Great review! Do you still have your Trekking 8? I've just taken delivery of a 2023 model Trekking 8, which doesn't seem to be quite as well spec'd as yours - brake levers and forks especially. I'm definitely going to get a Suntour suspension post like yours. Just one more question, if I may - I know it's a personal thing, but how do you find the standard Haibike saddle for comfort?
I like mine - it's done +950 miles now. Though like the op I've changed various bit - I'm already thinking of changing the tyres since in the wet they can be a bit slippy on the road, the back brake appears to be quite grippy and on about 4 occasions I've had to correct the slip to stop the bike from sliding under me.
Can you tell me what diameter the suspension seatpost has? Did you use a reducing sleeve?
31.6 diameter. Standard for haibike
My 2023 Haibike Trekking 8 has a 34.8 mm seat-post, so I don’t think the Suntour suspension seat post will fit this model without a reducing sleeve 🤔
@@samadlone611.. not mine, unfortunately (34.8 mm)
