Cube Stereo Hybrid 140 HPA SLT 500 27.5+ 2017 Electric bike

Combining cutting edge Bosch e-drive technology with plus-sized tyres and SRAM's unique, electric drive-specific EX1 transmission has resulted in a mountain-devouring, smooth-rolling and easy-handling MTB that'll put a grin on your face every time you ride.

Perhaps our design team's motto should be 'delivering the impossible' - because that's what they've done here. Applying all their experience in aluminium manufacturing technology and e-bike design, the CUBE engineers have created a chassis that combines clearance for 27.5+ tyres, 140mm of suspension travel, a perfectly integrated Bosch drive unit and battery, all in a package that's lively, responsive and great to look at.

It goes without saying that we started with the heart and soul of an e-MTB: the drive system. Bosch's CX drive unit delivers up to 75Nm of torque and, with an easy-to-use controller and powerful 500Wh battery, there's enough on tap to extend your riding range further than you ever thought possible. We combined it with SRAM's EX1 transmission, whose unique 8-speed 11-48 tooth cassette is specially designed to complement the characteristics of an e-MTB. A Fox 34 Float Factory fork and Float DPS Factory EVOL shock pair up to provide 140mm of easily adjustable, perfectly controlled suspension travel, while powerful Magura MT7 hydraulic disc brakes running on 180mm rotors will ensure you can slow and stop in complete safety. Finally, we added a RockShox Reverb Stealth dropper post, to ensure you'll always be able to choose the best line down the mountain - no matter how steep.
