    Chris Smith moving on from EMBN

    I've said this before about Rob Rides and his reviews, all dogshit, positive with never any true negative feeling or bad final analysis, especially when its a brand that pays the wages.

    Fork service

    Had the bike 2 years, Haibike Allmtn7 with Fox 38 Factory Kashima, air, 160mm Fork and Fox DPX2 Factory Kashima, air, 160mm shock and have never touched it apart from wash and lube with a silicon spray. Works perfectly. TBH I have only ever serviced a fork or shock when I have noticed a change...

    When in 12 gear (smallest sprocket) and when in trail or turbo whilst also putting my own max power down the chain sometimes skips a few teeth.

    The strange thing is that there is no noticable wear on the sproket. Put it side to side or back to back against a brand new one and they look the same. (we are not talking about badly worn spiked teeth here, its just that the chain slips but doesn't with a new sprocket) I will try a Shimano...

    When in 12 gear (smallest sprocket) and when in trail or turbo whilst also putting my own max power down the chain sometimes skips a few teeth.

    Guys, I have been following this post with interest as I always get the same issue when I put a new chain on a worn but still useable cassette (approx 300-600 miles) as I usually use 3 chains per cassette and swap the chains very early so they are all slightly worn together, all medium wear...

    Spare tube storage.

    Cyclopath - I have experienced exactly the same as going tubeless means I rarely need a tube, in fact never in over 8 years. The cheapest and simpliest answer is to continue with what you do now (to avoid any extra weight in your pack) but set a reminder on your phone to check and replace the...

    AllMtn7 battery release

    I had a nightmare with my Allmtn7 and couldn’t get the battery to release for the first 6 months. When I was in the bike shop I asked them for help and they tried and failed too. Someone asked if I had mixed my keys up (no way that’s possible) but they plugged the computer in to see if the key...

    ALLMTN7 - Headset Bearings

    I love the bike 2 and wouldn't change it. As any bike it needs constant maintenance and I have ridden 1250km throughout the winter in harsh conditions so its hardly surprising some of the bearings need replacing or regreasing.

    ALLMTN7 - Headset Bearings

    my bike went into the lbs this morning. They are going to replace the headset bearings or change the whole thing to Hope if the bearings don't come out. I know it is still under warranty but I replace all my headsets with Hope ones as soon as they start to show wear and then the Hope lasts...

    ALLMTN7 - Headset Bearings

    Hi Sucker of chains, I have exactly the same problem as you and trying figure out if the bearings can be replaced or a new headset required. I have always used Hope in the past and never had one rust up in 20 years of MTB but this Acros one has gone in about 40 rides. Too and bottom, but as you...

    Ebike Insurance

    BIKMO cover you for accidental damage so if you stack on a downhill section and crack the frame, bust the rear mech or buckle a rim beyond repair, even loose the bike off the back of the car during transport then will either pay for repair or replace the bike.

    Ebike Insurance

    That's great news, I tried to add my ebike to my MoreThan home and contents and was told, after 2 weeks of checking with their underwriters that they would not include an ebike point blank.

    Ebike Insurance

    Is that a new for old replacement? Many insurers have it in the small print that once the bike is 1 year, 2 year or 3 years old they only pay a fraction of the original bikes cost. BIKMO guarantee new bike replacement irrespective of age.

    New bike day! Allmtn 7

    I think you are a little warped when it comes to what looks good. Everyone accepts that ANY mudguard look shite, you just have to accept that and move on. All you have achieved is smaller mud clearance. It won't be long and the ground will be dry enough to remove thos bad boys anyway :)

    New bike day! Allmtn 7

    Did you bed the brakes in properly before riding in the mud? I have the same bike and suffered the same howling brakes but after changing the pads and bedding in properly before my ride they are awesome. Better than my old Formula The One brakes or my Mag 7’s.

    New bike day! Allmtn 7

    Someone obviously didn’t watch the video on how to fit or you bought the wrong size. I have the same bike and mudguard and it’s fits like a dream with the original parts.

    Haibike Allmtn 6/7 upgrade

    I had the Whyte E160 first with the New Bosch 4th gen motor and swapped it for the Haibike AllMtn 7 with the Yamaha PWX-2. The Haibike is awesome value for money, the bike is spec’d to the hilt and rides like a dream. So much better than the Whyte. Both motors are amazing but the Yamaha without...

    New bike day! Allmtn 7

    I don’t use anything to help hold bike cover on (I have exactly the same bike) done about 600miles and it has never come off. Don’t see how it would, whenever I try to take it off it feels like I’m going to break a finger doing so.?

    Lights for Yamaha PW-X2 motor

    The Leyzne 1000 works great with the Yam PWX-2 on my Allmtn7. Really bright, simple to install and turns on and off using the light button on the Yamaha controller. The wire runs through the head tube grill down the down tube and connects to the wiring loom by the motor. Very easy access, just...

    Have you used them with a Yamaha PWX-2 motor or know any one that has successfully?

    Looking to derestrict my Haibike AllMtn7 2021

    Thanks for the tip. I have checked out the bikespeed website shop for E Bike tuning - bikespeed and they do have one. Has anyone any experience of using a bikespeed RS chip and have they ever had an error code stop the bike working?
