No one said they are. I have $8k emtb and an $1600 Yamaha gravel bike. No XT or Fox, yet It definitely holds it own for its intended use. China makes shitty cheap motors too. Oh the Chinese have landed on the Moon, recently. Breath.
It ain Yamaha’s 1st rodeo. How good are these? A Brit Nick Sanders rode one around the World. He rode the gravel Walbash RT. I just got one, the auto panel assist rocks!
I see your point. But why phone on the entire time? I can see turning it off and on might become a pain. Anyways try managing you're screens brightness. I have the watch which and mirror certain app features. Good luck
Ther no toque value on the head cap for an ACROS AZF-1035 on my Cube. Watched a video on replacing Acros’s ICR, integrated cable housing. They also didn’t mention any. My LBS agreed. Just tight enough without put much drag on the headset. I also just found out, by my LBS at “Fly Ride” San Diego...

You can also try dimming the screen. The brighter, the power is being used. Change your background from white to dark also will help too. Obviously turn off any apps that refreshing constantly. You can even turn off “cellular” saving it for emergencies/calls.
I’m not having issues, but then...
I almost brought an Orbea. My LBS said I’ll sell it to you, but I wouldn't recommend it. It had to due to support issues they were seeing with Orbea. It was a good bike and not cheap. I did do a google search and found little. That was only in July.
Ended up with a Cube and am very happy with it.
GX is a better quality. Idk you may need that converter above.. OPPS I just translate Cocodrilo post. I’m bad.
“Hello. XD is the connection system, GX, X01, XX1 is the cassette model.”
Agree. OP don’t overthink think it, yet. Wait till you are actually on yours and are learning its particular riding traits. Imho. There is a learning curve esp. for certain situations. Besides, you should be able to adjust multiple parameters.
lol my Cube will rocket your old ass with 750 watts of Bosch. as it does mine up some pretty dang steep larger rock accents. Hence it ain’t the necessarily wattage Watson. My STEREO HYBRID 140 HPC ACTIONTEAM 750 was under 6k American dollars, with 3 yr warranty to boot.
If I was a LBS I’d say...
I do know Cube is number 5 of the top 10 bike companies. With over a billion $$ in sales last year.
Can't go wrong with either. I went with the Cube. I like the better brands that not everybody else is riding. (My acoustic bike is a BMC). I went with a LBS. Funny, they were dropping Orbea from...
Just this week I picked up my Cube Actionteam. Have only done 20 miles or so., yet lovin' it. I was exchanging a Transition Repeater EP8 Carbon GX 2024. My first chose was the Cube TM. Sadly LBS was sold-out.
They happened to have an Actionteam in stock. So I ended up getting it. I prefer...
