Stumped by choice

[Ged Goring]

Hey all. I’m relatively new to this mtb malarkey. I’m absolutely loving it to the extent that I’m now looking for a emtb. I get to a stage that I’m certain I’m getting a Orbea Rise H15. I’d probably upgrade the tyres and eventually the brakes. Now tho I’ve just spent a very little time in a Cube Stereo Hybrid and loved it. I completely understand that they are 2 very different beasts. To top it of I’ve just seen a Cube Stereo Hybrid ActionTeam and the spec on it and the look of it has completely thrown a spanner in the works. . I’d be very happy to hear peoples real life experience with either. Glad to be here.

Recently bought a 160 action team.
It is amazing.
Nothing else really to say

Very hard to get hold of stock, it's trickling in. Had an email notification the other day that Paul's cycles have a large in stock.

Cube Stereo Hybrid 160 HPC 27.5 750 Electric Mountain Bike 2022 Action Team

Inspired by the challenge of enduro, the new Stereo Hybrid 160 HPC Actionteam 750 packs a powerful punch for long days out in the mountains.

Nice one buddy. Thanks for that

Very different bikes but I think you will struggle to find a bike with better specs than the action team for the money.

Correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't the Orbea have 29" wheels and Cube 27.5" wheels?

Personally I'd only have 29" wheels.

 

[Ged Goring]

Absolutely right. Orbea has 29 in wheels and the Cube has 27.9. Although the Cube does come in a variation with 29 in wheels but it’s a 140 - 160 travel. Not sure that’s enough. The specs on the action team for the money seam fantastic.

 

[Ged Goring]

Actually I think that should have said. The 29 in wheel version has 140 - 150 travel (not 160)

Plus... It looks mint

Looks fabulous.
