Haibike SD HardNine 5.0 2020 Electric Mountain Bike
Fast yet comfortable, this SD HardNine 5.0 is definitely a machine for those who like to do miles and miles away from the road. 29ers make for great XC machines as they aren’t too bothered by the little lumps and bumps – with its 500Wh battery you can chew up many a mile indeed!
HardNine vs HardSeven
The SDURO HardNine series is for those who like to travel distances and won’t hit too many sharp turns/dodge too many tree limbs as you go along. As far as e-bikes go, the HardNine definitely prefers the hills to the trails!
The HardSeven with its all-rounder 27.5 inch wheels, while built for XC will handle the sharper turns of forest tracks a little better.
Yamaha PW-ST – new for 2020
100 grammes lighter than its 2019 brother, the Yamaha PW-ST is a country mile better. With four cadence sensors in the case, it can deliver power at speeds of more than 100RPM, a limitation of its predecessors.
In addition there is the new ‘auto-mode’ that allows you to leave the bike to decide as to the power setting it needs for different terrains. The unit can also detect how much power to deliver when starting so you don’t have wheel spin or pull a wheelie when you pull away.
This is all controlled with the Yamaha SideSwitch controller that is discreet and doesn’t show you so many parameters that you’re distracted from the job at hand – having a blast on the hills!
