sponge bath. I don't want to risk messing up the electronics. Other...

I agree. The assumption is that you get a good suspension, not a bad one. You should get a good electric bike period.

To the extent that suspension helps keep your wheels in contact with the ground, that is definitely a safety factor. After all, you cannot control your bike with your wheels in the air. And to the extent that comfort reduces fatigue, that would also be a safety factor. Many accidents are caused...

Congratulations, that is an impressive amount of riding, specially doing it mainly on weekends! And it's great to know that the battery is holding up very well after so many cycles. But, how do you do it? If you mostly ride on weekends, do you ride before daybreak for your first shift, charge...

I also thank Court for creating and maintaining this very informative website! If I don't count an ebike conversion kit from LEED, I have owned two ebikes. The LEED kit did not fit any of my three conventional bikes, but it was impossible to tell until I received the kit. LEED gave me a credit...

The BikespeedRS has no effect on battery life so far as I can tell. I got identical range before and after.

Bikespeed is in Germany and they list their prices in Euros. Click on the "Shop" tab and follow the prompts to select the appropriate model for your bike to see prices and shipping cost. You pay via Paypal. Their email address is [email protected]

Get a BikespeedRS dongle to unlock the speed restriction. It works very well and preserves all the display info correctly, except for maximum speed attained (it displays an overly optimistic 55 mph!). However, it will probably void your warranty. I got mine when the warranty was about to expire...

Attached is the Yamaha service manual. The wiring diagram is on page 2-1. I hope it helps!

So that they can enjoy their feelings of paranoia? :) I know what you meant, but your phrasing would lead to the opposite meaning, i.e. if people feel paranoid about having their phones with them they would leave their phone behind in order to not have those unpleasant feelings. Paranoia: "A...

A trolley! "A small vehicle with two or four wheels that you push or pull to transport large or heavy objects on," such as our troll.

I have the Bontrager Charge WaveCel helmet and it comes with the mount for the Bontrager Ion lights. I use the red one on my helmet and the white one on my handlebars. They are bright enough to be seen in daylight and they last for about five hours in blinking mode. I wish Bontrager had included...

It's unfortunate there were so many haters of ebikes in the comment section of the story.
