Best way to deal with bosch CX motor issues is to ride them however you like... And then when it breaks, send it to @Bearing Man to switch out the motor for a new one! Always worked well for me! I moved up north last year but when this current motor dies, I'll go all the way to Hampshire just...
It's technique. I have a 26kg full squish full power emtb and can bunny hop it over a foot on the flat if I needed to. The lift to the rear wheel is generated from your feet pulling the rear wheel up by the pedals. To do this you angle your feet 45 degrees downwards and pull up and back. Try it...
Full power is my recommendation. Enduro a plus for Nottingham streets... Recently moved up here and the roads/paths/cycling infrastructure are garbage compared to what I'm used to. Everything's flooded too. Can't wait till it dries up a bit.

Description Seeing if there is any interest at this price. Very good condition, so little use it has its original TYRES with loads of life left in them! SAINT brakes...
Same as many people above, 3 year old bosch 625 powertube. Always left at 100%, mostly ridden on turbo/emtb, rarely ridden to flat, rarely ridden in serious cold. Ridden in high heat when available. Always kept indoors. Zero noticeable reduction in range from a full charge.
As I am not competing for sponsorships in the fizzy drink bloodsport lottery....I don't need to pay too much attention to it. Somewhere around 30psi give or take with tubes.
A little foam padding on the inside of the battery compartment quiets them a little. In particular a thin patch on the upper rear side of the battery. The original stems are garbage too. Other than that I'm sure you will love it. My cube was the best thing I ever bought.
