I have the 2021 model and the bikes been great. Good range and I love the Bosch motor. I have had mine since October and I have had no issues in over 800 miles. I have changed the forks for a set that are a kilo lighter and changed the tyres to tubeless so far. You would be saving £500 on a new...

I bought mine without trying one. Best thing I ever done. ?

Still loving it. One from a 30m ride this morning.

Exactly what I am looking at to upgrade on mine. Been getting out on my acoustic bike that has Rockshox Reba forks and they put the Suntours on my Cube to shame. Any idea if the forks on the Cube have a tapered steerer tube before i take it apart to have a look? ? Managed to find that it’s a...

I wear these at work as they are the only glasses that don’t mist up to bad when wearing a mask. Bonus is you can remove the grey part of the glasses with the foam padding if it’s to warm.
