Haibike SDURO HardSeven Life 4.0 2019 Ladies Electric Bike
The Haibike SDURO HardSeven Life 4.0 is a great entry level trails and XC women's electric mountain bike that will give you a taste for blasting around the countryside like you’ve never done before. Hills become a thrill not a dread on this machine – once you ride it you’ll never look back!
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?
You may have recently discovered how you can see more of the world in less time by going on an MTB. You may want to do rides that you might not be able to do on a traditional MTB. Without hammering the bank account the HardSeven Life 4.0 is the machine to get you out there!
Give me some detail!
10 speed Shimano Deore M6000 gears run over an 11-42 tooth cassette, allowing for some great gear ratios that will flatten even the hardest climbs and may even make hill climbs a fun new challenge.
Stopping power on the Haibike SDURO HardSeven Life 4.0 is provided with the Tektro M276 hydraulic brakes on 180mm front and rear rotors – these will slow you down even in the worst conditions you venture out in on your machine, and never overheat and fade as you do tricky descents.
For ironing out those lumps and bumps, 120mm travel SR Suntour XCR Air LO-R front shocks are ample for all but the hardest of terrains. With their lockout (controlled at the handlebar) this means you can switch between a harder setting for climbs and roads or a softer setting for the mucky, lumpy stuff.
On 27.5” wheels, the Schwalbe Smart Sam tyres have a great balance between grip on the loose, wet stuff yet won’t complain if you do several miles on roads (or even use it as a mostly road commuting machine…)
500 watt hour battery, Bosch Performance CX and Purion display.
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!
This is controlled through the Bosch Purion control system. This gives a range of data to you the rider, from estimated battery on a given power setting to distance left on that setting, as well as speed and distance covered. It really is all you need for a fun day out in the hills! With power just a click of the left thumb and the other data available with an easy to use thumb-joystick you can focus on riding not faffing about with the system!
