Hi there, Unfortunately, the paint (lime color) of my HB has began to chip :( :( :( I have reported it to HB support team and they kindly responded with informations about the paint to help me finding it. I attached the picture they sent me for reference. I have contacted the paint manufactures (Tiger) to ask them a sample in order to do some touchups, but I am still waiting for their response. I would like to know if that is something you guys have experienced, and if it's the case, where have you found your matching paint (especially the LIME color ;) ). Also, do you have tips to perform touchups (is there a technique to get a clean result? Specific primer to use?) Thanks!

I just found a much more ergonomic and powerful technique of shifting my grip. When my body is upright I have my thumbs wrapped under the handlebar for a powerful grip. When leaned forward and my hips are close to the handlebar (for ascents and accelerations) I bring my thumbs up and rest them on the top of the handlebar (pointing at each other). It's a subtle change but it feels much better. And as a general point it took me a while to figure out how to orient my right hand for firm grip and effective braking. I've found the gripping the handlebar with my right thumb and pointer finger while using the other three digits to squeeze the brake lever keeps me firmly on the handlebar with enough leverage on the brake lever to control the brakes (and without those three fingers on the handlebar I can squeeze the brake lever all the way in without running into those fingers; very important for strong braking).

Do you have sellers or you know where i can buy in Mexico City?

Hi, i am 184cm and i have a halfbike size S ( second hand i wasn't lucky to find M size). I already seen here that admin says 6cm different between the sizes make big difference when driving. Wanted to know if this will be huge problem for me. And how harder will be for me to learn on size S instead M (what is actually for my height) tnx.

To me dela gibčnega in fit,vožnja pa vedno navdušuje... Evo...pa si poglejte...

hi! I dont have a halfbike yet, but I am looking forward to it... I have a question... how does the halfbike works going uphill? do you find it too hard?... I have to take a couple of uphills here and there in my usual rides... thanks everybody!

Hi friends/halfbikers, Been riding my awesome halfbike for a couple months and still loving it. I enjoy watching people's faces when they see me ride past them. Sometimes I will even turn around and ask them if they know about this and if they want to try it. Nobody realizes that the front wheel is fixed and when i show it to them - they ask "HOW DO YOU STEER???". It gets better from there. Recently, I MODified my bike, i.e. added a couple things to let me stay out there longer. I added a water bottle, a funky horn, a quick-dry cloth, a dangling info card and a tool kit. The horn is my favorite - it draws a lot of attention and makes weird loud funky honks. A real crowd pleaser. OK. Gotta run/ride. Talk soon. Hope you enjoy your Halfbike. Cheers

A few weeks ago the rear part of my halfbike broke. I couldn't ride my bike any longer. I wrote to the company and also posted a picture of the dammage. A week later i got the superb news that halfbike would send me the rear part for free, because this dammage wasn't something normal. Yesterday the part arrived and I managed to assamble the halfbike again. Now I can have long rides with my new perfect halfbike François Loppem - Belgium

As a Zumba instructor, aside from Zumba Halfbike riding is my ultimate FUN, joyful work out activity.

I've been riding for some time now and I was wondering if I could do it. How stable would the bike be? Thank you! : )

Anyone in Tel Aviv?

Hi - I have been emailing Halfbike to have a spare part shipped - but getting no response. Any suggestions?

Let know if you know anyone who may sell the halfbike at HK or Macao
