Cube Reaction Hybrid Performance 500 - The affordable entry into the world of Cube E-MTBs
The most affordable bike in the series is a great bike for touring in the woods and occasional everyday excursions. The designation "Performance" stands in the Cube Reaction series for the most affordable variants. They have a lot in common with the top models. A high-quality frame combined with a drive from Bosch provides huge driving fun for a small penny. Only if you absolutely need the biggest batteries for long, hilly tours or a particularly powerful motor for very steep climbs should you look at the other models.
The Cube Reaction Hybrid is an e-mountain bike at the bottom of its heart. At the same time, it is perhaps the most versatile platform Cube has to offer. The wide range of models covers all areas of use from sporty after-work laps through the forest, long tours in the mountains but also everyday life in the city. With a few adjustments, you can convert any bike from an everyday vehicle to a sporty forest runabout if your needs should ever change. All models shine with their versatility and comfort. No matter which bike you choose, the motor is always from the Bosch Performance Series with the Bosch Smart System. The reference in the field of e-mountain bikes pushes you powerfully not only in the forest, but in every situation. The total package always includes wide (and therefore comfortable) tires, powerful hydraulic brakes and a suspension fork.
Frame construction
The Cube Reaction Hybrid redefines the basic frame shape of the mountain bike. Hardtails - mountain bikes that have suspension only on the front wheel - are popular because of their easy handling, low maintenance and long life. The Reaction Hybrid also has additional tricks up its sleeve. Size S frames come with smaller 5-Zoll-Laufr wheels to give these bikes a similar ride to the larger sizes with 29-Zoll-Laufr wheels. Anyway, Cube has already invested a lot of effort for years within the framework of the "Agile Ride Geometry" to give their bikes stable straight-line stability and yet playful cornering behavior.
Bosch Smart System
These e-bikes are smart - at least in combination with the "Bosch E-Bike Flow" app on your smartphone. It can now do a lot that you used to need a service appointment for. This starts with very simple statistics such as the driving distance, the battery status or the next upcoming service appointment, but does not stop there. For example, you can adjust the support levels (within the legal limits, of course) or install software updates. Likewise, you can use your phone as an extra-large display, navigate to your destination, record your rides, and sync directly with fitness apps.
