I have been a bicycling enthusiast since I was a small boy some 65 years ago. A recent knee injury and surgery adversely changed my life. My trusty Trek Hybrid is no longer a comfortable ride. My road and mountain bikes are off the table as well. A friend and local bike shop owner told me about Tern and how impressed he is the company and their bikes. I was not interested at that time. After a painful ride on the Trek the other day, I headed over to the bike shop. A few test rides later have me convinced. A good work out with pain free knees, and really fun. I am now certain the HSD S11 is my ticket back to healthy knees and enjoying bicycling once again. I will head to the shop right after Labor Day and purchase an S11. Great machine and a great company!

I want one! HSD was already good and they seemed to have made it even better. Can someone tell where this clip was filmed? Specifically around 2:05 mark? I want to visit there! So beautiful!

Annecy, France! (unfortunately, I'm not sure the exact spot you mentioned, I'll see what I can find out)

I thought this looked familiar! I was in Annecy about 30 years ago. Some of the best restaurants in France are in that region. And the lake is absolutely beautiful.

Great bicycle by all means! Though not that many of us are able to take our bikes with us to our place of work. For starters not everyone works in an office. When thinking about security of our bicycles and a possible theft tern HSD/GSD or any other expensive bicycle out there seem to only work for middle class or for people work from home. I am thinking of purchasing tern and booked a ticket and a hotel to travel to a different city to try these bicycles out. But as a magnet for thieves makes me the future owner of tern very concerned. How can I leave it outside of work for nine hours? 3 locks, gps device from PowUnity, good insurance is the very least of things to have in place. May need to find an office job 😅 Replacing a car isn’t as straightforward as one may think.

Hi! We completely understand your very real worries and anxiety about security, and it is something the entire bike industry is grappling with at the moment. While not a total solution, the new Bosch Smart system comes with a excellent package of enhancements built right into the HSD. The electronic lock activates automatically when you park, disabling the e-bike system and helping prevent theft. Your smartphone serves as the no-fuss digital key for unlocking the bike. S-Class models also include a high- decibel alarm with flashing LEDs to deter tampering, along with text notifications and GPS tracking in case the bike moves significantly.

Please could you recommend a car carrier in the U.K. that would carry an HSD and another standard ebike weighing 26kg?

Wow. I just bought an NBD S5i literally yesterday and sold off my Hsd s8i. These new security features are nice. Are the older models able to get the security features added on?

Hi SP! Unfortunately, the older HSDs are not upgradeable to the new Bosch Smart System.

@@ternbicycles Thanks. This also means that the NBD model is also not compatible with the new Bosch Smart system correct?

Hopefully someday, a bike company (maybe yours 😉) creates a trade in program for owners of other brand electric bikes to trade up for one of these nice rides.

Gen1 HSD owner here. Bit disappointed in the new version: No dual battery option, no 85nm Gen4 Bosch, no Megura dual piston brakes, no Rohloff option, no full-auto Automatiq option, no Kindernay hub in USA - it just feels like they are determined to de-feature it compared to the GSD. Why?? - some people only need 1 passenger, prefer a smaller, lighter bike rather than the heavy long-tail GSD - but want the same options/ extras. Some bad niche marketing decisions were made here. Upgrade the options/ choices please Tern!
