    Any idea what this is and do I need it

    This flicked off during yesterday's ride. Looks like it's just a cover, so the question is do I need it? Best way to put back on? With epoxy?

    2021 160TM Seatpost spacer or shim

    My seatpost clamp just won't hold up my seatpost and the spec torque. It never really has but has gotten worse. Has anyone used another clamp or tried using a shim? If you tried either, how'd you make out? Thanks

    2020 160 TM bottom bracket

    Need to grease the bottom bracket of my 2020 Hybrid 160TM. Anyone know if this is a pressfit bottom bracket or a screw in? I've never done this before but I have 1500 miles on it and it's long overdue. Thinking I should grease the head too. Never done either. Thanks

    What is this, and I'm assuming it's broken? 160TM

    Noticed this after a rough ride. Odd thing, if it's broken, is everything seems fine but it looks bad. Any idea what this is? Thanks

    2020 Hybrid 160 TM - how wide of tire would you go

    Getting a new wheelset and the rims will be Stan's Baron MK3. Was thinking of going wider tire like maybe a 2.8. If you went wider than the stock 2.6, did you have any issues?

    Change rear derailleur can that require a different chain length?

    Was just out in the garage taking off the NX and putting on X01 axs. But now it seems like the chain is WAY too short. I didn't change anything else so an surprised by this or did I just royally bugger it up?

    Cap that covers the charging port on the bike

    Anyone know where to buy these? Apparently my 160 never had one. This is for the charging port that's actually on the bike not the charger. Looks like it's a black plastic piece that clips on and since I don't have one my charging port is open to the elements. I have some dielectric grease...

    Seatpost tightness Hybrid 160 TM

    Have my seatpost tightened to the torque spec but it won't stay up and after it drops during the ride it seems to move around a TON more than you'd expect. I even borrowed a second torque wrench to confirm that mine wasn't just not accurate. Is anyone else having that issue? I'm going to put...

    Anyone swap to a shorter crank?

    Getting a ton of pedal strikes. Yeah, I know I need to do a better job of managing my pedal strokes but am thinking of going to a shorter crank and was wondering if anyone has done that and if so what you think about it afterwards? Thx

    Internal routed cables

    For cables like gears, shifter-> deraileurs, are those cables easy to replace without dropping the motor? Like can you push the new cable all the way though the housing and frame or do you need to take out the motor? Same for brakes and dropper post. Thanks

    Swap from SRAM to Shimano XT

    Pretty much destroyed my rear derailleur today and my long term goal was to go to XT anyway. Bike is a Cube Hybrid 160 TM with fulcrum rims and hubs. Is there a way to convert the rear hub to micro spline from XD? I can't really find any info on doing this with a fulcrum hub. If folks are...

    Pedal clearance

    Just curious what your pedal clearance is? Mind seems like it's only about 3". I'm talking about when your fully sitting on the bike and your one leg is fully extended so that the pedal is closest to the floor/ground. I'm amazed by how low this is.

    what tools did your 160 come with

    My 160 TM shipped today so should be here in about 5 days. Curious what tools yours came with. Did it come with a shock pump and torque wrench? It's shipping from Fly/Ride in LA so hopefully they didn't stuff any Rona in the fork lol.

    Hybrid 160 TM - any unboxing or assembly videos?

    140 vs 160

    Looking at either the 140 or 160 and I'm in a twix as to which is better for me. I'm not a hucker or going to hit big jumps but I'm a fat guy and weigh in at 270lbs. Some of my challenges, in addition to being a newb and out of shape, is that I struggle with the tight switchback turns. So I...

    Are derailers as important as they used to be

    Maybe that's not the best way to ask my question, but I used to ride MTB a lot about 15 years ago. I would only ride XT and my brakes were Hope Mini. At the time I wouldn't consider anything less than either due to reliability of shifting and braking. Is that the same today or has performance...
