I've found the folks on this site to be extremely helpful to any new comer with questions. Then, along comes the above observation........ And this: "I do use the front brake as a 'clutch' for the mid-drive engine, but hopefully not enough to actually engage the brake" Please elaborate about...

Move the mirror mount so it butts right up against the grip. Move the motor controller & throttle, inboard. Problem solved.

@Logwog: Another ebike to consider is the Zen Photon. Aside from the premium features of this particular bike, maybe the most important thing I consider is the people backing Zen. And the leader of Zen is a person who has been a long time contributor to this forum and site, @Ravi Kempaiah. I...

Some great advice here, as usual. There are no set-in-stone answers to what you seek; just the solid, real-world experience by each and every one of us who have taken the time to post. Myself, I can say I've pretty much done it all. Started with Mr Tuffy liners on my Haibike Full FatSix's 4.0...

If you google "American Electrics" like I did, you won't find what your looking for. Always good when someone finds a helpful business or website, to link it directly, like this: https://www.american-electric.co/ Regardless, good job by the OP, @Bobbo to find a business that looks like they can...

The latest info from the NJ Bike and Walk Coalition: https://njbwc.org/bill-s2292/ So people against the bill (including representatives of insurance companies who don't want to touch mandatory ebike insurance!) have already testified. The result? The Senate Head (who introduced this ridiculous...

And, concluding, just my two cents: I found this forum and Court's video reviews back in late 2016 or so. I loved my Specialized Fatboy fat bike, but his review of the new 2016 Felt Outfitter and 2016 Haibike FatSix caught my eye to the possibilities of going long distance on bikes like this...

Except for my years away from this god-forsaken state to do military service, I am a long time resident of NJ. Trust me when I write that it still remains the worst, most heavily tax-burdened state out of all 50 states. And believe me, should this thing get passed into law (I think it will...

Can't hurt, can only help. But do inspect those teeth for wear. On my Shimano XT derailleur, the pulleys are made of some kind of plastic or nylon.

What was the outcome to this issue? Your findings as to the right course of repair & posting it up in these forums on this site benefits everybody else who owns a similar ebike........now and into the future to come.

I've ridden my Haibike long enough, worn out enough chain rings and stretched enough chains to learn some things along the way....... 1. No matter how dedicated you are or are not in keeping your chain lubed, it means nothing when it comes to the physical stretching of a chain. And once the...

I imagine there are stripped threads on the thru-axle, the frame or both. I'd think there are videos posted on youtube on the repair of this situation. My guess it involves a helo-coil insert (specific to bike frame dropouts). And/or a new thru axle. Forget about loc-tite. If you have a road...

Cannot beat that Yamaha ebike drive and battery system. The extra battery (1000 total wh's) and a 5 year warranty just makes it all the more a sweeter deal.

And in the below link, found again on the German pedelec forum, the poster describes replacing the display and controller (and a new display) and no joy! After some back and forth, the original poster finds he was sold the wrong controller (again, to my previous post, there are two PW LCD...

Dave, your post does not make it clear what year Haibike you have. Note that if you have the big LCD display, that there were 2 designs of that display. The earlier of the two DOES NOT include the Eco+ power setting. You must have the correct display for the proper year PW motor. Note that on...

E-Bike Vision will not ship their batteries to us in the USA, so it's a moot point. It's been quite a few years since member @Ravi Kempaiah brought these batteries to our attention on this forum. But once again, doing business with the Germans is a no-go. I have an Opel GT and am very well...

I hate to be the wet blanket on a very nice build, but as it stands, real off-road fat bikes are a niche market to begin with. (not talking about the typical Chinesium 70 pound plus monstrosities with no-name fat tires on them that are sold these days). Add a recumbent fatty into that mix and I...

Old Man Mountain Fat Sherpa Racks, Front mounted (photo 1, original configuration) and Front & Rear Mounted (photo 2, my final bike setup). I'm old school too and find the ease of use and capacity of a good rack mounted pannier beats the new age bike frame mounted bags, 7 days out of the week...

@PCeBiker: Why is your handlebar stem backwards?

For those low light hours where I may be out on the H-Bike, I have full trust in the dynamo powered SON28 rear tail light. Being German, it's a full-bright, full-on light, no blinking. I'm pretty much constrained to my camo-gray Fox Racing pants and usually the upper wear are shades of black. I...
