CUBE STEREO HYBRID 140 HPC PRO 750 Review

Bosch is the major motor manufacturer in the EMTB world, alongside Shimano - and it's no surprise, as the Performance Line CX Smart System shows. Steep ramps are no problem for the Bosch motor. Additionally, the Bosch Performance Line CX Smart System stands out with a very natural riding feeling and a dynamic power delivery. The well-tuned riding modes cater to bikers of all preferences. Thanks to the excellent range, you should no longer have any range problems.

As the hits get faster and harder the average chassis limits the downhill fun. The mid-range brakes from Magura do their job but could be a bit firmer. The power of the two pistons setup is only average. The drivetrain and components have a subordinate but not to be neglected importance when it comes to EMTB. Even the bike brand product managers know this and don't aim too high with mostly average components. When it comes to the geometry, CUBE does not go completely crazy. The head tube angle and reach values were chosen with care. The result: A balanced riding behaviour with a good combination of playfulness and straight-line stability.
