Im not riding the bike with the seatpost suspension anymore (selling it next week), but I rode it for a good while. There is a noticable difference and I think its worth every penny. It is not like a full squish by any means, but it does offer a way better riding quality and I can only...

I actually didnt check the spoke tension to be honest, because as far as I looked with the eye, the rims are perfectly true, but I´ll double check tomorrow or rather my lbs will, since I´ll pay them a visit anyways.

Another update when Im at it btw. Front brakes are rubbing, centering doesnt help at all. Researched a bit and it seems like thats pretty common with Magura MT5´s and the 203mm disc. Going to the bikeshop tommorow anyways. Either they fix that, or I install another brake rotor (apparently that...

Thanks. Its really practical. Taking out the battery (if needed) is only 1 step more then on a "normal" battery design. On the underside of the tube there is a cover which pops out with a lever, then you put in the key from the side and the battery pops out. There is a charging port on the...

Totally stoked that I could get my Haibike Allmtn 9.0 from my LBS today. This bike will supersede my Radrhino, which did its job but doesnt have enough offroad capabilities. Rode directly from my LBS to home and a small tour afterwards, racked up 25km on the first ride. Runs like a dream and...

Always depends on what you use the bike for. For commuting (if you live in a pretty flat area) I´d mostly suggest hub drives. If you are mostly trailriding or mountainbiking, I´d never suggest a hub and would always go with a middrive.

Regarding haibikes with a bosch motor, those things are nearly waterproof. Its obvious that you shouldnt spray that thing down with a pressure washer, but as far as I know, there should be no problem rinsing the bike off with a hose (without pressure ofc).

Well thats only because they´re pretty unique. If it would be a totally normal car, I doubt many people would go that lenghts. I for myself wouldnt by a car without being able to check it out first. And I wouldnt by a tesla anyways.

Thats why I´d never buy a bike from a online shop. Would be like buying a car from a internet shop, who´d even do that? If I invest so much money into something, I want somebody close who I can turn to if I have problems.

A slightly bent derailer hanger could be the cause of that too. If only a set number of gears dont work great, its mostly the hanger which isnt perfectly straight. You can try to adjust all you want, if the hanger is the problem you wont get far without adressing that first. If it stays that...

For me its quite simple. I like the idea and "evolution" of ebikes, Im quite techsavy so its apparent that I´d like these. When I was younger I was always on the bike with friends and back then I always wished for a bike wich was easier to pedal and we dreamt about getting a motorcycle or...

For that price, Im certain it will lack any quality parts nor hold out long. And with those tires, I wouldnt even get over curbs, thats not really a electric bike imo, rather a electrical toy scooter.

Fortunaly though, we have some ways to bypass that limit in europe, lol. Not legally but at least able to lift that limit with a few extra bucks.

Nice upgrade but on the radwagon it seems that a seatpostsuspension would do way more for you then a front one. Most of the weight is in the back, especially with a radwagon, therefore the suspension in the front will mostly only reduce the shock to the hands and arms. Your butt will still...

I dont know if I can hold my composure in such an encounter.... Didnt get such negativity yet, maybe its different here in germany, but you can bet that this guy would have gotten his share if it would have been me. I mean, what the heck is his problem? Why does he care what others do? Just...

Well one of the folks is me. Already reserved it and my LBS is currently getting it for me, have to wait till end of this month. Im just sitting in front of my phone everyday waiting for the call, haha. Im upgrading from a Radpowerbikes Radrhino to a Haibike Allmtn 9.0. Its a pretty extreme...

I may swap them out later on the road, but for starters I think I have no choice to settle with them for a while. Well I guess they are still going to be way better then the mechanical brakes I have on my radrover and will be a improvement.

Yeah, a huge step up in price too, but I think its worth it. I pretty much tested the waters with the Radrhino and its a good bike for the price, but I just want a bit more quality and especially a bit more offroad capabilitys. Mountainbiking on a Radrhino is a chore, you can barely lift that...

Since Im going to buy a new bike, I wont be upgrading the Radrhino anymore. The Allmtn 9.0 Im getting has the Magura MT5 too, hope they arent as bad as you described them. Will be my first hydraulic brakes.

@rich c Thats what Im "scared" about. Its sad that ebikers and emtbikers have to face discrimination from others for no reason. My LBS isnt a startup point for mountainbikers unfortunaly. So its hard to meet people around here who mountainbike.
