CUBE Stereo Hybrid ONE44 HPC TM Review

The Performance Line CX Gen. 5 from Bosch shows impressively that they shouldn't be limited to DIY and household products. No motor has shaped the EMTB boom as much as the Bosch CX. Since October 224, the 5th generation of the Bosch Performance Line CX has been available. Compared to the previous model, the motor is especially much quieter. While you can still hear a sound when pedaling uphill, the annoying high-frequency tones have finally disappeared. The gearbox no longer rattles on the downhill trails either. With its proven performance data of 85 Nm torque and over 6 watts of peak power, the motor provides ample power, even for the steepest uphill trails. Bosch has always been a leader in motor control, and the new CX demonstrates this as well. Although it doesn't reach the extremely fine tuning of the #DJI Avinox, Bosch remains one of the best brands on the market in terms of motor control. Additionally, the motor delivers powerful support even at low cadence. Thanks to the excellent range, you should no longer have any range problems.

A good chassis sits in rugged terrain and generates plenty of traction. That's exactly what the good Fox chassis in the Stereo Hybrid ONE44 HPC TM hits. When it comes to the brakes, CUBE reaches for the top shelf and instals premium brakes with four pistons and large brake rotors from Magura. At the drive components and the remaining parts, CUBE uses very good parts. The handling of the bike is pleasantly balanced due to the moderate geometry. This allows you to intuitively control the bike over the trails.
