    2025 Cube Stereo Hybrid ONE44 HPC TM 800 or Hybrid One44 AT 800

    After helping a friend on trying to buy a new E-Bike, I've had my head turned as well by those new 2025 Cube Stereo Hybrid One44 800 models, I'm particularly liking the HPC AT 800 which has amazing spec and looks great in the dark and gold colours, only problem is the price but there are a few...

    2025 Cube Stereo Hybrid One44 HPC Race 800 or One44 HPC SLX 800 dilema.

    Thats interesting, is it a discount code for the 15% as there's no discount on their site on any 2025 Cubes?

    2025 Cube Stereo Hybrid One44 HPC Race 800 or One44 HPC SLX 800 dilema.

    How does that work, I mean ordering from a German site, won't you have to pay the import charges and VAT thus negating the 15% discount?

    2025 Cube Stereo Hybrid One44 HPC Race 800 or One44 HPC SLX 800 dilema.

    Thanks, thats one of the ones he has discounted as he wants the newer frame and motor, as good a deal it is its just one he's turned away from.

    2025 Cube Stereo Hybrid One44 HPC Race 800 or One44 HPC SLX 800 dilema.

    So having initially looked at two other bikes for a for a friend and been advised of their inherent issues then my friend who is looking to get his first E-Bike is now looking at a couple of the new 2025 Cube's. He's not wanting anything for extreme downhills but some climbing, trail riding and...

    Specialized Levo Comp or Cube Stereo Hybrid One55???

    Hi, I'm looking for some advice which can hopefully help a good friend decide which bike to go for. Basically similar to myself, a slightly painful knee stopped him biking but now he's liking the idea of an E-Bike having tried mine out. So he's narrowed it down to a Specialized Levo Turbo Comp...

    Other Trek Rail 5 EBike 500w charging question

    I’ve figured it out, so they supplied a 2 pin plug for the charger, I stuck it in my uk to euro adaptor plug, and no sign of life. Then realised it was a 1 amp fuse in the plug so just nipped to B&Q and bought a charger cable with a uk plug fitted With a 3 amp fuse. Works a treat now and...

    Other Trek Rail 5 EBike 500w charging question

    Ok I’ll try that but does the prion screen show a charging symbol when the battery is installed in the bike do you know? Taken the battery out and stuck it on charge again, not seeing any of the green lights blink tbh. Starting to suspect I’ve got a duff charger?

    Other Trek Rail 5 EBike 500w charging question

    I got a euro 2 point plug supplied with mine, I’ve used a uk shaver plug adapter and I’m not seeing any green lights blink on or off on mine, it’s been charging for a good 90 mins and it’s still stuck on 2 bars on the purion display? I’ve also taken the battery out and pressed the button to wake...

    Just taken delivery of my Trek Rail 5 Deore, its come with a Bosch charger which has a euro 2 point plug so I’ve stuck that into an adaptor I had. The display shows two bold bars on the battery but my question is, when charging do you get a charging symbol or a green light on the battery or...

    Full suspension or hardtail for light trail and road use.

    Perfect thread to find, i've just placed an order for the same Whyte bike but after doing some research and a few hundred pounds more i'm going to change my order for the Trek Rail 5 Deore as there are so many people saying the same things about the rear wheels on trails. Also came across...
