    Picky Bike Advice Please

    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...

    Haibike yamaha display error

    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?

    Which E-Bike has this one best feature ? "Dirt bike"

    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...

    Does suspension make street riding safer???

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

    Does suspension make street riding safer???

    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...

    [Tip] Yamaha PW - How to check the number of cycles & absolute battery capacity

    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...

    What's the Best Electric Bike, or at Least Your Favorite!

    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...

    Class 1 vs 3

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

    Class 1 vs 3

    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...

    Will EBikeshare Replace EBike Ownership For Most People in Cities?

    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...

    Will the popularity of tuning kill eBikes?

    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.

    Rear light for dense city traffic

    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...

    How an Ebike Changed My Life - NY Times Article

    All of us in this forum who have been riding ebikes recognize the writer's experience. I wonder if the Specialized Turbo Como is selling briskly given that it was the only specific bike mentioned, and with a link to its website.

    [Tip] Yamaha PW - How to check the number of cycles & absolute battery capacity

    Thank you for the information, but as has been pointed out previously the readout provided by Yamaha is too coarse. It's provided only in blocks of 25%, and there is no readout in watt-hours. Also, please clarify. Are you advocating fully depleting a battery to 0% in order to calibrate, and to...

    Is it bad to use highest pedal assist a lot?

    I ride my Haibike AllMtn Plus on HIGH all the time. I get about 35 miles range in mixed terrain (about 40 miles when the bike was new 3 years ago). I climb many hills and the Yamaha motor has never overheated in over 7,000 miles. I know I could get greater range if I rode in STD (for Standard)...
