    Hi, I have a Haibike AllMtn 11. Low mileage. It’s just too heavy for me. I cannot put it on roof rack and I have to dismantle it to get it in the car.

    One of the riders in my group has one of these and its the heaviest bike by far. She can barely pick it up off the ground. But ebikes (with current technology) are never a good match with roofracks - better with a tow bar rack.

    Levo S6 tow bar options for long wheelbase bikes UK

    I own a Buzzrack e-Scorpion XL and it happily takes my Amflow and my GF's Canyon emtb with ease. Seems this is the replacement, looks the same to me...

    Amflow PL Carbon owners, check your seat tube for cracks!

    In the UK at least, if something is shown to be not fit for purpose and/or last a reasonable length of time then the Consumer Rights Act 2015 would trump any warranty wording. However, your statutory rights are with the retailer, not the manufacturer. This is why things get messy when you buy...

    Amflow PL Carbon owners, check your seat tube for cracks!

    I don't believe they are 'counterfeit' in the truest sense. What they perhaps are are factory backdoors - perhaps a batch was rejected by Amflow for quality issues, but instead of being destroyed they found their way to the market via Alibaba. Or, more likely, they are just sold locally -...

    Amflow PL Carbon owners, check your seat tube for cracks!

    I will check my size L PL carbon shortly. I have kept it completely stock and have the seatpost inserted all the way to the collar. I do, however, clamp the bike by that area in the bike carrier on my car (and clamp the seatpost in the workstand). I have not seen anything and have recently...

    Avinox Reveals its Motor Gearbox

    I love that on page 1 of this thread we already have a 'manual shifting is better' post. Can't make it up.

    How are you lot washing your bikes without contaminating your pads and rotors?

    Same. Washing up liquid is a great degreaser. Hot water and Fairy Liquid gets your bike shining. I then rinse off with the hose, and wipe down with a towel. I use foaming chain cleaner on the drivetrain first - work it through the gears etc then get the above washing up liquid all over it. I...

    WARNING - Do not pay AmFlow via direct bank transfer and expect a refund

    Keep us posted. Amflow / DJI aren't some rinky dink company - they'll sort it out but it sounds like its gotten stuck in the process somewhere. It may be because you paid by bank that is causing the issue - there are more checks that need to take place for international bank transfers than a...

    Authorities are waking up...

    I know many people with Bosch and Shimano motors - the very first thing absolutely every single one of them did was take it to the other shop up the road that allowed the 'chipping' to remove the limiter! Funny that init

    Authorities are waking up...

    I've never seen anything like the furore that Avinox has caused in my entire career on the internet. And I used to post on PistonHeads.

    EMTB prices are plummeting.

    That Shimano motor won't be helping things. I know someone who's on their THIRD warranty replacement. Which, to their credit, Canyon/Shimano have replaced without fuss each time. But yeah, damn.

    Which one to get?

    Did y'all not see that OP said he doesn't like the look of the Spesh Levo lol

    Which one to get?

    How much are you looking to spend and what type of riding are you after? The kind of default choice right now if you don't have any brand loyalty and/or no specific preference on design or use case is to get an Amflow that suits your budget. They offer great value with the most modern motor on...

    What’s your go to components, accessories etc.

    I've ran RaceFace Chesters across many bikes for many years, but Ive heard great things on those Burgtecs so think I will swap over.
