Hello.

I'm a 38 year old guy from Finland with very little biking experience from last 20 years. Before that I did bike alot tho.

I bought a ghost kato 2.9 last year and used it for few months. After that I sold it and got intrested in electric bikes due to govenment giving a 1000€ reward for scrapping a car and buying a pedelec.

So here I am now and a happy owner of a 2020 Haibike SDURO Hardnine 5.0.
Currently recovering from a cervical herniated disc so I only got 20km on it so far but will do alot more once I'm back in shape.

Let's hope it will be a great experience and perhaps I will try some trails and maybe get a full suspension at some point. I will most use this one for commuting tho or atlest that's my plan.

I guess this post got alittle long but yea.. that's me..

Picture is from first day when I got it in January.

Wow, nice!
We're done with snow here (Quebec) when does it normally go away where you live?
Congrats on the new bike!

It is spring here and in southern Finland where I live about 95% of the snow is gone. Maybe another week and it's all gone as the tempreture is between 0 and 10 celcius now.

And thanks, I hope it's a decent bike I bought.

Haibike are not available in Canada, but I think yours comes with the Yamaha motor which is the same that I have on my Giant Trance E. Great motor, powerful, smooth and reliable.
Hope you like it as much as I like mine!
