This is what a reliable, low-maintenance & affordable urban pedal-assist e-bike looks like
- & for 2017 weve upgraded the gears from 7 to 8-speed. The CUBE Travel Hybrid provides superbly reliable, easy-to-use & environmentally friendly mobility. Its all thanks to an innovative & comfortable frame, state-of-the-art Bosch drive & battery technology & high quality, comfortable finishing components. We used state-of-the-art measurement technology to analyse the impacts & effects of the Bosch motor on the frame, as well as taking into account the riders behaviour as they control the bike. Using this information, we designed the frame around the specific requirements of the drive system. The result is an incredibly stable step-through aluminium frame with amazing steering precision, thanks to an oversized hydroformed down tube, strengthened bottom bracket & head tube sections, double chainstay & double chamber seat tube. We based this bike around Boschs Active Drive Unit with a 400 Wh battery as standard
- & you can upgrade to 500 Wh for extra range. The combination of 8-speed Shimano Nexus hub gear & hydraulic Magura HS11 rim brakes makes for low maintenace, safe riding
- & we added a Hebie Chainglider to fully enclose the drive system, meaning you wont need to clean the chain or risk getting any oil on your clothes. The CUBE suspension seatpost, Selle Royal saddle, CUBE handlebar & Suntour NEX suspension fork all add that extra little bit of comfort. An Abus frame lock keeps your bike safe from theft
- & weve ensured that it uses the same key as the battery lock. Busch & Mullers modern LED lights can be controlled from the handlebar display & draw their power directly from the Bosch system battery. A Racktime Eco luggage rack adds cargo-carrying versatility, while Schwalbes Spicer tyres provide both comfort & grip when you need it most.
