    is it possible to wire in a headlight?

    That Supernova light by itself is over 400$... I am sorry but when I am getting lights that work great for under 30$ I can't even fathom spending over 400$. I just wanted to see if there was a way to wire in my existing lights to the bikes battery.

    is it possible to wire in a headlight?

    I have two Haibikes, both 2017 models, a full nine 6.5 and a all mountain 5.0, both powered by yamaha. On the bottom of the switch panel near the left grip there is a port that appears to allow something to plug in.... Wondering what is supposed to plug into that port and if there is...

    EBike Shaming

    first off, you let THEM win.... if you let them hurt your feelings and you leave. I get some grief for my Ebike from people, even friends and I just smile and say, " Haters gonna Hate " and don't get too bothered by it. I don't ride my bike as a exercise program, and Ill remind them...

    Insurance?

    First problem you have is state farm. I switched from state farm to safeco insurance a year ago and my costs were nearly cut in half. Safeco had no problem covering the bikes and like I said, I was able to buy a ryder to my policy ( similar to what you would do to cover furs or jewelry )...

    Online e bikes

    I would have ordered from him had I not ordered from fly rides.... I think the other reason I picked fly rides was they are located real close to HAIBIKES warehouse and they would have the bike from haibike sooner than the guy in WI. so therefore they would be able to unbox and check bike...

    Should I wait to buy my 1st e-bike?

    I am sure as time goes on there will be improvements in ebikes. More power.... longer range... less weight... possibly lower prices... etc... But what I can tell you is that at least with my HAIBIKES... they work so well now that I can't imagine how they could get any better. My full...

    Insurance?

    My homeowners policy would cover my bikes, but I would be subjected to the deductible, which in my case is a 2000$ deductible. I added a special Ryder to my homeowners policy that is specific to my bikes and covers all of my bikes for theft, no deductible, and it cost me under 50$ for the year.

    e-bike hatred.. I've found it

    I have seen a ton of hate for them ONLINE. In person face to face no one has shown me any dis respect. I think the true reason for the hate is simply because the ebike makes it easy. Even for the real good athletes, riding a non ebike is a major workout. They don't like that they are...

    Should I wait to buy my 1st e-bike?

    To the original poster, I still stand by my opinion that a bike is a bike. That although it would be nice to have a local dealer, it isn't the end of the world if there isn't. On my Haibike, the only thing that is specific to my bike is the frame and motor system. Everything else is...

    Should I wait to buy my 1st e-bike?

    Reading all the do good'er comments from a few of you, I would ask this.... How many of you shop at Walmart? How many of you go out of your way to only shop at small mom and pop stores verses big corporate stores? How many of you buy stuff off Ebay or Amazon? Its easy to pass...

    Should I wait to buy my 1st e-bike?

    When I came across HaiBike, It was via the internet. I had been watching my local craigslist for over a year, not daily but semi regularly, for a good deal on a USED Trek or other high end Ebike. I Stopped buying new things ( cars, boats, motorcycles, anything semi expensive ) years...

    Should I wait to buy my 1st e-bike?

    Meant to also add, Since getting the HAIBIKES, we ride a ton more than before, and always look forward to riding. We will also ride trails we would dread to ride before, since these bikes make going up hills a breeze. I am 46, the wife is 40. We are fit enough that we don't NEED ebikes...

    Should I wait to buy my 1st e-bike?

    I wanted a Ebike since 2015. Waited for prices to come down on them. In that time, lots of " Cheap " chinese made Ebikes started coming to Market.... Bikes like the RAD ROVER for example. I didn't want a cheap chinese bike, even if it was relatively good. I wanted a truly high end...

    Advice on 2017 HardNine 6.0

    Ordered from Fly Rides online, got it for 2700$ shipped to the house. Considered the 6.0 version, but for some reason, I think I was told they were out of my size frame... size large... It was that or perhaps the upgraded componets for the extra few hundred that steered me into getting...
