Haibike revises the Hybe

Haibike Hybe 11

Haibike is switching into "superhero mode" for the 2026 model year. The new Hybe has a revised design, a fresh motor and display setup with an integrated Kiox 400C unit and is set to perform even more confidently on any trail with more power, control and agility.

The Haibike Hybe has been updated for the 2026 model year with a new motor and display setup, revised design and noticeably improved trail performance. Developed for demanding riders, the E-MTB is designed to deliver a powerful, precise and agile riding experience - from technical uphills to steep, rough descents. Two variants are available: Hybe CF 11 and Hybe CF 9, each with new updates and a fresh color design.

The Hybe positions itself as a versatile trail all-rounder and points to sporting successes: Haibike athlete Tom Öhler used it to cross more than 15 peaks in one day and set an official RID world record after 14 hours, 102 kilometers and 5550 meters of altitude. The Hybe is also named as the winning bike at the UCI Mountain Bike World Championships (Anna Spielmann) and the European E-MTB Enduro Tour (Andrea Garibbo). For 2026, it is set to become even more competitive with the Bosch Performance Line CX Race motor.

In terms of design, Haibike has opted for a modern geometry concept and a lightweight full carbon frame. Progressive kinematics and a short rear end should ensure playful agility and good traction on climbs, millimetres of travel at the front and 160 millimetres at the rear, a mullet wheel setup and short chainstays. The cockpit remains "clean": the Bosch Kiox 400C display is integrated into the top tube.

A key feature is the motor-frame integration: the drive unit is mounted at an 85-degree angle from above, which should enable a low center of gravity and balanced weight distribution. In addition, the design allows the battery to be removed when the down tube is closed and underlines the highly integrated frame design. In the carbon construction, Haibike combines a main frame designed for stiffness with a rear triangle that is intended to support grip and precise handling via controlled flex.

The top model Hybe CF 11 comes with Bosch Performance Line CX-R (100 Nm) and performance-oriented equipment. Sram Maven Ultimate brakes, a stiffer front frame triangle and carbon handlebars ensure control and safety. The suspension features RockShox ZEB Ultimate (170 millimetres) and RockShox Super Deluxe Ultimate (160 millimetres). The Hybe CF 9 uses the latest generation of the Bosch Performance Line CX motor and relies on RockShox ZEB Base Rush RC, S1000 Eagle Transmission and Sram Maven Bronze brakes for reliable performance.
