Overview
The Pole Hiisi 173 Core (€14,498) is the entry build of the Hiisi: Maxon Air S (90 Nm) with 600 Wh, RockShox ZEB Ultimate fork, RockShox Vivid Ultimate shock, SRAM GX Eagle AXS T-Type and SRAM Maven Ultimate brakes.
The Hiisi is Pole's full-power e-MTB: every frame part is CNC-machined from solid 7075-T6 aluminium and structurally bonded without welds (±0.05 mm), and each bike is built to order in Jyväskylä, Finland. It uses the Maxon Air S motor (90 Nm, 620 W peak, 2.0 kg) with a 600 Wh internal battery; a 250 Wh range extender is available.
The Hiisi 173 complete builds run 173 mm of rear travel with a 180 mm fork on 29-inch wheels, in frame sizes K1, K2 and K3; geometry is set within each size from the rider's measurements. The wider Hiisi platform covers 152 to 200 mm of rear travel, and Pole quotes about two months from order to shipping.
