    The infamous Motobecane HAL E-MTB. I bought one…

    The factory dropper that is now included is also 385mm overall so in order to get the extra seat height above where your seat post is I would have to swap it for a longer post such as the 415 version of the 9point8 with 25mm offset. ...

    The infamous Motobecane HAL E-MTB. I bought one…

    Thanks again for checking that for us. So the 42cm HAL electric really is 42cm. Which with the stock 100mm dropper post is going to leave me 8mm short without changing to a longer dropper.

    Interesting that your 42cm HAL electric looks to be about 22.75" for the measured top tube to the seat clamp which should be about ideal for me (especially considering that the dropper that is now included is a single bolt type and has an extra 15mm set back compared to your more common zero set...

    The calculator isn't good for estimating top tube although it did get my seat height correct. It is recommending only 520mm top tube and my bikes actually measure 560 and and 590 with specs of 590 and 590. I would still like to see someone post actual measurements of their HAL e.

    The infamous Motobecane HAL E-MTB. I bought one…

    I'm probably going to have to size up to the 46cm HAL e. My HAL BOOST is stated at 43 and I have exactly 10mm more seat post to the min insertion line. And the HAL e is 42cm or 46, so I would be right on the line with the 42. The HAL BOOST 43 is also about 30mm shorter reach than my Specialized...

    Except the stated specs and the measured values are not the same. Especially seat tube angle. My HAL BOOST states a top tube and reach of 591 mm and 415 but the actual measurements of my bike at my seat height and to the top of the stem are 561 mm and 378. Interestingly, the specified seat set...

    Nobody has a HAL e and a tape measure and string to help me determine what size to order?

    The infamous Motobecane HAL E-MTB. I bought one…

    Using my tape measure with plumb bob measurement technique for the HAL BOOST 43 I get a virtual top tube of 561mm, reach of 378 mm which leaves a seat clamp set back of 182 mm including the slight seat back of the seat post head on this dropper. My seat rails are about 680 mm extension from the...

    Unfortunately they do not tell us the reach for the HAL e models (which tells us where along the top tube the crank is positioned) as they do for the regular HAL BOOST for instance. .

    Can someone with a HAL e 42cm or 46 post some measurements? Lay a tape measure across from the seat to the steerer with a weighted string hanging down to the crank so that we can see the reach to the front and the set back to the seat clamp. These are offered again and I am thinking about...
