    Tyre advice please

    I should be grateful for some tyre advice, and I promise I have already read the ultimate tyre thread but although I learned a lot it left me no wiser what tyres would be best for me. My Haibike Alltrail 6.0 came with 27.5x2.8 Maxxis DHF and DHR tubed tyres. They seem fine but I have a £150...

    Pannier racks for eMTBs

    I have previously mentioned that I use my bike as a “pack horse” with front and rear panniers. I have an Old Man Mountain front pannier which is excellent (if expensive!). OMM have just sent me an independent review of one of their panniers fitted to a FS bike...

    Flyon Speed Sensor

    Back in February when out in the hills, the speed sensor failed on my Alltrail 6 with the message: "Warning Speed Sensor. Speed sensor problem. Power reduced". My LBS said the disk had warped and fixed the problem although I subsequently realised something was still not right as the motor...

    Tyre pressure and speed!

    Odd discovery, but perfectly logical when I thought about it. My friend and I have identical emtbs but my motor cut out at about 14mph and his about 15.5mph. Yesterday I thought my tyres were far too soft and pumped them up to rock hard intending gradually to let air out until I found the right...

    Front pannier rack

    Again, probably not of interest to most members but might help some. Also, it is a pleasure to be able to report excellent service. I fitted a front pannier rack to my “old” Haibike Hardseven; an Old Man Mountain Sherpa. No problems with it at all and it carried a fair amount of stuff for me and...

    Can we trust magazine reviews?

    I am still annoyed that spares and accessories are not available for the Flyon – and the best the UK dealer can/will say is that they are on order - with no delivery date known. Haibike HQ did not reply. Given the unwillingness of Haibike to communicate, I contacted two of the bike magazines to...

    Beta testing a Flyon!

    A friend and I used, and abused, our Haibike hardsevens for 4 years with no problems whatsoever. A few months ago we took delivery of Flyon Alltrail 6.0 bikes. Almost immediately my bike was out of action for 6 weeks because of a fault in the control panel and waiting for a replacement. My...

    Only eco mode on Specialised Levo

    My brother has a little used 2017 Specalised Levo 29. He and I went out for a run yesterday and his bike would not change out of eco mode. Made for an easy day for me but not so much fun for him! When he pressed the mode button the lights changed to different settings but it made no difference...

    First impressions - Flyon Alltrail 6.0

    Well after a 15 month wait, I finally took delivery of my Haibike Flyon Alltrail 6.0. I am probably not a typical emtb-er as I only use my bikes as “packhorses” to carry fishing and camping gear up rough trails and footpaths. No bouncing over rocks and roots for me! Which also means I am not...

    Flyon Deliveries

    Does anyone know what is happening with Flyon deliveries? My (excellent) local shop say they have had no updates whatsoever since hearing 3 months ago it might be this autumn. It is now over a year since I put down a deposit for a delivery in March 2019.

    Answered Front pannier part for Haibike

    Hello All I carry a lot of fishing and camping kit and want to fit a set of front panniers to my Haibike Hardseven. I managed to find a secondhand Old Mountain Man Sherpa rack but it does not have the supplied longer QR axle pin. The OMM website is closed and there is no reply to emails. Does...

    New Member from the Scottish Highlands

    Hello All New member here. I have a 4-year old Haibike Hardseven that I use on rough tracks in the Scottish Highlands for fishing trips. Often climb 1500ft in 2.5 miles and the bike has been completely flawless and there seems negligible deterioration in battery capacity. I had hoped to have a...
