For the last few years, I have been carrying one of those orange Tubolito TPU tubes as a spare. I recently had to use it, and I couldn't get it to work. I have a Topeak pump with a screw on hose, and after pumping up the tyre, whenever I tried to un-screw the pump. the valve came out, very...
Hi All. As the title says, I have a Cube Stereo 160 TM. It is the 20" frame and came with a Cube 31.6mm 150mm Dropper.
This works very well; however, I have the feeling it is a little short. When doing steep technical rides, it would be nice if it went lower. At the moment I have it about 2 - 3...
I am a bit gutted that on day 2 of a 3 week biking holiday, I got error 500 on my Bosch cx gen 4 motor. It happens on day 2 of an 8 day transalp after biking 2 days in torrential rain.
Luckily it happened towards the end of the day in Austria, and we could turn around and easily ride to a nearby...
Thought I would post a thread about my 2021 transalp.
My Son and I are biking from home near Munich in Germany over the Alps, through Germany, Austria, Switzerland and Italy to Lake Garda.
Day one of our 2021 Transalp is behind us .
We started at 9:00am in rain and 10 degrees Celsius.
The first...
I got my software updated yesterday on my 2020 Cube Stereo
Motor upgraded to 1.1.5.0
Kiox 4.0.2.0
Battery 1.10.8.0
3 things I noticed:
The Bluetooth connection to the kiox definitely seems to be better. Mine would never connect automatically. I had to disable then enable the Bluetooth on my...
I did a bike ride with my wife yesterday in torrential rain. Everything was great. When I got home, I hosed the bikes down (with the shower wash, no pressure). Afterwards I went to turn my wifes bike on. and nothing happens.
Removed the Kiox and tried to turn it on, but it is dead as a...
I thought we could have a thread for general tips and tricks for Magura brakes.
Recently I have been having problems with bleeding my rear brakes. Just couldn't get all the air out for some reason. The brakes felt spongey and completely stopped working on me.
I think there were 2 reasons for...
I thought it might be good to have a general Kiox tips and tricks thread where people can add some info on for example customizing screens, making it easier to work with etc.
I'll start the ball rolling with a tip I got from here.
I like to be able to remove my Kiox for added security when I...
I tend to go adventure mountain biking with long rides and / or lots of vertical. So I am constantly keeping an eye on my battery to make sure I can make it to the end of my day. Or I carry a charger with me, and make a lunch break where I can load my battery for an hour or so (If I can find a...
I was looking at the latest EMTB magazine, and saw a picture of my LBS in an article about how the bike industry is not keeping up with demand. Actually the last 2 times I was there I said we could play a round of tennis in there. Normally it is so packed with bicycles that you can't get...
Thought I would start a new thread to document my 2020 transalp that starts on Sunday for if anyone is interested.
I have been planning it for the last few months, and now intensively getting my gear together and packing for 2 additional weeks of biking and windsurfing on lake Garda in Italy.
I...
My 7 month old Cube seems to have got water in the front bearings and they have gone rusty. I noticed that the front wheel was turning roughly. I want to order some spares but as there are so many on the market with hugely different prices, I have no idea what to look out for.
The bearings are...
I have asked this before, but not got a reply.
Does anyone know the part number for the Sram Hanger on the new Cube bikes.
I have bought a few and they don't fit.
First one I was sent the Shimano one, even though I ordered the Sram one. So I sent it back and got a sram one. But it doesn't fit...
I wanted a city cruizer, and as I tend to try to build most things myself (skis / snowboards / longboards etc) I decided to try building my own Bamboo bike.
You can either do it completely yourself, or do most of it in a weekend course. I opted for the course, as it saves shit loads of time as...
My new bike has Sram gears and the Hanger looks a little different from the spare one I have for the last bike. I have been scouring the internet and am not 100% sure which one I need to order.
Anyone know if this Is this the correct one?
I bought a cable over Amazon for charging my Phone from my Kiox display.
Got an AmazonBasics - Verbindungskabel, USB Typ C auf Micro-USB Typ B
Sunday I did a nice 50KM ride navigating with Komoot on my phone, and as the battery started to fail I whipped out my new cable and plugged it in.
And...
Just finished building a Bamboo Bike for my commute to work. I work sometimes in Basel Switzerland. Live in France as it is cheaper so bike about 6km to work each day.
Anyway I built myself this Bamboo City bike and pimped it up a bit. I built the frame at Bamboo Bicycle Club Munich. Read they...
It's the sort of thing I like to record.
On my wifes bike, the 140 HPC race, I found it on the back of the Motor mount in the wheel arch. It appears to be a sticker under the topcoat.
I haven't found it on my 160 HPC TM yet. Probably as it is a Matt coat it can't be as well protected.
Does anyone have any experience with the Kiox Heart rate monitor function.
I have a Garmin Fenix 3 which has a broadcast Heart Rate function.
I cannot find any information anywhere on how to connect a heart fate monitor to the Kiox.
Any clues or links to some documentation would be appreciated...
I decided to replace My Cube Stereo Hybrid 160 and my wifes Hardtail Treck Powerfly with the new generation 2020 models. Went to my LBS where I have spent about €9000 over the last few years to try out the new bikes. When it came to Price, I asked for a discount as a valued customer and as I am...
