Hi folks! newbie from Nottingham 👍

[Sherwood Stag]

Picked up my first ebike last week, a Cube Stereo Hybrid 140 Actionteam. And I already love it! my brother in Law is totally to blame as he started looking at ebikes a few months ago and got me hooked on one too.

57 and no athlete but I’m looking forward to plenty of forest trails for me to blast round. Can’t wait to get into the Peak District too and be able to put the miles in now I have electric legs

Liking this site too, lots of good threads (and fab pics of the day), cheers all!

Welcome.
your bike is a lovely colour.
Look out for the guided rides that I do at Sherwood Pines from time to time. (free!)

Pretty much the perfect bike for you, the Bosch CX Gen 4 motor is very reliable, and I've done just over 3,000 miles on my 2021 Orbea Wild FS H25 without any major issues. I would recommend that you always keep a couple of spare chains, brake pads and a spare cassette handy and learn how to change them if you don't know how. Also lube your dropper post occasionally, just a tiny bit of 3 in 1 oil around the seal that goes into the seat post. Don't use anything else as it can knacker the seal. Good luck and happy riding.

Thanks Jonmat . All advice is welcomed by me, cheers
