Haibike SDURO Trekking 7.0 2018 Mens Electric Trekking Bike
A great road tourer or longer distance commuting bike, the SDURO Trekking 7.0 2018 Mens Electric Trekking Bike can do long distances every day without leaving you completely worn out.
Features for 2018
Built around the Bosch CX 250W motor and the 500W battery, this electric trekking bike is about comfort and reliability. 100 mile days in the saddle are feasible though you will break a bit of a sweat as you doggedly keep the motor in a low setting on the bigger climbs. For most commuting of 10-15 miles each way this is a great bike that might only be charged every couple of days.
A Shimano 11 speed drivetrain is attached to a 11-42t cassette, allowing for a good set of ratios from a fast small ring to a big ring that will allow for economical riding even up the bigger climbs.
Speed control is managed with the Maguro MT4 hydraulic disc brakes, that are on a wide range of Haibike’s better machines due to their relative light weight and great stopping power in the wet or dry. Compared to Vee brakes, they require a lot less maintenance.
To smooth out the bumps, you have Suntour NCX forks with a 63mm of travel that should absorb all but the most obnoxious of potholes on the UK’s roads.
Unlike the lighter weight SDURO Cross 7.0 this bike resembles in so many ways, it has mudguards as standard, panniers and a lighting system that is wired into the electrical system of the trekking electric bike. If you want something lighter to chuck around the country lanes at weekends then the SDURO Cross 7.0 may be the answer while for utilitarian or longer leisure rides this would be the machine for you.
Bosch CX and Intuvia eBike power system
The 250 Watt Bosch CX crank motor peaks at 75Nm, kicking like a mule when you need that extra boost. The 500Wh battery on the lowest power setting should give you around 100 miles of mixed riding as you need. The Bosch CX motor is complemented by the Intuvia control and power system that is smaller yet provides just a few parameters for a quick look as you enjoy your day in the saddle.
