Haibike AllMtn vs AllTrail vs AllTrack — Explained

AllMtn: Full-Suspension All-Mountain

AllMtn is Haibike's full-suspension family, spanning AllMtn 4 (from £4,200), AllMtn 6 (from £3,500), AllMtn 7 (from £3,200), AllMtn 9 (from £4,500), AllMtn 10 (from £6,800) and the Pinion-motored AllMtn CF 11 (from £5,500). Travel runs 150-160mm across the range, positioning AllMtn as Haibike's do-it-all full-suspension line.

The model numbers don't follow a strict good-better-best ladder — the AllMtn 7 at £3,200 and AllMtn 6 at £3,500 sit close together despite the numbering, so check the actual motor and component spec rather than assuming a higher number always means a better bike or a proportionally higher price.

AllTrail: Hardtail Trail

AllTrail is a hardtail family despite the similar name to AllMtn — the AllTrail 3 (from £2,500), AllTrail 5 (from £3,000) and AllTrail 7 (from £3,600) all skip rear suspension for a lighter, simpler trail bike, with motor spec climbing steadily across the three numbered variants.

AllTrack: Hardtail, Entry-Focused

AllTrack is also a hardtail family, but positioned slightly below AllTrail on spec — the AllTrack 4 (from £2,800) and AllTrack 5 (from £2,800) both use Bosch's lighter-duty Active Line Plus or Performance Line motors rather than the full Performance Line CX found further up Haibike's range.

NDURO: The Enduro Outlier

Not covered by the AllMtn/AllTrail/AllTrack naming at all, Haibike's NDURO family — NDURO 6, NDURO 7 and NDURO 8 — is the brand's dedicated enduro platform, with 170/160mm of travel, well beyond what AllMtn offers.

Which Family Should You Choose?

If you want full suspension for mixed all-mountain terrain, look at AllMtn. If you want a lighter, simpler hardtail and don't mind Haibike's value-focused motor tier, AllTrack is the more affordable option; AllTrail sits just above it with a stronger motor. If your riding is genuinely enduro-focused, skip all three and go straight to NDURO.

A Note on Haibike's Naming Convention

It's genuinely easy to see why these names get confused — AllMtn, AllTrail and AllTrack all start with "All" and share similar-sounding suffixes. Our advice: focus on whether the bike has rear suspension (AllMtn does, AllTrail and AllTrack don't) as the first filter, then narrow down by motor and price from there.

Full Range Comparison

Motor Spec Within Each Family

It's not just travel that varies within each Haibike family — motor spec climbs steadily too. Within AllMtn, the entry AllMtn 7 and AllMtn 6 run Yamaha's PW-X3, while the AllMtn 4 and AllMtn 10 have moved to Bosch's Performance Line CX, and the range-topping AllMtn CF 11 uses a completely different Pinion MGU gearbox motor — a genuinely distinct engineering approach worth understanding before you buy on price alone.

Within AllTrail, the entry AllTrail 3 runs a Yamaha PW-TE motor, while the AllTrail 5 and AllTrail 7 have moved to Bosch Performance Line and Performance Line CX respectively — so within a single hardtail family, you can find three different motor brands depending on which specific model year and spec you're looking at.

What the Pinion Gearbox Motor Means for the AllMtn CF 11

The Haibike AllMtn CF 11 stands apart from the rest of the range by using a Pinion MGU motor, which integrates a gearbox directly into the motor unit rather than using a conventional derailleur drivetrain. This is a genuinely different mechanical approach — proponents point to reduced maintenance (no derailleur to bend or index) and a lower centre of gravity, while the trade-off is typically a higher price and a shifting feel some riders need time to adjust to compared to a conventional derailleur setup.

Which Model Within Each Family Represents the Best Value

Within AllMtn, the AllMtn 7 at £3,200 offers the strongest value entry point with a full Yamaha PW-X3 motor. Within AllTrail, the AllTrail 3 at £2,500 is the most affordable route into Haibike's hardtail range generally, ahead of even the AllTrack family on pure price.

How Haibike Compares to Other Full-Suspension All-Mountain Brands

The AllMtn family competes directly with bikes like the Lapierre Overvolt AM 4.6 and general all-mountain category picks elsewhere in our range. Haibike's specific advantage is motor platform variety — Yamaha, Bosch and Pinion all appear across the AllMtn family, giving genuine choice that few competing all-mountain ranges offer within a single brand.

Frame Material Across the Haibike Range

Most Haibike models we stock use aluminium frames, keeping prices accessible across all three hardtail and full-suspension families — the AllMtn CF 11 is the notable exception, using a carbon frame alongside its distinctive Pinion gearbox motor, reflecting its position as the range-topping model.

Practical Buying Advice

If you're still unsure which Haibike family suits you after reading this, start by answering one question: do you want rear suspension? If yes, you're choosing within AllMtn (or NDURO for genuine enduro capability); if no, you're choosing between AllTrail and AllTrack based on budget and motor preference. This single question eliminates half the range immediately and makes the remaining decision considerably simpler.

Battery Capacity Across the Range

Battery capacity within each Haibike family generally scales with price and motor tier, though most models across AllMtn, AllTrail and AllTrack sit in a broadly similar 500-650Wh bracket. The range-topping AllMtn CF 11's Pinion gearbox motor uses its own dedicated battery system, distinct from the Bosch and Yamaha batteries used elsewhere in the range, which is worth knowing if you're thinking about spare batteries or range-extenders down the line.

As with any of our full-power bikes, expect somewhere in the region of 30-50km of assisted range depending on assistance level, terrain and rider weight, with the usual caveats around temperature and tyre pressure affecting real-world results more than most riders initially expect.

UK Servicing for Haibike's Range

Because Haibike's range spans Yamaha, Bosch and Pinion motors depending on model, servicing requirements vary more within this one brand than most others in our catalogue. Yamaha and Bosch both have well-established UK dealer networks; the Pinion gearbox motor on the AllMtn CF 11 is a more specialised system requiring a dealer familiar with that specific technology, which is worth confirming locally before committing to that particular model.

Our Recommendation Across the Range

For most riders, the AllMtn 7 represents the strongest all-round value in Haibike's current range — a genuine full-suspension all-mountain bike with a proven Yamaha motor at a price that undercuts several rivals with similar travel. If your budget and ambitions point toward AllTrail or AllTrack instead, the AllTrail 3 is the more capable of the two hardtail families for only a modest premium.

Componentry Differences Within Each Family

Beyond motor and travel, componentry climbs steadily with model number within each Haibike family — expect progressively better brakes, wider-range drivetrains and, on the higher-numbered AllMtn models, a dropper post included as standard where lower-numbered variants may treat it as an optional extra. This is worth checking on the specific model page rather than assuming from price alone, since Haibike's naming and numbering conventions genuinely take some getting used to.

Talk to Us If You're Still Unsure

Given how genuinely confusing Haibike's AllMtn, AllTrail and AllTrack naming can be at first glance, we'd rather you ask us directly than guess from the product names alone — contact us with your budget and whether you want rear suspension, and we'll point you to the specific model that fits, rather than leaving you to decode the naming convention yourself.

Every model discussed across AllMtn, AllTrail, AllTrack and NDURO is available to browse on our Haibike brand page, where you can filter by category, motor and price to find the right match once you've decided which family suits your riding.

Our Overall Take on Haibike's Range Strategy

Haibike's decision to offer three distinct motor platforms across its full-suspension AllMtn family alone — Yamaha, Bosch and Pinion — is unusual among the brands we stock, and reflects a genuine willingness to let riders choose based on motor preference rather than forcing everyone onto a single system. Whether that variety appeals to you or simply adds confusion likely depends on how much you already know about motor platforms before you start shopping, which is exactly why this guide exists, and why we'd always rather explain the differences directly to you in plain terms than leave you to decode them unaided from a spec sheet.
