Those are great bike suggestions. And yes, I have considered a second set of wheels. I priced it out and could put together a second set for the FullSeven for around $550. So, really, I could sell my Vado and just do that. I didn't even know about the Focus Thron, that is a sweet bike. (BTW...

The 2019 Haibike deals right now are fantastic. My buddy bought a FullSeven just like mine when he heard the price. I almost want to pick up a Trekking 9 just because the price is so good! Previous Gen yes, but for the price a no-brainer. Wesley the Haibike is awesome, and I see TomDav pointed...

I do think a do-it-all bike should have some carrying capacity, yes. Ravi that's really interesting and the design looks great. One internal battery with a piggy back? Will this bike be along the lines of the Bulls Iconic Evo TR1? Which, by the way, is another contender for an ultimate...

I've spent quite a bit of time thinking about this. I started my most recent buying cycle about 8 months ago looking for one bike to do it all. What I thought at the time was I wanted a hard-tail mountain bike with cross-country tires that would roll well on the street. I couldn't find the...

Look who's talking about $$$$! Never heard of them, those look like some seriously high quality boots. I'm a sucker for anything particularly well made. Now I want a pair, gee thanks! :rolleyes:

True, but they last forever, are supportive, and look great. I have a black and brown pair and I wear them every day. I've walked over 20 miles in one day in them, and I bike with them sometimes too! $70/pair and wearing them every day they last at least 2 years. That's value to me...

https://olukai.com/ BOOM. You can thank me later 😆

Looks like my year-round wardrobe ;)

You will get plenty of great advice on back sweep, but in the end it will come down to what works best for you. If you want to make a safe bet for a first try, leaning on the conservative end, 15 degrees is not a horrible place to start. 45 would be extreme.

Cool video man, that took some effort. Abandoned college was awesome (though maybe not that particular piece of music 😁) Cool bike too.

+1 for the Stamps I used to ride clipped in on a road bike. Plusses and minuses, but it definitely adds some complication. These days I just want to ride and not worry about it. The Stamps are REALLY grippy...

I REALLY like that V3 Cruiser Bar: https://shop.fairdalebikes.com/collections/fairdale-components/products/archer-v3-cruiser-bars That would give you 20mm more rise than my Deity bars. Plenty, if you're not trying to air out your arm pits 😆

I had a Juiced CCS as my first ebike. I definitely don't feel like I'm missing anything in the power department with my Vado 5. I can get to 28MPH easily. I had to power Eco down to 20% just to stay around 18MPH cruise on flat ground. I don't commute but it would work perfectly for it...

That’s my old ride. Used to ride W&OD from Ashburn to Purcellville on a Trek Madone. Love that Leesburg to Purcellville section!

Yup, I see it. Well I'm happy nothing is wrong with my new bike. Not a fan of that noise but it's not the end of the world...

I really like that Hurricane design and I had not seen it until recently. For the right bike and riding situation I would definitely buy it. Right now this bike is dedicated to soft surface riding, mostly in a jungle-like environment, and I need a more aggressive tire. And with the rainy...

So maybe it makes that sound because the chain is not pulling or pushing on it as with the chain ring and cassette.

That’s a great idea but it won’t work with this design. With the tiny chain ring the bottom arm of the rear triangle would be in the way.

You did Rich, you said it sounded like SES and mentioned lubing would quiet it down. Cleaned and fresh lubed again and it's still loud. If that's what it is I'll get used to it, just seems off to me.

Some of you may have seen this in the general forum, but since it might be Haibike specific I wanted to post here. If you have a Haibike with the Sprocket Equalizing System (with the second sprocket, or jockey pulley), does it sound like this? I thought it might be a Bosch issue but now I'm...
