Haibike SDURO FullSeven Life 3.0 2019 Ladies Electric Bike
With full suspension the Haibike SDURO FullSeven Life 3.0 is a women’s specific all terrain electric mountain bike. You might want it for cross country to minimise the pain on your thighs from the constant pounding on rough ground, but may well want to conquer some tougher trails where the rear wheel moving up and down is a necessity to stay on your 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.
HardSeven vs FullSeven
Haibike HardSeven electric mountain bikes are hard tail. FullSeven are full suspension.
Life!
Men and women are built differently, and Haibike have recognised this in building a line of electric mountain bikes that suit the woman without adding extra weight or making for any lower quality in the saddle as so many of the German company’s rivals seem to manage. The Life range is a real step up from those bikes that merely have a lower crossbar for you.
Who’s this for?
The Haibike SDURO FullSeven Life 3.0 is a serious cross country and marathon electric mountain bike for those who want to really explore the world – or may want to compete while they do it. Its 120mm front and rear suspension will make for a comfortable ride over longer distances where the only pain in your legs comes from exertion – not bruising!
Give me some detail!
120mm SR Suntour XCR Air LO-R front shocks will dampen the lumps through your arms while at the rear you have 120mm travel SR Suntour Unair EB LO-R damper. These can be locked out for hard surfaces and for climbing.
A 10 speed Shimano Deore M6000 gearing system runs over an 11-42t cassette making climbs a worry of the past – and for some people quite a thrill!
Slowing and speed control is managed with the Tektro M276 hydraulic brakes that use 180mm front and rear rotors – these will never overheat or fade in almost anything you throw at them.
Perhaps aware that the SDURO FullSeven Life 3.0 is going to get a bit of heavy use, Haibike have equipped this machine with Schwalbe Tough Tom tyres on its 27.5 inch wheels that should take all but the most determined blackthorn or barbed wire barb before it lets you down.
500Wh battery, Yamaha PW-SE motor and Side Switch display
This bike comes with a Yamaha 500 watt hour battery that is ample for longer rides where you’re not embarrassed to ask for the odd push of full power as you get about. Rechargeable in just a few hours, you can plug it in in the evening and have a full battery for your next day in the saddle.
The Yamaha PW-SE is a development on the tried and tested Yamaha PW motor and delivers just the power you need where and when you need it. Economical yet delivering just the right amount of power when you need it, this power system is perfect for road and trail alike.
The Yamaha Side Switch display is an LCD screen that shows all your parameters in one place so with just a quick glance you can see just what you want, be it battery life, power setting, speed or distance travelled. You control the power output of the motor with a flick of a switch from your right thumb.
