As i am now the wrong side of 50, according to the opticians, i have to wear varifocal glasses full time. I asked about prescription cycling glasses suitable for mtb riders and was told to use prescription sunglasses. My question is, what options do i have? What do you, riders with varifocal...

2022 Focus Sam2 6.8. Have done just over 100 miles, with some steep decents and mixed dry, wet, muddy rides. Last ride the brake lever would pull back to the grips before getting bite. Adjusting the level arm position did not help (and was too far out to use). Purchased the SRAM bleed kit...

Have looked online and found the Sam2 6.8 bars are 35mm, 780mm length and, i think, 8deg rearword, 5deg upward. But i cant rise? Are the Sam2 6.8 bars 10mm, 20mm or 35mm rise?

Had the SAM 6.8 for just 55 miles and its back at the supplying store for a 3rd time, this time under warranty. After the first ride i couldnt get the battery out, so the lock was adjusted and the battery position tweaked. Second (short ride) the dropper post wouldn't work, so back for adjusting...

Had my Cube Stereo Hybrid 625 for just over a year and sold it last week. As confidence has grown on the trails and rides I found I needed an upgrade (and the medium frame was a little small in the cockpit). So now I'm bikeless. I have looked at the usual brands.... Trek, Specialised etc but...

I have sold my CUBE Stereo Hybrid and purchased an ex shop display 6.8. (small scratches to the dropper post saving £500). A few questions (fairly new to eMTB). * The dropper post lever on the handle bar, the inner cable sticks out, nearly past the lever. Dropper post is working. How do i push...

MTB Newbie. Current forks on the CUBE are RockShox 35 Silver, Tapered, 15x110mm, 160mm. Went out on my friends Specialized eMTB recently, with some rather expensive FOX forks and it felt a lot better on the rough stuff and going down hill. Less chatter and gave more confidence. Thinking of...

Cube Stereo Hybrid 160 HPC (2021). Current bars and stem are: Stem: Cube Performance Stem E-MTB, 31.8mm Handlebar: Newmen Evolution SL 318.25, 760mm How do you work out if a new bar and stem improve your ride, be more comfortable, improve handling? I dont want to spend a couple of hundred ££...

I have a 2021 Cube Stereo Hybrid 160 hpc race 625 and would like a quick release front wheel. Quick release, boost, non boost, different dimensions and sizes, im struggling to work out what i need. I have a SeaSucker coming next week and would like to make things easier with removing the front...

My first autumn riding an mtb/emtb. After yesterday's outing and hitting many, many puddles on the trail, i have made a list of "needs". Waterproof socks. Waterproof, windproof jacket. Waterproof trousers. Helicopter tape/frame protection kit With winter coming, my summer gloves need changing...

I am contemplating a GPS route planning devise as I would like to explore new routes, rather than sticking to designated cycle paths at cycle parks. Ideally to guide off paths at cycle parks plus be able to add routes I have seen on Kamoot. Don't want the bells and whistles, just be able to get...

Currently 3 days into my holiday in Somerset on the Jurassic Coast. Had a fall, spent 3hrs in A&E. Have a bust ankle, lump of flesh missing from my elbow and now on crutches. So no MTB riding for me for 4-6 weeks?. Stay safe everyone.

Newbie, queries. I have been to Sherwood Pines today on my CUBE STEREO HYBRID 160 HPC RACE 625. Did the Blue route, then a 30min break before doing the Red route for the first time. A few questions; -Is it best to have 1 or 2 fingers over the brake levers all the time? I use two but after a bit...

First ever eMTB. Picked it up last week and had its second run out this morning around Sherwood Pines. Only mods are pedals and a marsh guard. This bike has given me so much confidence on the trails over my last MTB, an analogue full suspension. Absolutely love it?

Should hopefully be getting a Cube Stereo Hybrid 160 hpc race 625 this weekend. First time eMTB. Could you give me some does/dont's, avoids, change that etc. Cleaning, does this differ from my current 2020 Calbra Bossnut? Essentials during a ride above a non e-bike?
