    Yes, the specs was nice. And the display unit was a little bit smaller. I like the Bosch display but its a little big, and next one even bigger =)

    Thanks for the answer. So Bosch is still for their high end bikes and now they have a more affordable option, thats nice. Why I wondered was that I read about the new Bosch system for 2015 with gps and that some bikes gonna have a Nexus hub with automatic shifting. It first sounded like Haibike...

    So Haibike announced new bikes with Yamaha instead of Bosh as their electric motor system. Are they going to discontinue making bikes with Bosch motor or are they going to be exclusive with Yamaha? Anyone who has more detailed info on whats happening?

    Oh this so fun. I did a few adjustments and lowered the handlebar and also attached a couple bar ends. I have now a average speed of 29km/h, on my 20 km commute. And I'm not too exhausted when I'm arriving.

    No it shouldn't. There's actually a link and a photo of that bike earlier in this thread (the link is in the post just above).

    So, today I bought a really expensive Haibike Urban. My intention is to ride it all year long even in snow, so I hope it will serve me well. On the first ride home today I had upwind but still managed to drive 10 min faster than this morning when I drove my 26" 15 year old mtb. It was really fun...

    Sweden, the limit is 25km/h for electric assist bikes. But thats ok really I love to bike. I'm looking for assist in the hills and when its windy. When conditions are right I'll have strength left to maintain high speed downhills and on the straights.

    The Marathons tires looks great. Seems like long lasting tires. And also some nice bar ends so I can switch positions. Thanks I'm maybe closer to make a decision =) I think that I believe that I am gonna go so much faster with cyclecross or a hybrid. But at higher speeds the assist is not gonna...

    Thanks Chris. In other bike forums almost every thread talking about cycle cross as the best option for commute. But in another thread I found there was this guy talking about that you need to go further distances to actually have difference in time. I'm leaning to a 29" mtb like the Haibike...

    Hi again. I actually made one commute on my 26" mtb and I'm not in good shape I had a average speed of 17km/h =). With a length 21km do guys think I will benefit in speed from a hybrid vs a 29" mtb? Even when my shape is better =) If I is about to bike as often as I can maybe comfort is better...

    Thanks for the replies. Very helpfull. I felt the difference between the two motors actually. The E-motion motor had a nice extra boost at start which was cool, you had a nice speed in no time. But the Bosh is maybe a better choice if you're mainly using it for commute and roads, I wonder if it...

    Hi there, I'm from Sweden and is about to buy an electric bike. I have cycled a lot both road bike and mtb. I've just started a new job and have about 20 km to work, one way. I think most of the road gonna be asphalt. I can almost never sit on a bike and cruise. I always want to go fast. I think...
