HYBE 2025
How current the bike is — newer chassis, motor and battery score higher. 10 = brand-new, 0 = legacy.
The HYBE is Haibike's race-bred carbon enduro eMTB, built around a Bosch Performance Line CX motor (600 W, 85 Nm) and a sizeable 800 Wh PowerTube battery rotated into the frame for a low centre of gravity. With 170 mm up front and 160 mm at the rear, a mullet wheel setup and a 64.5 degree head angle, it is squarely aimed at steep, technical descending. The 450 mm chainstays are kept short across every size, while reach grows in tidy 30 mm steps from 421 mm (S) to 511 mm (XL).
Two carbon builds make up the 2025 range. The flagship CF 11 at 8,399 GBP runs a RockShox ZEB Ultimate fork and Super Deluxe Ultimate shock, wireless SRAM GX Eagle AXS T-Type shifting, powerful four-piston SRAM Maven Ultimate brakes and a RockShox Reverb AXS dropper, plus carbon Raceface bars and DT Swiss HX 1501 wheels. It is a fully wireless, top-tier kit.
The CF 9 at 6,599 GBP shares the same carbon frame, motor, battery and 170/160 mm travel, but trades down to a ZEB Select fork, Super Deluxe Select+ shock, SRAM DB8 brakes, an S1000 AXS T-Type mech, WTB rims, an alloy bar and a 125 mm Limotec dropper. For a 1,800 GBP saving you keep the core ride and electronic shifting, giving up some fork tune, brake power and dropper travel. Riders prioritising value over the lightest, highest-spec parts will find the CF 9 the sensible pick.
