2022 NDuro 8 Freeride

[RoJo]

Has anyone ridden one? How do you feel about the long 460mm chainstays for a size Medium rider? There are so few reviews on the internet.
Any other better 180mm+ rigs that are better?

Hi Rojo the bike hasn’t been released in the uk yet , was told by a dealer that they should be out from October onwards , I put a deposit on one last January , so I have itch I can’t scratch.

Thanks. How you get it soon. The spec looks absolutely epic. I bet you can't wait!

Are you still getting yours? I was looking for an Allmtn for my wife and all of a sudden they just disappeared from the Haibike website, even in Germany, although the Nduro 8 and 7 are still available in the German site, there is nothing in UK. Some shops still have them for pre-order which is confusing.

 

[Keggie]

Yes I’m still getting it if it’s ever released
All the all mountain range is still available now or pre order in the uk

 

[RoJo]

Has anyone got one yet?

 

[Keggie]

Still not released yet here in the uk as far as I know

 

[RoJo]

I have one reserved for March but no news for a while. I've seen a guy on another thread with the NDuro 7

Pole Voima Is Incredible

I will be buying one for myself.

It's quite a lot more money particularly as the suspension alone on the NDuro 8 comes to nearly £3k. Would be great if Rob (or anyone for that matter) could get his hands on one to test.

 

[RoJo]

I have ohlins. It’s awesome but I also have RS and with the right tune it’s also just fine. I’m not riding at the bleeding edge of performance and I generally buy things at that level quite honestly to no significant avail.

In the end riding is 95% skill and 5% components.

So forsure you can get marzocchi suspension and save some cash.
Unless you ride better than the dudes I’ve ridden with that run of the shelf marzocchi. Julian Clauss on Instagram: "Late laps @alpenbikepark_chur 🫶"

Yep. I agree. It's going to make no difference. I just love the directness of Boxxers so excited by the prospect of dual crown DH38

I just heard from my bike shop that my Nduro8 order has been delayed from Wk12 to Wk28 2023
Is anyone else having more luck?

It's even been delayed until week 9 2024

 

[Bummers]

If you haven't got another bike to use whilst waiting I'd cancel and buy something else.

Crikey, that's one hell of a wait. Where did you hear that from?
Fortunately I picked up an eBay Merida E160 to replace my cracked one in order to tide me over.

 

[Keggie]

Yes e-bike shop site is now saying that the nduro 8 fr ships from 7th of August mmmmm considering I put my deposit down in January 22 the bike better be fantastic

I can't see any bikes out there that get close to this level of spec for the price. Hope it rides well

Sweet. Hope you get it soon. I'm waiting for a Medium, trying not to get excited as it might still be a while for me!
Be sure to give us reviews...

Tell us more! What was your previous bike and how does it compare? What's the drop on the post, and do you think there is room to fit a larger dropper?

Enjoy my friend, what a machine

 

[RoJo]

I've been told week 35 for size medium.
Considering cancelling and getting a Canyon Torque On or a Pole Sonni

Previously I had a 2021 Cube 160 TM. This bikes in a different league, just monstered the Ardrock enduro. Came standard with 150mm dropper but is currently being replaced for 200mm.
I did have to get the suspension set up by Ohlins as was struggling with rear sag.

Picked up my Nduro 8 this week, never had a bike feel so plush. What are people doing for an App? Seeing as Haibike arent interested in making an app for this bike, which is a pretty big fail. I see some people have matched up a ROX evo 11.1 with the interface- x, anyone running that setup?

 

[jamesm1980]

Found out that since the last Wahoo update I can now connect my Bolt V1 via bluetooth to get range, battery power and mode. It also shows the odo when you go to the app. .

Hi

Found out that since the last Wahoo update I can now connect my Bolt V1 via bluetooth to get range, battery power and mode. It also shows the odo when you go to the app.

Hiya, are you running an additional device to connect to the bike? As iv downloadEd the E-Sync App on my iPhone, it connects via bluetooth but won’t transfer data.

 

[jamesm1980]

Yep i use my Wahoo bolt V1 to connect and get gps for my rides.
I think there are some pretty poor instructions around somewhere on how to get the interface-x to give out different data over bluetooth. I think you have to hold down the walk button and select the bt mode. The Esync app is awful.
