Haibike SDURO Cross 9.0 2019 Mens Electric Bike
Top of the SDURO Cross range of Haibike electric bikes, the Haibike SDURO Cross 9.0 Mens Electric Cross Bike is a great road machine that is very happy on forest and farm tracks as well as byways. This allows you to have fun off-road while being able to travel more quickly on-road than an MTB machine.
SDURO vs XDURO
In recent years Haibike have decided to make it easy for the rider to choose between its lines of electric bikes. The XDURO series is for people who take riding seriously and won’t want to be left out in the rankings. Meanwhile the SDURO series is for those who may still be fit as a fiddle but are more weekend mud warriors than people who eat, sleep and breathe riding.
Haibike Cross series
Haibike have made what may be termed a ‘serious hybrid’ in the Cross series for enjoyable riding on road yet can chew up the countryside on legs between the road – a cyclocross bike in short. This can make it a good commuter, or a machine that you can take on family rides with to keep up with the youngsters!
Who’s this bike for?
You may be the sort that enjoys rides around the countryside with shorter off-road sections – as a fun machine this does it in style. You could be a commuter who has the odd non-metalled section on your run to work, or you could be a cyclocross athlete looking for a lower impact machine to train on, putting in the miles without stressing your muscles so much.
More detail please…
The best specced machine in the SDURO Cross series, the Haibike SDURO Cross 9.0 Mens electric cross bike is a machine that loves the road and track in equal amounts. Its grippy Schwalbe Super Moto X on 27.5 inch wheels will drive over the lumps and bumps yet with lower rolling resistance than wider MTB tyres can go faster on the road.
Helping smooth out those rough country sections is the 80mm travel SR Suntour Mobie E45 LOR front shocks with lockouts for different terrains on your rides.
With the Bosch Performance CX drive unit, the 11-speed Shimano Deore XT M8000 drivetrain will flatten out the hills and allow you to push farther, faster and harder than you might on a traditional cross bike. Stopping power is provided by Magura MT4 disc brakes on 180mm rotors.
Intuvia display
Built for those who don’t want to worry about every single parameter of their ride this simple, clear LCD display tells you just the basics for your ride. Battery capacity and estimated battery distance, speed and power setting are all in one spot for you to see with a quick glance.
500 watt hour battery, Bosch Performance CX motor
Your 500 watt-hour battery will give you a good 50 miles of mixed terrain riding – a lot more if you put more into the pedals and ask less of the motor! Batteries are easily swapped out using a special key so for a big day in the saddle you might want to carry another. They can be charged in just 2 hours using the supplied fast charger.
The 250W Bosch ePerformance CX is built with the trails in mind. It gives a little extra power at lower cadences for when you need that extra kick to get up to speed, while cutting out briefly during a gear change to protect the chain as you need to kick a little harder on those climbs. With a peak output of 75Nm of torque (up to 300% the wattage you put into the pedals) you can really shift when you need to, too!
