Cube Stereo 160 SL or Giant Trance +1

A small SpeedBox 2 and it will be perfect?

I would like to keep the warranty going for the two years as I had a new motor fitted to my present bike under warranty with no quibbles due to very loud bearing noise after 2.5 k miles and the new one is super quiet better than the original.

Very nearly had a change of heart as they had a 140 Action Team in grey and orange,

Cube do an Action Team 140 or was it a 160?

Yes for the Action Team 160 is the plus belle. Le 140 TM j'ai préféré le 2018

The 140 tm is a very good looking bike it's even better looking in the flesh, but £500.00 more than the 160sl I settled on, perhaps next time when Bosch bring out their new motor.

Hi everybody,
Finally picked up the new bike today Cube stereo 160sl and promptly fell off within 200 yards of the dealer. I forgot that I had the dropper right up and when I had to stop at the first roundabout I was a little short in the leg and toppled onto the pavement MOST embarrassing even a bus driver stopped her bus to check I was alright. The bike is fine as I am so no real damage done. The bike colour scheme is as boring as I thought it would be but I will look at changing that. Will post pics when I have brought another camera as mine has gone missing after 2 house moves last year. I will also bore you with my views on it when I have used it off road, at present all I know its a lot different to my hardtail that's after just 5 miles on the road.
I will hope to get out over the weekend after I have applied the Datatag kit.

1000’s of pounds on a bike but no camera in the phone. Lovin’ the priorities

 

[Oldcreaky]

I have just written a long missive about I phones and tech in general and deleted it having realised I got the post all wrong at first sight. I do have a basic phone with a camera which suits me fine. Nearly had to get an I phone when I was close to buying a Giant. I prefer a compact digital camera with the extra functions etc.

is it the norm to p/x bikes when upgrading or better to sell privately...?

Some dealers are giving money off if you donate your old bike to their charity ?.
£350 if you spend over £3500.
