    Near Burrator Reservoir on Dartmoor. The descent to here from Whiteworks is an epic.

    Bosch gen4 2021 85nm upgrade?

    I had the upgrade. It feels more responsive in tour but I haven't really had the chance to test the higher levels. An interesting point from the lad who did the upgrade. He said that the 85nm only gets put on bikes with 165mm cranks. I also got the wife's Reaction done whìch has 175mm cranks...

    Larger front chainring

    This is the clearance between chainring and chain stay with a 38t chainring. I think a 42t would be too close for comfort.

    Bosch gen4 2021 85nm upgrade?

    Has anyone done the 85nm upgrade yet? The shop we got the wife's Cube reaction from said they will do the upgrade for free so keen to try it but would like some input as to weather the benefits are worth the possible extra battery use. Cheers.

    Hi, to my fellow cube hybrid owners.

    Thanks for the welcome, the bike on the Purbecks on two very different rides.

    Larger front chainring

    Maybe, but 600 miles in on the 38T and no problems with chain tension in any gear.

    Larger front chainring

    I fitted a 38T (34T originally) chainring to my 140 with no problems in any gear. The chain on the 140 is the same length as the one fitted to the wife's Reaction which came with a 38T chainring.

    Finally made a decision!

    It's a 2020, I think I'll go for the 2021 motor software update if possible though. I've done 40 mile days and returned with 50% battery but mostly ride on eco mode. I changed the saddle for a Brooks B17 as the original was not suiting me and the B17, once broken in is the only saddle I can do...

    Finally made a decision!

    I think you've made the right choice, I bought the same bike back in March and 1300 miles later am loving every minute on it.

    Levo Gen 2 Braking noise on new Turbo Levo Comp - looking for advise

    I had the same thing with the wife's Cube, nothing I did would cure the howling brakes until I swapped the O.E pads for Lifeline replacements. An instant cure.

    Cube Stereo 140 Tm Newbie

    Nice one, I too was recently tempted into e-mtbing by a discounted 140 and am loving it so far. I think you will too.

    Hi, to my fellow cube hybrid owners.

    Hi all, I've just signed up to the forum. I got a stereo 140 hpc back in March and have clocked up over 1300 miles on it through lock down and furlough. Mostly on the Purbecks and New Forest. The 140 seems very popular, I can appreciate why. I had no idea how much fun an E-mountain bike could...

    Hello to everyone, another stereo 140 owner and newcomer.

    Hi, I've been enjoying my Cube e-bike for a few months now and saw this forum so signed in. There's lots of stuff to learn, and this looks like just the place to learn it. The beers are on me?.
