Welcome. Interesting that you're from Utah. Heard that Park City (only northern UT that I know) was particularly harsh on emtb access on singletrack and most of the other trails are USFS/BLM. Do you just ride the motorized stuff?

No kidding about the eMTB collection. Building an eMTB stable or is it a family on eMTBs? xD

Haven't seen Cube dealers in the US. Only saw one Cube bike in person, which was bought and shipped from the UK (CRC). It had a neat way to route the rear brake line, around the dropout, and had a ton of room to drop the seat post compared to what I've seen.

Thanks for the welcome Varaxis, I ride the mountains located on the northern part of the Wasatch Front so don't know much about what happens in Park City. Some of the peaks that I have ridden would include Grizzly Peak, Willard, Ben Lomond, Lewis & Malan's. The Cube is 27.5 x 2.4, the Trek 29 x 2.35 & the Haibike is 27+. The suspension & wheel sizes on the three are setup different for the types of riding that I do. The Cube is from the UK as well.

Thanks. Yes, the Yamaha motor seems to have smoother / stronger response at a lower cadence. I use this for steep technical climbs. Using a slower cadence with a ratchet, trials type cranking technique & a higher gear works great for super techy, slick or snowy type conditions where the Bosch motor works better for a sustained high cadence type load.

sounds good, I have noticed since using an E mtb, I can go up very steep climbs or over ground I would have more trouble. makes it more fun & easier. what range do you get from full battery?
