Ex Demo Haibike SDURO Trekking 6.0
The top-end road-preferring electric hybrid bike in the Haibike range, the Haibike SDURO Trekking 6.0 Mens Electric Hybrid Bike is a great utility and fun ride. Equipped with some great components for longer rides including a 500 watt hour battery, this machine is designed for day in, day out riding with minimal fuss as you ride it hard.
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.
Trekking
Ranging from high quality hybrid road bikes to the more cross-country end of the electric hybrid and trekking end of the spectrum, the Haibike Trekking series is for those who want to carry a bit more with them on their journeys and may wish to travel in low light conditions.
Who’s this for?
You may be aware of Haibike’s reputation as a leading electric bike maker. You may be thinking of ditching the car for your commutes or runs into town. You may be older or of a certain age where you’re aware that you need to start taking care of yourself and want an electric hybrid bike that will flatten out the hills. Having said that these are a lot of fun to ride so you may choose to take the family out or merely keep up with the youngsters. Fancy a tour of your favourite British wilderness? This won’t let you down there either!
Detail
Yamaha allows for a two-derailleur system so you will find yourself changing gear on this machine as you would on a traditional hybrid. The drivetrain has a Shimano Deore XT T781 derailleur on the front and Shimano Deore XT T8000 at the rear, controlled by rapid-fire shifters on the handlebars. The rear cassette has a 11-36t cassette and 36-48 teeth on the front chain ring that between them allow for up to 20 different ratios for smoother change as you ride.
Stopping power is with the Shimano MT400 disc brakes on 160mm front and rear rotors – more than enough for the sort of riding this bike is designed to do.
The Haibike SDURO Trekking 6.0 Mens electric hybrid bike is designed for all weather riding, day or night. It has full mudguards on the front and rear, a sturdy pannier rack and for evening riding a very bright Haibike Skybeamer 150, 50 lux front headlight that with its rear light is plumbed into the main battery.
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 length 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 Multi 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.
