RIDE REVIEW I HUSQVARNA HARD CROSS LE
P98
Forget the gym.
The Husqvarna Hard
Cross LE is way more
fun when it comes
to training.
spikes. This is good for build-
ing a strong pre-season base or
recovering after a long weekend
at the races. Rides can also last
longer since you're not expelling
so much effort on a few climbs.
With help from the electric mo-
tor underneath, you can handle
a longer duration with roughly
the same effort.
The electric bicycle scene
is growing fast, and for good
reason. E-bikes are easy to use,
allow new riders to get into the
sport, and they're just plain fun.
It's even better when it's from a
brand we know and trust, like
Husqvarna. Shoot, even the gear
we're rocking is from Fly Racing
which is obviously well-known in
the moto world. We love seeing
our two passions collide and
think it's a win-win for everyone
involved. If you still haven't rid-
den an e-bike, we highly suggest
you try one. Who knows, we
just might see you atop the local
Strava leaderboard.
