Haibike Lyke 2025

From £5,699

The Lyke is Haibike's lightweight trail eMTB, and for 2025 the whole range moves to a carbon frame with the compact Fazua Ride 60 drive tucked into the seat tube and a removable 480Wh battery in a closed down tube. With 140mm of travel front and rear, full 29in wheels and a moderate 65 degree head angle, it sits as a quick, climbing-focused light assist bike rather than a heavy full-power machine.Three builds span a wide spread. The CF 10 (£5,699 / 6,999 euro) pairs a RockShox Lyrik fork with SRAM NX Eagle mechanical shifting and SRAM DB8 brakes on WTB rims. The CF 11 (8,000 euro) steps up to a FOX 36 fork, FOX FLOAT SL shock, Shimano XT four-piston brakes with a 203mm front rotor, an XT mechanical drivetrain and DT Swiss HX 1700 wheels. The flagship CF SE (13,000 euro) is the technology showcase, running RockShox Flight Attendant electronic suspension front and rear, SRAM XX Eagle AXS wireless shifting, a Reverb AXS post and DT Swiss HXC 1501 carbon-hooped wheels.Geometry is consistent across the four sizes, with reach growing from 424mm on the S to 506mm on the XL and a steepish 77.3 degree effective seat angle to keep the rider over the pedals on climbs. The shared 65 degree head angle and 140mm travel give it a balanced trail stance that favours efficiency and agility over outright descending bias.

Geometry read

What the numbers mean on the trail

Computed from this bike's geometry, spec and build kit — reach, wheelbase, chainstay, head and seat angles, travel, motor, weight and the fork/tyre/brake spec — and worked out per size, because a fixed chainstay can make an S and an XL feel very different.

Size

Descending

A solid all-round descender (65° head angle, 140mm) — capable in the rough and steep without being an all-out bruiser.

Playfulness

A fair bit of pop, but happiest on flowing trail rather than trials moves.

Size balance

Not enough geometry on record to judge size balance.

Technical climbing

Climbs well — a 77.3° seat keeps the front planted. 450W of peak power and 60Nm of torque.

Best suited toAll-round trail riding across mixed terrain.

No single standout trait — a balanced, versatile bike.

Watch out forNo major red flags in the L geometry.

The numbers are well balanced for its category.
