I’m 85kg and settled on 83psi on fork and 4 clicks from fast with the 2 spacers removed and it’s feels brilliant to me.

I am going to upgrade to a red zeb tho for my birthday in July. 😁

Anyone able to share their fork settings (stock slx build), still struggling a bit to get things feeling plush.

I'm about 95kg in riding kit, running one volume token, 85psi, and rebound as slow as it can be (which still feels pretty fast to me!).

Feels like the suspension packs up a lot over repeated bumps, like a steep rooty section feels pretty harsh.

Cheers for any advice!
I’m “enjoying” of similar feelings, though I’m 85kg, running without tokens. Pressure, to be honest I can’t remember, I just measure the sag 😬

But I’m considering of changing the fox to something else, maybe Dvo onyx 38 d1 with smashpot. I’m not modifying the stock fork, since this is a “company bike”. Need to be able to return it back to stock setup relatively easily.

Starting to enjoy it now it’s not creaking. Forks bedding in nicely but I’m still tempted with either a damper upgrade or a red zeb 🥱. Got some burgtec stuff coming soon (bar, stem).

Deepcut, Surrey, UK
Another UK 177 SLX owner here (Deepcut. Surrey). Had the bike now since early December and just done over 300 very enjoyable miles on it. Only mods done are retrofit Purion 400 display, ergon saddle, icetech discs and ematrix pads.

Great bike and my first full suspension bike too. So playful and has given me so much more confidence on familiar trails around here.

Only niggles I'm having is the shock bolt wasn't done up tight (rattled like hell) and the bike sits a bit too low for me with constant pedal strikes (90kg weight, 6'1" height on a size large).

Oh and I'm having a constant battle with the seat post - frightened of overtightening the screw but getting the post creeping down inside the frame!

Loving the bike now, really impressed. Done 140 miles so far and yeah it had its niggles at the start with creaking and rear brake not bled and cable catching wheel but now all that’s sorted it’s been brilliant. Climbs amazing and it’s so quiet. A wheel and fork upgrade in the future and that will be it.

I read the 600 and 800 batteries have the same size so it should fit without any adapter, if someone can confirm maybe

Hey all! I'm with a local bike shop order on the SLX 800 build on size Large. I'm 175 cm (5,9 ft) / 80 kg. Been riding Orbea Rise on size Medium. I guess my last bike was very compact and of course much lighter.

Any thoughts on the size Large on this Cube for my height? Have anyone similar experience? I saw that the stem is quite long and bit upwards, so there I can shorthen the reach by 10-20mm. Thanks all and ride hard!!

Hi, I'm 177cm on a size L, it is a bit longer than my previous bikes.

I'm using a 40mm stem, with the steeper head angle setting and a longer fork you will reduce the reach by some mm, towards 465-470mm. You could run shorter stem than me also. I am about to replace my +35mm rise bars with +10mm but with some extra spacers underneath which will also reduce the effective reach by 5mm (this is to allow a macride seat, not because I specifically want to affect the geometry further)

I went for a size M, 178cm. L would have been ok for longer, easier rides/bike packing etc. For trickier trails I wanted nimbler bike.

Thanks a lot for your input! How you find it: agile enough or push-through hard stuff instead? I'm worried about slower pace over rock gardens. I ride my current Orbea quite hard on rocks and downhils but I manage to keep it stable as is.

Thank you very much! That is what I'm wondering too, and bit afraid whenever the L is too big for technical rock gardens on slow pace/climbing. I'm used to riding fast on rough terrain, and even my current M sized Orbea Rise is stable enough. Wondering if Medium would be better still than Large on this Cube.. hard choice.

My gut feeling told me in the shop, after short indoor spin, that L would’ve been too big for my taste. I’ve long hardtail, I’ll use that when I need a freight train.

You can see my video and comments in previous pages: I find it quite agile because of the short chainstay, stiff frame and quite stiff/poppy suspension. I don't find it that plush in rock gardens despite a RS vivid Ultimate Air (high air pressure but low compression settings), which could partially be explained by my previous 2 ebikes being coil sprung and my preference to run the bike with very low sag to minimise pedal strikes completely.

Note my last 2 ebikes were around 450mm reach and I didn't have any issue with those, I specifically wanted to size up, as I liked my 465mm reach YT Capra position the best.
